Background summary
To determine if panobinostat can aid to the reduction of relapse in classical
Hodgkin Lymphoma patients
Study objective
Primary
* To compare the disease free survival (DFS) in patients with HL after
achieving a complete response following AHSCT with HDT who are treated with
panobinostat versus those who receive placebo based on investigator*s review of
radiological images
Secondary
* To compare OS for the two arms
* To estimate and compare the RoR at 6, 12, and 24 months from randomization
for the two arms
* To assess the safety and tolerability
* To characterize the safety and tolerability of panobinostat
* To explore the relationship of PK-PD (safety and efficacy) in patients with
HL following AHSCT
Study design
Treatment phase/duration of treatment:
Starting cycle 1 day 1, all patients will be treated with study treatment
(panobinostat 45 mg or placebo three times a week, every other week). The
treatment duration is 52 weeks; one cycle consists of four consecutive weeks
(28 days).
Patients will continue receiving study treatment until completion of study
treatment (52 weeks) or until disease relapse, occurrence of intolerable
toxicity, or withdrawal of consent; whichever occurs first.
Follow-up phase:
All patients enrolled to the study will be followed through the treatment
period or until relapse and thereafter for progression and survival. Study
results will be reported once adequate number of events (for DFS) have
occurred.
Post-baseline radiological tumor assessments:
Radiological tumor assessments by CT/MRI for a patient will be performed for
evaluation of relapse every 12 weeks from randomization for the first 24 months
and every 16 weeks for the next 12 months. Thereafter, frequency of CT/MRI
scans will occur as per SOC. Patients will be followed for OS. This OS
analysis will be presented at the end of the study and survival information
will be updated five years after the last patient is enrolled in the study. Any
clinical suspicion of disease recurrence at any time should be confirmed using
a CT/MRI scan promptly rather than waiting for the next scheduled radiological
assessment. The primary analysis of DFS will be based on a local radiological
review of CT/MRI scan regardless of PET scan results.
Intervention
Not applicable
Study burden and risks
The patients physical situation is assessed by examinations and blood draws
during (follow-up) visits and the progression/relapse of the disease is
measured by CTor MRI scan lesions.

Inclusion criteria
Inclusion
1. Patient age is *18 years
2. Patient has a history of histologically confirmed classical HL (i.e. Nodular sclerosing (NSHL), Mixed-cellularity (MCHL), Lymphocyte-rich (LRHL), Lymphocyte depleted (LDHL))
3. Patient has achieved a complete response by CT/MRI scan between 6 and 12 weeks from the day of their first autologous stem/bone marrow transfusion (AHSCT) following HDT. Where complete response is defined as:
Normalization of all nodes and lesions compared to pre-transplant scan performed prior to salvage therapy for relapse. Any residual abnormal masses on the post transplant CT/MRI must be metabolically inactive on a PET scan.
4. Patients must also have one of the following factors that places them at risk for relapse:
* Primary refractory disease (including relapse in * 3 months of completion of treatment)
* Multiple relapses (prior to transplant)
* First relapse >3 but <12 months from last dose of first-line treatment
* Stage III/IV disease (at relapse, prior to transplant)
* Hemoglobin <10.5 gm/dL (at relapse, prior to transplant)
5. Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of * 2
6. Patient has the following laboratory values within 3 weeks of starting study drug (labs may be repeated, if needed, to obtain acceptable values before failure at screening is concluded)
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) * 1.5 x 109 /L
* Platelet count * 100 x 109 /L
* AST/SGOT and ALT/SGPT * 2.5 x ULN
* Serum total bilirubin * 1.5 ULN
* Serum creatinine * 1.5 x ULN
* Serum potassium, magnesium, sodium, total calcium (corrected for serum albumin) or ionized calcium within normal limits
Note: Potassium, magnesium, and/or sodium supplements (but not platelet or RBC transfusions) may be given to correct values that are < lower limit of normal (LLN). Post-correction values must not be deemed to be a clinically significant abnormality prior to patients being dosed.
7. Patient has the ability to swallow capsules
8. Sexually active patient (men and women of child bearing potential {WOCBP}) agrees to use double barrier method of contraception during the course of the study treatment period (52 weeks) and for 3 months after completing study treatment. WOCBP are defined as sexually mature women who have not undergone a hysterectomy or who have not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months.
9. Patient has signed informed consent prior to any screening procedures
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion
1. Patient has been treated with allogeneic transplant
2. Patient has received any anti-lymphoma therapy after AHSCT including but not limited to:
* chemotherapy prior to start of study
* biologic immunotherapy including monoclonal antibodies or experimental therapy prior to start of study
* radiation therapy
3. Patient has not recovered from reversible toxicity due to any prior therapies (e.g. returned to baseline or Grade *1) except for hematological laboratory parameters
Note: Patient does not meet this criteria if the toxicity is stable and irreversible, and there is no evidence that panobinostat causes a similar toxicity
4. Patient who received prior treatment with DAC inhibitors including panobinostat
5. Patient who received an investigational agent of any kind within 28 days of randomization

* Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < the lower limit of institutional norm, as determined by echocardiogram (ECHO) or multiple uptake gated acquisition scan (MUGA)
