Brief Summary

In this phase II multicenter trial we plan to use acalabrutinib before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) with reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) in patients with refractory/relapsed MCL and CLL with poor prognostic factors. Acalabrutinib will be used before alloSCT with the intention to reduce tumor burden and after transplant to augment disease control.

Detailed Description

In this phase II multicenter trial we plan to use acalabrutinib before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) with reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) in patients with refractory/relapsed MCL and CLL with poor prognostic factors. Acalabrutinib will be used before alloSCT with the intention to reduce tumor burden and after transplant to augment disease control. Since chronic GvHD is mediated by activated B lymphocytes, we also speculate that the drug as a BTK inhibitor may reduce the severity and incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after alloSCT, as it was shown for ibrutinib.

Best response to therapy and safety issues will be the primary target of this small trial (25 transplanted pts).TEAE and SAE of acalabrutinib in patients after alloSCT that was not previously assessed.

We hypothesize that this treatment will improve the efficacy of the alloSCT - this issue will be addressed by serial minimal residual disease (MRD) evaluation in peripheral blood and bone marrow. This treatment strategy could significantly improve the outcome of poor prognosis MCL and CLL patients.

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Acalabrutinib 2x100mg oral capsule +alloSCT

Acalabrutinib administered 2x100mg p.o. daily for 3-6 months before alloSCT +acalabrutinib administered 2x100mg p.o. daily for 9 months after alloSCT

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Acalabrutinib 2x100 MG Oral Capsule + alloSCT

Intervention Type: DRUG

Acalabrutinib 100 mg caps will be administered twice daily for 3-6 months before the intended alloSCT. After restarting acalabrutinib (2x100 mg daily) after the transplant procedure it will be administered for further 9 months. In patients who do not have an acceptable donor acalabrutinib will be administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
