General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to determine minimal residual disease (MRD) negative rate following blinatumomab treatment in high-risk Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) subjects who are MRD-positive post-autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT).
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
This study was conducted in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) regulations and guidelines, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, and guidelines set forth in 21 CFR Parts 11, 50, 54, 56, and 312.
All subjects provided written informed consent before undergoing any study-related procedures, including screening procedures.
The study protocol, amendments, and the informed consent form (ICF) were reviewed by the Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) and Independent Ethics Committees (IECs). No subjects were recruited into the study and no investigational product (IP) was shipped until the IRB/IEC gave written approval of the protocol and ICF and Amgen received copies of these approvals.

The duration of MRD-negative status, assessed only in participants who achieve MRD-negative status after blinatumomab treatment, was defined as the time when a negative MRD result was first established until documented MRD-positive re-occurrence, disease progression or, death due to any cause. Participants without any of these events at the time of the analysis were to be censored at their last disease assessment date. MRD-negative status was assessed by PET-CT or CT.

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) | ||||||||||||||
End point description |
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence. A serious AE is defined as an AE that is: fatal; life threatening; requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; a congenital anomaly/birth defect; other medically important serious event. TEAEs are events with an onset after the administration of the first dose of blinatumomab treatment through 30 days after the end of blinatumomab treatment. Events were graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE): Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 (severe), Grade 4 (life-threatening), Grade 5 (death).

Date |
Amendment |
||
23 May 2017 |
This protocol is being amended to:
• Include stopping rules for excessive toxicity, define dose limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluable subjects, and add interim analyses to review DLT rate
• Clarify timing and purpose of MRD tests that occur before treatment and on cycle 1 day 1
• Remove language related to sensitivity analysis performed on the MRD-negative rate at the end of cycle 1 of blinatumomab
• Make administrative and editorial updates (this includes an update to the Schedule of Assessments table to re-add 2 PET assessments that were mistakenly deleted during publication of original protocol) |
||
24 Aug 2017 |
This protocol is being amended to:
• include stopping rules for disease progression.
• add hepatitis serology and human immunodeficiency virus testing.
• add benefit/risk assessment language.
• make administrative and editorial updates. |
||
18 Jul 2018 |
This protocol is being amended to:
• Increase the screening window to 28 days.
• Clarify when pathology tumor block/slides should be collected and MRD tests should be performed during screening.
• Clarify that the MRD plasma sample needs to be drawn after the post aHSCT PET-CT scan.
• Clarify that subjects will be excluded from receiving blinatumomab if there is evidence of central nervous system (CNS) involvement with DLBCL at disease evaluation prior to starting blinatumomab.
• Clarify that grade 4 hematologic toxicity and grade 4 laboratory abnormalities lasting
≥ 7 days exclude lymphopenia. This lymphopenia is reported to last for 6 months or as long as a year after therapy completion (Chiappella et al, 2017; Coffier, 2007; Plosker and Figgitt, 2003). Lymphopenia is also a known adverse event with blinatumomab that does resolve after the therapy is completed. Lymphopenia is not an immediately life-threatening threatening event, is treated well with supportive care, and reverses after completion of R-chemotherapy and blinatumomab infusion.
• Clarify when vital signs will be obtained for hospitalized subjects versus subjects in the outpatient clinic.
• Make administrative and editorial updates. |
