A Study of Blinatumomab in Patients With Pre B-cell ALL and B-cell NHL as Post-allo-HSCT Remission Maintenance
United States44 participantsStarted 2017-09-05
Plain-language summary
The investigators primary objective is to determine the safety and toxicity of incorporating blinatumomab into the post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) maintenance setting for patients with CD19+-B-cell malignancies (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia \[ALL\], Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma \[NHL\]).

Inclusion criteria
. Pre-B ALL, low and high grade NHL who underwent an alloHSCT using posttransplant CY GVHD prophylaxis (Pt-Cy alone or combination with MMF/tacrolimus or sirolimus) as follows:
. Patients should be at least 60 but not more than 180 days from transplant with documented count recovery (ANC \>1 x109/L, and non-transfused platelets \>30x109/L) and no evidence of disease progression
. ECOG performance status 0-2
. Ability to give informed consent
. In agreement to use an effective barrier method of birth control (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) to avoid pregnancy during the study and for a minimum of 30 days after study treatment, for all male and female patients who are fertile

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

. Patients may have received any number of prior regimens to achieve remission. Patients previously treated with blinatumomab will be eligible as long as they did not experience unacceptable toxicities with prior blinatumomab administration. If patient was refractory (no response) to blinatumomab in the past, patient will be eligible if there was no evidence of CD19 loss on leukemia cells.
Exclusion criteria
. Lack of engraftment (less than 85% donor DNA in bone marrow or peripheral blood after allogeneic HSCT).
. Active or untreated disease in central nervous system or testes
. Patient has received chemotherapy or radiotherapy (with the exception of intrathecal chemotherapy) within 2 weeks of starting blinatumomab. Patient could receive intrathecal prophylactic chemotherapy within a week prior to starting blinatumomab.
. Patients with active uncontrolled infection or uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
. Patients with prior history of severe (grade 3 or 4) acute GVHD or active severe chronic GVHD even if resolved will not be eligible. Patients with history of active acute GVHD (grade 2) and active moderate chronic GVHD who required steroids for the treatment of GVHD will need to be off steroids for at least 4 weeks prior to treatment start. (Topical steroids or physiologic adrenal replacement steroid doses are allowed).
. Patients requiring calcineurin inhibitors (i.e. tacrolimus or sirolimus) or other systemic immunosuppressants (cyclosporine (CNI); methotrexate or similar) for GVHD prophylaxis or treatment within 4 weeks prior to treatment start.
. Inadequate end organ function defined as AST, ALT, and alkaline phosphatase \> 3X ULN, bilirubin \>=1.5X ULN, or creatinine \>=2 mg/dL
. Patients with Ph-positive ALL who are eligible for post-transplant TKI maintenance based on a demonstrated sensitivity to TKIs pre-transplant (patients with known intolerance or resistance to TKI will be eligible)
