Study Summary

This trial is testing if a drug that reversibly inhibits PI3K is safe and effective in preventing cytokine release syndrome and enhancing the efficacy of CAR T-cells.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with certain types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma eligible for CAR T-cell therapy, not B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Participants must understand the study and consent to it, use effective contraception, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. They can't have allergies to duvelisib or similar drugs, uncontrolled infections, significant heart/kidney/liver disease, other cancers (except some skin cancers), active CNS involvement by malignancy, or be on strong CYP3A inducers/inhibitors.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests if duvelisib enhances CAR T-cell persistence and efficacy in treating hematologic malignancies post-CAR T-cell therapy. It also examines whether duvelisib can prevent cytokine release syndrome safely. Patients receive this PI3K inhibitor following their standard CAR T-cell treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Duvelisib may cause side effects like diarrhea, fever, fatigue, rash or itching skin; less common are serious lung problems (pneumonitis), liver damage (hepatotoxicity), severe skin reactions (exfoliative dermatitis) and intestinal perforation.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose Escalation Stage: DuvelisibExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Duvelisib is an oral medication taken on a once or twice daily basis on all dosing days. Doses being explored in this study are 15 mg BID (starting dose), 25 mg BID, and 15 mg QD. In the dose escalation stage, patients will receive duvelisib from Day -2 through Day 28. CAR T-cells will be given per standard of care.
Group II: Cohort B Dose Expansion Stage: DuvelisibExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in Cohort B will receive duvelisib from Day -2 to Day 28 at the maximum tolerated dose (determined in dose expansion stage), followed by two weeks off therapy. This will be followed by 5 additional cycles of duvelisib for days 1-14 of 28 day cycles at the maximum tolerated dose. CAR T-cells will be given per standard of care.
Group III: Cohort A Dose Expansion Stage: DuvelisibExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in Cohort A will receive duvelisib from Day -2 to Day 28. The dose that will be given will be determined in the dose escalation stage (the maximum tolerated dose). CAR T-cells will be given per standard of care.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has Duvelisib been authorized by the FDA?

"Our team at Power assigns a 1 to Duvelisib based on Phase 1 data, which suggests that there is limited evidence around its safety and efficacy."

Answered by AI

Is this an innovative clinical trial?

"Since 2014, Secura Bio Inc. has sponsored 16 ongoing studies of duvelisib across 8 countries and 68 cities. The first trial was Phase 1 & 2 approved, and involved 32 participants; 13 further trials have been conducted since then."

Answered by AI

What is the current participant count for this experiment?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov displays the data which indicates that this medical experiment is currently accepting participants, with an original post date of February 28th 2022 and most recent update on June 30th 2022. The trial aims to recruit 43 people from a single location."

Answered by AI

Are there any other investigations looking into the efficacy of Duvelisib?

"Currently, 16 different trials for Duvelisib are in process. None of these active studies have reached Phase 3 yet. The majority of these clinical tests are based out of Boston, Massachusetts; however, there is an expansive network with a total 147 trial sites across the nation."

Answered by AI

Have applications for this research trial been accepted yet?

"Indeed, the documents available on clinicaltrials.gov indicate that this experiment is actively recruiting. It was initially posted in February 2022 and updated last June; 43 people are needed for recruitment at 1 location."

Answered by AI

What illnesses is Duvelisib typically administered to address?

"Duvelisib can be of assistance to patients with refractory small lymphocytic lymphoma, those that have relapsed after their original treatment plan, and those who require a therapeutic procedure following two prior therapies."
