About this trial
HEM-iSMART is a master protocol which investigates multiple investigational medicinal products in children, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) ALL and LBL. Sub-protocol E is a phase I/II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of capivasertib + venetocolax in combination with dexamethasone in children and AYA with R/R ped ALL/LBL whose tumor present with alterations of the PAM pathway, or lacking any mutations.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Children ≥ 2 years and ≤ 18 years of age at the time of first diagnosis and less than 21 years at the time of inclusion
Performance status: Karnofsky performance status (for patients >16 years of age) or Lansky Play score (for patients ≤16 years of age) ≥ 50% (Appendix I).
Written informed consent from parents/legal representative, patient, and age-appropriate assent before any study specific screening procedures are conducted, according to local, regional or national guidelines.
For all oral medications patients must be able to comfortably swallow tablets (except for those for which the AAF is available; nasogastric or gastrostomy feeding tube administration is allowed only if indicated).

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Phase I: Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
Defined as the highest dose level tested at which 0/6 or 1/6 patients experiences dose limiting toxicities (DLT) during course 1 with at least 2 patients experiencing DLT at the next higher dose.
Phase II: Best Overall Response Rate (ORR).
For patients with leukemia: CR and MRD response after 1 cycle of treatment. This includes determination of CR, CRp, CRi and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate in patients suffering from overt morphological relapse of T-ALL at time of enrolment (morphological disease (M2/M3)), and the MRD negativity rate in those that entered with high-MRD levels but in morphological CR. These results will together be presented as a composite endpoint Overall Response rate (ORR). MRD negativity will be defined as ≤1x10-4 as generated by multi-parameter flow cytometry. For patients with lymphoma: Response in LBL patients is defined as CR, PR, minor response (MR) as defined in International pediatric NHL response criteria. In case of bone-marrow involvement MRD will be taken into account. For patients with lymphoma: Response in LBL patients is defined as CR, PR, minor response (MR) as defined in International pediatric NHL response criteria.
Secondary outcomes
Overall survival (OS)
Defined as time from C1D1 until death of any cause.
Event-free survival (EFS)
Defined as time from C1D1 to the first event (subsequent relapse after CR (including molecular reappearance), death of any cause, failure to achieve remission (CR, CRp or CRi), or secondary malignancy).
Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR)
Estimate of the risk, that a patient will develop a relapse over a specified period of time.
Number of patients proceeding to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after the experimental therapy.
The rate of those proceeding to subsequent allogenic HSC
