Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

Study is a phase I study to determine the maximum tolerated dose of adding Loncastuximab Tesirine to Aclabrutinib in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial requires that participants have been on acalabrutinib for at least 3 months, so you will need to continue taking it. The protocol does not specify if you need to stop other medications, but you cannot be on certain immunosuppressive drugs or high doses of corticosteroids.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have been on Acalabrutinib for at least 3 months without disease progression. Participants must have had prior CLL treatment, measurable residual disease, and adequate kidney and liver function. They should not be using G-CSF within 7 days of joining the study.

Inclusion Criteria

I've been on acalabrutinib for 3+ months with no cancer progression.
My leukemia cells show specific markers that indicate CLL.
My liver functions within normal ranges, or I have Gilbert's Disease.
