A Phase 3 Trial Investigating Blinatumomab (IND# 117467, NSC# 765986) in Combination with Chemotherapy in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Standard Risk or Down syndrome B-Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) and the Treatment of Patients with Localized B-Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (B-LLy)
Objective
Primary Aims To determine in a randomized manner if the addition of 2 cycles of blinatumomab to standard therapy improves disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with SR B-ALL and higher risk features (SR-High), and patients with standard-risk average (SR-Avg) B-ALL who are negative for minimal residual disease (MRD) by flow cytometry but have detectable or indeterminate MRD as measured by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) at end of Induction (EOI).
To confirm that boys in the standard-risk favorable (SR-Fav) subset of B-ALL, with or without DS, will maintain a 5-year DFS of greater than 93% when treated with a standard chemotherapy regimen with a treatment duration of 2 years from the start of Interim Maintenance I (IM1).
