Yttrium-90 Labeled Anti-CD25 Monoclonal Antibody Combined With BEAM Chemotherapy Conditioning for the Treatment of Primary Refractory or Relapsed Hodgkin Lymphoma

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Evaluate the anti-lymphoma activity of the aTac-carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine (cytosine arabinoside), and melphalan (BEAM) regimen as conditioning for autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT); assessed by 2-year progression-free survival (PFS).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Estimate the overall survival (OS) probability and cumulative incidence of relapse/progression, and non-relapse mortality (NRM) at 100-days, 1-year and 2-years.

II. Summarize toxicities by type, frequency, severity, attribution, time course and duration.

III. Evaluate short and long-term complications, including: delayed engraftment (neutrophil and platelet), infection, and myelodysplasia (MDS).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate potential changes in Hodgkin lymphoma biological markers of patients treated with 90Y basiliximab BEAM via analyses of serial blood samples.

II. Assess the potential association between pre-AHCT CD25 expression levels and post-AHCT outcomes.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 'cold' basiliximab intravenously (IV) followed by yttrium Y 90 basiliximab IV on day -14. Patients also receive carmustine IV on over 4 hours day -6, etoposide IV over 1 hours once daily (QD) and cytarabine IV over 2 hours twice daily (BID) or QD on days -5 to -2, and melphalan IV over 1 hours on day -1. Patients then receive hematopoietic progenitor cell apheresis (HPC-A) product via infusion on day 0. Beginning day 5, patients receive granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) (or biosimilar) subcutaneously (SC) or IV until absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 500 for 3 consecutive days or according to the treating physician's best clinical judgement.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, up to 2 years for response, and up to 5 years for survival.

Inclusion criteria

Informed Consent and Willingness to Participate 1. Documented informed consent of the participant and/or legally authorized representative.

• Primary refractory disease'
• Relapse < 1 year after completion of frontline therapy
• Not in CR at the time of transplant
• Relapse after receiving PD1 blockade or brentuximab vedotin as initial therapy
• Patients will be enrolled after collection of at least 2.0 x 106 CD34 cells/kg of autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC-A) by apheresis.
• Recovery from non-hematologic toxicities of salvage cytoreductive chemotherapy to ≤ grade 2 (CTCAE v5).

Clinical Laboratory and Organ Function Criteria (To be performed prior to Day 1 of protocol therapy)

• Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL
• Creatinine clearance of ≥ 60 mL/min per 24 hour urine test
• Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 X ULN (unless has Gilbert's disease)
• AST/SGOT ≤1.5 x ULN (except in cases where abnormal LFTs are due to involvement with HL)
• ALT/SGPT ≤ 1.5 x ULN (except in cases where abnormal LFTs are due to involvement with HL)
• Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%
• FEV1 > 65% of predicted measured, or DLCO (diffusion capacity) ≥ 50% of predicted measured (corrected for hemoglobin).

Contraception

• Agreement by females and males of childbearing potential* to use an effective method of birth control or abstain from heterosexual activity for the course of the study through at least six months after the last dose of protocol therapy.

• Childbearing potential defined as not being surgically sterilized (men and women) or have not been free from menses for > 1 year (women only).

Exclusion criteria

Prior and concomitant therapies

• Planned BV consolidation after AHCT
• Prior high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant, or prior allogeneic transplantation.
• Significant prior external beam dose-limiting radiation to a critical organ based on review of the prior radiation treatment records by the Radiation Oncology PI.
• Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents, or concurrent biological, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy.

Other illnesses or conditions

• Myelodysplasia or any active malignancy other than HL, or < 5 years remission from any other prior malignancy, except non-melanoma skin cancer, localized prostate cancer or localized cervical cancer
• Any cytogenetic abnormality in the bone marrow that is known to be associated with or predictive of myelodysplasia is excluded. This includes, but is not limited to, del(5), del(7), del(11).
• Lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin Lymphoma
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to 90Y-basiliximab-DOTA.
• Persistent marrow involvement (>10%) with HL after salvage cytoreductive therapy and before stem cell mobilization.
• BM harvest required to reach adequate cell dose for transplant.
• Active Hepatitis B or C viral infection or Hepatitis B surface antigen positive
• Positive Human Immunodeficiency Virus antibody, patients with undetectable HIV viral load with CD4 ≥ 300 and are on HAART medication are allowed
• Patients should not have any uncontrolled illness including ongoing or active infection.
• Patients with psychosocial circumstances or illnesses that preclude protocol participation (to be determined by P.I.)
• Pregnant women are excluded from this study because 90Y-basiliximab/DOTA is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother 90Y-basiliximab/DOTA, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with 90Y-basiliximab/DOTA.
• Any other condition that would, in the Investigator's judgment, contraindicate the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns with clinical study procedures.

Noncompliance

• Prospective participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, may not be able to comply with all study procedures (including compliance issues related to feasibility/logistics).

• Eligibility should be confirmed per institutional policies.
