A Study to Evaluate the Tolerability, Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Antitumor Activity of Loncastuximab Tesirine in Combination With Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone (R-CHOP) in Participants With Previously Untreated Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (LOTIS-8)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of loncastuximab tesirine in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy, and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose for expansion (RDE) for the combination therapy.

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 1b, open-label, multi-center study in participants with previously untreated DLBCL, with a dose escalation part followed by dose expansion part.
Participants will be treated by loncastuximab tesirine in combination with R CHOP.
The duration of the study participation for each participant is defined as the time from the date of signed written informed consent to the completion of the follow-up period, withdrawal of consent, lost to follow-up, or death, whichever occurs first.
The study will include a Screening Period (of up to 28 days), a Treatment Period of 6 cycles (cycles of 3 weeks), and a Follow-up Period (approximately every 12 week visits) for up to approximately 3 years from end-of-treatment (EOT).

|---|---|
| Experimental: Part 1: Dose Escalation Participants will receive escalating doses of loncastuximab tesirine (initial dose of 60 μg/kg and highest dose possibly tested of 150 µg/kg) in combination with R-CHOP (rituximab 375 mg/m^2, cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m^2, doxorubicin 50 mg/m^2, vincristine 1.4 mg/m^2, and prednisone 100 mg/day) according to a standard 3+3 dose escalation design. The dose escalation part will be completed once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RDE) has been identified. |

-
Availability of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue sample. (If tissue block is not available, slides from a FFPE block may be acceptable for eligibility upon consultation with the Sponsor)
-
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2
-
Adequate organ function as defined by screening laboratory values within the following parameters:
-
Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 × 10^3/μL (off growth factors at least 72 hours)
-
Platelet count ≥75 × 10^3/μL without transfusion in the past 7 days
-
Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL (4.96 mmol/L), transfusion allowed
-
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) ≤2.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN)
-
Total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN (participants with known Gilbert's syndrome may have a total bilirubin up to ≤3 × ULN)
-
Calculated creatinine clearance >30 mL/min by the Cockcroft and Gault equation
Note: A laboratory assessment may be repeated a maximum of two times during the Screening period to confirm eligibility.
-
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≥50%, assessed by echocardiography or cardiac multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan
-
Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from the time of giving informed consent until at least 9 months after the last dose of study drug. Men with female partners who are of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from the time of giving informed consent until at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug.
Women of childbearing potential are defined as sexually mature women who have not undergone bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy; or who have not been postmenopausal (i.e., who have not menstruated at all) for at least one year. A postmenopausal state is defined as no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause. A high follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level in the postmenopausal range may be used to confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using hormonal contraception or hormonal replacement therapy. However, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement is insufficient.
Highly effective forms of birth control are methods that achieve a failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly. Highly effective forms of birth control include: hormonal contraceptives (oral, injectable, patch, intrauterine devices), male partner sterilization, or total abstinence from heterosexual intercourse, when this is the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant.
Note: The double-barrier method (e.g., synthetic condoms, diaphragm, or cervical cap with spermicidal foam, cream, or gel), periodic abstinence (such as calendar, symptothermal, post ovulation), withdrawal (coitus interruptus), lactational amenorrhea method, and spermicide-only are not acceptable as highly effective methods of contraception.
