Phase 1
Recruiting
Conditions
B Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04521231
Lead Sponsor
Amgen
Brief Summary

The Phase I part of the study aims to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) blinatumomab for treatment of Relapsed or Refractory B cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (R/R B-ALL), to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D) of SC administered blinatumomab.

The Phase II part of the study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of SC blinatumomab for treatment of R/R B-ALL and Minimum Residual Disease Positive (MRD+) B-ALL in participants 12 years old and greater. It will also conduct a clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluation of SC1 and SC2 blinatumomab formulations.

GroupInterventionDescription
Dose Escalation Phase: Blinatumomab Subcutaneous Formulation 1 (SC1)BlinatumomabCohorts of at least 3 adult participants with R/R B-ALL will be treated with escalating doses of blinatumomab to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). The MTD will be defined as the dose for which the estimate of the toxicity rate from an isotonic regression (Yan et al, 2017) is closest to the target toxicity rate. Safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy will be assessed.
Dose Expansion Phase: Blinatumomab SC1BlinatumomabUp to 4 cohorts of adult participants with R/R B-ALL will be enrolled at different dose levels to support identification of the RP2D. Each cohort will aim to further assess safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy.
Ph-IIC: Clinical PK Evaluation of SC Blinatumomab FormulationsBlinatumomab1 cohort of adult participants will be enrolled into the Ph-IIC arm. The clinical PK evaluation cohort (Ph-IIC) will be conducted to compare the PK of SC1 and SC2 formulations at the preliminary RP2D determined from the dose expansion phase, in participants with R/R B-ALL.
Ph-IIR: Efficacy of SC Blinatumomab in Participants with R/R B-ALLBlinatumomabThe efficacy of SC blinatumomab (in the SC2 formulation) will be evaluated in adults and adolescents with R/R B-ALL.
Ph-IIM: Efficacy of SC Blinatumomab in Participants with MRD+ B-ALLBlinatumomabThe efficacy of SC blinatumomab (in the SC2 formulation) will be evaluated in adults and adolescents with MRD+ B-ALL.
