Acalabrutinib, Umbralisib, and Ublituximab for the Treatment of Previously Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase II trial studies the effects of acalabrutinib, umbralisib, and ublituximab in treating previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma. Acalabrutinib and umbralisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Ublituximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving acalabrutinib and umbralisib with ublituximab may work better in treating mantle cell lymphoma.

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
- Evaluate the anti-tumor activity of acalabrutinib, umbralisib and ublituximab (AU2) regimen as induction therapy in patients with treatment-naïve mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), as assessed by the complete response (CR) rate.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
-
Evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) to AU2 in treatment-naive MCL. II. Evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and duration of response (DOR) in patients with treatment-naïve MCL who received AU2.
-
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of AU2 in patients with treatment-naive MCL.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
-
Examine the T-cell populations and functionality in patients treated with AU2.
-
Explore the predictive value of minimal residual disease (MRD) in MCL. III. Explore the mechanisms of resistance to AU2 therapy.
OUTLINE:
INDUCTION: Patients receive ublituximab intravenously (IV) over 90 minutes-4 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and days 1 of cycles 2-6. Patients also receive acalabrutinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) and umbralisib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
MAINTENANCE: Patients receive ublituximab IV on day 1 on cycles 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30. Patients also receive acalabrutinib Po BID and umbralisib PO QD on day 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 24 cycles in the absence of disease progression of unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days and then every 6 months for 2 years.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Complete response (CR) [up to 24 weeks]
Defined as the proportion of response-evaluable participants that achieve a CR at the end of induction therapy. CR rate after Induction therapy will be estimated by the proportion of response-evaluable patients achieving CR after Induction therapy, along with the 95% exact binomial confidence interval.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Overall response rate (ORR) [Up to 2 years]
Defined as the proportion of response-evaluable participants that achieve a best response of either CR or partial response (PR) during protocol therapy. ORR rate after Induction therapy will be estimated by the proportion of response-evaluable patients achieving ORR after Induction therapy, along with the 95% exact binomial confidence interval.
- Progression-free survival (PFS) [From start of protocol treatment to time of disease relapse/progression, start of non-protocol anti-lymphoma therapy, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier, assessed up to 2 years]
PFS will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier along with the Greenwood estimator of standard error; 95% confidence interval will be constructed based on log-log transformation. Median PFS will be estimated when available. Observed toxicities of Induction therapy and Maintenance therapy will be summarized by type, severity, and attribution.
- Overall survival (OS) [From start of protocol treatment to time of death due to any cause, assessed up to 2 years]
OS will be estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier along with the Greenwood estimator of standard error; 95% confidence interval will be constructed based on log-log transformation. Median OS will be estimated when available. Observed toxicities of Induction therapy and Maintenance therapy will be summarized by type, severity, and attribution.
- Duration of response (DOR) [Up to 2 years]
- Toxicity of ublituximab regimen [Up to 2 years]
Toxicity and adverse events will be recorded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 5.0 scale. Observed toxicities will be summarized by type (organ affected or laboratory determination such as absolute neutrophil count), severity (by NCI CTCAE v5.0 and nadir or maximum values for lab measures), date of onset, duration, reversibility, and attribution.
Other Outcome Measures
- T-cell populations [Up to 2 years]
- Minimal residual disease [Up to 2 years]
- Gene expression/mutation profiles [Up to 2 years]
