AALL1621: Inotuzumab Ozogamicin in Treating Younger Patients With Relapsed or Refractory CD22 Positive B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Diseases

Patients must have relapsed or refractory B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

Description

This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin works in treating younger patients with CD22 positive B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Immunotoxins, such as inotuzumab ozogamicin, are antibodies linked to a toxic substance and may help find cancer cells that express CD22 and kill them without harming normal cells.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Ages eligible for study: 1 year to 21 years (Child, Adult)
  • Patients must have B-ALL with >= 5% (M2 or M3) bone marrow blasts with or without extramedullary disease
  • Leukemic blasts must demonstrate surface expression of CD22 at the time of relapse by local/institutional flow cytometry of a bone marrow aspirate sample; (assessment of CD22 using a phycoerythrin [PE] fluorophore is strongly recommended)
  • Patient must have one of the following:
    • Second or greater relapse;
    • Primary refractory disease with at least 2 prior induction attempts;
    • First or greater relapse refractory to at least one prior re-induction attempt
  • Relapsed patients previously diagnosed with B-lymphoblastic lymphoma are eligible if they have an M2 or M3 marrow at the time of enrollment on this study
  • Patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)+ ALL must have had two prior therapy attempts including two different tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs)
  • Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior anti-cancer therapy, defined as resolution of all such toxicities to =< grade 2 or lower per the inclusion/exclusion criteria prior to entering this study
  • Patients must have a performance status corresponding to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scores of 0, 1, or 2; use Karnofsky for patients > 16 years of age and Lansky for patients =< 16 years of age; patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score
  • Creatinine clearance or radioisotope glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >= 70 mL/min/1.73 m^2 or
  • A serum creatinine based on age/gender
  • Direct bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, and
  • Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) (aspartate aminotransferase [AST]) and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) (alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) =< 3 x ULN for age

Detailed inclusion and exclusion criteria as listed on clinicaltrials.gov.
