    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Event Free Survival (EFS)
    EFS, assessed up to 48 months, is defined as the date from randomization to the earliest of (a) date of death due to any cause, (b) relapse after CR/CRi, or (c) treatment failure, which is defined as failure to achieve remission within 12 weeks of randomization.
    Percentage of patients who achieved MRD negative CR/CRi
    Percentage of patients who achieved MRD negative CR/CRi at month 3 post randomization
    Overall response rate

    Probability of patients who achieved CR/CRi at month 12
    Probability of achieving CR/CRi based on all response assessments between randomization and month 12. This outcome measure will be based on all randomized patients and the assessment will be up to 48 months (from randomization of the first patient until 12 months after the randomization of the last patient).
    Prevalence of immunogenecity
    Percentage of patients who have anti-tisagenlecleucel antibodies in the serum before randomization
    Incidence of immunogenecity
    Percentage of patients who develop anti-tisagenlecleucel antibodies in the serum after infusion of tisagenlecleucel

    difference in response between patients with immunogenicity and patients without immunogenicity
    Cellular kinetic profile by qPCR
    Summary of qPCR detected tisagenlecleucel transgene concentrations
    Cellular kinetics profile by flow cytometry
    Summary of flow cytometry-detected tisagenlecleucel transgene concentrations
    Relationship between dose and response
    Relationship between the administered dose of tisagenlecleucel and response to treatment (complete response with or without hematological recovery). This assessment will be done for all patients for up to 48 months.
    Relationship between exposure and response
    Describe the relationship between the cellular kinetics of tisagenlecleucel overtime and response.
    Relationship between dose and cellular kinetic
    Describe the relationship between the dose of tisagenlecleucel actually administered and cellular kinetics

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    This trial aims to compare the benefits and risks of tisagenlecleucel to blinatumomab or inotuzumab in adult patients with relapsed or refractory ALL. This trial investigates tisagenlecleucel as an additional treatment option for this patient population with high unmet medical need.

    Model Description
    This is a phase III, open label, multinational, randomized trial. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to Tisagenlecleucel treatment strategy (tisagenlecleucel after optional bridging chemotherapy and lymphodepleting chemotherapy) or control arm treatment strategy (blinatumomab or inotuzumab per investigator's discretion after optional bridging chemotherapy). The randomization will be performed stratifying for the number of prior salvage therapies (0 vs. 1) and prior allogenic stem cell transplant (yes vs. no).
