Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Clinical Trial
Atezolizumab, Obinutuzumab, and Venetoclax in Treating Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma, or Relapsed or Refractory Richter Syndrome
Summary
This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax work in treating patients with leukemia-cll/" >chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma or Richter syndrome that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab and obinutuzumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as venetoclax, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving atezolizumab, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax may work better in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or Richter syndrome.
Full Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with obinutuzumab and venetoclax in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)/Richter transformation (RT).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety of atezolizumab combined with obinutuzumab and venetoclax in patients with CLL/SLL/RT.
II. To determine overall response rate (ORR), complete response rate (CR), duration of response (DOR), and minimal residual disease (MRD) negative remission rate.
III. To determine the progression-free survival (PFS). IV. To determine the overall survival (OS).
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine immunological and molecular features, at baseline and/or that change with treatment, that correlate with outcomes in patients treated with atezolizumab combined with obinutuzumab and venetoclax.
OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts.
COHORT I: Patients receive obinutuzumab intravenously (IV) over 4-6 hours on days 1, 2, 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of cycles 2-9 and atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on days 3-4 of cycle 1 and on days 1-2 of cycles 2-9. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 9 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning cycle 3, patients also receive venetoclax orally (PO) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 14 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
COHORT II: Patients receive obinutuzumab intravenously IV over 4-6 hours on days 1, 2, 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and on day 1 of cycles 2-9 and atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on days 3-4 of cycle 1 and on days 1-2 of cycles 2-9. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 9 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning cycle 2, patients receive venetoclax PO on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 25 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1 year.

Females of childbearing potential [A woman is considered to be of childbearing potential if she is postmenarcheal, has not reached a postmenopausal state (>/=12 continuous months of amenorrhea with no identified cause other than menopause), and has not undergone surgical sterilization (removal of ovaries and/or uterus)] must have a negative serum or urine beta human chorionic gonadotrophin (b-hCG) pregnancy test result within 14 days prior to the first dose of treatment and must agree to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods with a failure rate of <1% per year during the treatment period and for 6 months following the last dose of the study drugs. Examples of contraceptive methods with a failure rate of <1% per year include bilateral tubal ligation, male sterilization, hormonal contraceptives that inhibit ovulation, hormone-releasing intrauterine devices, and copper intrauterine devices.
#5 Continued - Males who have partners of childbearing potential must agree to use an effective contraceptive method such as a barrier method during the study and for 6 months following the last dose of study drugs. Males should also refrain from donating sperm.
