A Phase 2 Study of Brentuximab Vedotin Plus Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Etoposide, and Prednisone (CHEP-BV) Followed by BV Consolidation in Patients With CD30-Positive Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well brentuximab vedotin and combination
chemotherapy work in treating patients with CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma.
Monoclonal antibodies, such as brentuximab vedotin may interfere with the ability of cancer
cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin,
etoposide, and prednisone work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either
by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
Giving brentuximab vedotin and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients
with CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess the safety and tolerability of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, etoposide,
prednisone, and brentuximab vedotin (CHEP-BV), as induction therapy in patients with
CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). (Safety lead-in) II. Assess the
anti-lymphoma activity of CHEP-BV as induction treatment in patients with CD30-positive PTCL.
(Phase 2)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Describe outcomes of CD30-positive PTCL patients who go on to receive BV consolidation
therapy post CHEP-BV induction with/without autologous hematopoietic cell
transplantation/radiation.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Explore the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity (as assessed by
next-generation sequencing) and MRD kinetics after CHEP-BV and BV consolidation therapy in
CD30-positive PTCL.

II. Explore the possible association between outcome after study treatment and CD30
expression, gene expression profiles (GEP), and genetic mutations as measured in PTCL tumor
samples.

OUTLINE:

INDUCTION: Patients receive cyclophosphamide intravenously (IV) and doxorubicin IV on day 1,
etoposide IV on days 1-3, and prednisone orally (PO) on days 1-5. Patients also receive
brentuximab vedotin IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6
courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

CONSOLIDATION: Between 30-60 days post-consolidative autologous stem cell therapy or after
completing induction course 6, patients with objective response (compete response or partial
response) receive brentuximab vedotin IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21
days for up to 10 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, 6 months and 12
months.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Documented informed consent of participant and/or legally authorized representative

- Agreement to allow the use of archival tissue from diagnostic tumor biopsies will be
retrieved and submitted post-enrollment

approval.

tomography (PET)-CT scan

* Exception: unless documented bone marrow involvement by lymphoma

- Total serum bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) OR if hepatic involvement
by lymphoma: =< 3 x ULN for Gilbert's disease or documented hepatic involvement by
lymphoma

- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) =< 2 x ULN OR if hepatic involvement by lymphoma: AST
=< 5 x ULN

- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2 x ULN OR if hepatic involvement by lymphoma: ALT
=< 5 x ULN

- Creatinine clearance of >= 60 mL/min per the Cockcroft-Gault formula

- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >= 45%

- Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP): negative urine or serum pregnancy test; if
the urine test is positive or cannot be confirmed as negative, a serum pregnancy test
will be required

- Agreement by WOCBP 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 6 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:

- Brentuximab vedotin

- Prior treatment of PTCL with systemic anti-lymphoma therapies, investigational agents,
radiation; exception: may have received 1 cycle of CHOP-like therapy (e.g. CHOP,
CHOEP, EPOCH); these participants must initiate day 1 cycle 1 of CHEP-BV no less than
19 days from prior CHOP-like therapy; Patients who received 1 cycle of CHOP‐like
therapy prior to initiating induction with CHEP‐BV will receive a total of 7 cycles (1
CHOP‐like cycle prior to study therapy + 6 cycles of study therapy)

- History of another primary invasive cancer, hematologic malignancy, or myelodysplastic
syndrome that has not been in remission for at least 3 years;
