简要总结
This randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 study planned to enroll approximately 235 treatment-naïve subjects with high-risk Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). Subjects were randomized 1:1 to R-CHOP plus enzastaurin or R-CHOP (plus placebo during induction). All subjects received up to 6 cycles (3 weeks per cycle) of treatment. PET/ CT was used to assess radiographic response at the end of treatment. Each subject's treatment assignment was unblinded after combination phase tumor response assessment. Subjects randomized to the enzastaurin arm who have a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (at investigator's discretion) by Lugano Classification had the opportunity to continue in the single-agent phase of the study and receive single-agent enzastaurin for up to 2 additional years.
详细描述
Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common of the Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas, accounting for between 30%-40% of all cases. The incidence of DLBCL generally increases with age and roughly half of all patients are over the age of 60 at the time of diagnosis.
DLBCL is classified as an aggressive lymphoma meaning that its clinical course can progress rapidly to death. Nevertheless, patients with DLBCL can be cured with the appropriate treatment. The current standard of care treatment for DLBCL consists of rituximab added to the anthracycline-containing combination chemotherapy regimen of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (NCCN Treatment Guidelines). This regimen is referred to as R-CHOP immunochemotherapy. For DLBCL as a whole, R-CHOP immunochemotherapy has resulted in cure rates of approximately 60%. However, for individual patients 5-year survival rates can range from 90% for low-risk patients to less than 50% for high-risk patients.
Most important, for those subjects refractory to R-CHOP therapy less than 10% achieve a durable remission with secondary therapy. Thus, while R-CHOP remains the standard treatment for high-risk, advanced-stage DLBCL, approximately 30-40% of patients fail front-line therapy with most not achieving complete response or with early relapse. An essential step to move forward and improve the outcomes of these patients is to increase the rate of complete response to front-line R-CHOP therapy.
For this reason, there has been a great deal of effort placed on attempting to define disease characteristics that predispose patients to a poorer prognosis with R-CHOP therapy. Molecular and gene expression profiling of tumors and a variety of clinical prognostic indices have been used to identify patients at higher risk of failing R-CHOP immunochemotherapy. While this work has identified subgroups of patients who do not respond well to R-CHOP, to date these efforts have not resulted in substantial gains in response to front-line therapy.
Denovo Biopharma (Denovo) has pioneered an alternative approach to this challenging problem. Denovo has developed a model that employs sophisticated pharmacogenomic testing to detect somatic biomarkers that identify those subjects who responded to a particular study treatment with the aim of re-studying the drug of interest, in this case enzastaurin, in an enriched population.

研究组 & 干预措施
R-CHOP + enzastaurin
Subjects in the R-CHOP + enzastaurin Arm will receive R-CHOP (Rituximab-375 mg/m2 i.v., Cyclophosphamide-750 mg/m2 i.v., Doxorubicin-50 mg/m2 i.v., Vincristine-1.4 mg/m2 i.v. (2 mg max), and Prednisone-100 mg p.o.), as directed, plus a 1125 mg loading dose of enzastaurin on Day 2 followed by 500 mg daily.
After completion of the combination phase of treatment, subjects will be reassessed using PET-CT and subsequently each subject's treatment assignment will be unblinded. Subjects randomized to the enzastaurin arm who have CR or PR at investigator's discretion by the Lugano Classification will be offered single-agent enzastaurin at 500 mg/day (4 tablets once daily) continuously for up to 2 additional years. All other subjects on the enzastaurin arm will receive no further study treatment and transition into the follow up phase of the study; these subjects will receive standard of care based on their response assessment.
干预措施: Enzastaurin Hydrochloride (Drug)
R-CHOP + placebo
Subjects in the R-CHOP + placebo Arm will receive R-CHOP (Rituximab-375 mg/m2 i.v., Cyclophosphamide-750 mg/m2 i.v., Doxorubicin-50 mg/m2 i.v., Vincristine-1.4 mg/m2 i.v. (2 mg max), and Prednisone-100 mg p.o.), as directed, plus an identical number of tablets as the subjects in the enzastaurin Arm.
After completion of the combination phase of treatment, subjects will be reassessed using PET-CT and subsequently each subject's treatment assignment will be unblinded. All subjects randomized to the placebo arm will receive no further study treatment and transition into the follow up phase of the study; these subjects will receive standard of care based on their response assessment.
干预措施: R-CHOP + placebo (Other)
