A Dose-escalating Pilot Study of Orelabrutinib for Newly-diagnosed PCNSL

Study Purpose

This is a single arm, single center, open label pilot study of Orelabrutinib combined with Rituximab, high-dose (HD) Methotrexate and Dexamethasone in newly-diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphpoma (PCNSL). The purpose is to evaluate the safety and to find the optimal dose of Orelabrutinib and Methotrexate in this combination treatment for newly-diagnosed PCNSL patients.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05036577
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

The eligible patients will be treated with Orelabrutinib combined with Rituximab, high-dose Methotrexate and Dexamethasone during induction treatment (6-8 cycles; 21 days/cycle): Rituximab 375 mg/m2, intravenous infusion, d1; HD-MTX 3.5 g/m2 intravenous infusion (3h), d2; Dexamethasone 10-15 mg, iv, d1-4. Orelabrutinib will be given 72h after MTX infusion or until MTX clearance. The study will investigate optimal dose combination of Orelabrutinib and MTX implementing BOIN waterfall design. The starting dose of Orelabrutinib is 150 mg/d and the dose will be escalated to 200 mg/d, throughout the whole cycle. Meanwhile, the starting dose of MTX is 3g/m2 and will be escalated to 5g/m2, throughout induction phase. Dose escalation and movement in dose matrix will be determined by BOIN algorithm. For CR/CRu patients after completion of induction treatment, daily Orelabrutinib will be administered as maintenance treatment for up to 1 year or until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, death, informed consent withdrawal or lost of follow up (whichever occurs first). Patients will be evaluated every 2 cycles during induction therapy and every 12 weeks during maintenance therapy.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: ORMD (Orelabrutinib, Rituximab, Methotrexate and Dexamethasone)

Patients were treated for 6-8 cycles of induction therapy with 21 days per cycle, receiving rituximab (375mg/m2 on day 1), dexamethasone (10-15mg on d1-d4), MTX (d2, 3.5g/m2 or 5g/m2), and orelabrutinib (once daily, after MTX clearance, 150mg/d, or 200mg/d), followed by orelabrutinib maintenance up to one year among CR/CRu patients or until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, death, informed consent withdrawal or lost of follow up (whichever occurs first). The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the combination of orelabrutinib and MTX with R and D and investigate the safety and tolerability of this regimen using Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) waterfall design to determine rule of dose escalation and movement among dose combination matrix to identify MTD contour.
