An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Pharmacokinetic Study of Intramuscular Erwinaze® (Asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi)/Erwinase® (Crisantaspase)

May 11, 2015 updated by: Jazz Pharmaceuticals

An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Pharmacokinetic Study of Intramuscular Erwinaze® (Asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi)/Erwinase® (Crisantaspase) Administered Following Hypersensitivity to E. Coli Asparaginase in Young Adults With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or Lymphoblastic Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the serum asparaginase activity in subjects ages 18 to <40 years with ALL or LBL who have developed a hypersensitivity to native E. coli asparaginase or pegaspargase.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

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 to 40 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Have a diagnosis of ALL or LBL
  2. Be 18 to <40 years of age at the time of enrollment
  3. Have a documented ≥ Grade 2 clinical hypersensitivity reaction to native E. coli asparaginase (e.g., Elspar or Kidrolase) or pegaspargase (Oncaspar)

  4. Have the following asparaginase doses remaining in their treatment plan:

    • At least two (2) consecutive weeks of native E. coli asparaginase treatment OR
    • At least one (1) dose of pegaspargase (Oncaspar)
  5. Have a direct bilirubin ≤ Grade 2 (<3.0 mg/dL [52 µmol/L])
  6. Have amylase and lipase within normal limits (per institutional standards)
  7. Have a serum asparaginase activity below the detectable limit during screening prior to the first dose of study drug (Erwinaze)
  8. Consent to use a medically acceptable method of contraception throughout the entire study period and for 4 weeks after the study is completed. Medically acceptable methods of contraception that may be used by the subject and/or the partner include abstinence, birth control pills or patches, diaphragm and spermicide, condom and vaginal spermicide, surgical sterilization, postmenopausal, vasectomy (>6 months prior to baseline), and progestin implant or injection.
  9. Have signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Prior history of ≥ Grade 3 pancreatitis
  2. Prior history of a major thrombotic event as assessed by the investigator, or any subject with a history of asparaginase-associated serious hemorrhagic or thrombotic event requiring prolonged anticoagulation therapy with agents such as heparin
  3. Prior treatment with Erwinaze
  4. Pregnant or lactating female subjects or female subjects of childbearing potential not willing to use an adequate method of birth control (listed above) for the duration of the study
  5. Subjects with a history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis.
  6. Any other condition that would cause a risk (in the investigator's judgment) to subjects if they participate in the trial

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

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

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Erwinaze / Erwinase
Drug: Erwinaze® (Asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi)/Erwinase® (Crisantaspase)
  • Enrolled patients will receive asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi 25,000 IU/m2 administered intramuscularly (IM) on a Monday/Wednesday/Friday schedule (all dosing regimens will start on a Monday)
  • All patients will receive at least 1 course (2 weeks) of treatment with asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi (1 course=6 doses), and a maximum number of courses needed to complete their remaining asparaginase therapy (up to 15 courses)
  • Eligible patients may not begin treatment with asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi until their serum asparaginase activity level is below the assay detectable limit

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 1, 2014

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
