A Phase 3 Randomized Trial of Inotuzumab Ozogamicin (IND#:133494, NSC#: 772518) for Newly Diagnosed High-Risk B-ALL; Risk-Adapted Post-Induction Therapy for High-Risk B-ALL, Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia, and Disseminated B-LLy

Summary

This phase III trial studies whether inotuzumab ozogamicin added to post-induction chemotherapy and immunotherapy (chemo-immunotherapy) for patients with High-Risk B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) improves outcomes. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, which is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets on the surface of cells. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody that is linked to a type of chemotherapy called calicheamicin. Inotuzumab attaches to cancer cells by binding to the CD22 protein on the surface of the cancer cell and delivering calicheamicin inside the cells to kill them. Other drugs used in the chemotherapy regimen, such as cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, dexamethasone, doxorubicin, daunorubicin, methotrexate, leucovorin, mercaptopurine, prednisone, thioguanine, vincristine, and pegaspargase or calaspargase pegol work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Blinatumomab is a specialized type of monoclonal antibody known as a bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE). It works by simultaneously binding to CD19 on cancer cells and CD3 on normal immune cells, bringing them together to destroy leukemia cells. Blinatumomab is a standard part of chemo-immunotherapy treatment for B-ALL. This trial also studies the outcomes of patients with mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), and B-lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LLy) when treated with ALL therapy without inotuzumab ozogamicin or blinatumomab. The overall goal of this study is to understand if adding inotuzumab ozogamicin to standard of care chemo-immunotherapy maintains or improves outcomes in High Risk B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (HR B-ALL). The first part of the study includes the first phase of therapy: Induction. This part will collect information on the leukemia, as well as the effects of the initial treatment, to classify patients into post-induction treatment groups. On the second part of this study, patients with HR B-ALL will receive the remainder of the chemotherapy cycles (consolidation, blinatumomab block 1, interim maintenance 1, blinatumomab block 2, delayed intensification, interim maintenance 2, maintenance), with some patients randomized to receive inotuzumab. The patients that receive inotuzumab will not receive part of consolidation or part of delayed intensification. Other aims of this study include evaluating 1) side effects of treatment using patient-reported outcomes and health-related quality of life, 2) the best ways to help patients adhere to oral chemotherapy regimens, 3) the relationship between levels of inotuzumab ozogamicin in the blood and side effects, 4) the impact of chemo-immunotherapy on the immune system and risk of infection, and 5) the impact of social determinants of health on outcomes. Finally, this study will be the first to track the outcomes of subjects with disseminated B-cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-LLy) or Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia (MPAL) when treated with B-ALL chemotherapy.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare in a randomized manner the post-induction 5-year event-free survival (EFS) for children and young adults with High Risk (HR) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) treated with a modified Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster (mBFM) chemo-immunotherapy backbone that includes blinatumomab and replaces Consolidation Part 2 and Delayed Intensification (DI) Part 2 with two blocks of inotuzumab ozogamicin, versus those treated with a full mBFM chemo-immunotherapy backbone that includes blinatumomab and retains Consolidation Part 2 and DI Part 2 without the addition of inotuzumab ozogamicin. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To describe the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) for a favorable risk subset of National Cancer Institute (NCI) HR B-ALL (HR-Fav) when treated with mBFM chemotherapy with a single high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) interim maintenance (IM) phase and treatment duration of 2 years from the start of IM regardless of sex. (Pre-Amendment #7B) II. To determine the toxicity and tolerability of inotuzumab ozogamicin integrated into the mBFM chemotherapy backbone in HR B-ALL, including toxicity experienced during phases of therapy subsequent to inotuzumab ozogamicin. III. To describe the 5-year event-free survival (EFS) for patients with mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) receiving mBFM HR B-ALL therapy that includes a second IM phase with Capizzi intravenous (IV) methotrexate without leucovorin rescue plus pegaspargase or calaspargase pegol (C-MTX). IV. To describe the 5-year EFS for patients with disseminated (Murphy stage III-IV) B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LLy) receiving mBFM HR B-ALL therapy that includes a second IM phase with C-MTX. V. To compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) for randomized HR B-ALL patients by study arm at two defined time points: Consolidation Part 2 Day 43 (Arm D)/inotuzumab ozogamicin Block 1 Day 15 (Arm E) and day 1 of IM2 (Arms D and E). VI. To compare symptomatic adverse events (AEs) for patients with HR B-ALL by study arm using Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) Measures. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. To describe the 5-year overall survival (OS) and cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) for randomized patients with HR B-ALL. II. To describe the therapy administered, disease response, and survival outcomes of patients with MPAL who come off protocol therapy due to poor disease response to ALL therapy either during Induction, at end of induction (EOI), or at end of consolidation (EOC). III. To define the prevalence and significance of minimal marrow disease (MMD) at diagnosis and bone marrow minimal residual disease (MRD) at EOI in disseminated B-LLy. IV. To determine the impact of proposed adherence-enhancing interventions on adherence to oral mercaptopurine in patients with ALL. V. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of inotuzumab ozogamicin when administered in the setting of first remission in pediatric and young adult patients with HR B-ALL. VI. To explore associations between family-reported social determinants of health and survival outcomes, toxicities, and blinatumomab patterns of delivery. VII. To describe both the short- and long-term impact of chemo-immunotherapy on measures of immune function and infectious toxicities.
