DCLLSG

CLL2O Trial

Title A prospective, multi-center phase II study of subcutaneous alemtuzumab combined with oral dexamethasone, followed by alemtuzumab maintenance or allogeneic stem-cell transplantation, in chronic lymphocytic leukemia which is associated with 17p deletion or is refractory to fludarabine:
CLL2O protocol of the German CLL Study Group (GCLLSG) in cooperation with the French CLL Study Group (FCLLSG) and the European Research Initiative on CLL (ERIC)
Protocol IDs EudraCT-2007-003099-20
NCT01392079
Recruitment Status closed
Design Prospective, open-label, european, multi-centre phase II trial
Objectives - Assessment of the efficacy of the study treatment in the Study Population in terms of response rate, progression-free survival, failure-free survival and overall survival
- Acquisition of further data to expand the data base on the toxicity of the study treatment
- Assessment of the efficacy of the study treatment in biological risk groups
- Assessment of response in terms of minimal residual disease
Primary Endpoint(s) objective response rate (ORR)
Secondary Endpoint(s) - progression-free survival (PFS)
- Failure-free survival (FFS)
- Overall survival (OS)
- Toxicity (further data)
- Efficacy in biological risk groups
- MRD response rate
Study Population B-CLL in need of treatment
- Binet C or A/B with “active disease” according to the NCI criteria
- refractory to purine analogue* (cohort 1) and/or 17p deletion (cohort 2)
- max. 5 different previous treatment regimens
Age ≥ 18 years
* Fludarabine, Pentostatin, Cladribine, Bendamustine
Treatment Induction
