MAP to Provide Access to Nilotinib, for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

August 5, 2022 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

Managed Access Program (MAP) to Provide Access to Nilotinib, for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Philadelphia Chromosome Positive (Ph+) Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

The purpose of this Cohort Treatment Plan is to allow access to nilotinib for eligible patients diagnosed with relapsed or refractory Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

Study Overview

Status

No longer available

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Currently, preliminary responses of nilotinib monotherapy in adults with refractory or relapsed Ph+ ALL show limited clinical benefit in this population of patients with a high unmet medical need. Remissions induced by imatinib are of short duration and resistance to imatinib represents a major clinical challenge. The exact benefit and role of nilotinib in this leukemia remains to be determined and requires further analysis. Until further data is available patients with Ph+ ALL should be treated with nilotinib through the Individual Patient Program.. Studies to date indicate that nilotinib may provide clinical benefit to Ph+ ALL patients and may represent a novel treatment option for these patients.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

The following criteria must be fulfilled for the provision of Managed Access and will vary depending on the stage of the product lifecycle:

  • An independent request should be received from the Treating Physician (in some instances from Health Authorities, Institutions or Governments);
  • The patient to be treated has a serious or life threatening disease or condition, and no comparable or satisfactory alternative therapy is available to monitor or treat the disease or condition;
  • The patient is not eligible or able to enroll in a clinical trial;
  • There is a potential patient benefit to justify the potential risk of the treatment use, and the potential risk is not unreasonable in the context of the disease or condition to be treated;
  • Provision of the investigational product will not interfere with the initiation, conduct or completion of a Novartis clinical trial or overall development program and
  • Such access provision as described above is allowed as per local laws and regulations.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients eligible for inclusion in this Treatment Plan have to meet all of the following criteria:

  4. Imatinib (or dasatinib) must be discontinued at least 5 days prior to beginning therapy
  5. Normal organ, electrolyte and marrow functions as described below:

    • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 x 1000000000/L
    • Platelets 50 x 1000000000/L
    • Potassium ≥ LLN (Lower limit of normal) or corrected to within normal limits with supplements prior to the first dose of nilotinib
    • Total calcium (corrected for serum albumin) ≥ LLN
    • Magnesium ≥ LLN or corrected to within normal limits with supplements prior to the first dose of nilotinib medication
    • AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5.0 x UL:N if considered due to tumor
    • Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN
