Who can take part

AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for adults whose T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-lymphoblastic lymphoma has come back or did not respond to treatment.

Age
18 years or older.
Sex
All sexes can join.
Disease stage
Relapsed or refractory T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-lymphoblastic lymphoma. Disease must be found in bone marrow or blood (at least 5% lymphoblasts, or measurable residual disease above the 10-4 level). Disease outside the bone marrow that shows on a CT scan also counts. Performance status 0-2.
Earlier treatment
At least 2 weeks since major surgery or radiation therapy. A wash-out of 4 half-lives is needed after other investigational trials. Recovery from serious side effects of earlier treatment is needed.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Active leukemia in the central nervous system
  • Active or chronic hepatitis B or C infection
  • Another active cancer (some limited exceptions apply)
  • Uncontrolled heart disease or other unstable or severe medical condition
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women

The registry criteria, word for word

Show all 18 criteriaShow less

Who can take part

  • Relapsed or refractory patients with T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-lymphoblastic lymphoma
  • 18 years old or older
  • Bone marrow or peripheral blood involvement with ≥5% lymphoblasts or measurable residual disease with >10-4 level detected by multiparameter flow cytometry or next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based measurable residual disease (ClonoSEQ, Adaptive Technologies). Patients with isolated extramedullary disease that is measurable by computed tomography (CT) scan are also eligible
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-2
  • Adequate organ function as defined by all of the following:; Creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min, determined by the Cockroft-Gault formula, or measured by a 24-hour urine collection; Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN (unless considered due to Gilbert's syndrome or of non-hepatic origin i.e,, leukemic involvement). For patients with Gilbert's syndrome, bilirubin ≤1.5 x of their baseline bilirubin level will be required
  • Participants must be at least 2 weeks from major surgery or radiation therapy. A wash-out period of 4 half-lives is required for patients who participated in other investigational trials. These patients must have recovered from clinically significant toxicities related to these prior treatments
  • Participants must voluntarily sign and date an informed consent, approved by an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)/Institutional Review Board (IRB), prior to the initiation of any screening or study-specific procedures
  • Females of childbearing potential will use effective contraception during protocol treatment and for at least 8 months after the last dose. Males with female partners of reproductive potential will use effective contraception during protocol treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose. A patient is of childbearing potential if, in the opinion of the treating investigator, he/she is biologically capable of having children and is sexually active. Female patients who are not of childbearing potential (ie, meet at least one of the following criteria):; Have undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or have medically confirmed ovarian failure; or are medically confirmed to be post-menopausal (cessation of regular menses for at least 12 consecutive months with no alternative pathological or physiological cause)
  • Participants who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures

Who cannot take part

  • Major surgery within <2 weeks before randomization
  • Pregnant females; breastfeeding females; males with female partners of reproductive potential and females of childbearing potential not using highly effective contraception or not agreeing to continue highly effective contraception for a minimum of 5 months after the last dose of investigational product if male and 8 months after the last dose of investigational product if female
  • Active or chronic hepatitis B or C infection as evidenced by hepatitis B surface antigen and anti-hepatitis C antibody positivity, respectively, or known seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Patients with HIV but an undetectable viral load are eligible for enrollment
  • Unstable or severe uncontrolled medical condition (eg, unstable cardiac function or unstable pulmonary condition
  • Uncontrolled cardiac disease
  • Other severe acute, chronic medical, psychiatric condition, or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the treating physician, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study
  • Concurrent active malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or localized prostate cancer that has been definitely treated with radiation or surgery. Patients with previous malignancies are eligible provided that they have been disease free for ≥2 years or are not currently requiring treatment
  • Active central nervous system (CNS) leukemia
  • Participation in other investigational studies during active treatment phase

About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The purpose of this study is to learn more about LP-118 (an experimental drug) and its side effects and decide on acceptable doses. The purpose of this study is to determine if LP-118 can be given safely with another medicine called ponatinib, that is FDA-approved for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The group in the trial

  • All Participants (Single Arm)Treatment being tested

    All study participants will receive LP-118 and ponatinib. The initial dose of LP-118 to be tested is 100 mg, and initial dose of ponatinib to be tested is 30 mg. Higher doses of LP-118 will only be tested if the study doctor feels it is safe to do so. A member of the study team will let study participants know which doses they are assigned. Study drugs will be given in 21-day cycles. There will be 7 study visits in cycle 1 (on Days 1, 5, 6, 7, 15, 22, and 28). LP-118 and ponatinib will be taken at home every day. Dexamethasone will be taken between days 1-7 and days 15-22. For Cycles 2-12, study participants will have 5 study visits per cycle (on Days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 28). On all days, study participants will take LP-118 and ponatinib at home. Participants in this group will also receive standard of care vincristine, dexamethasone, and methotrexate during study cycles.

    Treatment: LP-118, Ponatinib, Vincristine, Dexamethasone, and Methotrexate
