Design | Prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open-label phase-II trial |
Objective | To evaluate the efficacy and the safety of the therapeutic regimen |
Primary Endpoint | Overall response rate (ORR) at final restaging (RE) including all patients achieving CR, CRi or PR |
Secondary Endpoints | - Safety parameters: AEs, AESI and their relationship to study treatment - MRD levels measured in peripheral blood at · final restaging after end of induction treatment · every 3 - 6 months during the maintenance phase dependent on the state of remission achieved · every 6 months during follow up - MRD level in bone marrow - Best response rate (BRR) until 6 months after RE - ORR after debulking, maintenance therapy,in the two strata of previously untreated and relapsed/refractory patients, as well as in the fit and unfit patients for all response definitions, in biological defined risk groups - (Clinical) complete response rate (CR) - Progression-free survival (PFS) - Event-free survival (EFS) - Overall survival (OS) - Duration of response, treatment free survival and time to next treatment - Evaluation of relationship between various baseline markers and clinical outcome parameters - Efficacy and safety of re-treatment with venetoclax and obinutuzumab |
Target Population | - According to amendment 4 only patients already included in the CLL2-BAG trial qualify for re-treatment with venetoclax and obinutuzumab.
Re-treatment is scheduled to start by the end of September 2020.
No new patients will be recruited. - B-CLL according to iwCLL criteria (2008), requiring treatment - Previously untreated or relapsed/refractory CLL - ECOG performance status 0 – 2 (ECOG 3 only permitted if related to CLL) - Age ≥ 18 years |
Treatment | Debulking 2 debulking cycles of bendamustine will be administered unless the patient has a contraindication or a debulking is not clinically indicated Bendamustin i.v. Cycle 1 - 2: 70 mg/m², d1-2 q 28d Please note: Patients re-treated with venetoclax and obinutuzumab (amendment 4) receive no debulking with bendamustine |
Induction Obinutuzumab i.v. Cycle 1: d1 - 100 mg, d1 (or d2) - 900 mg, d8 + d15 - 1000 mg Cycle 2 - 6: 1000 mg, d1 + Venetoclax p.o. Cycle 2: Dose eskalation d1-7: 20mg, d8-14: 50mg, d15-21: 100mg, d22-28: 200mg Cycle 3 - 6: 400 mg daily q 28d During the phase of staging between induction and maintenance the intake of Venetoclax is continued. |
|
Maintenance Obinutuzumab i.v. Cycle 1 - 8: 1000 mg, d1 + Venetoclax p.o. Cycle 1 - 8: 400 mg daily q 84d Maintenance treatment will be continued until (whichever occurs first): - 3 months after confirmation of achievement of MRD negativity in patients with a (clinical) CR/CRi, - progression of CLL or start of a subsequent therapy - unacceptable toxicity - maintenance cycle 8 |
