Study on Mini-Hyper-CVD with Rituximab, Inotuzumab Ozogamicin, and Blinatumomab for Relapsed B-Cell Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia in Children
Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05645718
This clinical trial is testing a new treatment combination for children and young adults with B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) that has returned or not responded to previous treatments. The study aims to see if this combination can effectively control the disease.

Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to find out if a combination of chemotherapy drugs (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and dexamethasone) along with other medications (rituximab, blinatumomab, and inotuzumab ozogamicin) can help control B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in children and young adults whose cancer has come back or not responded to treatment. The treatment is given in a specific sequence and includes chemotherapy delivered directly into the spine.
Description
The main goal of this study is to see how well the combination of mini-hyper-CVD chemotherapy with rituximab, inotuzumab ozogamicin, and blinatumomab works in treating children and young adults with relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Researchers will measure the success of the treatment by looking at how many patients achieve a complete response, meaning no signs of cancer are found.
Secondary goals include evaluating the overall survival of patients, how long they remain free of cancer events, and the safety of the treatment. Researchers will also explore how genetic changes in the leukemia cells relate to the success of the treatment and the possibility of needing a stem cell transplant.
Participants in the study will receive a combination of chemotherapy drugs and other medications in a specific order. The treatment includes drugs given directly into the spine to target cancer cells in the central nervous system. The study will monitor the patients' response to the treatment and any side effects they may experience.
