About this trial

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of iberdomide when given together with chemoimmunotherapy drugs and to see how well it works in treating patients with neuroblastoma that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed), that does not respond to treatment (refractory), or that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive) following prior chemoimmunotherapy. Iberdomide is a cereblon-modulating agent. It works by helping the immune system kill tumor cells. Chemoimmunotherapy is chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide and topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with dinutuximab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factors (GM-CSF), such as sargramostim, may increase the production of blood cells and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Giving iberdomide with chemoimmunotherapy may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with relapsed, refractory, or progressive neuroblastoma following prior chemoimmunotherapy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients must be ≥ 1 year of age and ≤ 30 years of age at the time of study enrollment

Patients must have had histologic verification of neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma or demonstration of neuroblastoma cells in the bone marrow with elevated urinary catecholamines (i.e. > 2 x upper limit of normal [ULN]), at the time of initial diagnosis

Progressive/relapsed or refractory (defined as persistent disease with overall response no better than minor response [MR] to prior therapy per revised International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria [INRC]) neuroblastoma based on the revised INRC

Primary refractory disease

Disqualifiers

Patients who received allogeneic stem cell therapy will be excluded

Patients must have been off pharmacologic doses of systemic steroids for at least 7 days prior to enrollment. Patients who require or are likely to require pharmacologic doses of systemic corticosteroids while receiving treatment on this study are ineligible. The only exception is for patients known to require 2 mg/kg or less of hydrocortisone (or an equivalent dose of an alternative corticosteroid) as premedication for blood product administration in order to avoid allergic transfusion reactions. The use of conventional doses of inhaled steroids for the treatment of asthma is permitted, as is the use of physiologic doses of steroids for patients with known adrenal insufficiency. Patients on any other immunosuppressive medications (e.g. cyclosporine, tacrolimus) are not eligible

Patients with untreated CNS disease will be excluded. If the CNS disease has been adequately treated (e.g., surgical resection and radiation; or radiation alone) and there is no evidence of progression in the CNS, then the patient will be eligible

Patients with a history of having to permanently discontinue anti-GD2 therapy or sargarmostim (GM-CSF) due to drug-related toxicity will be excluded

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of therapy-associated dose limiting toxicities (Phase 1)

Graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0.

Time frame
During cycle 1 (Cycle length = 28 days)
2

Recommended phase 2 dose (Phase 1)

Will be assessed by determining the recommended phase 2 dose of iberdomide administered in combination with dinutuximab, cyclophosphamide, topotecan, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) using the rolling six design.

Time frame
Up to the completion of phase 1
3

Proportion of eligible patients who are responders (Phase 2)

Responders are defined as patients who achieve a minor response (MR) or better, per the revised International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (INRC), as their best overall response at any time post-randomization up through the end of cycle 12. Will be evaluated by Boschloo's test to compare the response rates in the two arms, and the futility monitoring rules. The response rate by the end of 12 cycles as determined by central review will be calculated in each arm, including placement of a 95% confidence interval (CI). If the response rate on Arm B is significantly better, then it will be considered a therapeutic regimen worthy of further testing in patients with high-risk neuroblastoma. In addition, the rate of complete response + partial response by the end of 12 cycles as determined by central review will be calculated in each arm, including placement of a 95% CI, as well as response within each of the INRC components.

Time frame
Post-randomization up through the end of cycle 12 (Cycle length = 28 days)

Secondary outcomes

1

Response rate (Phase 1)

The response rate by the end of 12 cycles as determined by the institution will be calculated in the whole cohort, including placement of a 95% CI.

Time frame
Up to 12 cycles (Cycle length = 28 days)
2

Progression-free survival (Phase 2)

Will be assessed for Phase 2 patients receiving dinutuximab, cyclophosphamide, and topotecan with and without the addition of iberdomide. Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated by arm and compared using log-rank tests.

From the time of randomization to the occurrence of relapse, progressive disease, or death, assessed up to 5 years
3

Overall survival (Phase 2)

Will be assessed for Phase 2 patients receiving dinutuximab, cyclophosphamide, and topotecan with and without the addition of iberdomide. Kaplan-Meier curves will be generated by arm and compared using log-rank tests.
