About this trial

This phase II trial tests how well pirtobrutinib (LOXO-305) and venetoclax works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that remains despite treatment (resistant) with covalent bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi). Pirtobrutinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of the a protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving pirtobrutinib and venetoclax may kill more cancer cells in patients with CLL or SLL that is resistant to covalent BTKi.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Rate of undetectable minimal residual disease (uMRD)

The rate of uMRD will be defined as the percentage of patients who have uMRD in both the peripheral blood and bone marrow at C21D1.

Time frame
At cycle 21 day 1 (C21D1) [each cycle lasts 28 days]

Secondary outcomes

1

Best overall response rate (ORR)

Best ORR will be estimated with exact 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
At cycle 21 day 1 (C21D1) [each cycle lasts 28 days]
2

Overall Response Rate (ORR)

ORR will be estimated with exact 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
At cycle 21 day 1 (C21D1) [each cycle lasts 28 days]
3

Progression-free survival (PFS) for all patients

Clinical disease progression will be assessed by International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) 2018 criteria. PFS will be described using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Median and/or estimates at clinically meaningful time points for PFS will be reported with 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
At start of treatment to progression or death up to 18 months after completion of study treatment
4

PFS in patients who achieve uMRD and those who do not achieve uMRD with pirtobrutinib and venetoclax

Clinical disease progression will be assessed by iwCLL 2018 criteria. PFS will be described using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Median and/or estimates at clinically meaningful time points for PFS will be reported with 95% confidence intervals.

Time frame
At end of treatment to progression or death up to 18 months after completion of study treatment
