Study of LOXO-305 (Pirtobrutinib) Versus Investigator's Choice (Idelalisib Plus Rituximab or Bendamustine Plus Rituximab) in Patients With Previously Treated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)

Phase 3

Conditions
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04666038
Lead Sponsor
Loxo Oncology, Inc.
Brief Summary

This is a study for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have previously received treatment with at least a BTK inhibitor. The main purpose is to compare LOXO-305 to idelalisib plus rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab. Participation could last up to four years, and possibly longer, if the disease does not progress.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 3 global, randomized, open-label study comparing LOXO-305 (Arm A) to investigator's choice of either idelalisib plus rituximab or bendamustine plus rituximab (Arm B) in CLL/SLL patients who have been treated with at least a covalent BTK inhibitor (BTKi). Patients may have discontinued the prior covalent BTKi due to disease progression (PD) or intolerance. Patients who have received venetoclax are eligible for the study. Eligible patients will be randomized in 1:1 to Arm A or Arm B.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Confirmed diagnosis of CLL/SLL requiring therapy as defined by iwCLL 2018 criteria.
  • Previously treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0-2.
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 × 10^9/L without granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor support, or ≥ 0.50 × 10^9/L in patients with documented bone marrow involvement considered to impair hematopoiesis. Granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor support is permitted in patients with documented bone marrow involvement.
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL or ≥ 6 g/dL in patients with documented bone marrow involvement considered to impair hematopoiesis. Transfusion support is permitted in patients with bone marrow involvement.
  • Platelets ≥ 50 × 10^9/L. If an investigator has chosen bendamustine/rituximab as the Arm B treatment, platelets must be ≥ 75 × 10^9/L. Patients may enroll below these thresholds if the Investigator determines the cytopenia is related to bone marrow involvement considered to impair hematopoiesis. Patients with a platelet count < 30 x 10^9/L are excluded.

  • Patients with the following hypersensitivity:

    1. Known hypersensitivity, including anaphylaxis, to any component or excipient of LOXO-305.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-free Survival (PFS) Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC)Randomization to Disease Progression or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 29 Months)

PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause, as evaluated by an IRC according to International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) 2018.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to Next Treatment (TTNT)Randomization to Subsequent Anticancer Therapy, Therapy of Pirtobrutinib or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 36 Months)

TTNT was defined as time from the date of randomization to the date of initiation of the subsequent anticancer therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), therapy of pirtobrutinib for Arm B patients, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

Event Free Survival (EFS)Randomization to Disease Progression, Subsequent Anticancer Therapy, Unacceptable Toxicity Leading to Treatment Discontinuation, or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 36 Months)

EFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of:

* Documented disease progression per iwCLL 2018 criteria as assessed by Investigator; or

* Initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy for CLL/SLL; or

* Unacceptable toxicity leading to treatment discontinuation as assessed by the Investigator; or

* Death (due to any cause).

Percentage of Participants With Overall Response Rate (ORR) Assessed by InvestigatorRandomization to Subsequent Anticancer Therapy, Disease Progression or Death Due to Any Cause (Up to 36 Months)

ORR according to investigator-assessed best overall response (BOR) based on iwCLL 2018 is defined as the number of participants who achieve a BOR of complete response (CR), complete response with incomplete bone marrow recovery (CRi), nodular partial response (nPR) or partial response (PR) at or before the initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy divided by the total number of participants randomized to each treatment arm.

Time to Worsening (TTW) of CLL/SLL Related SymptomsBaseline up to Week 25 (Arm A and Arm B - Idelalisib plus Rituximab) & Baseline up to Week 21 + Safety Follow-Up of up to 5 Weeks (Arm B - Bendamustine plus Rituximab)

TTW was defined as a change in score greater than the meaningful within-person change for worsening in score. Scores were furthermore required to be sustained. To meet the requirement for sustained change, the assessment following the first observation of a meaningful worsening of the score (event date) was also required to show a meaningful worsening compared to baseline. The event date was defined as the first of these consecutive events. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Item Library 87 was used, which is scored from 0-100, with higher scores reflecting more symptoms.

The time to sustained patient-reported outcome (PRO) deterioration was calculated using all on-treatment assessment time points up to the Week 25 (Arm A \& Arm B - Idelalisib plus Rituximab) and up to Week 21 + Safety follow-up of up to 5 weeks (Arm B - Bendamustine plus Rituximab) assessment time point prior to disease progression.
