isatuximab 10 mg/kg

  • All Genders

Study Summary

Some of the treatments for cancer can cause platelets (the part of the blood that helps with clotting) to decrease. If they are too low, then clinicians may recommend a transfusion (getting platelets from another person added to someone else's body). This usually works to increase the person's platelets to a healthy level, but sometimes it doesn't work. This is called platelet refractoriness. This study is trying to find out whether isatuximab (the study drug) may help people with a certain type of platelet refractoriness by removing some cells in order to make platelet transfusions more effective.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Provision of signed and dated informed consent form

  2. Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for theduration of the study

  3. Male or female, age ≥ 18 years

  4. Diagnosis of immune mediated platelet transfusion refractoriness secondary to classI anti-HLA antibodies according to institutional practice, including calculatedpercent panel-reactive antibodies (%PRA) > 80%

  5. Adequate Organ Function:

  • serum creatinine <= 1.5 x upper limit of normal

  • bilirubin <= 1.5 x upper limit of normal (exceptions for Gilbert's disease)

  • AST and ALT <= 2.5 x upper limit of normal

  • Alkaline phosphatase <= 2.5 x upper limit of normal

  1. For females and males of reproductive potential: agreement to use adequatecontraception (see section 5.3)

  2. Agreement to adhere to Lifestyle Considerations (see Section 5.3) throughout studyduration

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Immune-mediated platelet refractoriness other than anti-HLA antibody-mediated

  2. Non-immune-mediated platelet refractoriness (e.g. splenomegaly or disseminatedintravascular coagulation)

  3. Diagnosis of thrombocytopenia induced by other drugs, such as vancomycin, heparin,or amphotericin

  4. Diagnosis of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura or idiopathic immunethrombocytopenia

  5. Active bleeding

  6. Greater than Grade 2 active graft versus host disease (GVHD) following allogeneicHSCT

  7. Bi-directional ABO mismatched allogeneic stem cell transplantation

  8. Prior administration of daratumumab, isatuximab or any other anti-CD38 antibodies

  9. Known uncontrolled HIV disease and/or active Hepatitis A, B, or C infection

  10. Active systemic infection and severe infections requiring treatment with aparenteral administration of antimicrobials.

  • Controlled systemic infections on antimicrobial therapy that are stable at thetime of screening are not an exclusion criterion.
  1. Hypersensitivity or history of intolerance to steroids, mannitol, pregelatinizedstarch, sodium stearyl fumarate, histidine (as base and hydrochloride salt),arginine hydrochloride, poloxamer 188, sucrose or any of the other components ofstudy intervention that are not amenable to premedication with steroids and H2blockers or would prohibit further treatment with these agents.

  2. Received any investigational drug within 14 days or 5 half-lives of theinvestigational drug prior to initiation of study intervention, whichever is longer.In case of very aggressive disease (i.e acute leukemia) delay could be shortenedafter agreement between sponsor and investigator, in absence of residual toxicitiesfrom previous therapy

  3. Pregnancy or lactation

  4. Any clinically significant, uncontrolled medical conditions that, in theInvestigator's opinion, would expose the patient to excessive risk or may interferewith compliance or interpretation of the study results.

  5. Current receipt of, or expectation to require anti-CD20 therapy, proteasomeinhibitors, intravenous immune globulin ("IVIG"), and plasma exchange therapy duringthe study

Study Design

Total Participants: 3
Treatment Group(s): 1
Primary Treatment: isatuximab 10 mg/kg
Phase: 1
Study Start date:
November 29, 2022
Estimated Completion Date:
June 11, 2024

Study Description

Participants in this study will receive 4 weekly infusions of the study drug, isatuximab, by intravenous infusion. The dose of isatuximab infusions may be larger or smaller and take a longer or shorter time to infuse depending on your weight and time required will decrease from the first to second infusion and from the second to third and fourth infusion. Participants will be observed for 2 hours after each infusion. Participants will continue to receive platelet transfusions according to standard clinical care and will be followed for about 120 days after their last dose of isatuximab.
