E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
CLL is a type of cancer that starts from cells that become certain white blood cells (called lymphocytes) in the bone marrow. The cancer cells start in the bone marrow but then go into the blood. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To establish that the combination of ublituximab + umbralisib is superior to the combination of obinutuzumab + chlorambucil as measured by Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in patients with CLL |

To establish that the combination of ublituximab + umbralisib provides clinical benefit over both ublituximab alone and umbralisib alone.
To evaluate and compare the combination of ublituximab + umbralisib to the combination of obinutuzumab + chlorambucil with respect to overall response rate in patients with CLL
To assess safety, tolerability and other efficacy outcomes.
To determine the pharmacokinetics and any potential drug-drug interactions of ublituximab and umbralisib in combination.

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for participation in this study: 1.

Autoimmune anemia and/or thrombocytopenia that is poorly responsive to corticosteroids or other standard therapy, or f. Constitutional symptoms, defined as any one or more of the following disease-related symptoms or signs occurring in the absence of evidence of infection: i. Unintentional weight loss of ≥10% within the previous 6 months, or ii. Significant fatigue (≥ Grade 2), or iii. Fevers >100.5°F or 38.0°C for ≥2 weeks, or iv. Night sweats for >1 month. 2.

Total bilirubin ≤1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). c. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤2.5 x ULN if no liver involvement or ≤5 x the ULN if known liver involvement. d. Calculated creatinine clearance >30 mL/min (as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula). 3. Presence of measurable lymphadenopathy, defined as the presence of ≥ 1 nodal lesion that measures ≥ 2.0 cm in the longest diameter (LD) and ≥ 1.0 cm in the longest perpendicular diameter (LPD) as assessed by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 4. ECOG performance status ≤ 2. 5. Male or female ≥ 18 years of age. 6. Ability to swallow and retain oral medication. 7. Female subjects who are not of child-bearing potential (see Appendix B- Contraceptive Guidelines and Pregnancy), and female subjects of child-bearing potential who have a negative serum pregnancy test within 3 days prior to Cycle 1, Day 1. Female subjects of child-bearing potential, and male partners must consent to use a medically acceptable method of contraception throughout the study period and for 4 months after the last dose of ublituximab or TGR-1202, or 18 months after the last dose of obinutuzumab or at least 4 weeks after the last dose of chlorambucil. 8. Willingness and ability to comply with trial and follow-up procedures and give written informed consent.

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Subjects receiving cancer therapy (i.e., chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy, hormonal therapy, surgery and/or tumor embolization) or any investigational drug within 21 days of Cycle 1/Day 1 (contact sponsor for < 21- day washout period requests). a. Corticosteroid therapy started at least 7 days prior to Cycle 1/Day 1 (prednisone ≤10 mg daily or equivalent) is allowed as clinically warranted. Topical or inhaled corticosteroids are permitted. 2. Autologous hematologic stem cell transplant within 3 months of study entry. Prior Allogeneic hematologic stem cell transplant is excluded. 3. Evidence of chronic active Hepatitis B (HBV, not including subjects with prior hepatitis B vaccination; or positive serum Hepatitis B antibody) or chronic active Hepatitis C infection (HCV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), or known history of HIV. If HBc antibody, HCV antibody or CMV is positive the subject must be evaluated for the presence of HBV, HCV, or CMV by PCR - See Appendix D. 4. Known histological transformation from CLL to an aggressive lymphoma (i.e. Richter’s transformation). 5. Prior exposure to idelalisib (CAL-101), duvelisib (IPI-145), ACP-319, or any drug that specifically inhibits phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K). 6. Subjects who have received prior therapy with obinutuzumab. Subjects who are refractory to prior chlorambucil (defined as disease progression while receiving or within 6 months of completion of a chlorambucil based regimen). 7. Evidence of ongoing systemic bacterial, fungal or viral infection, except localized fungal infections of skin or nails. NOTE: Subjects may be receiving prophylactic antiviral or antibacterial therapies at investigator discretion. Use of anti-pneumocystis and antiviral prophylaxis is required for subjects on TGR-1202 arms. 8. Live virus vaccines within 4 weeks prior to or during obinutuzumab or ublituximab therapy. 9. History of anaphylaxis (excluding infusion related reactions) in association with previous anti-CD20 administration. 10. Any severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions or other conditions that could affect their participation in the study such as: a.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Progression-free survival (PFS) PFS is defined as the interval from randomization to the earlier of the first documentation of definitive disease progression or death from any cause. Definitive disease progression based on standard criteria (Hallek et al. 2008) and occurring for any reason (i.e., increasing lymphadenopathy, organomegaly or bone marrow involvement; decreasing platelet count, hemoglobin, or neutrophil count; or worsening of disease-related symptoms) other than lymphocytosis.
Overall response rate (ORR) ORR is defined as sum of CR, CRi, PR and nPR rates.
Complete Response (CR) Rate CR rate is defined as the proportion of patients who achieve a CR or CRi.
Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negativity Rate MRD negativity rate is defined as the proportion of patients who are MRD negative.
Duration of response (DOR) DOR is defined as the interval from the first documentation of CR, CRi, PR or nPR to the earlier of the first documentation of definitive disease progression or death from any cause.
Overall Survival (OS) OS is defined as the interval from randomization to death from any cause.
