Ended Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III) Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

A Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of a Combined Regimen of Venetoclax and Obinutuzumab Versus Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide, and Rituximab (FCR)/ Bendamustine and Rituximab (BR) in FIT Patients With Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) without DEL (17P) or TP53 mutation

EU CTIS ID: 2023-504036-17-00

What this study is testing

To evaluate the efficacy of venetoclax (Venclexa® or Venclyxto®) in combination with obinutuzumab (Gazyva® or Gazyvaro®) (VEN + G) compared with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR)/ bendamustine and rituximab (BR) on the basis of minimal residual disease (MRD) response rate

  • Have previously untreated documented CLL according to the International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) criteria
  • Cumulative illness rating scale score <=6 and creatinine clearance >=70 mL/min as calculated by the Standard Cockcroft and Gault Formula
  • Hematology values within the following limits, unless cytopenia is caused by the underlying disease (i.e., no evidence of additional BM dysfunction; e.g., myelodysplastic syndrome, hypoplastic BM): o Absolute neutrophil count >=1.0 × 109/L, unless there is BM involvement o Platelet count >=75 × 109/L and more than 7 days since last transfusion, or >=30 × 109/L if there is BM involvement
  • Adequate liver function as indicated by a total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, and Alanine transaminase <=2 times the institutional upper limit of normal value, unless directly attributable to the patient’s CLL
  • Life expectancy >6 months

  • Patients with small lymphocyclic lymphoma (SLL) only (a diagnosis of CLL/SLL is permitted)
  • Known central nervous system involvement
  • Patients with a history of confirmed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy
  • Detected del (17p) or TP53 mutation (valid test within 6-months from screening is required for randomization)
  • An individual organ/system impairment score of 4 as assessed by the cumulative illness rating scale (CIRS) definition limiting the ability to receive the treatment regimen of this trial with the exception of eyes, ears, nose, throat organ system
