Study Summary
This clinical trial is for men and women with previously treated B-cell malignancies.
In recent years, clinical trials with small molecule inhibitors of Btk and PI3K-delta have produced high response rates with few drug-related toxicities in subjects with B-cell malignancies. Specifically, ibrutinib and idelalisib have shown very encouraging results and each have gained FDA approval in specific patient populations, however, some subjects develop progressive disease or resistance after a period of time on these treatments. This study aims to assess the clinical potential and safety of a dual inhibition approach by combining ACP-196, a second generation Btk inhibitor, with ACP-319, a second generation PI3K inhibitor. The study will provide more information about whether this targeted combination therapy can benefit subjects with B-cell malignancies over single agent therapies or traditional chemotherapy combinations without an increase in toxicity.
Subjects will receive ACP-196 and ACP-319 continuously throughout the study as long as they are responding to therapy and not experiencing unacceptable side effects. Both ACP-196 and ACP-319 are administered orally twice daily. After discontinuing treatment, subjects will remain in long-term follow-up until they receive their next therapy.
