A Study of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) Inhibitor Ibrutinib in Participants With Treatment-naive Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
- Registration Number
- NCT02556892
- Lead Sponsor
- Janssen Pharmaceutical K.K.
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of Ibrutinib in Japanese participants with treatment-naive chronic lymphocytic leukemia ( CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).
- Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1, open-label and multicenter study. The study consists of a Screening Phase (28 days prior to the first administration of the study drug), Treatment Phase (time when the first dose of ibrutinib is administered until disease progression, the investigator no longer considers the treatment to be tolerable, or the participant meets any one of the discontinuation criteria) and Follow-up Phase (end of the last dose of study drug until 30 days after the last dose of study drug or the start of subsequent anti-CLL/SLL therapy, whichever comes first). Participants will be instructed to take 3 capsules of ibrutinib (at a dose of 420 mg) orally once daily starting at Cycle 1, Day 1. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Intensity of Adverse Events (AEs) Screening up to follow-up phase (maximum of 24 months) An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Intensity of Adverse Events will be assessed using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE).
Incidence of Adverse Events Screening up to follow-up phase (maximum of 24 months) An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Incidence was defined as the number of participants who experienced an adverse event within their period of participation in this study. Incidence of adverse events will be assessed using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to Response Days 1 of cycles 3,5,7 and every odd numbered cycle thereafter until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or death whichever is first; expected average of 24 months Time to response is defined as the time from the initial treatment until the first documented evidence of CR or PR.
Overall Response Rate (Complete Response [CR] and Partial Response [PR]) Days 1 of cycles 3,5,7 and every odd numbered cycle thereafter until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or death whichever is first; expected average of 24 months Tumor response will be evaluated according to the Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and the International Working Group (IWG) Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma, respectively.
