Efficacy and Safety of Oral Azacitidine (CC-486) Compared to Investigator's Choice Therapy in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Angioimmunoblastic T Cell Lymphoma
Japan93 participantsStarted 2018-11-06
Plain-language summary
This study is a multicentric, open-label, randomized phase 3 trial. The study will be conducted in select countries in Europe and South Korea sponsored by LYSARC and in Japan sponsored by Celgene. There will be a combined enrollment target of 86 randomized patients, with approximately 14 randomized patients from Japan.
The enrollment to the randomized study will start at European sites in parallel to a safety run-in part in Japan. A safety run-in will be conducted to confirm the tolerability of oral azacitidine at doses of 100 mg and 200 mg QD in Asian patients. Once oral azacitidine at 200 mg QD is confirmed as tolerable, Asian patients from Japan and South Korea will start to be randomized into the main study. Additional patients (non-randomized) are anticipated to enroll to the safety run-in.

Inclusion criteria
. Patient is ≥ 18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
. Patient must understand and voluntarily sign an ICF prior to any study-specific assessments/procedures being conducted.
. Patient is willing and able to adhere to the study visit schedule and other protocol requirements
. Patient had local diagnosed peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) with T-follicular helper (TFH) phenotype according to the criteria of the latest WHO classification based on a surgical lymph node biopsy or needle core biopsy including any one of
. ECOG performance status 0 to 3
. Relapsed (after partial or complete response) or refractory AITL after at least one line of systemic therapy (there is no mandatory resting period after the previous treatment as long as the biochemistry and hematology labs meet the inclusion criteria as below.)
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?

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.
What they're measuring
1
Progression Free Survival (PFS) Based on Local Assessment
Timeframe: From randomization up to documented disease progression or death, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 15 months)
. Clinical evidence of central nervous system(CNS) involvement by lymphoma. Patients with suspicion of CNS involvement must undergo neurologic evaluation and CT/MRI of head and lumbar puncture to exclude CNS disease.
. Any significant medical conditions, laboratory abnormality or psychiatric illness likely to interfere with participation in this clinical study (according to the investigator's decision)
. Uncontrolled systemic fungal, bacterial, or viral infection (defined as ongoing signs/symptoms related to the infection without improvement despite appropriate antibiotics, antiviral therapy, and/or other treatment)
. Known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection, or evidence of active Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection defined as:
. Impaired renal function (calculated MDRD or Cockcroft-Gault Creatinine Clearance \< 30 ml/min) or impaired liver function tests (Serum total bilirubin level \> 2.0 mg/dl \[34 μmol/L\] (except in case of Gilbert's Syndrome, or documented liver or pancreatic involvement by lymphoma), Serum transaminases (AST or ALT) \> 3 upper normal limits) unless they are related to the lymphoma.
. Active malignancy other than the one treated in this research. Prior history of malignancies, other than low risk MDS or CMML (with less than 5% blasts in bone marrow), unless the patient has been free of the disease for ≥ 3 years. However, patients with the following history/concurrent conditions are allowed:
