NCT ID NCT04501939

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding cirmtuzumab to venetoclax can clear remaining leukemia cells in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who still have detectable disease after standard treatment. Only 5 participants are enrolled, and the main goal is to see if the combination can make the cancer undetectable. The study is active but no longer recruiting.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Cirmtuzumab (Zilovertamab) and Venetoclax (VENCLEXTA)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could help clear remaining leukemia cells in patients who still have detectable disease after standard treatment, potentially delaying the need for further therapy.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-phase trial with only 5 participants, so results may not apply to a broader population. Side effects from the drug combination are possible, and the treatment may not work for everyone.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Must have detectable CLL/SLL (\> 0.01% leukemia cells present) * Must have received at least 12 months of venetoclax. * Patients may be receiving venetoclax at the time of screening and study entry. * Patients who have discontinued venetoclax more than 6 months prior to study entry must still have a disease burden meeting criteria for low risk of TLS (i.e. no lymph node greater than 5 cm in diameter; absolute lymphocyte count less than 25 k/uL) Exclusion Criteria: Evidence of other clinically significant uncontrolled condition(s) including, but not limited to: * Uncontrolled and/or active systemic infection (viral, bacterial or fungal) * Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV) requiring treatment. Note: subjects with serologic evidence of prior vaccination to HBV (i.e. hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen negative, anti-HBs antibody positive and anti-hepatitis B core (HBc) antibody negative) or positive anti-HBc antibody from intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) may participate. * Child class B or C cirrhosis Treatment with any of the following within 7 days prior to the first dose of cirmtuzumab: * Steroid therapy for anti-neoplastic intent * Biologic agent (monoclonal antibody) within 30 days for anti-neoplastic intent. * Chemotherapy (purine analog or alkylating agent) or target small molecule agent within 14 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter), or has not recovered to less than CTCAE grade 2 clinically significant adverse effect(s)/toxicity(s) of previous therapy. * CLL therapy, aside from venetoclax. * History of other malignancy that could affect compliance with the protocol or interpretation of results (example: patients with a history of curatively treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix are generally eligible.) * Women who are pregnant or lactating
