Setting up clinical trials in WM Prof. Dr. C. Buske

Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (WM) Our Challenges

A rare disease with all implications!

  

No lobby No major ‘economic’ interest of pharmaceutical companies

No deep knowledge about this disease in the community of physicians No major interest to participate in clinical trials for physicians

  

Scattered activity in academia Poor coordination of clinical trial activity Nearly no major phase III trials performed until today

Jan G. Waldenström, MD Waldenström J Acta Medica Scandinaviva 1944

Waldenström Macroglobulinemia (WM) How can we overcome all this?

Working together

Forming networks

Speaking with one voice

Coordinating forces and resources

Patients on one side

We as physicians on the other side

Where to go now in Europe

Our Goals: -- setting up clinical trials -- setting up national registries with the ultimate goal of a pan-European registry -- setting up biosampling with a European biobank for WM -- fostering translational research („from bench to bedside “) -- being represented in all major treatment guidelines

Making the disease more ‚public‘

Our Goals: Together with our patients and patient networks!

Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (BTK): A Critical Kinase for Lymphoma Cell Survival and Proliferation

• Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is an essential element of the BCR signaling pathway • Inhibitors of BTK block BCR signaling and induce apoptosis • PCI-32765 (ibrutinib) forms bond with cysteine-481 in BTK • Highly potent BTK inhibition at IC 50 = 0.5 nM • High degree of B-cell specificity • Orally administered once daily dosing 18 3

A randomized phase III study of Ibrutinib p.o.

versus extended Rituximab i.v. therapy in patients with previously treated WM ECWM-R1

European Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia Consortium ECWM-R1 Version 1.1

Study design

European/Australian phase III trial, multicenter, open label, and randomized

Study population: Previously treated patients with WM who have received 1 to 3 prior lines of therapy

EWMC-R1 Version 1.1

Objectives

Primary study objective is Progression Free Survival (PFS)

• Secondary study objectives – Response rate (CR, VGPR, PR, MR) and (ORR) – Toxicity – best response – time to best response – time to first response – time to treatment failure – remission duration – cause specific survival & overall survival EWMC-R1 Version 1.1

Clinical Trial Activity – ECWM - R1 Filing for EMA planned!

R1

/ Relapse

1 : 1 Rituximb 375 mg/m 2 IV weekly for 4 consecutive weeks – week 1-4 and week 13-16 plus Placebo Rituximab plus oral Ibrutinib 420 mg qD continuously until evidence of progressive disease plus Ibrutinib Crossover: Patients who are randomized in the rituximab arm and demonstrate progressive disease, will be allowed to receive ibrutinib
