简要总结
CLL2-BAAG is a prospective, open-label, multicenter phase-II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a sequential regimen of debulking with bendamustine followed by induction and maintenance with GA101 (obinutuzumab), acalabrutinib (ACP-196) and venetoclax (ABT-199) in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL.
详细描述
In the CLL2-BAAG trial will be included a total of 46 patients with relapsed or refractory CLL in need of treatment.This trial will evaluate a debulking with two cycles bendamustine (only for patients with a higher tumor load), followed by an induction and a maintenance treatment with obinutuzumab, acalabrutinib and venetoclax in patients with re-lapsed/refractory CLL. The duration of maintenance treatment is depending on MRD levels. This trial combines one old (chemotherapy) and three novel, synergistic (antibody, BTK-inhibitor and Bcl-2 antagonist) principles of action in order to achieve deep and long lasting remissions with a short duration of treatment. Additionally, this trial has an extensive accompanying scientific program aiming at a better understanding of the kinetics of response and clonal evolution of CLL.

- •Significantly increased risk of bleeding according to the investigator´s evaluation, e.g. due known bleeding diathesis (e.g. von-Willebrandt´s disease or hemophilia), major surgical procedure ≤ 4 weeks or stroke/intracranial hemorrhage ≤ 6 months.
- •Requirement of therapy with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors/inducers or anticoagulant with phenprocoumon (marcumar) or other vitamin K-antagonists
- •Use of investigational agents ≤ 28 days prior to start of study treatment, however, kinase inhibitors, BCL2-antagonists and antibody treatment are allowed in accordance with inclusion criterion number 1 (see above).
- •Known hypersensitivity to obinutuzumab (GA101), venetoclax (ABT-199), acalabrutinib (ACP-196) or any of the excipients Please note: Patients with a known hypersensitivity to bendamustine are allowed to participate but will not receive a debulking with bendamustine
- •Pregnant women and nursing mothers (a negative preg-nancy test is required for all women of childbearing potential within 7 days before start of treatment)
- •Fertile men or women of childbearing potential unless:
- •surgically sterile or ≥ 2 years after the onset of menopause, or

MRD negativity is defined as less than one (1) CLL-cell among 10,000 leukocytes analyzed \[0.01%\], i.e. \< 10-4. The MRD negativity rate is defined as the proportion of patients having achieved MRD negativity based on the full analysis set (FAS).

- Overall response rate (ORR)(At final restaging (RE): 12 weeks after the start of the last induction cycle)
- CR / CRi rate(At final restaging (RE): 12 weeks after the start of the last induction cycle)
- Safety: Adverse events (AE), serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events of particular interest (AEPI)(up to 40 months after first dose of study drug)
