CZ-WM01: A Phase 2 Clinical Trial to Evaluate Zanubrutinib Combined With BR (Bendamustine/Rituximab) Regimen in Subjects With Newly-diagnosed Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This was a single-arm, multicenter, Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy of zanubrutinib combined with BR (Bendamustine/Rituximab) regimen in Chinese participants with newly-diagnosed Waldenström's macroglobulinemia who exhibited one or more of the criteria for requiring treatment based on consensus guidelines from the 11th International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM). We propose this combination will improve the deep remission compared to single Zanubrutinib or BR regimen and can be a time-limited regimen which will reduce the life-time therapy and benefit the patients.

| Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
The study comprised an initial screening phase (up to 7 days), a single-arm treatment phase, and a follow-up phase. Subjects with newly-diagnosed Waldenström's macroglobulinemia can participate if all eligibility criteria are met. Patients will receive bendamustine and rituximab for 6 28-day cycles. Bendamustine will be given intravenously at 70-90 mg/m2 on days 1 and 2 of each cycle. Rituximab will be given on day 1 of each cycle (375 mg/m2 intravenously), Zanubrutinib will be given orally 160mg Bid per day, up to 12 months. Patients with WM will also have disease assessment with Lymph node ultrasound and abdominal ultrasound each cource, serum IgM, serum protein electrophoresis (SPE), immunofixation (IFA), and viscosity assessments will be measured serially. A bone marrow aspiration and biopsy flow cytometry examination will be done before treatment and at response assessment at cycle 6 and 12. Durability of response will also be assessed every 3 months after treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [up to the end of 12 cycles of treatment(each cycle is 28 days)]
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a minor, partial, very good partial, and complete response
- The best deep response rate [Time Frame: up to the end of 12 cycles of treatment(each cycle is 28 days)]
defined as complete response (CR) and very good partial response (VGPR)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Progression-free Survival (PFS) [Up to 6 years post first dose]
PFS was defined as from the initiation of treatmentuntil to first documentation of progression or death, whichever comes first.
- Overall Survival (OS) [Up to 6 years post first dose]
OS is measured from the date of the initial of treatment to the date of the subject's death.
- minimal residual disease (MRD) rate [Up to 6 years post first dose]
MRD will be assessed at two on treatment timepoints (before start of cycles 7, 12) and every 6 months thereafter. MRD will be measured through bone marrow samples using flow cytometrey.
