Summary

This trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of obinutuzumab, both by itself and in combination with other cancer drugs, in young patients whose B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma has returned. Obinutuzumab helps the immune system find and destroy cancer cells, while the other drugs directly kill the cancer cells. Obinutuzumab has shown promising results in various studies.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children, adolescents, and young adults with certain types of B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma that have relapsed or didn't respond to initial treatment. Participants need good organ function and a performance status score (Karnofsky/Lansky) above 60%. They shouldn't have had recent chemotherapy, radiation therapy in specific time frames, prior obinutuzumab treatment, or uncontrolled hepatitis.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and response rate of obinutuzumab alone and combined with ICE chemotherapy (ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide) in treating relapsed CD20 positive B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. It aims to find out how well this combination works for these patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to monoclonal antibodies like obinutuzumab; effects from chemo such as nausea, hair loss, low blood cell counts leading to infection risk; fatigue; organ damage due to drug toxicity; and potential complications from weakened immune systems.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Central Nervous System (CNS) NegativeExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
All patients will receive 4 doses of obinutuzumab on days -14, -10, -6 and -2. Patients without CNS involvement will receive one dose of Liposomal cytarabine for CNS prophylaxis on day -13. Dexamethasone will be given for 5 days with each Liposomal cytarabine dose starting one day prior to the Liposomal cytarabine. Dexamethasone 0.15 mg/kg/dose (max 4mg) IV BID will be given days -14 to -10. Following completion of the Prephase (or at the first sign of progressive disease), all patients will proceed to cycle 1 of O-ICE. O-ICE chemotherapy is given in 21-day (3-week) cycles. Three weekly doses of obinutuzumab will be given days -2 (during the prephase), +6 and +13. Patients will receive ICE chemotherapy (ifosfamide-carboplatin-etoposide) administered on Days 0-2 of Cycle 1.
Group II: CNS PositiveExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
All patients will receive 4 doses of obinutuzumab on days -14, -10, -6 and -2. Patients with positive CSF prior to enrollment will receive treatment with two doses of Liposomal cytarabine during the prephase portion of therapy. Liposomal cytarabine will be given intrathecally on days -13 and -5. Dexamethasone will be given for 5 days with each Liposomal cytarabine dose starting the day prior to the Liposomal cytarabine. Dexamethasone will be given days -14 to -10 and days -6 through -2. Following completion of the Prephase (or at the first sign of progressive disease), all patients will proceed to cycle 1 of O-ICE. O-ICE chemotherapy is given in 21-day (3-week) cycles. Three weekly doses of obinutuzumab will be given days -2 (during the prephase), +6 and +13. Patients will receive ICE chemotherapy (ifosfamide-carboplatin-etoposide) administered on Days 0-2 of Cycle 1.

Mechanism Of Action

Other Research
The most common treatments for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) include monoclonal antibodies, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies. Monoclonal antibodies like obinutuzumab, rituximab, and ofatumumab target the CD20 protein on the surface of B-cells, leading to their destruction through mechanisms such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). Chemotherapy agents, such as bendamustine, work by damaging the DNA of rapidly dividing cells, causing cell death. Targeted therapies, like Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors (ibrutinib, acalabrutinib), interfere with specific signaling pathways crucial for cancer cell survival and proliferation. These treatments are vital for NHL patients as they offer multiple mechanisms to attack cancer cells, potentially leading to better outcomes and prolonged survival.
