This study has been completed.
First Received: January 10, 2002   Last Updated: February 5, 2009   History of Changes
Sponsored by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00029367
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as apolizumab and rituximab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining apolizumab and rituximab in treating patients who have lymphoma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and toxicity of apolizumab [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Antitumor activity at the MTD at the end of study treatment [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Pharmacokinetics [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Effects of treatment in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) as measured by microarray profiling pre-treatment and at the end of study treatment [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effects of treatment in patients with CLL on kinetics of apoptosis as measured by fluorescent-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis of Annnexin 5 pre-treatment and at the end of study treatment [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effects of treatment on T-cell and B-cell levels pre-treatment, during treatment, and at the end of study treatment [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Study Start Date: August 2001
Primary Completion Date: May 2006 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of apolizumab when administered with rituximab in patients with relapsed CD20 and 1D10-positive B-cell lymphoma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
  • Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.
  • Determine the antitumor activity of this regimen in these patients.
  • Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of apolizumab.

Patients receive apolizumab IV over several hours on day 1 followed 24-36 hours later by rituximab IV. Treatment repeats every 7 days for 4 weeks. At 12 weeks after completion of treatment, patients with stable disease or a complete or partial response may receive additional treatment for up to 3 courses.

Cohorts of 2-6 patients receive escalating doses of apolizumab until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Once the MTD is determined, 24 additional patients (12 with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and 12 with lymphoma) are treated at the MTD.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 4 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 6-69 patients will be accrued for this study within 12 months.
