Blinatumomab plus donor lymphocyte infusion to prevent relapse after transplant in high-risk Ph-negative B‑cell ALL

Official title: Effectiveness and Safety of Blinatumomab and Donor Lymphocyte Infusion in Maintenance Therapy After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for High-risk Ph Negative B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia:Phrase II, Exploratory Study

Run by First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University · NCT07105579 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests whether giving blinatumomab together with donor lymphocyte infusions can help prevent relapse in people aged 14–65 with high‑risk Philadelphia chromosome–negative B‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia after an allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are patients aged 14–65 with Ph‑negative B‑cell ALL who have high‑risk features, are at least two months post–allo‑HSCT with marrow remission and MRD‑negative status, good performance status, adequate organ function, and no active grade III/IV GVHD.

Probably not a fit

Patients with active severe GVHD, significant organ dysfunction, Ph‑positive disease, MRD‑positive marrow before enrollment, or who cannot travel to the study center are unlikely to be eligible or benefit from this protocol.

What this trial studies

This is a single‑arm Phase 2 maintenance trial that gives post‑transplant blinatumomab combined with planned donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) to patients with high‑risk Ph‑negative B‑cell ALL. Eligible participants are at least two months post–allo‑HSCT, in marrow remission and MRD‑negative before starting treatment, with adequate organ function and no active severe graft‑versus‑host disease. The trial will monitor safety (including cytopenias and GVHD) and relapse rates to determine whether the regimen reduces post‑transplant recurrence. Treatment tolerability will also be tracked to characterize adverse events and feasibility of this combined maintenance approach.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lower post‑transplant relapse rates and improve disease‑free survival for high‑risk Ph‑negative B‑ALL patients.

How similar studies have gone: Previous work shows blinatumomab can induce remissions in relapsed/refractory Ph‑negative B‑ALL and prophylactic DLI can reduce post‑transplant relapse, but combining blinatumomab with scheduled DLI as post‑transplant maintenance remains relatively novel and not widely proven.
