A Phase 2 Trial of GlOfitamab anD pIrtobrutinib in Mantle Cell Lymphoma Patients With Prior BTK Inhibitor Exposure.

Phase 2

Recruiting

• Conditions: Mantle Cell Lymphoma; Mantle Cell Lymphoma Refractory
• Interventions: Drug: Glofitamab; Drug: Pirtobrutinib; Drug: Obinutuzumab; Drug: Tocilizumab

• Registration Number: NCT05833763
• Lead Sponsor: Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and response of combining Pirtobrutinib and Glofitimab in patients with relapsed MCL. The main question it aims to answer are:

* Will additive and synergistic effects be observed when using a combination of glofitamab and pirtobrutinib?

* Will this combination be safe and lead to high complete- and remission rates with no residual disease?

Pirtobrutinib will be given to all participants as an oral tablet for the duration of the entire study. Participants will receive other treatment in 3 phases:

1. Treatment Ramp-Up

1. Treatment with Obinutuzumab by Intravenous (IV)

2. An initial dose level of Glofitamab will evaluate step-up dosing. If excessive adverse events are observed, a lower initial dose will be used.

2. Fixed course combination phase: Treatment with Glofitamab by IV

3. Maintenance phase: Glofitamab is discontinued. 200mg oral daily

Detailed Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and response of combination Pirtobrutinib and Glofitimab in patients with relapsed/refractory MCL. The main question it aims to answer are:

* Will additive and synergistic effects be observed when using a combination of glofitamab and pirtobrutinib?

* Will this combination be safe and lead to high complete- and MRD-negative remission rates?

Participants will receive treatment based on 21 day cycles. This study design involves 3 phases:

1. Treatment Ramp-Up

1. Pre-Phase (7 days): Obinutuzumab (1000mg) will be administered intravenously (IV) on D-7 and a second dose administered between Day 6 and Day 1.

2. Cycle 1: An initial dose level of Glofitamab will evaluate step-up dosing. If excessive dose-limiting toxicity is observed, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS), a lower initial dose of 1.25mg of glofitamab will be evaluated at "dose level -1".

i. Dose level 1 (14 days):

* 2.5mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 1

* 10mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 8 ii. Dose level -1 (21 days):

* 1.25mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 2

* 2.5mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 8

* 10mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 15 c. Cycle 2 (21 days): 30mg Glofitamab by IV on Day 1

2. Fixed course combination phase: Cycles 3-12 (21 days per cycle): 30mg of Glofitamab by IV on day 1

3. Maintenance phase: Cycles 13+ (21 days per cycle): Glofitamab discontinued. 200mg oral daily

Following six cycles (or approximately 18 weeks following first treatment). Cycle 1 is 14 days in duration and cycles 2 to 6 are 21 days in duration.	Determined by the complete response (CR) rate according to Lugano criteria

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Overall response rates	At the end of combination therapy (cycle 12). Cycle 1 is 14 days in duration and cycles 2 to 12 are 21 days in duration.	Using the Lugano criteria
Duration of response	Patient's will be followed assessed until the last patient registered completes 5 years of follow up.	Defined as the time from registration to date of death from any cause. Patients who have not died by the study close-out date will be censored at their last visit. Patients who are lost to follow-up before the close-out date and who are not known to have died will be censored at the date they were last known to be alive

Complete response rate using the Lugano Criteria for response assessment at end of 12 cycles of Glofitamab	When all patients have completed 12 cycles of Glofitamab. Cycle 1 is 14 days in duration and cycles 2 to 12 are 21 days in duration.	Using the Lugano Criteria for response assessment
Assessment of adverse events (eg. fatigue, diarrhoea, confusion, nausea, constipation, anaemia, dyspnoea)	Analysis of the adverse events will be completed in line with the primary and secondary endpoints; When all patients have completed 6 cycles of protocol treatment, when all patients have completed 12 cycles of treatment.	Incidence, nature and severity of adverse events are graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE).
Absence of minimal residual disease (MRD)	Following six cycles and 12 cycles of combination treatment. Cycle 1 is 14 days in duration and cycles 2 to 12 are 21 days in duration.	Measured by aggregate measure of peripheral blood and/or bone marrow flow cytometry, PCR and ctDNA
Progression-free survival (PFS)	Progression is measured from the date of registration to the date of first progression at any site or date of death due to any cause. Patients will be followed assessed until the last patient registered completes 5 years of follow up.	Determined based on the modified Lugano criteria.
