Chemotherapy (DA-EPOCH+/-R) and Targeted Therapy (Tafasitamab) for the Treatment of Newly-Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome Negative B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Dose-Adjusted Etoposide, Prednisone, Vincristine, Cyclophosphamide, and Doxorubicin (DA-EPOCH) +/- Rituximab (R) + Tafasitamab-cxix for the Treatment of Newly-Diagnosed Adults With Philadelphia Chromosome-Negative (Ph-) B-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma/Leukemia (B-ALL)

Brief summary (registry, in English)
This phase II clinical trial tests a chemotherapy regimen (dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin with or without rituximab \[DA-EPOCH+/-R\]) with the addition of targeted therapy (tafasitamab) for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome negative (Ph-) B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Chemotherapy drugs, such as those in EPOCH+/-R, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Tafasitamab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It works by helping the body to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. Adding tafasitamab to the DA-EPOCH+/-R regimen may work better than DA-EPOCH+/-R alone in treating newly diagnosed Ph- B-ALL.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- No prior systemic therapy for ALL except to control acute symptoms and/or hyperleukocytosis (e.g., corticosteroids, cytarabine, etc.)
Other illness
- No isolated extramedullary or known parenchymal central nervous system (CNS) disease
- Known hypersensitivity or intolerance to any of the agents under investigation
- Other medical or psychiatric conditions that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude safe participation in the protocol
Age
- May not be pregnant or nursing
- Pregnancy test is only required in women, unless they are highly unlikely to conceive (defined as \[1\] surgically sterilized, or \[2\] postmenopausal \[i.e., a woman who is \> 50 years old or who has not had menses for \>=1 year\], or \[3\] not heterosexually active)
Other
- Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia
Who the study is looking for
- Adults (age 18 years and older) with newly-diagnosed CD19+ Ph- B-ALL
- In the opinion of the treating investigator, patients must be an unsuitable candidate for a pediatric-inspired regimen, reasons for which may include (but not be limited to) older age (e.g., \>= 40 years), practical/logistical barriers to or toxicity concerns from administration of a pediatric-inspired regimen
- Marrow or blood involvement detectable by MFC
- Total bilirubin =\< 2.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless attributed to Gilbert's disease or other causes of inherited indirect hyperbilirubinemia, at which point total bilirubin must be =\< 4.0 x ULN)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 5.0 x institutional ULN. (Note: Patients with liver test abnormalities attributable to hepatic involvement by ALL will be permitted if the total bilirubin is =\< 5.0 x ULN and ALT/AST are =\< 8.0 x ULN)
- Calculated creatinine clearance of \> 30 ml/min, as measured by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation, will be eligible
- As patients with ALL frequently have cytopenias, no hematologic parameters will be required for enrollment or to receive the first cycle of treatment. However, adequate recovery of blood counts will be required to receive subsequent cycles
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2. (Performance status of 3 will be allowed if poor performance status is thought to be directly secondary to ALL)
- Ability to give informed consent and comply with the protocol
- Anticipated survival of at least 3 months, independent of ALL
Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
