Background:
- Celiac disease is a complex inflammatory disorder with an autoimmune component characterized by a dramatic expansion of intraepithelial cytotoxic T lymphocytes that usually regress on a gluten-free diet.
- It is estimated that approximately 10% of patients become refractory on a gluten-free diet.
- A subgroup of refractory celiac disease is characterized by expansion of a highly oligoclonal intraepithelial T-lymphocyte population that exhibits a high risk of developing enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL).
- There is presently no effective therapy for refractory celiac disease.
- A number of studies indicate that intestinal epithelial derived IL-15 plays a critical role in the disrupted intraepithelial lymphocyte homeostasis and lymphomagenesis that characterizes refractory celiac disease.
- A pivotal role for IL-15 in refractory celiac disease and EATL is further supported by the finding that in two murine models of celiac disease the pathognomonic features were reversed completely by administration of an antibody to CD122 (IL-2/IL-15R beta) that blocks IL-15 transpresentation and action.
- A Phase I clinical trial in patients with T-cell LGL and hematocytopenia using the monoclonal antibody, Hu-Mik-Beta-1 that blocks IL-15 action produced under cGMP conditions by the BDP NCI has been completed in the Metabolism Branch, NCI at the Clinical Center NIH.
Objectives:
Primary Objectives:
- Phase I trial to define the safety of Hu-Mik-Beta-1 infusions to 2 groups of patients each with refractory celiac disease at escalating 0.5 (7 patients) and 1.0 (2 patients) mg/kg doses.
- To define the clinical efficacy of Hu-Mik-Beta-1 infusions in 9 patients with refractory celiac disease and to correlate these findings with celiac disease specific tests.
Secondary Objectives:
- Definition of the receptor saturation capacity on CD122 (IL-2/IL-15R beta) of intravenously administered Hu-Mik-Beta-1 administered at 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg body weight to 2 groups of patients on three occasions separated by 3 weeks in patients with refractory celiac disease.
- Determine the immunogenicity of intravenously administered Hu-Mik-Beta-1.
- Determine the effects of Hu-Mik-Beta-1 on the phenotype and the state of activation of the elements of the cellular immune system in the circulation and in intestinal biopsies with special focus on the cells implicated in the pathogenesis of celiac disease.
Eligibility:
- Patients with refractory celiac disease (RCD) defined by the following internationally accepted criteria: persistent or recurrent symptoms (diarrhea, weight loss, and abdominal pain) associated with intestinal damage characterized by partial to total villous atrophy with intraepithelial lymphocytes (defined by >25 intraepithelial lymphocytes per 100 epithelial cells) despite strict adherence to a gluten-free diet for 6-12 months.
- Lack of antibodies to Hu-Mik-Beta-1.
- Patients are not to have circulating antibodies to tissue transglutaminase that are greater than 10 assay units using recombinant human transglutaminase antibodies.
Design:
- Patients will be enrolled and treated at the Mayo Clinic with the University of Chicago and the Clinical Center at the NIH involved as laboratory sites. This is a nonrandomized openlabel phase I trial.
- In this phase I trial initial patients are enrolled to receive 0.5 mg/kg of Hu-Mik-Beta-1 (3 patients). Patients receive Hu-Mik-Beta-1 every 3 weeks for a total of 3 doses (given on day 1, week 3 and week 6). At specific points in time the patients are monitored (see below). If 1 or more of the 3 patients receiving 0.5 mg/kg of Hu-Mik-Beta-1 experience a NCI CTCAE version 4.0 grade 3 or greater toxicity with the exception of fatigue of >4days duration possibly, probably or definitely related to the infusion of Hu-Mik-Beta-1, subject enrollment and dosing is stopped.
- At the completion of Week 9, the safety data are reviewed by the Principal Investigator and DSMB. If the safety data in the 0.5 mg/kg cohort are acceptable, the Sponsor may then enroll additional patients in doses greater than 0.5 mg/kg, evaluated in a similar manner as the 0.5 mg/kg (e.g., 3 more patients to receive 1 mg/kg Hu-Mik-Beta-1 every 3 weeks for a total of 3 doses.
- Modification: Three subjects completed study dosing with 0.5mg/kg without serious adverse events. Two subjects were then randomized to 1.0mg/kg dose and both experienced serious adverse events with a possible connection to the agent. Subject 5 experienced an event during the study, acute diverticulitis associated with free intraperitoneal air treated with antibiotics with resolution. Subject 4 who also received 1.0 mg / kg experienced a colon perforation many months after completing dosing associated with severe constipation. These events were reviewed by the DSMP. It was determined that even though direct cause and effect cannot be established because these occurred in subjects treated with the 1.0mg/kg that dose escalation be abandoned and the study completed with the lowest dose used 0.5mg/Kg. This modification proposed that any further subjects be recruited only at the 0.5mg/kg dose in the remaining 4 subjects.
Monitoring:
- At specific points in time the following cardiac tests/studies are obtained, the results reviewed prior to subsequent doses (at week 3 and week 6):
i. EKG at screening (Week -4 to 0), Day 1, Week 3, Week 6 and Week 7.
ii. CK-MB and troponin I at screening (Week -4 to 0), Day 1, Day 7, Week 3, Week 6, and Week 7.
In addition, an echocardiogram at screening (Week -4 to 0) and Week 7.
- FACS of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and peroral intestinal biopsies for expression of NKG2D, CD94, NKG2C, NKG2A, NKb44, NKb30, CD158 and granzyme.
- Immune profiling on intestinal biopsies performed on the first infusion and one week + or -3 days following the third infusion to analyze for CD8 T-cells, TCR gamma rearrangements by multiplex PCR and fluorescence analysis of CD8 and CD3 expression, high-resolution PCR expression for immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and for IEL, ERK and JNK phosphorylation reflecting abnormal IEL activation.
- Furthermore, IL-15, IL-15R alpha and interferon alpha expression will be assayed in the cells of the intestinal biopsy and in the serum.
- FACS of PBMCs with Hu-Mik-Beta-1 and Hu-Mik-Beta-3 to define saturation of CD122 (IL2/IL-15R beta).
Endpoints:
- Complete clinical response and by clinical biochemical results at the 20-week time point.
- Secondary partial response, duration of response, toxicities, immunogenicity of Hu-Mik-Beta- 1.
