Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of pralatrexate in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) regimen in patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (PTCL)	Drug: Pralatrexate Injection	Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, two-part, dose-finding, dose-escalation study.

The study is divided into two parts:

Part 1

Up to five sequential dose cohorts will enroll a maximum of 6 patients each. Escalation of the pralatrexate dose, after CHOP administration (Fol-CHOP), will continue in a traditional 3+3 design, until determination of the MTD. If the MTD is not reached, the Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) of pralatrexate in combination with CHOP will be 30 mg/m2 IV on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle for up to 6 cycles.

The first cohort will begin with three patients with dose A and CHOP at full dose. If none of the first three patients experiences a Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT), the next three patients will be enrolled in next higher dose cohort. If one of the first three patients in the first cohort experiences DLTs, an additional three patients will be enrolled into that cohort. If 2 or 3 of the first 3 patients experience DLTs, then the MTD is not found.

For cohorts 2, 3, 4, and 5, If none of the first three patients experiences a DLT, the next three patients will be enrolled in next higher dose cohort. If one of the first three patients in the first cohort experiences DLTs, an additional three patients will be enrolled into that cohort. If 2 or 3 of the first 3 patients experience DLTs, then the previous cohort will be considered the MTD and up to an additional 10 patients will be enrolled at that dose in Part 2 of the study.

Part 2

Once the MTD for the Fol-CHOP regimen has been established in Part 1 of the study, an additional 10 patients will be treated at the MTD (or MAD if MTD not reached) to confirm tolerability. Additionally, the PK of the established MTD of pralatrexate, when administered with CHOP at full dose, will be evaluated in these 10 patients.

Intervention/Treatment

Experimental: Part 1: Dose Finding, Cohort 1 Dose finding Phase Intervention: Folotyn (Pralatrexate Injection) CHOP: Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone The first cohort will begin with three patients with dose A of pralatrexate plus CHOP at full dose. The second cohort will begin with three patients with dose B of pralatrexate plus CHOP at full dose. The third cohort will begin with three patients with dose C of pralatrexate plus CHOP at full dose. The fourth cohort will begin with three patients with dose D of pralatrexate plus CHOP at full dose. The fifth cohort will begin with three patients with dose E of pralatrexate plus CHOP at full dose. Part 2: Dose Expansion, Additional ten patients will be enrolled at the MTD or MAD (if the MTD is not reached) plus CHOP at full dose in this part of the study. Blood samples for PK analysis of pralatrexate will be collected at various intervals pre and post pralatrexate injection during cycle 1, Dose 1.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

1. Maximum Tolerated Dose [126 Days]

   To evaluate the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of pralatrexate in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) regimen in patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL)
