About

This is a single arm, open-label, multi-center study designed to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of pralatrexate when administered concurrently with vitamin B12 and folic acid supplementation to patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma(PTCL).

Full description

The primary objective of this study is to confirm the objective response rate (ORR) among Chinese subjects with relapsed or refractory PTCL treated with pralatrexate together with concurrent vitamin B12 and folic acid supplementation

Primary endpoint is objective Response Rate by International Working Group Criteria

This study includes 3 phases: Screening, Treatment (pralatrexate) and Follow-up phases.

Screening Phase:

The screening phase will be up to 28 days duration (depending on availability of lab results).

Treatment (pralatrexate) Phase:

The start of study treatment (pralatrexate) is defined as the initiation of pralatrexate. Patients will attend the clinic weekly for 6 weeks of a 7-week cycle to receive pralatrexate, and will be examined by the treating physician. One cycle of pralatrexate therapy is 7 weeks in duration and consists of 6 weekly doses of pralatrexate administered via intravenous (IV) push over 3-5 minutes, followed by 1 week of rest.

Evaluation of response must be performed within 7 days prior to the projected first dose of cycle 2-4 and then within 7 days prior to the projected first dose of every even-numbered subsequent cycle (ie, prior to cycles 6, 8, etc.). Although radiological response assessments have been scheduled every 14 weeks, unscheduled radiological response assessments will be performed earlier if clinical progression is suspected.

Treatment with pralatrexate will continue until 24 months of administration, or until documented disease progression; unacceptable adverse event(s) indicating intolerance of the lowest study dose allowed (20 mg/m2/week); omission of 3 sequential doses of pralatrexate due to a treatment-related AE; 3-week lapse between pralatrexate doses; development of an AE, intercurrent illness, condition, or procedural complication that may interfere with the subject's participation; investigator's decision to withdraw the subject; subject withdraws consent; pregnancy of the subject; noncompliance with trial treatment or procedure requirements; or administrative reasons.

Follow-up phase:

All patients who received at least 1 dose of pralatrexate are to attend the Safety Follow-up Visit [30 (± 5) days after the last dose of pralatrexate] and the protocol defined procedures and evaluations will be performed.

After the Safety Follow-up Visit, Routine Follow-up Visits will be based on standard clinical care. All patients who received at least 1 dose of pralatrexate are to attend Routine Follow-up Visits, which will occur every 3 months (± 2 weeks) for determination of progression of disease, subsequent treatment initiation for T-cell lymphoma and survival after the Safety Follow-up Visit for a total duration of 24 months after the last dose of pralatrexate. The protocol-defined procedures/evaluations should be performed at each Routine Follow-up Visit.

Subject may not have received an experimental drug or biologic as their only prior therapy. Subject must have clear PD after the last treatment received. Subject should have at least 1 biopsy from initial diagnosis or in the relapsed setting to confirm the diagnosis of PTCL. Subject must have recovered from the toxic effects of prior therapy.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status ≤ 2.
At least 18 years of age.
Expected life expectancy ≥ 3 months.
Adequate hematological, hepatic, and renal function as defined by:
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1000/uL (or 1*109/L), platelet count ≥ 100,000/uL (or 100*109/L) (at both screening and within 3 days prior to dosing on cycle 1, day 1)
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dL, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) (AST/ALT < 5 X ULN if documented hepatic involvement with lymphoma)
- Creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL (or 132.6 µmol/L) or a calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min
Women of childbearing potential must have agreed to practice a medically acceptable contraceptive regimen from study treatment initiation until at least 30 days after the last administration of pralatrexate and must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to the first day of study treatment. Subjects who are postmenopausal for at least 1 year (> 12 months since last menses) or are surgically sterilized did not require this test.
Men who are not surgically sterile must agree to practice a medically acceptable contraceptive regimen from study treatment initiation until at least 90 days after the last administration of pralatrexate.
Subject gives written informed consent (IC).
