Brief Summary
HEM-iSMART is a master protocol which investigates multiple investigational medicinal products in children, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) ALL and LBL. Sub-protocol C is a phase I/II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of ruxolitinib and venetoclax in combination with dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide and cytarabine in children and AYA with R/R ped ALL/LBL whose tumor present with alterations in the IL7R/JAK-STAT pathway.
Detailed Description
HEM-iSMART is a master protocol with sub-protocols. The overarching objective is that introducing targeted therapy using a biomarker driven approach for treatment stratification may improve the outcome of children with R/R acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) It is characterized by a shared framework that allows for the investigation of multiple IMPs and generate pivotal safety and efficacy evidence within the sub-protocols to establish and define the benefits and risks of new treatments for children with R/R leukemia. Sub-Protocol C within HEM-iSMART, is a phase I/II, multicenter, international, open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of ruxolitinib with venetoclax in combination with dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide and cytarabine in children, adolescents and young with R/R ALL and LBL. Patients with alterations in the IL-7R and/or JAK-STAT signaling pathways will be eligible for sub-protocol C.

Yes
IPD Sharing Plan Description
All individual participant data will be used to generate a publication.
IPD Sharing Time Frame
SRs will also be provided at the end of specific sub-protocols or specific phases of a sub-protocol, and when needed for regulatory purposes. Examples for generating 'primary CSRs' may include: After Last Patient Last Visit (LPLV) in a study having ORR as endpoint. After the RP2D is determined in a Phase I part of a given sub-protocol. After the follow-up of a specific sub-protocol is completed.
