Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To study the safety and efficacy of anti-CD20 blockade with ofatumumab in the context of allogeneic HCT in CLL. ;Secondary Objective: - rate of patients who reach allogeneic HCT - rates of grade III/IV adverse drug reactions - Overall and event and progression-free survival - relapse incidence - non-relapse mortality for the ITT population and transplanted patients - Incidences of acute and chronic GVHD;Primary end point(s): Response rate after induction therapy and rate of MRD-negative patients who did not experience relapse, progression or death within the first 14 months after study enrollment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: overall remission rate (CR and PR): immediately after induction therapy MRD-negativity: at 14 months after study inclusion | — |
