B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a Phase 2b, open-label, multicenter, global study assessing the safety and efficacy of ABT-263 in subjects with B-cell CLL who have failed at least one prior fludarabine-containing regimen.
Interventions
Continuous dosing until disease progression using one of the following formulations: 25 mg/mL oral solution OR 50 mg/mL oral solution OR 2.0 grams/bottle powder for oral solution of 25 mg/mL when mixed OR 2.0 grams/bottle powder for oral solution of 50 mg/mL when mixed

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* \>= 18 yrs of age, have B-cell CLL, failed at least 1 prior fludarabine-containing regimen. * Refractory to 1 fludarabine-containing regimen is defined as failure to achieve at least PR to the last fludarabine-containing regimen received, or disease progression while receiving the last fludarabine-containing regimen, or disease progression in responders (i.e., achieved a PR or CR) within 6 mos of the last cycle of the last fludarabine-containing regimen received (e.g., fludarabine monotherapy, FR, or FC) or in responders (i.e., achieved a PR or CR ) within 24 mos of the last cycle of FCR. * Intolerant to fludarabine is defined as discontinuation of therapy within 2 cycles due to side effects/toxicity from the last fludarabine-containing regimen. * ECOG score of \<=1. * Adequate coagulation, renal, & hepatic function at Screening as follows: * Serum creatinine \<= 2.0 mg/dL or calculated creatinine clearance \>= 50 mL/min; * AST & ALT \<= 3.0 x ULN; * Bilirubin \<= 1.5 x ULN. * Gilbert's Syndrome may have a Bilirubin \> 1.5 x ULN; aPTT, PT, not to exceed 1.2 x ULN. * Adequate bone marrow (BM) independent of any growth factor support (with the exception of subjects with BM heavily infiltrated with underlying disease \[80% or more\] who may use growth factor support to achieve adequate BM) at Screening as follows: * ANC \>= 1000/µL; * Platelets \>= 75,000/mm3 (entry platelet count must be independent of transfusion within 14 days of Screening); * Hemoglobin \>= 9.0 g/dL. * History of autologous BM transplant must be \> 6 mos post transplant (prior to the 1st dose of study drug) & have adequate BM independent of any growth factor support (with the exception of subjects with BM that is heavily infiltrated with underlying disease \[80% or more\] who may use growth factor support to achieve adequate BM) at Screening as follows: * ANC \>= 1500/µL; * Platelets \>= 125,000/mm3; * Hemoglobin \>= 10.0 g/dL. * Female subjects must be surgically sterile, postmenopausal (at least 1 year), or have negative results on a pregnancy test. * All female subjects not surgically sterile or postmenopausal (at least 1 year) & non-vasectomized male subjects must practice birth control.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Assess the safety of ABT-263 by evaluating study drug exposure, adverse events, serious adverse events, all deaths, as well as changes in laboratory determinations and vital sign parameters. | monthly (at a minimum) |
| Assess the objective response rate (partial response [PR] and confirmed complete response [CR]) of B-cell CLL subjects treated with ABT-263. | Every 3 months |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Assess the effects of ABT-263 on duration of overall response, PFS and overall survival in subjects with B-cell CLL. | Every 3 months |
| Assess the effects of ABT-263 on time to response, 12-month survival rate, time to disease progression (TTP), and disease control rate in subjects with B-cell CLL . | Every 3 months |
| Investigate the effects of ABT-263 on quality of life (FACT-Leu and EQ-5D), ECOG performance status, and biomarkers in subject with B-cell CLL. | Every 3 months |
