Loncastuximab Tesirine in Combination With Chemotherapy Prior to Stem Cell Transplant for the Treatment of Recurrent or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of loncastuximab tesirine in combination with carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) chemotherapy regimen in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Loncastuximab tesirine is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy with loncastuximab tesirine may kill more cancer cells.
Detailed Description
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of loncastuximab tesirine.
PART I (CONDITIONING): Patients receive loncastuximab tesirine intravenously (IV) on day -7, carmustine IV over 2 hours on day -7, etoposide IV over 1-2 hours twice daily (BID) days -6, -5, -4, and -3, cytarabine IV over 1 hour BID on days -6, -5, -4, and -3, and melphalan IV over 15-20 minutes on day -2. Patients undergo peripheral blood ASCT per standard practice on day 0.
PART II (MAINTENANCE): Beginning 30-90 days after ASCT, patients receive loncastuximab tesirine IV once every 3 weeks (Q3W) for up to 9 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of the study treatment, patients are followed for 2 years.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (Part 1) [Up to 30 days]
Will be descriptive based on the appropriate analysis set and may include summary statistics such as means/median, standard deviations, range for continuous variables, and count/percentage for categorical variables, if applicable.
- Incidence of toxicity requiring dose delay or modification (Part 2) [Up to 30 days]
Will be descriptive based on the appropriate analysis set and may include summary statistics such as means/median, standard deviations, range for continuous variables, and count/percentage for categorical variables, if applicable.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Progression-free survival [Time from receiving loncastuximab tesirine to the first observation of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed at 2 years post-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT)]
Kaplan-Meier curves and median time-to-event estimation with 95% confidence intervals will be presented for time to-event endpoints, if appropriate.
- Overall survival [Time from receiving loncastuximab tesirine to death from any cause, assessed at 2 years post-ASCT]
Kaplan-Meier curves and median time-to-event estimation with 95% confidence intervals will be presented for time to-event endpoints, if appropriate.
