Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Actual Enrollment : 25 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Sequential Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Prospective, Multicenter, Open-Label, Single Arm, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Defibrotide in the Prevention of Chimeric Antigen Receptor-T-cell-associated Neurotoxicity in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Receiving Axicabtagene Ciloleucel (Yescarta®)
Actual Study Start Date : October 4, 2019
Actual Primary Completion Date : September 18, 2020
Actual Study Completion Date : September 30, 2020


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Defibrotide

Part 1 (lead-in phase) will evaluate a 2.5 mg/kg/dose regimen before escalating to a 6.25 mg/kg/dose regimen.

After the Safety Assessment Committee establishes the recommended phase 2 dose based on dose-limiting toxicities during Part 1, Part 2 will enroll subjects at the recommended phase 2 dose.

Drug: Defibrotide
  • Part 1: Defibrotide 2.5 mg/kg/dose or 6.25 mg/kg/dose once daily as a single dose on CAR-T Day -5, -4, and -3 before lymphodepletion, then every 6 hours daily for 8 days (CAR-T Day 0 to Day 7).
  • Part 2 Recommended Phase 2 Dose: Defibrotide 6.25 mg/kg/dose once daily as a single dose on CAR-T Day -5, -4, and -3 before lymphodepletion, then every 6 hours daily for 8 days (CAR-T Day 0 to Day 7).




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of CAR-T-associated Neurotoxicity of Any Grade, Defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The primary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade, defined by CTCAE v5.0, which incorporated the 2 stage design.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity Grade 3 or Greater Defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity Grade 3 or greater defined by CTCAE v5.0 by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity (Grade 3 or greater defined by CTCAE v5.0) by CAR-T Day +30.

  2. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity of Any Grade According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity of any grade according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity by CAR-T Day +30 summarized descriptively by any grade according to the ASBMT consensus grading system.

  3. Incidence of CAR-T-Associated Neurotoxicity of Grade 3 or Greater According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity grade 3 or greater according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity by CAR-T Day +30 summarized descriptively by grade 3 or greater according to the ASBMT consensus grading system.

  4. Incidence of Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) of Any Grade According to the ASBMT Consensus Grading System by CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The secondary efficacy endpoint was the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) of any grade according to ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30. The results report the estimated percentage of participants with no CRS any grade according to ASBMT criteria and was summarized descriptively using the ASBMT consensus grading system by CAR-T Day +30.

  5. Use of High Dose Steroid By CAR-T Day +30 [ Time Frame: By CAR-T Day +30 ]
    The percentage of participants using high dose steroids was summarized descriptively. The use of high dose steroids was defined as a dose of dexamethasone of at least 7.5 mg/day or equivalent. Only the Overall Defibrotide: 6.25 mg/kg/dose group was analyzed for this outcome.
