| Number of Patients With Dose-Limiting Toxicities Adverse Events (DLTs) | 14 days after first administration of BI836826 (MTD evaluation period) | Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) were defined as any drug-related non-haematologic adverse event of Common Terminology Criteria for AE (CTCAE) Grade 3 or higher, except infusion related reactions associated with the administration of BI 836826. In addition complications due to haematologic AEs were considered as DLTs and were added in more detail in an amendment later on. |
| Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) | 14 days after first administration of BI836826 (MTD evaluation period) | The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was defined as the highest dose of BI 836826 studied for which the incidence of DLT was no more than 17% (i.e. 1 out of 6 patients) during the first treatment cycle. For those patients who received more than 1 cycle of BI 836826, all AEs corresponding to the DLT were considered for the purpose of confirming the MTD and for the selection of the recommended dose for treatment of the expansion cohort and for further development. All DLTs, occurring during the first or repeated treatment cycle were reported as significant AEs. As it was not possible to recruit a sufficient number of patients whilst the first part of the trial was still in progress, the recruitment was ended by the sponsor before the MTD or optimal biological dose (OBD) was reached. |

Participant flow
Recruitment details
This was a Phase-1,single arm,open-label,dose escalation trial, patients with advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia. While the first part of the trial was still in progress, recruitment was ended by the sponsor before the maximum tolerated dose(MTD) or Optimal Biological Dose(OBD) was reached.
Pre-assignment details
All patients were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Patients attended specialist sites to ensure that all patients met all inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients were not to be entered to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were not met.

Outcome results
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was defined as the highest dose of BI 836826 studied for which the incidence of DLT was no more than 17% (i.e. 1 out of 6 patients) during the first treatment cycle. For those patients who received more than 1 cycle of BI 836826, all AEs corresponding to the DLT were considered for the purpose of confirming the MTD and for the selection of the recommended dose for treatment of the expansion cohort and for further development. All DLTs, occurring during the first or repeated treatment cycle were reported as significant AEs. As it was not possible to recruit a sufficient number of patients whilst the first part of the trial was still in progress, the recruitment was ended by the sponsor before the MTD or optimal biological dose (OBD) was reached.
Time frame: 14 days after first administration of BI836826 (MTD evaluation period)
Population: The trial was discontinued prematurely due to lack of recruitment before the MTD based on the frequency of patients with DLTs in the first treatment cycle was reached.
Number of Patients With Dose-Limiting Toxicities Adverse Events (DLTs)
Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) were defined as any drug-related non-haematologic adverse event of Common Terminology Criteria for AE (CTCAE) Grade 3 or higher, except infusion related reactions associated with the administration of BI 836826. In addition complications due to haematologic AEs were considered as DLTs and were added in more detail in an amendment later on.
Time frame: 14 days after first administration of BI836826 (MTD evaluation period)
Population: The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) evaluation set: This includes all patients who were documented to have received at least one dose of trial medication and were not replaced for the MTD evaluation.

Best Overall Response According to 'International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia' (IWCLL) Criteria
Response was assessed according to the IWCLL (International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia) guidelines based on laboratory data from the peripheral blood and clinical examination by the investigator after each cycle prior to administration of the next dose of BI 836826, at the end of the treatment (EOT) visit, and at all Follow-up Visits. Best overall response will be analysed descriptively. Frequency distributions will be used to examine this endpoint.

Best Percentage Change From Baseline in Number of Lymphocytes in the Peripheral Blood
In most patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), malignant B-cells represent the majority of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. Reduction of CLL-cells was assessed in the peripheral blood by absolute lymphocyte count, and flow cytometry. The number of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood was analysed in terms of the best percentage change from baseline until start of subsequent CLL therapy or progressive disease (PD).
Time frame: baseline and ≥8 day after a completed infusion of a cycle and before Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) therapy; data collected up to cut-off date 26Oct2016, Up to 1809 days
Population: All patients who received at least one application of the drug BI 836826, had a baseline and at least one post-baseline assessment of the number of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood.

Failure-free Survival
Failure-free survival (FFS) was defined as the time from the first administration of BI 836826 until disease progression or death, or start of next Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) therapy, whichever occurred first. Disease progression= At least one of the following: * 50+% increase in blood lymphocytes over baseline with an absolute number of B-lymphocytes of at least 5x109/L * Progression of lymphadenopathy * 50+% increase in the previously noted enlargement of the liver or new appearance of hepatomegaly * 50+% increase in the previously noted enlargement of the spleen or new appearance of splenomegaly * 50+% Decrease of platelet counts or to less than 100x109/L secondary to CLL and unrelated to autoimmune cytopenia * Decrease of haemoglobin levels by more than 20 g/L, or to less than 100 g/L secondary to CLL and unrelated to autoimmune cytopenia T Transformation to a more aggressive histology, e.g. Richter syndrome.
