詳細な説明
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of avelumab in combination with azacitidine (5-azacytidine) in patients with refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). (Phase IB)
II. To determine the overall response rate (ORR) defined as complete remission (CR)/complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp)/complete remission with incomplete count recovery (CRi)/partial remission (PR)/hematologic improvement (HI)/morphologic leukemia free state (MLFS) of avelumab in combination with 5-azacytidine in patients with refractory/relapsed AML. (Phase II
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the number of patients achieve > 50% reduction in blasts on therapy with this combination.
II. To determine the duration of response, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) of patients with refractory/relapsed AML treated with this combination
TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To study immunological and molecular features at baseline and at predefined time-points on-therapy with avelumab and azacytidine in the peripheral blood and bone marrow to include quantify immune ligand expression by the AML blasts and AML stromal components (myeloid-derived suppressor cells [MDSCs] and mesenchymal stem cells [MSCs]) including 4-1BBL, ICOSL, PD-L1, PD-L2, OX-40L, CD137L.
II. To study immunological and molecular features at baseline and at predefined time-points on-therapy with avelumab and azacytidine in the peripheral blood and bone marrow to determine the quantitative expression of positive and negative co-stimulatory molecules on individual T-lymphocyte subsets including 4-1BB, CTLA-4, ICOS, PD-1, OX40, LAG-3 and TIM-3.
III. To study immunological and molecular features at baseline and at predefined time-points on-therapy with avelumab and azacytidine in the peripheral blood and bone marrow to identify the immunophenotype of tumor-infiltrating T-lymphocytes (TILs) pre- and post-therapy with the combination: CD8+, CD4+ effector, or CD4+ regulatory.
IV. To develop a micro-array based gene expression profile (GEP) predictor of response to anti-PDL1 and epigenetic therapy in AML.
V. To determine the correlation of responses to the combination with baseline cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities
OUTLINE: This is a phase Ib, dose-escalation study of avelumab followed by a phase II study
Patients receive azacitidine subcutaneously (SC) or intravenously (IV) over 10-40 minutes on days 1-7 or on days 1-5 and 8-9. Patients also receive avelumab IV over 60 minutes on days 1 and 14 for 4 courses (or until complete response) and on day 1 for subsequent courses. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3-6 months for up to 5 years.

- Patients with AML who are refractory (up to salvage 2) or relapsed (up to 2nd relapse); for patients with prior myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) or myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) who transformed to AML, therapy received for MDS, CMML, or MPN is NOT considered as prior therapy for AML
- Prior therapy with hydroxyurea, chemotherapy, biological or targeted therapy (e.g. FLT3 inhibitors, other kinase inhibitors), or hematopoietic growth factors is allowed
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =< 2
- Total bilirubin =< 1.5 times upper limit of normal (x ULN) (=< 3 x ULN if considered to be due to leukemic involvement or Gilbert's syndrome)

- Estimated creatinine clearance >= 30 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula (or local institutional standard method)
- Patients must provide written informed consent
- In the absence of rapidly progressing disease, the interval from prior treatment to time of initiation of 5-azacytidine and avelumab will be at least 14 days OR at least 5 half-lives for cytotoxic/noncytotoxic agents, whichever is longer; the toxicity from prior therapy should have resolved to grade =< 1, however alopecia and sensory neuropathy grade =< 2 is acceptable; the half-life for the therapy in question will be based on published pharmacokinetic literature (abstracts, manuscripts, investigator brochures, or drug-administration manuals) and will be documented in the protocol eligibility document; use of hydroxyurea for patients with rapidly proliferative disease is allowed before the start of study therapy and will not require a washout; concurrent therapy for central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis or continuation of therapy for controlled CNS disease is permitted; patients with CNS disease or leukemic brain metastasis must have been treated locally and be clinically stable for at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment and have no ongoing neurological symptoms that are related to the CNS disease (sequelae that are a consequence of the treatment of the CNS disease are acceptable)
- Females must be surgically or biologically sterile or postmenopausal (amenorrheic for at least 12 months) or if of childbearing potential, must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 72 hours before the start of the treatment
Women of childbearing potential must agree to use an adequate method of contraception during the study and until 3 months after the last treatment; males must be surgically or biologically sterile or agree to use an adequate method of contraception during the study until 3 months after the last treatment; adequate methods of contraception include:
- Total abstinence when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient; periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception
- Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking study treatment; in case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment
- Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening); for female patients on the study, the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that patient

- b. Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS)
- c. Barrier methods of contraception: condom or occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/ vaginal suppository In case of use of oral contraception, women should have been stable on the same pill before taking study treatment
- Note: oral contraceptives are allowed but should be used in conjunction with a barrier method of contraception due to unknown effect of drug-drug interaction
- Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks ago; in the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential
