Dasatinib for Modulating Immune System After Autologous Stem Cell Transplants for Multiple Myeloma, Non-Hodgkin, or Hodgkin Lymphoma

March 12, 2020 updated by: Abhinav Deol, Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute

Phase I Study of Dasatinib in Recipients of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Hematologic Malignancies.

This study uses a drug called dasatinib to produce an anti-cancer effect called large granular lymphocyte cellular expansion. Large granular lymphocytes are blood cells known as natural killer cells that remove cancer cells. Researchers think that dasatinib may cause large granular lymphocyte expansion to happen in patients who have received a blood stem cell transplant (SCT) between 3 to 15 months after the blood SCT. In this research study, researchers want to find how well dasatinib can be tolerated, the best dose to take of dasatinib and to estimate how often large granular lymphocytic cellular expansion happens at the best dose of dasatinib.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Recipients of first ASCT for the treatment of hematologic malignancies (multiple myeloma, Hodgkin's and non Hodgkin's lymphoma)
  • Patients must be between 100 to 180 days after ASCT
  • Dasatinib use prior to ASCT is allowed
  • Performance status >= 60%
  • Presence of LGL clone prior to enrollment will not be an exclusion criterion if the LGL clone is < 25% of T cell population
  • Total bilirubin < 2.0 times the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Hepatic enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase [AST], alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) =< 2.5 times the institutional ULN

  • Patient should be able to provide signed written informed consent; before any study procedures are performed, subjects will have the details of the study described to them, and they will be given a written informed consent document to read; then, if subjects consent to participate in the study, they will indicate that consent by signing and dating the informed consent document in the presence of study personnel; written consent will include a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) form according to institutional guidelines
  • Patient should be able to take oral medication (dasatinib must be swallowed whole)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have evidence of disease progression before day 100 after ASCT

    • Women with a positive pregnancy test
    • Sexually active fertile men not using effective birth control if their partners are WOCBP
  • Medical history and concurrent diseases:
  • No malignancy (other than the one treated in this study) which required radiotherapy or systemic treatment within the past 5 years
  • Concurrent medical condition which may increase the risk of toxicity, including:

    • Pleural or pericardial effusion of any grade at the time of screening for study
    • Cardiac symptoms; any of the following should be considered for exclusion:

      • Uncontrolled angina, congestive heart failure or myocardial infarction (MI) (within 6 months)

  • Any previous history of >= grade 3 toxicity to dasatinib
  • Prohibited treatments and or therapies
  • Category I drugs that are generally accepted to have a risk of causing torsades de pointes including: (patients must discontinue drug 7 days prior to starting dasatinib):

    • Quinidine, procainamide, disopyramide
    • Amiodarone, sotalol, ibutilide, dofetilide
    • Erythromycin, clarithromycin

  • Patient agrees to discontinue St. Johns Wort while receiving dasatinib therapy (discontinue St. Johns Wort at least 5 days before starting dasatinib)
  • Patient agrees that intravenous (IV) bisphosphonates will be withheld for the first 8 weeks of dasatinib therapy due to risk of hypocalcemia
  • Other exclusion criteria:
  • Prisoners or subjects who are involuntarily incarcerated
  • Subjects who are compulsorily detained for treatment of either a psychiatric or physical (eg, infectious disease) illness

  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Dasatinib
This is a phase 1 dose escalation study, using a standard 3+3 design. Dasatinib is administered orally once daily in the outpatient setting. The starting dose of dasatinib is 20 mg daily. The increment of dose escalation is 20 mg per dose level. Thus, there will be 5 dose levels (20 mg, 40 mg, 60 mg, 80 mg and 100 mg, respectively) with 3 patients in each cohort. Patients will continue on dasatinib for 6 months
Patients receive dasatinib PO every day (QD) for 6 months.

  • BMS-354825
  • Sprycel
