A Randomized Trial of Levocarnitine Prophylaxis to Prevent Asparaginase-Associated Hepatotoxicity in Adolescents and Young Adults Receiving Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Therapy

Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Phase 3
SUMMARY

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy versus (vs.) standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. Asparaginase is part of the standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL), and mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). However, in adolescent and young adults (AYA) ages 15-39 years, liver toxicity from asparaginase is common and often prevents delivery of planned chemotherapy, thereby potentially compromising outcomes. Some groups of people may also be at higher risk for liver damage due to the presence of fat in the liver even before starting chemotherapy. Patients who are of Japanese descent, Native Hawaiian, Hispanic or Latinx may be at greater risk for liver damage from chemotherapy for this reason. Carnitine is a naturally occurring nutrient that is part of a typical diet and is also made by the body. Carnitine is necessary for metabolism and its deficiency or absence is associated with liver and other organ damage. Levocarnitine is a drug used to provide extra carnitine. Laboratory and real-world usage of the dietary supplement levocarnitine suggests its potential to prevent or reduce liver toxicity from asparaginase. The overall goal of this study is to determine whether adding levocarnitine to standard of care chemotherapy will reduce the chance of developing severe liver damage from asparaginase chemotherapy in ALL, LL and/or MPAL patients.

Start Date: 2023-08-24
Estimated Completion Date: 2028-12-30
Participants
Target number of participants: 440
Treatments
Experimental: Arm A (levocarnitine, standard of care chemotherapy)
Patients receive levocarnitine PO or IV as a bolus over 2 to 3 minutes or by infusion (over 10 to 30 minutes or per institutional standard) starting prior to standard of care induction chemotherapy with pegaspargase or calaspargase pegol and continued through the earlier of the last day of Induction phase (i.e., day prior to start of next phase) or Induction day 35. Patients may also undergo blood sample collection during screening and on study.
Active_comparator: Arm B (standard of care chemotherapy)
Patients receive standard of care induction chemotherapy with pegaspargase or calaspargase pegol on study. Patients may also undergo blood sample collection during screening and on study.
Experimental: Arm C (rescue levocarnitine)
Patients in Arms A and B who develop conjugated hyperbilirubinemia \> 3 mg/dL during induction may receive levocarnitine rescue PO or IV as a bolus dose over 2 to 3 minutes or by infusion (over 10 to 30 minutes or per institutional standard) until resolution of conjugated hyperbilirubinemia =\< 3 mg/dL (or start of consolidation or the next treatment phase, whichever occurs first).
