Summary

This is a nonrandomized study of ruxolitinib in combination with a standard multi-agent
chemotherapy regimen for the treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Part 1 of the
study will optimize the dose of study drug (ruxolitinib) in combination with the chemotherapy
regimen. Part 2 will evaluate the efficacy of combination chemotherapy and ruxolitinib at the
recommended dose determined in Part 1.

Eligibility

  1. Eligible for study when participant is 1 year to 21 years at the time of diagnosis
  2. Eligible Ages in Canada; 2 years to 21 years
  3. De novo high-risk (HR) Ph-like B-ALL for which any of following criteria are present at diagnosis:
  4. Age = 10 years
  5. White blood cell (WBC) = 50 × 10^3/µL
  6. CNS3 leukemia at diagnosis
  7. Systemic steroid pretreatment without presteroid WBC documentation
  8. Diagnostic bone marrow or peripheral blood sample must have gene expression profiling and downstream genetic testing performed by submitting diagnostic specimens under the COG AALL08B1 or APEC14B1 biology studies, or AALL1131 or its successor study. Specimens must demonstrate a Ph-like expression profile (ie, LDA-positive) as tested by low density microarray testing at the COG ALL reference laboratory or TriCore laboratory at the University of New Mexico AND must contain 1 of the following genetic lesions: (determined at COG ALL reference laboratories, or equivalent CAP/CLIA-certified laboratories approved by the medical monitor:
  9. CRLF2 rearrangement with confirmed JAK1 or JAK2 mutation (JAK+)
  10. CRLF2 rearrangement without JAK mutation
  11. Other JAK pathway alterations (eg, JAK2 fusions, EPOR fusions, SH2B3 deletions, IL7RA mutations) with or without CRLF2-R, or CRLF2-R with unknown JAK status as determined by a COG ALL Reference Laboratory
  12. Completed a 4-drug Induction therapy regimen (modified aBFM regimen or equivalent) in Study AALL1131 or its successor study, or as per the institutional standard of care for HR B-ALL and have had end-Induction minimal residual disease (MRD) assessed
  13. Male and female subjects of reproductive non childbearing potential or willing to take appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy or fathering a child for the duration of study participation

**Clinical trials are research studies that involve people. These studies test new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose, or treat diseases. People who take part in cancer clinical trials have an opportunity to contribute to scientists’ knowledge about cancer and to help in the development of improved cancer treatments. They also receive state-of-the-art care from cancer experts... Click here to learn more about clinical trials.
