Standard Maintenance POMP/D Plus Ixazomib Maintenance Therapy in Adult Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Lymphoblastic Lymphoma or Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia in Complete Remission (CR)

February 13, 2018 updated by: Ehab L Atallah

Standard Maintenance [POMP/D (Methotrexate, 6 - Mercaptopurine, Vincristine, Prednisone/Dexamethasone)] Plus Ixazomib Maintenance Therapy in Adults With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Lymphoblastic Lymphoma or Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia in Complete Remission (CR)

In this phase I study, escalating doses of IXAZOMIB will be combined with the POMP/D regimen.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

The primary objective is to determine the maximum-tolerated dose of IXAZOMIB (MLN9708) (maximum of 4 mg, which is the recommended phase II dose for IXAZOMIB (MLN9708) in combination with standard maintenance therapy with POMP/D (methotrexate, 6- mercaptopurine, vincristine, prednisone/dexamethasone) and to assess the tolerability of POMP/D and IXAZOMIB (MLN9708) maintenance in adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) or mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) in complete remission (CR).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE

To determine the three-year progression-free survival (PFS) of patients treated with oral IXAZOMIB (MLN9708) and standard maintenance regimen. Progression-free survival will be measured from the start of induction to disease relapse.

STUDY DESIGN

The maximum-tolerated dose of single agent IXAZOMIB was 1.76 to 2.0mg/m2 when given on a twice a week schedule1 and > 2.34 mg/m2 to 2.97 mg/m2 on a weekly schedule in previous studies.

Three patients will be treated per dose level unless dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is observed. The starting dose of IXAZOMIB will be 3 mg orally on days 1, 8 and 15. If no DLT is seen in the first three patients, the dose will be increased to 4 mg on days 1, 8 and 15 in a classic 3 +3 phase I design. We will not attempt to increase the dose beyond 4 mg orally which, if achieved with acceptable toxicity, would be accepted as the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Zero of three DLTs would allow escalation to the next dose level. One of three DLTs will require expanding to six patients; one of six DLTs will allow escalation again. Two DLTs will require dose de-escalation. The maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) will be the highest dose administered at which no more than one DLT was observed.

Inclusion criteria:

  • Male or female patients 18 years or older.
  • Have B-precursor, T cell ALL, MPAL or LBL in CR following therapy and receiving maintenance therapy. Patients with persistent minimal residual disease and/or in complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery are not eligible.
  • Prior therapy: Should have achieved CR following the induction and intensification phases of treatment, with no limit on the number of prior treatment regimens, and started treatment with POMP/D maintenance. Patients who achieved CRp or CR with persistence of minimal residual disease are not eligible.
  • Patients are eligible after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2.
  • Patients must meet the following clinical laboratory criteria:

    • Total bilirubin < 1.5 X the upper limit of the normal range (ULN).
    • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase. (AST) < 3 X ULN.
    • Calculated creatinine clearance > 30 mL/min.
    • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1,000/cmm and platelets > 75,000/cmm.
  • Patient has a life expectancy of at least six months.
  • Patients must be at least two weeks from major surgery, radiation therapy, participation in other investigational trials and have recovered from clinically significant toxicities of these prior treatments.
  • Patients should be on stable doses of 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, vincristine and prednisone/dexamethasone as part of the POMP/D regimen, for a minimum of eight weeks PRIOR to starting ixazomib treatment.
  • Patients should have at least six months of therapy with the POMP/D regimen remaining prior to starting IXAZOMIB (MLN9708).
  • Female patients who:

    • Are postmenopausal for at least one year before the screening visit, OR
    • Are surgically sterile, OR
    • If they are of childbearing potential, agree to practice two effective. methods of contraception, at the same time, from the time of signing the informed consent form through 90 days after the last dose of study drug, AND
    • Must also adhere to the guidelines of any treatment-specific pregnancy prevention program, if applicable, OR
    • Agree to practice true abstinence when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)
  • Male patients, even if surgically sterilized (i.e., status postvasectomy), must agree to one of the following:

    • Agree to practice effective barrier contraception during the entire study treatment period and through 90 days after the last dose of study drug, OR
    • Must also adhere to the guidelines of any treatment-specific pregnancy prevention program, if applicable, OR
    • Agree to practice true abstinence when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)

Exclusion criteria:

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ixazomib (MLN9708) in combination with standard POMP/D

Patients who are receiving maintenance therapy with the POMP/D (Methotrexate, 6-Mercaptopurine, Vincristine, Prednisone/Dexamethasone) will be enrolled. Each cycle will be 28 days. The patients will receive IV vincristine, dexamethasone or prednisone, methotrexate and 6 - Mercaptopurine. Ixazomib will be administered on days 1, 8 and 15.

Both prednisone and dexamethasone are acceptable drugs in maintenance therapy. For example, in the HyperCVAD regimen or the CALGB 8811 prednisone is used. Patients will continue the same maintenance regimen they are receiving and ixazomib will be added to that.

Patients who have been on stable doses of 6 - MP, vincristine, and methotrexate for a minimum of eight weeks and have at least six months remaining of maintenance are eligible to receive Ixazomib, which will be administered on days 1, 8 and 15.
