Study on JZP458 for Treating ALL/LBL Patients Allergic to E. Coli-derived Asparaginase
Sponsor: Jazz Pharmaceuticals
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT04943952
This study offers access to a new treatment, JZP458, for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) who are allergic to the standard E. coli-derived asparaginase and cannot use other available treatments.

Program Overview
The purpose of this study is to provide patients with ALL or LBL, who have allergic reactions to the usual E. coli-derived asparaginase, access to a new treatment called JZP458. This treatment is available before it receives full approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and becomes widely available.
Description
JZP458 is a new type of asparaginase enzyme made using a special technology that does not cause allergic reactions in patients who are sensitive to the standard E. coli-derived asparaginase. This study is open to patients of any age with ALL or LBL who have had allergic reactions or other issues with the usual asparaginase treatment. The study aims to see how well patients tolerate JZP458 and how effective it is by measuring the activity of the enzyme in the body.
Patients will receive JZP458 as part of their existing treatment plan, and the medication will be provided for free during the study. The treatment will continue to be available to eligible patients at participating sites until it is officially approved and available for purchase in the United States.
Eligibility Criteria
Adult and pediatric patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) or Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (LBL) who are hypersensitive to E.coli-derived asparaginases (allergic reaction or silent inactivation) and meet the criteria below:
Inclusion Criteria (Initial Requests):
-
Patient (or parent/legally authorized representative thereof) is able to understand and voluntarily give informed consent/assent
-
Patient has a diagnosis of ALL or LBL
-
Patient received appropriate standard treatment without success (or no standard treatment exists for the patient's condition), and no satisfactory alternative drug is available
-
Patient had a ≥ Grade 2 allergic reaction (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] v5.0) to a long-acting E. coli-derived asparaginase OR have silent inactivation
-
Patient, in Investigators' opinion, has fully recovered from their prior allergic reaction to E. coli-derived asparaginase Note: Patients must have completed antihistamine, epinephrine, and/or corticosteroid treatment for the allergic reaction ≥ 24 hours prior to JZP458 administration.
-
Patient has adequate liver function, defined as: direct (conjugated) bilirubin ≤ 3X upper limit of normal (ULN); serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT)(alanine aminotransferase [ALT]), and serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT)(aspartate transaminase [AST]) ≤ 5X ULN
-
For female patients of childbearing potential (i.e., fertile, following menarche) and male patients who have female partners of childbearing potential:
- Patient has agreed to use medically acceptable methods of contraception with their partners for the duration of treatment with JZP458 and for 30 days after the last dose of JZP458.
- Medically acceptable methods of contraception that the patient may use include abstinence, progestogen-only oral hormonal contraception, where inhibition of ovulation is not the primary mode of action; a combination of male condoms with either cap, diaphragm, or sponge with spermicide (double barrier methods).
Exclusion Criteria (Initial Requests):
- Patient is currently taking part in or is eligible for a clinical trial for JZP458
- Patient previously received asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi AND has access to a short-acting non-E. Coliasparaginase
- Patient experienced concern of a possible adverse event (AE) related to asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi
- Patient to receive asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi within 1 week of plans to start JZP458
- Patient is concurrently receiving another investigational agent and/or treated with an investigational device at the same time as JZP458(within 48 hours)
- Patient has a history of ≥ Grade 3 pancreatitis (per CTCAE v5.0)
- Patient has a history of ≥ Grade 3 hypersensitivity to asparaginase Erwinia Chrysanthemi
- Patient has a prior history of asparaginase-associated ≥ Grade 3 (per CTCAE v5.0) haemorrhagic event or asparaginase-associated thrombus requiring anticoagulation therapy, excluding catheter-related thrombotic events
- Female patients who are lactating and do not agree to stop breast-feeding
Eligibility Criteria (Re-Supply Requests)
- Patient remains eligible for inclusion in the Expanded Access Protocol (EAP)
- Patient continues to benefit from treatment with JZP458
- Patient has not encountered unacceptable toxicity
- Patient has not shown signs/symptoms of relapsed or refractory disease
- Patient has not encountered ≥ Grade 3hypersensitivity symptoms
