MabionCD20 Compared to MabThera in Lymphoma Patients

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02617485
Lead Sponsor
Mabion SA
Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to demonstrate the high level of biosimilarity between MabionCD20 (MABION SA) and the reference product: MabThera (rituximab by Hoffman-La Roche) in patients with CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Detailed Description

Patients who meet criteria for participation in this study receive 8 intravenous infusions of MabionCD20® or MabThera® 21 days interval in combination with standard dosage regimen of CHOP. The duration of the study is 12 months. The treatment and observation period will last 26 weeks starting from Day 1, until Week 26 - one month after last IMP infusion.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Day 1 to Week 4 (AUC[1-4])Baseline to Week 4

Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero (Day 1) to final time point measured after the first administration (Week 1) until Week 4 (AUC(W1-W4)). PK blood samples for this endpoint were drawn at Day 1 (before and after the first infusion), Day 8 ± 1 (7 days after first infusion), Day 15 ± 1 (14 days after first infusion), Day 22 ± 2 (before and after completion of the second infusion).

Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Week 13 to Week 26 (AUC[W13-W26])Week 13 to Week 26

Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to final time point measured from Week 13 until Week 26 (AUC\[W13-W26\]). PK blood samples for this endpoint were drawn at Day 85 ± 4 (before and after completion of the fifth infusion), Day 106 ± 4 (before and after completion of sixth infusion), Day 127 ± 4 (before and after completion of the seventh infusion), Day 148 ± 4 (before and after completion of the eight infusion), Day 155 ± 4 (one week after last infusion) and Day 176 ± 4 (one month after last infusion).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Kel (Post 5th and 8th Infusions)Week 13 (5th infusion) and Week 22 (8th infusion)

Elimination Rate Constant at steady stade after the 5th and 8th infusions.

CLss (Post 5th and 8th Infusions)Week 13 to Week 16 and Week 22 to Week 26

Clearance at steady state after the 5th and 8th infusions.

Ctrough (Before 8th Infusion)Week 22

Trough serum concentration measured at the end of a dosing interval at steady state, taken directly before eighth infusion.

Efficacy Assessment at Week 26Week 26

An efficacy assessment was made after 8 treatment cycles (at Week 26) based on tumour responses classified according to the International Workshop to Standardize Response Criteria for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas (Cheson et al. 1999). Response was assessed based on clinical, radiologic (CT scan) and pathologic (bone marrow) criteria. Possible efficacy responses were: complete response, partial response, stable disease, and progressive disease. Efficacy reported here includes all patients included in the ITT set.

Adverse Eventsfrom baseline to Week 46

Percentage of patients with at least one AE in a given category. Data from the entire follow-up are included (Period 1 and Period 2).

T1/2 (Post 5th and 8th Infusions)Week 13 to Week 16 and Week 22 to Week 26

Elimination half-life at steady state after the 5th and 8th infusions.

Cmax (Post 5th and 8th Infusion)Week 13 (5th infusion) and Week 22 (8th infusion)

Maximum serum drug concentration (Cmax) at steady state after the 5th and 8th infusions.

AUC (W1-W26)Week 1 until Week 26

Area under the serum concentration-time curve measured after the first administration (Week 1) until Week 26 (AUC(1-26))

AUC (W1-W26) B-cellbaseline to Week 26

Area under the serum concentration-time curve of CD19+ B cell counts, measured from the first administration to the final time point at Week 26 (AUC(1-26) B-cell).
