Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The primary objectives of this study are:

Phase 1: To evaluate the safety of sequenced therapy with lenzilumab and axicabtagene ciloleucel in participants with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma and identify the most appropriate dose of lenzilumab for Phase 2.

Phase 2: To evaluate the incidence of neurologic events with sequenced therapy given at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of lenzilumab in participants with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This study was intended to be a Phase 1/2, but the planned Phase 2 part has been canceled.

All participants who received an infusion of lenzilumab and axicabtagene ciloleucel will be provided the opportunity to transition to a separate long-term follow-up (LTFU) study, KT-US-982-5968.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. For Phase 1: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events Defined as Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) Related to Sequenced Therapy with Lenzilumab and Axicabtagene [Up to 28 days]

      Dose-limiting toxicity is defined as protocol-defined sequenced therapy-related events with onset within the first 28 days following lenzilumab and axicabtagene ciloleucel infusion.

    2. For Phase 2: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Grade 2 or Higher Neurologic Events Within 28 days of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Administration [Up to 28 days]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events [Up to 12 months]

    2. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Serious Adverse Events [Up to 24 months]

    3. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Cytokine Release Syndrome [Up to 24 months]

    4. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Percentage of Participants Experiencing Neurologic Events [Up to 24 months]

    5. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Up to 2 years]

      ORR is defined as the incidence of either a Complete Response (CR) or a Partial Response (PR) per the International Working Group (IWG) Lugano Classification as determined by the study investigators.

    6. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Complete Response (CR) Rate [Up to 2 years]

      CR rate is defined as the incidence of CR per the IWG Lugano Classification as determined by the study investigators

    7. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Duration of Response (DOR) in Participants who Experience an Objective Response [Up to 2 years]

      Among participants who experience an objective response, DOR is defined as the date of participants' first objective response to disease progression per the IWG Lugano Classification as determined by study investigators or death from any cause.

    8. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [Up to 2 years]

      PFS is defined as the time from the axicabtagene ciloleucel infusion date to the date of disease progression per the IWG Lugano Classification as determined by study investigators or death from any cause.

    9. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Overall Survival (OS) [Up to 2 years]

      OS is defined as the time from axicabtagene ciloleucel infusion to the date of death.

    10. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Pharmacodynamics: Levels of Cytokines in Blood [Up to 3 months]

    11. For Phase 1 and Phase 2: Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Pharmacokinetics: Levels of anti-CD19 CAR T Cells in Blood [Up to 12 months]
