Brief Summary

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax and how well it works when given together with vincristine in treating patients with T-cell or B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Chemotherapy drugs, such as vincristine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax together with vincristine may work better in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia compared to vincristine alone.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose of venetoclax in combination with vincristine liposomal (liposomal vincristine)/vincristine sulfate in patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell and B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). (Phase I) II. Safety assessment and toxicity characterization after treatment of venetoclax in combination with liposomal vincristine in patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell and B-cell ALL. (Phase I) III. To determine the preliminary efficacy of venetoclax in combination with liposomal vincristine/vincristine sulfate to induce complete remission (CR)+ incomplete complete remission (CRi) in patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell and B-cell ALL. (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the progression free survival, overall survival and toxicity after the combination treatment in patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell and B-cell ALL. (Phase II) II. To determine the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate of the combination. (Phase II)

EXPLORATORY/CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine if genetic signature as determined by next generation sequencing can predict response to combination. (Phase II) II. To determine if immunophenotype of ALL is associated with response to combination. (Phase II) III. To determine if the BH3 profile is associated with response to combination. (Phase II) IV. To determine if relative expression of BCL-2 measure by flow cytometry is associated with response to combination. (Phase II)

OUTLINE: This is a phase Ib, dose-escalation study of venetoclax followed by a phase II study.

PHASE Ib: Patients receive venetoclax orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-42 of cycle 1 and days 43-70 of cycle 2. Patients also receive vincristine liposomal intravenously (IV) over 1 hour weekly for 4 weeks starting on day 15 of cycle 1. Patients who achieve at least a stable disease response may continue treating at the discretion of the treating physician in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo blood sample collection throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo computed tomography (CT) and/or positron emission tomography (PET) scan as well as a lumbar puncture as clinically indicated.

PHASE II: Patients receive venetoclax PO QD on days 1-28 of each cycle. Patients also receive vincristine liposomal IV over 1 hour weekly for 4 weeks on day 1 of each cycle or vincristine sulfate IV weekly on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and once every 4 weeks on day 1 of each subsequent cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days. Patients who achieve at least a stable disease response may continue treating at the discretion of the treating physician in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo blood sample collection throughout the trial. Patients may also undergo CT and/or PET scan as well as a lumbar puncture as clinically indicated.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 5 years.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum tolerated dose of venetoclax (Phase I)Up to 70 days

Will be determined by dose limiting toxicity. The phase I portion of this study will use a standard 3+3 design.

Incidence of toxicities (Phase I)Up to 5 years

Toxicities will be assessed and graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.

Complete remission (CR) + complete remission incomplete (CRi) rate (Phase II)Up to end of cycle 3 (1 cycle = 28 days)

A 90% confidence interval will be computed.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression free survival (PFS) (Phase II)From study registration to documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 5 years

Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the median PFS along with its corresponding 95% confidence interval will be reported.

Overall survival (OS) (Phase II)From study registration to death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years

Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the median OS along with its corresponding 95% confidence interval will be reported.

Incidence of toxicities (Phase II)Up to 5 years

Toxicity incidences will be assessed and graded according to the CTCAE and will be tabulated by patient cohort.

Change in intracellular BCL-2 expression (Phase II)Baseline up to 5 years

Will be assessed by flow cytometry and dichotomized into two groups by the median (low versus \[vs\] high). Univariate Cox proportional hazards (PH) models will be used to evaluate the association of the BCL-2 expression at baseline and immunophenotype (B-cell and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia) with OS and PFS, separately. Logistic regression models will be used to investigate the association of the BCL-2 expression at baseline and immunophenotype with response (CR/CRi/partial remission \[PR\] vs others by 70 days). Multivariable Cox PH modelling and logistic regression modelling will also be used to adjust for the effect of covariates that are possibly associated with these efficacy outcomes.

Minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate (Phase II)Up to 5 years
