Phase 1/2 Study of Carfilzomib for the Prevention of Relapse and GVHD in Allo-HCT for Hematologic Malignancies

December 3, 2021 updated by: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center

Phase 1/2 Study of Carfilzomib for the Prevention of Relapse and Graft-versus-host Disease in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for High-risk Hematologic Malignancies

The investigators hypothesize that adding carfilzomib to standard conditioning regimen for allo-HCT for advanced or high-risk hematologic malignancies will decrease post-transplant relapse and treatment-related mortality by decreasing severe GVHD, leading to overall improvement in transplant outcomes.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Phase I: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Carfilzomib
Time Frame: Up to day 28
Subjects were enrolled on the first dose level (20 mg/m^2), following a standard 3+3 dose escalation. For any given dose level, if none of the 3 subjects developed a treatment-related dose limiting toxicity (DLT), defined per protocol, dose escalation would follow. If a DLT occurred in any given dose level, the cohort would be expanded to 6. Further dose escalation would be made only if DLTs occurred in <2 out of 6 subjects. If >=2 of 6 develop DLTs, dose de-escalation would be made to the previous level. The highest dose level at which no more than one of six participants experience a DLT defines the MTD.
Up to day 28
Phase II: Kaplan-Meier Estimate of the Percentage of Patients Who Are Alive and Have Not Developed Any "Event"
Time Frame: 1 year
Kaplan-Meier estimate of the percentage of patients who are alive and have not developed relapse/progression of primary disease or clinical grade III-IV acute graft-versus- host disease (GVHD) or chronic GVHD requiring systemic treatment. Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Phase II: Kaplan-Meier Estimate for Progression/Relapse-free Survival Time
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Time from day 0 to the date of the first progression/relapse. Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
Up to 3 years
Phase II: Kaplan-Meier Estimate for Overall Survival Time
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
The time from day 0 to the day of death from any cause. Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
Up to 3 years
Number of Regimen Related Toxicities (RRTs)
Time Frame: Up to 30 days post treatment
An RTT is defined as an adverse event (AE) that occurs within +37 days after transplant or 30 days after the last dose of carfilzomib (day +7), and is considered to be a direct consequence and a related event as a result of the combination of conditioning chemotherapy, GVHD prophylaxis regimen and carfilzomib.
Up to 30 days post treatment
Phase II: Cumulative Incidence of Acute GVHD
Time Frame: At day 180 post-transplant; data collected up to 3 years
The cumulative incidence of acute Graft Versus Host Disease (aGVHD). Events were assigned a severity grade using the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v. 4.0; lower values indicate least severe and higher values indicate most severe. Grades 2 - 4 and grades 3 - 4 events are reported. Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
At day 180 post-transplant; data collected up to 3 years
Phase II: Cumulative Incidence of Chronic GVHD
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
The cumulative incidence of chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD). Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
Up to 3 years
Phase II: Cumulative Incidence of Non-relapse Mortality
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
The cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality. Subjects who receive all 4 doses of carfilzomib at the maximum tolerated dose level will be considered evaluable for endpoint analysis.
Up to 3 years
