About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for B-cell Adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia focused on measuring acute lymphoblastic leukemia, blinatumomab, minimal residual disease, stem cell transplant

Eligibility Criteria

1 Year - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Testing Phase of Trial:

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Pre-B-ALL in complete remission (CR), <5% blasts on most recent bone marrow aspirate determined by morphologic assessment, with an intention to proceed to allogeneic HSCT. Eligible participants can be in 1st CR or greater. Presence of detectable MRD by flow cytometry or other techniques in patients that are in morphologic remission prior to transplant is permitted.
  • Detectable MRD measured by flow cytometry or other molecular techniques is acceptable for enrollment in patients with <5% blasts.
  • Patients with either Philadelphia chromosome positive or negative B-ALL are eligible
  • Documented expression of CD19 on the lymphoblast population as measured by flow-cytometry if patient has received prior CD19-directed therapy.
  • Eligibility for HSCT along with conditioning regimen and donor selection will be determined according to the treating centre's policy.
  • Patients must be age ≥1 years and have a baseline performance status of ECOG ≤ 2 (adult) or Lansky ≥ 50% (pediatric).
  • Patient with chronic hepatitis B (Hep B surface antigen or Hep B Core antibody reactive) are eligible if they are receiving treatment to prevent reactivation (e.g. lamivudine, tenofovir) and have undetectable serum Hepatitis B DNA
  • Patients (or legally acceptable designate) must provide written consent.
  • Female patients of childbearing potential should be willing to use 2 methods of birth control or be surgically sterile, or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study from the time of informed consent signature date until 3 months after completion of study treatment.

Treatment Phase of Trial:

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Detectable MRD ≥ 10^-4 leukemic cells/TNC on a bone marrow aspirate done on day +56, +100, +180 or day +270.
  • Morphologic remission on bone marrow from same date (on day +56, +100, +180 or day +270)
  • Patients must be age ≥1 years and have a baseline performance status of ECOG ≤ 2 (adult) or Lansky ≥ 50% (pediatric) documented within 7 days of enrollment.
  • Patients with either Philadelphia chromosome positive or negative B-ALL are eligible
  • Documented expression of CD19 on the lymphoblast population as measured by flow-cytometry if patient has received prior CD19-directed therapy.
  • Patient with chronic hepatitis B (Hep B surface antigen or Hep B Core antibody reactive) are eligible if they are receiving treatment to prevent reactivation (e.g. lamivudine, tenofovir) and have undetectable serum Hepatitis B DNA
  • Adequate organ, liver and renal function including: Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), eGFR >30 mL/min/1.73 m, Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN, Serum lipase ≤ 1.5 x ULN
  • Patients (or legally acceptable designate) must provide written consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Active acute GVHD (grade II-IV) or active moderate-severe chronic GVHD (NIH Grade) at the time of MRD detection are ineligible treatment phase until GVHD resolves or quiescent as determined by the treating physician.
  • Uncontrolled infection until resolved.
  • Chronic infection with Hepatitis C. Previously treated Hepatitis C with undetectable Hepatitis C RNA for six months or longer is acceptable.
  • HIV 1/2 Infection.
  • Extramedullary or CNS disease or the time of MRD detection.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Blinatumomab Treatment

Arm Description

Eligible patients with detectable MRD will taper immunosuppressive medications, if applicable, and undergo treatment with blinatumomab. The duration of each cycle of blinatumomab treatment is 6 weeks. Adult and pediatric patients will be treated for 4 weeks followed by a 2-week treatment free period. Patients may receive up to 4 cycles total of blinatumomab therapy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

MRD Response
To determine the proportion of patients with MRD response, defined as negative MRD as measured by flow cytometry, after 1 cycle of blinatumomab.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Safety and Tolerability
Safety of delivering blinatumomab will be monitored early during the post-transplant course. Safety will be evaluated by the onset of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and by documentation of the incidence and severity of acute and chronic graft versus host disease (GvHD).
Survival
Clinically relevant survival outcomes for patients enrolled onto the study including: 2-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) and event free-survival (EFS) and median OS.
Incidence of MRD Post HSCT
To determine the proportion of patients developing detectable MRD following HSCT for B-ALL as measured by flow cytometry.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single arm, open label, multi-centre phase II study using blinatumomab for treatment of detectable minimal residual disease (MRD) in the first year following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for patients with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). The study has 2 phases: 1. MRD testing phase and 2. blinatumomab treatment phase. Participants with B-ALL planning for HSCT meeting other eligibility criteria will be enrolled onto the MRD testing phase, which will involve centralized MRD testing of bone marrow aspirate samples on day +56, +100, +180, +270 following HSCT. Participants with detectable MRD ≥10^-4 leukemic cells/total nucleated cells will enroll onto the treatment phase. Blinatumomab treatment will be started following detection of MRD after 7 to 42 days from enrollment onto the treatment phase to allow for initiation of taper of immunosuppressive medications.
