Summary
This trial tests a new treatment combining inotuzumab ozogamicin and chemotherapy for elderly patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The drug targets and kills cancer cells, aiming to improve outcomes for those who can't undergo intensive therapy or have had a recurrence. The study will determine the appropriate dose and evaluate the treatment's effectiveness and side effects.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients aged 60+ with untreated acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), including those unfit for intensive chemotherapy due to comorbidities like heart or kidney disease. It's also open to any age with refractory-relapsed ALL, certain high-grade B-cell lymphomas, and marrow involvement. Excluded are those with newly diagnosed Burkitt's Leukemia/Lymphoma, T-cell ALL/lymphoma, active heart disease, ejection fraction <40%, active hepatitis, or who are pregnant/breastfeeding.
What is being tested?
The trial tests the safety and effectiveness of inotuzumab ozogamicin combined with chemotherapy in treating ALL. Inotuzumab ozogamicin targets cancer cells by delivering a toxin directly to them. The study includes other drugs like blinatumomab that help the immune system fight cancer and various chemotherapies aimed at stopping cancer cell growth.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to the monoclonal antibody therapy such as infusion reactions and organ inflammation; toxicity from the delivered toxin affecting liver function; common chemo side effects like nausea, fatigue, hair loss; increased risk of infections; and potential impact on blood cell counts leading to anemia or bleeding issues.

Other Research
Common treatments for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) often involve monoclonal antibodies and immunotherapies that target specific antigens on cancer cells. Inotuzumab Ozogamicin, for example, is a monoclonal antibody linked to a toxic agent (CalichDMH) that specifically targets CD22 positive cancer cells, delivering the toxin directly to the cancer cells and minimizing damage to healthy cells.
This targeted approach is crucial for ALL patients as it increases the efficacy of the treatment while reducing side effects, leading to better outcomes and improved quality of life. Other similar treatments include blinatumomab, which engages T-cells to attack cancer cells, and CAR-T cell therapies, which modify a patient's own T-cells to better recognize and kill leukemia cells.
