Scientific titleAn umbrella adaptive randomised multi–arm screening phase II trial for patients with 2nd/3rd generation TKI resistant chronic myeloid leukaemia
Study acronymTASTER (TArgeting STEm cell Resistance)
Study hypothesisThe trial will investigate whether a novel agent can be combined with TKI to improve treatment response, as measured by BCR-ABL1IS transcript levels in chronic and accelerated phase chronic myeloid leukaemia.
Ethics approval(s)Approved 28/05/2019, London – City & East Research Ethics Committee (Bristol Research Ethics Committee Centre, Whitefriars, Level 3, Block B, Lewins Mead, Bristol, BS1 2NT, UK; Tel: +44 (0)207 104 8171; Email: nrescommittee.london-cityandeast@nhs.net), ref: 19/LO/0529
ConditionChronic myeloid leukaemia
InterventionThe trial will commence initially with a control arm (TKI) and 2 experimental arms (TKI + EZH2i [Tazemetostat-EPZ-6438], TKI + MDM2i [Idasanutlin –RO5503781]). The number of experimental arms will change over time as further novel agents are introduced to the trial via amendment. Patients will be randomised 1:1:1 to a control arm and 2 experimental arms.

Arm A: TKI monotherapy (control arm):
Patients will continue on the same TKI they have been taking for previous 3 (accelerated phase) and 6 (chronic phase) months prior to entering the trial continuously for each cycle e.g. day 1 -28. Authorised TKIs are imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib and ponatinib.

Arm B: EPZ-6438 - Tazemetostat with TKI:
Dose level -1 – low dose oral 400 mg BD 28 days continuous
Dose level 1 – starting dose oral 600 mg BD 28 days continuous
Dose level 2 – escalation dose oral 800 mg BD 28 days continuous
Authorised TKIs are imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib and ponatinib
Patients will continue on the same TKI they have been taking for previous 3 (accelerated phase) or 6 (chronic phase) months prior to entering the trial. The TKI will be taken in combination with Tazemetostat. Note the TKI is taken continuously throughout each cycle e.g. days 1-28

Arm C: RO5503781 - Idasanutlin with TKI:
Dose level -1 – low dose oral idasanutlin (Spray Dried Powder [SDP] DP formulation) 100 mg OD for days 1-5 of 28 day cycle
Dose level 1 – starting dose oral idasanutlin (Spray Dried Powder [SDP] DP formulation) SDP 150 mg OD for days 1-5 of 28 day cycle
Dose level 2 – escalation dose oral idasanutlin (Spray Dried Powder [SDP] DP formulation) SDP 200 mg OD for days 1-5 of 28 day cycle
Authorised TKIs are imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib and ponatinib
Patients will continue on the same TKI they have been taking for previous 3 (accelerated phase) or 6 (chronic phase) months prior to entering the trial. The TKI will be taken in combination with Idasanutlin. Note the TKI is taken continuously throughout each cycle e.g. days 1-28

Primary outcome measureThe proportion of treatment ‘responders’ defined as patients who achieve a > 0.5 log reduction in BCR-ABL1 mRNA levels at any time during 32 weeks of treatment (by 33 weeks from baseline)
Secondary outcome measures1. Toxicities assessed according to NCI CTCAE V5.0
2. Durability of improvement in BCR-ABL1 mRNA level in responding chronic and accelerated phase CML patients, measured by levels of BCR ABL1 every 3 months from baseline until end of study
3. Rate of haematological improvement measured by standard FBC and manual differential WBC assessed monthly from baseline to 32 weeks
4. Rate of CyR improvement by 32 weeks, measured by standard cytogenetics - metaphase cytogenetics on >20 metaphases obtained from WBC in bone marrow
5. Rate of molecular improvement by 32 weeks (BCR-ABL<10%, < 1%, < 0.1%, and , 0.01%), measured by levels of BCR ABL1 assessed every 3 months from baseline until end of study
6. Drug-drug interactions by measuring levels of TKI and novel agents (i.e. PK) at specified timepoints during cycles 1 and 2 on experimental arms of the study
7. Overall patient survival, event-free survival and relapse-free survival will be determined by the time from baseline (randomisation) to each of death, event and relapse. The comparisons between each experimental arm and the control arm will be made using a Cox regression model. Event Free Survival (EFS) will be defined as follows: (Date of event - start date of study medication). For the purposes of the study an ‘event’ will be defined as the first occurrence of one of the following:
7.1. Death from any cause
7.2. Disease progression (as defined below)
7.3. Loss of CHR defined as the appearance of any of the following, confirmed by a second determination ≥ 1 month later: WBC count that rises to > 20.0 x 109/L, platelet count that rises to ≥ 600 x 109/L, appearance of blasts in the peripheral blood
7.4. Increasing WBC count: for patients not achieving a CHR, haematological progression will be defined as a doubling of WBC count at least one month apart with at least the second value >20.0 x 109/L
7.5. Loss of major cytogenetic response (MCR): for patients that were in MCR at study entry; loss of MCR will be defined as an increase in the Ph+ bone marrow cells by at least 30 percentage points (e.g., from 20% to 50%, or from 30% to 60%) confirmed by a second cytogenetic analysis ≥1 month later
8. Time to haematological, cytogenetic and molecular response will be determined by the time from baseline (randomisation) to each of haematological, cytogenetic and molecular response.
9. Time to molecular, cytogenetic or haematological relapse and to progression to accelerated or blast phase and to progression to accelerated or blast phase will be determined by the time from baseline (randomisation) to each of molecular, cytogenetic or haematological relapse, and progression.
10. Quality of life measured using MDASI-CML and EQ5D at baseline, C9 D1, C16 D1 and C20 D1

IPD sharing plan summaryAvailable on request
Publication and dissemination planThe results of this study will reported and disseminated via:
1. Peer reviewed scientific journals
2. Conference presentation
3. EudraCT
4. ISRCTN website
5. Cancer Research UK cancer help website

Patients will not be individually informed, however results published in peer review journals will be made available, and a summary will be published on the CancerHelp website (http://cancerhelp.cancerresearchuk.org/). Patients will receive a Patient Results Letter when they have been registered on to the trial which acknowledges that the patient or the family of the patient may be interested in knowing the results when they are available. It explains when the trial is expected to be completed and when the summary of results are likely to be published. Updates of the trial, including final results will also be presented at the UK CML Patient Conference which is held annually.
IPD sharing planThe CTU is committed to furthering cancer research by sharing de-identified individual-patient data (IPD) from its studies with others in the field who wish to use the data for high quality science. They are happy to consider proposals from researchers and will share IPD to the maximum extent, subject to individual study constraints relating to:-
1. Ethical approval and informed consent
2. Contractual and legal obligations
3. Publication timelines (data will not normally be shared prior to the publication of the primary results)
In addition, all proposals will be reviewed for their scientific merit by the CTU and the study Chief Investigator. Only data relevant to the objectives of a particular proposal will be provided. An independent review process will be undertaken in cases of disagreement between the applicant and the CTU/Chief Investigator.
