Brief summary

This study is a treatment protocol with blinatumomab for infants under 1 year old who are diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a specific unfavorable genetic alteration. The purpose of the study is to improve the outcome of this disease in infants.

Detailed description

All infants that are eligible for this study and for whom the parents/legal representatives give informed consent will be enrolled in this study. All patients will receive one cycle of blinatumomab on top of the standard treatment backbone after induction therapy. Medium risk patients, that respond well to the 1st cycle will be treated with a 2nd cycle of blinatumomab replacing one chemo course after consolidation therapy. If they do not respond well enough they will be treated according to the current treatment standard. Minimal residual disease will be used to determine the response to blinatumomab. High risk patients will be eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation after the first blinatumomab cycle if they are Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) negative (defined as \< 0.01%). Also medium risk patients with insufficient MRD response after induction or after the 1st cycle of blinatumomab will be allocated to high risk treatment and will be eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Interventions

DRUGBlinatumomab

1st cycle: 15 μg/m2/day as a 4 week continuous IV infusion for patients with a M1 marrow. For patients with a M2/M3 marrow a step-dosing strategy is required with a dose of 5 μg/m2/day in week 1 followed by 15 μg/m2/day in weeks 2, 3, and 4.

Patients with newly diagnosed B- precursor ALL or B-cell MPAL (single lineage) according to the WHO classification of tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues (revised 4th edition 2017), with KMT2A-rearrangement. 2. ≤ 365 days of age at the time of diagnosis of ALL. 3.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Event free survival (EFS).5 yearsThe primary endpoint is EFS, defined as the time from diagnosis to resistance to induction, relapse, death from any cause or second malignancy (whichever occurs first), or time to last follow-up (censored) for patients without events.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall survival8 yearsThe endpoints for analysis by risk group will be EFS, cumulative incidence (or percentage) of resistance to induction, cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), death in complete remission (CR) and second malignancy.
Endpoints by risk group8 yearsThe endpoints for analysis by risk group will be EFS, cumulative incidence (or percentage) of resistance to induction, cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), death in complete remission (CR) and second malignancy.
Outcome for the entire study cohort and according to risk group8 yearsOutcome for the entire study cohort and according to risk group will be evaluated in terms of the protocol specific definition of EFS follows: the time from diagnosis to, resistance to proto-col, relapse, death from any cause or second malignancy (whichever occurs first), or time to last follow-up for patients without events. Cumulative incidence (or percentage) of resistance, CIR, death in CR and second malignancy will also be estimated.
Minimal Residual Disease8 yearsMRD response as defined in the protocol and frequencies of MRD levels
CD19 (cluster of differentiation antigen 19) negative relapse8 yearsProportion of CD19 negative relapses in the entire study cohort and according to risk group
Myeloid lineage switches8 yearsProportion of myeloid lineage switches in the entire study cohort and according to risk group
Grade ≥3 adverse event8 yearsProportion of grade ≥3 adverse event (AEs) during the blinatumomab course(s). Proportion of adverse events of special interest (AESIs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) in all protocol phases.
Grade ≥2 cardiac disorders5 yearsProportion of grade ≥2 cardiac disorders at 2 and 5 years after diagnosis
Overall survival after 1st relapse8 yearsOverall survival (OS) after first relapse, defined as the time from first relapse to death from any cause, in the entire study cohort and according to risk group
