HEM-iSMART is a master protocol which investigates multiple investigational medicinal products in children, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) ALL and LBL. Sub-protocol A is a phase I/II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of Decitabine / Venetoclax and Navitoclax in children and AYA with R/R pediatric ALL/LBL
HEM-iSMART is a master protocol with sub-protocols. The overarching objective is that introducing targeted therapy using a biomarker driven approach for treatment stratification may improve the outcome of children with R/R acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) It is characterized by a shared framework that allows for the investigation of multiple IMPs and generate pivotal safety and efficacy evidence within the sub-protocols to establish and define the benefits and risks of new treatments for children with R/R leukemia. Sub-protocol A within HEM-iSMART, is a phase I/II, multicenter, international, open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of decitabine, venetoclax and navitoclax in children, adolescents and young with R/R ALL and LBL. The epigenetic approach may improve outcome for patients whose tumor lack molecular alterations.

Phase I: Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D)
Defined as the highest dose level tested at which 0/6 or 1/6 patients experiences dose limiting toxicities (DLT) during course 1 with at least 2 patients experiencing DLT at the next higher dose.
Time frame: 3 years
Phase II: Best overall response rate (ORR)
For patients with leukemia: CR and MRD response after 1 cycle of treatment. This includes determination of CR, CRp, CRi and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate in patients suffering from overt morphological relapse of T-ALL at time of enrolment (morphological disease (M2/M3)), and the MRD negativity rate in those that entered with high-MRD levels but in morphological CR. These results will together be presented as a composite endpoint Overall Response rate (ORR). MRD negativity will be defined as ≤1x10-4 as generated by multi-parameter flow cytometry. For patients with lymphoma: Response in LBL patients is defined as CR, PR, minor response (MR) as defined in International pediatric NHL response criteria. In case of bone-marrow involvement MRD will be taken into account.
Time frame: 6 years
Overall survival (OS)
Defined as time from C1D1 until death of any cause.
Time frame: 7 years
Event-free survival (EFS)
Defined as time from C1D1 to the first event (subsequent relapse after CR (including molecular reappearance), death of any cause, failure to achieve remission (CR, CRp or CRi), or secondary malignancy).
Time frame: 7 years
Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR)
Estimate of the risk, that a patient will develop a relapse over a specified period of time.
Time frame: 7 years
