Intratumoral Poly-ICLC Plus Low Dose Local Radiation in Low Grade Recurrent B and T Cell Lymphoma

July 19, 2011 updated by: Nevada Cancer Institute

A Phase I Study of Intratumoral Poly-ICLC Plus Low Dose Local Radiation in Low Grade Recurrent B and T Cell Lymphoma

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of intratumoral Polyinosinicpolycytidylic acid stabilized with polylysine and carboxymethylcellulose (poly-ICLC)(Hiltonol®) in addition to low-dose local radiotherapy for adult patients with low grade lymphomas, including follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, small lymphocytic lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The secondary endpoints are response rate, immune responses, and durability of responses as well as generation of antiinflammatory response at sites of tumor involvement.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients must be at least 18 years of age.
  2. Patients must have biopsy confirmed low-grade B-cell lymphoma (follicular, marginal zone, or small cell/chronic lymphocytic leukemia) or mycosis fungoides. B-cell lymphoma patients must have failed at least one prior therapy (chemotherapy or immunotherapy) or mycosis fungoides patients failed at least 1 topical or systemic treatment.
  3. Patients must have at least one accessible tumor site that can be injected with poly-ICLC.
  4. Patients must have measurable disease other than the injection site.
  5. Patients must have a Karnofsky performance status of at least 70%.
  6. Patients must have adequate hematologic, renal and liver function (i.e., absolute neutrophil count at least 1500/mm3, Platelets at least 100,000/mm3, creatinine no more than 1.7 mg/dl, total bilirubin no more than 1.5 mg/dl, transaminases no more than 4 times above the upper limits of the institutional normal).
  7. Patients must be able to provide written informed consent.
  8. Patients with the potential for pregnancy or impregnating their partner must agree to follow acceptable birth control methods to avoid conception. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test. While animal testing has been negative, the anti-proliferative activity of this experimental drug may theoretically be harmful to the developing fetus or nursing infant.

  9. Required washout period for prior therapy:

    • Topical therapy: 2 weeks.
    • Chemotherapy: 4 weeks
    • Radiotherapy: (including phototherapy): 4 weeks 13 of 26
    • Biological therapies: 4 weeks
    • Other investigational therapy: 4 weeks
    • Rituximab: 12 weeks

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Any history of autoimmune or antibody mediated disease including: systemic lupus, erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Sjogren's syndrome, autoimmune thrombocytopenia, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, pure red cell aplasia, but excluding controlled thyroid disease, or the presence of autoantibodies without clinical autoimmune disease.
  2. Off nucleoside or bendustine therapy for a minimum of 6 months
  3. Prior treatment with Campath
  4. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or hepatitis C (active, prior treatment, or both).
  5. Patients with active infection or with a fever > 38.5°C within three days prior to the first scheduled treatment.
  6. CNS metastases.
  7. Prior malignancy (active within 5 years of screening) except basal cell or completely excised non-invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or in situ squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.
  8. Current anticoagulant therapy (ASA no more than 325 mg/day allowed).
  9. Significant cardiovascular disease (i.e., NYHA class 3 congestive heart failure; myocardial infarction within the past 6 months; unstable angina; coronary angioplasty within the past 6 months; uncontrolled atrial or ventricular cardiac arrhythmias).
  10. Pregnant or lactating.
  11. Any other medical history, including laboratory results, deemed by the investigator to be likely to interfere with their participation in the study, or to interfere with the interpretation of the results.

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL: Poly-ICLC
Poly-ICLC plus low dose local radiation.
Drug: Poly-ICLC
An accessible site of disease (lymph node, cutaneous, subcutaneous, etc.) will be selected by the principal investigator. Patients will then receive two doses of low dose irradiation (2 Gy per day) to that single site on days 1 and 2. Intratumorally or peritumorally Poly-ICLC will be dosed on days 3 and 4 by the physician during weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
