Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether treatment with ibrutinib as a monotherapy results in a clinically significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS) as compared to treatment with ofatumumab in patients with relapsed or refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)

Detailed description

Study PCYC-1112-CA is a randomized, multicenter, open-label, phase 3 study of the Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor Ibrutinib (PCI-32765) versus Ofatumumab in patients with Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma. Patients randomized to the ofatumumab arm may be considered to receive next subsequent therapy with ibrutinib.

Interventions

DRUGofatumumab

The ofatumumab (IV) dosage and schedule is 12 doses administered over 24 weeks or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity. Week 1: 300 mg initial dose Week 2 through 8: 2,000 mg (once weekly) Week 12, 16, 20 and 24: 2,000 mg (every 4 weeks)

DRUGibrutinib

ibrutinib 420 mg (3 x 140-mg capsules) will be administered orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
