Brief summary

This is a Phase I/II trial designed to study the toxicity and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of bortezomib in combination with BEAM (carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and to obtain a preliminary estimate of the response rate to this combination.

Detailed description

Primary Objective:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the toxicity and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bortezomib when added to a standard BEAM (carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) conditioning regimen followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Secondary Objective: The secondary objective of the study is to obtain a preliminary estimate of the overall response rate (ORR), progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) with this regimen. Enrolled subjects will receive bortezomib in combination with BEAM (carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT). Phase I treatment will administer bortezomib in four dose cohorts,in addition to the BEAM and ASCT. Three patients will be accrued in each dose cohort with enrollment starting at dose cohort. These subjects will be evaluated to establish the maximum tolerated dose of bortezomib in combination with BEAM autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Once established, the maximum tolerated dose will be utilized in treating an additional 20 subjects. Follow-Up: Data collected will be utilized to obtain a preliminary estimate of the overall response rate, progressions free survival and overall survival using this regimen.

Interventions

DRUGBortezomib

Patients will receive bortezomib in four dose cohorts ( .8. 1.0, 1.3, 1.5 mg/m²). Patients will receive bortezomib on days -11, -8, -5, and -2 before infusion of autologous stem cells.

All study patients will receive BEAM per the standard institution protocol: BCNU (carmustine): 300 mg/m²on day -5 etoposide 100 mg/m² twice daily on days -5, -4, -3, and -2 cytarabine 100 mg/m² twice daily on days -5, -4, -3, -2 melphalan: 140 mg/m² on day -1 before infusion of autologous stem cells.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Bortezomib14 monthsThe maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is defined to be the dose cohort below which 3 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity (DLT), or the highest dose cohort of 1.5 mg/m², if 2 DLT were not observed at any dose cohort.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Preliminary Estimate of Overall Response Rate (ORR)100 day post autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT), one year post ASCTTo obtain a preliminary estimate of overall response rate (ORR). The overall response rate is calculated as the number of patients who achieved complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) divided by the total number of evaluable patients.
Progression-free Survival (PFS), and Overall Survival (OS)one year post autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) , 5 years post ASCTTo obtain a preliminary estimate of PFS and OS. Overall survival (OS) is defined as time from the first chemotherapy administered on the transplant trial until death from any cause. Progression free survival (PFS)is defined as time from therapy until relapse, progression, or death from any cause.

Phase I/II
In Phase 1 of the study, bortezomib was administered in 4 dose cohorts: 0.8 mg/m², 1.0 mg/m², 1.3 mg/m² and 1.5 mg/m². Bortezomib was given on days -11, -8, -5, and -2. All study patients received BEAM conditioning: carmustine (BCNU) 300 mg/m² on day -5, etoposide 100 mg/m² twice daily on days -5, -4, -3, and -2, cytarabine 100 mg/m² twice daily on days -5, -4, -3, and -2, and melphalan 140 mg/m² on day -1 before infusion of autologous stem cells. The objective of phase 1 was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bortezomib in this setting. The MTD was defined by observing any nonhematologic transplantation-related toxicity higher than grade 2 on the Bearman scale occurring between day -11 and engraftment. After the MTD was defined, patients were enrolled in Phase II to obtain a preliminary estimate of overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) using this regimen.
