Brief summary:
This is a study to evaluate the safety of idelalisib as post-transplantation maintenance in patients with B cell hematologic malignancies undergoing a allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Safety will be evaluated through the assessment of cytopenias, effect on donor chimerism, effect on the incidence and severity of acute graft versus host disease, and gastro-intestinal tolerance.

Detailed description:
Currently, to improve overall survival, the focus of the BMT program at JHH the introduction of anti-neoplastic therapy post transplantation: where the allo BMT serves as a platform to allowing a new intolerant immune system to interact with the post allo BMT intervention.

The importance of post BMT therapy has been made evident with tyrosine kinase inhibition (TKI) in Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and chronic myeloid leukemia(CML), where patients who had disease progression while on TKI therapy pre-allo BMT enjoy marked improvement in overall survival when TKI is part of a maintenance program; the use of DNA hypomethylation agents after allo BMT for relapsed myeloid malignances; or the use of rituximab after allo BMT in follicular lymphoma.

Idelalisib, an orally-administered, selective inhibitor of Phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K), is extremely effective in inducing partial responses to complete responses in many B-cell derived malignancies and should be studied in the post alloHSCT setting. Johns Hopkins Hospital has one of the world's largest experiences with alloHSCT. This study proposes a double blinded randomized phase I placebo trial where all patients who have undergone alloHSCT for a B-cell derived hematologic malignancy be offered either idelalisib 100mg or placebo twice daily for 180 days starting approximately 90 days after their HSCT.

1. INTRODUCTION 
For all relapsed B cell derived hematologic malignancies, allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo BMT) 
is often the most definitive curative intent therapy.   Historically, there have been four obstacles decreasing 
overall survival (OS) associated with allo BMT:  preparative conditioning toxicity, donor availability, graft-versus-
host-disease (GVHD) and disease relapse.   Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have dramatically 
reduced alloBMT toxicity and have expanded the use of this therapy to patients up to 75 years of age.(1-3)  The 
use of alternative donors has resulted in an average of 2.7 donors for each patient in Johns Hopkins 
University.(4)  The use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide has reduced the incidence of Grade III-IV GVHD to 
6% - 11%.(5-7) However, disease relapse after successful engraftment during allo BMT remains the limiting 
factor for improving overall survival. (5, 6, 8) 
Currently, in order to improve OS, the BMT program at JHH has recently focused on the introduction of anti-
neoplastic therapy post transplantation.  We use the allo HSCT as a platform to allow a new intolerant immune 
system to interact with a post allo HSCT biologic or therapeutic intervention.  Currently, to improve overall 
survival, the focus of the BMT program at JHH the introduction of anti-neoplastic therapy post transplantation: 
where the allo BMT serves as a platform to allowing a new intolerant immune system to interact with the post 
allo BMT intervention.   The importance of post BMT therapy has been made evident with tyrosine kinase 
inhibition (TKI) in Ph+ ALL and Ph+ CML, where patients who had disease progression while on TKI therapy pre-
allo BMT enjoy marked improvement in OS when TKI is part of a maintenance program (9-12); the use of DNA 
hypomethylation agents after allo BMT for relapsed myeloid malignances (13); or the use of rituximab after allo 
BMT in follicular lymphoma (PMID 26183076).    At JHH we are currently, utilizing post allo BMT: TKI in Ph+ 
leukemia’s, sorafenib and other multi-kinase inhibitors in FLT3-ITD AML, and 5-azacytidine in MDS patients.   
Previous experience with Idelalisib, an orally-administered, selective inhibitor of Phosphoinositide 3 kinase 
(PI3K)- is extremely effective in inducing partial responses to complete responses in many B-cell derived 
malignancies.  Considering this published track record, idelalisib should be studied in the post allo BMT setting.  
While evaluating patients using a pre-transplant conditioning approach in patients with high risk CLL based on 
cytogenetics, would also be of interest, recent NCCN recommendations list idelalisib as the treatment option in 
this cohort, hence our focus on post-transplant maintenance.  Moreover, a non-disease specific but treatment 
oriented selection of patients will likely reveal a clinically significant endpoint signal more quickly.   However, 
before embarking on a large randomized trial to determine the impact Idelalisib has on the relapse-free survival 
after allo BMT for B cell derived hematologic malignances, a phase 1 toxicity/safety trial is warranted.   
Here at JHH we have one of the world’s largest experiences with alloHSCT.  We propose a double blinded 
randomized phase I placebo trial where all patients who have undergone alloHSCT for a B-cell derived 
hematologic malignancy be offered either idelalisib 100mg or placebo twice daily for 180 days starting 
approximately 90 days after their HSCT.   
While Idelalisib is a selective PI3K inhibitor, most affecting the p110
isoform, the expression of PI3K on 
regulatory NK cells requires careful clinical study. (14)    In fact, PI (3) K
blockade can affect suppressor Treg 
function which could alter the incidence of GVHD in this population. (15) In addition, literature data has shown

targets upstream of PI3K, i.e. Syk, also show evidence of B cell modulation in the transplant setting (Allen et al., 
2014)  
 
1.1. 
HYPOTHESIS 
Idelalisib can be safely used as maintenance therapy after allo HSCT in patients with B cell derived 
hematologic malignances.   
 
2. OBJECTIVES 
2.1. 
PRIMARY ENDPOINT 
To evaluate the safety of idelalisib, as post alloHSCT maintenance therapy in patients with B-cell 
hematologic malignancies, by comparing to placebo.  
2.2. 
SECONDARY ENDPOINT

2.3. 
TERTIARY ENDPOINTS 
To explore the association between potential biomarkers, clinical activity and/or toxicity of Idelalisib 
administered after allogeneic BMT. Multi-color flow cytometric analyses of immune markers pre- and post-
treatment, high-throughput DNA sequencing of rearranged TCRβ CDR3 regions from T cell genomic DNA, 
cytokine measurements, and immunohistochemistry is planned. In addition, we may perform exploratory gene 
expression analysis of immune biomarkers in the bone marrow aspirates and whole or targeted exome 
sequencing of the lymphoma cells.

5. KNOWN TOXICITIES AND DOSE ADJUSTMENTS 
5.1. 
KNOWN TOXICITIES OF IDELALISIB 
Idelalisib is FDA approved for the treatment of relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic 
lymphoma and follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.  Idelalisib may cause:  


Johns Hopkins Protocol ID: J1633 
IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 10 of 31 
 
ALT/AST elevations and hyperbilirubinemia (most frequently occurs within the first 12 weeks of 
treatment); incidence of serious hepatotoxicity: 14.0% 
 
Diarrhea (mean time to occurrence 7.2 months); incidence of serious/severe diarrhea: 14.0% 
 
Pneumonitis; incidence <5% 
 
Neutropenia: Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurs in approximately 31% of patients receiving the 150mg 
bid dose.   
 
Rash: Grade 3 or 4 rash occurred in approximately 21% of patients receiving the 150mg BID dose. 
 
CYP3A affects: CYP3A inducers can reduce the AUC of idelalisib by 75%; CYP3A inhibitors can 
increase the AUC of idelalisib by 1.8 fold; idelalisib is strong CYP3A inhibitor. A list of these drugs 
can be found in appendix 4.   Importantly, with direct relevance to this study is the lack of data 
supporting strong interaction with voriconazole.  Azoles are often the medication of choice for 
patients with suspect fungal or anti-bacterial non-responsive fevers during alloBMT.  The 
elimination of idelalisib is predominantly mediated by the hepatic pathway.  Idelalisib is primarily 
metabolized by aldehyde oxidase with a lesser involvement of cytochrome P450.  The major 
metabolite of idelalisib is GS-563117.  Data indicate that CYP3A inhibition by concurrent use of 
azoles may result in modestly higher exposures of idelalisib, but the change is not of clinical 
relevance21. In this study, as the dosing of idelalisib is already reduced to 100mg bid to provide 
additional risk mitigation.  Additionally, patient’s receiving azole therapy while on idelalisib will have 
serum levels monitored to adjust to target levels. 
Therefore, to protect patients in this study the following measures are employed: 
 
Patients will have comprehensive metabolic panels performed every 2 weeks through day +120, then 
monthly through day +270.  
 
Patients post alloBMT may develop intestinal aGVHD which may present with diarrhea or ileus.  All 
patients with >3 grade diarrhea will also be evaluated for aGVHD in addition to idelalisib dose 
modification. 
 
Patients post alloBMT may develop aGVHD which often presents with a generalized cutaneous rash. All 
patients with >3 grade rash will also be evaluated for aGVHD in addition to potential idelalisib dose 
modification.  
 
Patients post alloBMT often develop late neutropenia after achieving neutrophil recovery.  To help limit 
the depth of neutropenia that could be attributable idelalisib, idelalisib will be dosed at 100mg bid, the 
suggested dose reduction for patients experiencing an ANC <.5Gi/L while on the standard 150mg bid 
dosing schedule 
 
CYP3A interactions. Commonly, patients post alloBMT require azole based antifungal prophylaxis 
and/or treatment.  Patients receiving posaconazole or voriconazole will have these levels checked every 
14 days while receiving idelalisib.  
 
Additionally, in the post alloBMT patient population, novel toxicities need to be considered, therefore, 
stopping rules will be established to stop this study, if compared to the placebo control the incidence of 
GVHD or any other toxicity caused by idelalisib or placebo causes discontinuation at a rate differential 
of >10%.

5.2. 
DOSE ADJUSTMENT OF IDELALISIB OR PLACEBO 
Study drug consists of oral idelalisib or placebo tablets. The standard dose of idelalisib for this protocol is 
100mg idelalisib tablets (orange, oval shaped and film coated) or matched 100mg silicified microcrystalline 
cellulose placebo tablets taken twice a day.  
When necessary,  idelalisib or matched placebo dose can be adjusted to  100 mg taken once a day. Based 
on current PK data supplied by Gilead, a clinical trial examining various idelalisib doses in combination with a 
second drug held at a fixed dose found that  the steady state AUC for idelalisib 100 mg QD dosing reduced 
patient idelalisib exposure by ~30% as compared to 50 mg BID dosing. The investigators further determined that 
the second drug did not influence the idelalisib drug concentrations at the studied doses. Additionally, Gilead 
study 101-02 demonstrated AUC0–24h were similar, 19,600 and 16,300 ng.h/mL for 150mg BID and 300mg QD, 
respectively.21 Due to this data, we are confident that a dose reduction from 100mg BID to  100mg tablets taken 
once daily will sufficiently reduce patient exposure to idelalisib in the context of this study.  
PNEUMONITIS 
Non-infectious pneumonitis can occur with Idelalisib use and occurs in allogeneic bone marrow transplant 
recipients. A diagnosis of non-infectious pneumonitis should be considered in patients presenting with non-
specific respiratory signs and symptoms such as hypoxia, pleural effusion, cough or dyspnea, and in whom 
infectious, neoplastic and other non-medicinal causes have been excluded by means of appropriate 
investigations. Opportunistic infections such as PJP should be ruled out in the differential diagnosis of non-
infectious pneumonitis. Patients should be advised to report promptly any new or worsening respiratory 
symptoms.  
If idiopathic, symptomatic pneumonitis occurs, stop study drug until symptoms resolve to less than or equal 
to grade 1. The use of corticosteroids may be indicated. Study drug may be reintroduced at a dose of 100 mg 
once daily.  If idiopathic pneumonitis recurs at the reduced dosing level, then discontinue study drug 
permanently.   
HEPATOTOXICITY 
Transaminitis and hyperbilirubinemia can occur with idelalisib use and are also common in allogeneic bone 
marrow transplant recipients.  For patients experiencing an AST/ALT or bilirubin >5x ULN that is unexplained by 
other factors, hold study drug until the parameter is < 2ULN and restart at 100mg once daily.  If the parameter 
should rise again >5 ULN, discontinue study drug.  For AST/ALT >20x ULN (or Bilirubin >10x ULN), regardless of 
attribution, study drug should be permanently stopped.  
DIARRHEA 
Diarrhea can occur with idelalisib use and is also common in allogeneic bone marrow transplant recipients.  
Prior to major pharmacologic intervention, common infectious causes of loose stooling should be evaluated.  
For loose stools, in the absence of major infections, anti-motility agents may be offered and/or light steroid 
preparations.  For patients with significant stooling, >1L daily, hold study drug and consider colonic biopsy if 
there is evidence to suggest aGVHD.   Once stooling is <0.5L day, restart at 100mg oncedaily.  If stooling should

IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 12 of 31 
again increase to >1L daily, discontinue study drug.  For life-threatening diarrhea, study drug should be 
permanently stopped.  
 
NEUTROPENIA AND THROMBOCYTOPENIA 
Neutropenia and thrombocytopenia can occur with idelalisib use and are also common in allogeneic bone 
marrow transplant recipients.    For ANC < 500 or PLT < 25,000, monitor CBC with differential weekly, hold study 
drug until ANC >1,000 and PLT count >50,000 and restart at the original dose. If a subject develops ANC < 500 
or PLT < 25,000 a second time, hold study drug until ANC >1,000 and PLT count >50,000 and restart at 100mg 
once daily.  If a subject who is on 100mg once daily develops ANC < 500 or PLT < 25,000, discontinue study drug. 
Acute GVHD: Patients with symptomatic aGVHD will be treated as per institutional guidelines.  If after seven 
days of therapy there is evidence of progressive aGVHD, study drug will be stopped for at least seven days.  If it 
is determined that study drug was not causative of the aGVHD it may be restarted at the discretion of the 
primary oncologist.  If after 14 days of active therapy there is no improvement of the aGVHD, study drug will be 
stopped for at least seven days.  If it is determined that study drug was not causative of the aGVHD persistence 
it may be restarted at the discretion of the primary oncologist.    
LATE ONSET NEUTROPENIA (LON)  
Rituximab- associated LON is defined by most investigators as grade III-IV neutropenia (ANC <500 cells/µL), 
occurring after the ANC has recovered to within normal limits, but within 3-4 weeks after the last dose of 
rituximab22 . If subject develops LON after rituximab use or which per medical judgement can be attributed to 
another cause outside of the use of idelalisib, the subject may receive the appropriate medical or surgical 
intervention without being taken off study or having study drug held. If, in the judgment of the attending 
physician, the subject has had no resolution of symptoms after receiving standard intervention, study drug  will 
be held until ANC >1000. 
 
6. STUDY STATISTICS 
This is a phase I study of Idelalisib, an orally-administered, selective inhibitor of Phosphoinositide 3 kinase 
(PI3K)-δ.  It has been successfully used pre-transplant to induce partial and complete responses in many B-cell 
derived malignancies.  In this study Idelalisib will be evaluated in the post-transplant setting.  Patients receiving 
a standard of care allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant from any source: cord, marrow, or peripheral 
blood will be eligible.   Patients will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to either 100 mg Idelalisib twice daily from day 
90 (±10 days) following transplant, Arm A, or a placebo, Arm B, and monitored for toxicity until day 270.  
Study treatment plan: Idelalisib day +90 [+/- 10 days), 100mg twice daily, and at least 5 days after the 
discontinuation of filgrastim if ANC is greater than 1,000 and PLT 50>Gi/L and <grade 2 aGVHD.  Patient’s 
Idelalisib will be dose adjusted for the expected toxicities of Idelalisib including pneumonitis, hepatitis, 
neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and loose stools.

Primary endpoint and design: The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the safety of Idelalisib as post-
transplantation maintenance in patients undergoing an allogeneic BMT.  In addition to the allowed dose 
reductions, a safety monitoring plan will be implemented to ensure that other treatment-limiting events are not 
elevated.  The study will be monitored between the date of randomization and day 270 post-transplant.  For 
safety monitoring, treatment-limiting toxicities will be defined as Idelalisib interruption for >14 days, or other 
grade 3 or higher adverse events as defined by CTCAE IV not captured in the protocol for dose de-escalation.  
The trial will assume that, a priori, the probability of these events in both arms of the study will follow a Beta 
(0.10, 0.90) prior distribution.  This distribution corresponds to an assumption that 10% of patients might 
experience a treatment-limiting toxicity. 
Sample size/accrual Rate:  The accrual rate for this study is expected to be 20 patients per year.  The total 
sample size will be 45 patients, 30 on the Idelalisib arm (Arm A) and 15 on the control arm (Arm B).  The safety 
objective of this trial is based on the precision of estimating the specified treatment-limiting toxicity events.  An 
approximation to the precision will be made using binomial confidence intervals.  Thirty patients on the Idelalisib 
arm will allow us to estimate the proportion of patients experiencing post-transplant events with a precision of 
± 0.19%.   
Interim analyses and operating characteristics:  For monitoring we will compute the posterior probability 
of a treatment-limiting toxicity between day 90 and 270  in each arm of the study, given the data and prior 
distribution, Beta(0.10, 0.90), and evaluate whether to hold accrual after fixed cohorts of patients.  Monitoring 
will occur in groups of 15 patients, beginning after the first 10 enrolled on Arm A.  The maximum sample size 
will be 45 patients, 30 in Arm A and 15 in Arm B.  The stopping rule will recommend a safety review if it becomes 
clear that the posterior probability of a treatment-limiting toxicity in Arm A exceeding Arm B by 0.10 is 75% or 
greater.  Operating characteristics of the study with Arm B treatment-limiting toxicity of either 5%, Table 1, or 
10%, Table 2, and varying toxicities in Arm A are based on 1,000 simulations of the trial.

Analysis Plans: 
Toxicities will be summarized descriptively by grade and type.  Cumulative incidences of aGVHD, relapse, and 
NRM will also be computed using Fine and Gray’s method for competing risks.  Treatment of 
relapse/progression, graft failure, and death are considered competing risks for GVHD; relapse/progression is a 
competing risk for NRM; and death before relapse/progression is a competing risk for relapse/progression. In 
addition, we plan to report aGVHD incidences with only graft failure and death regarded as competing risks.

Using the Kaplan-Meier method, the probability of 1-year event-free survival will be estimated and reported 
with 95% confidence intervals.  The proportions of patients who are event-free at 1 year will also be estimated 
with a 95% exact binomial confidence interval.    
    
 
 
7. CORRELATIVE STUDIES  
7.1  RATIONALE AND OUTLINE OF CORRELATIVE STUDIES  
 
The overarching goals of our correlative studies are to: 
i) 
Characterize the effect of Idelalisib on allogeneic T and B cells, particularly on their re-distribution, in vivo 
expansion, activation, and effector differentiation after treatment 
ii) Identify potential predictive biomarker candidates to allow for better selection of patients after alloBMT 
who may benefit or whom are likely to have toxicity from Idelalisib therapy. 
iii) Characterize the mechanisms of relapse after Idelalisib such as B cell and T cell dysfunction.  
 
 
 
Hypothesis: We hypothesize that Idelalisib administration will have an effect on GVHD modulation. This 
prediction is based on the data suggesting that PI3K pathway is activated in activated/memory T cells 
responsible for autoimmunity (16). Interestingly, Ali et al., have recently shown that PI3K  inactivation 
results in the disruption of two tumor-associated immune-suppressive cell types- regulatory T cells and 
myeloid-derived suppressor cells (17). Thus, we also hypothesize that p110  inhibition with Idelalisib can 
enhance allogeneic antitumor immunity post-transplant that can be measured as increased TCR diversity 
and the emergence of unique TCR clonotypes. 
 
Flow Cytometry Studies: We will perform multi-color flow cytometry on peripheral blood (PB) and bone 
marrow (BM) specimens before and after Idelalisib treatment using three pre-determined panels of mAbs 
including but not limited to those specific for CD3, CD4, CD8, PD-1, CD45RA, CCR7, CD25, CD27, CD28, CD69, Ki-
67, T-bet, CD127, FoxP3, HLA-DR, CTLA-4, TNFRII, TIM3, LAG-3, CD160, 2B4, BTLA, KLRG-1, CD16, and CD56. This 
multi-color approach allows examination of different CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subpopulations (expressing CD45RA, 
CCR7, CD27, and CD28), phenotypic separation of human CD4+FoxP3+ T cells into three distinct subpopulations 
as well as assessment of their proliferative status (% Ki-67 positive cells). (18) The expression of CD69, HLA-DR 
and TNFRII will be measured to characterize T cells activation status and the expression of co-inhibitory 
molecules (PD-1, TIM3, LAG-3, CD160, 2B4, BTLA, KLRG-1) will be studied. Natural killer cells (NK), NK-T cells will 
be enumerated using CD16 and CD56 (NK/NK-T cells). Additionally effects of Idelalisib on myeloid-derived 
suppressor cells and B cell depletion post-transplant will be assessed. As a part of PBMCs collection and 
mononuclear cell isolation we will also collect plasma that will be stored and used for measurement of defined 
cytokines (IL-2, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ,TNF-α) to assess Idelalisib -induced global T cell activation or for proteomic 
analysis of defined molecules associated with GVHD (proteomic studies on PTCy-based platforms are being 
prepared for publication (20)).  
Molecular studies: Immune Profiling of T cell Repertoire: The studies proposed will evaluate the T cell 
receptor (TCR) diversity in T cells isolated from PB and BM from patients before and after treatment with 
Idelalisib on the parent clinical trial. We will determine TCR diversity and clonal composition using a molecular 


Johns Hopkins Protocol ID: J1633 
IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 16 of 31 
and computational approach based on high-throughput DNA sequencing of rearranged TCRβ CDR3 regions from 
T cell genomic DNA. This approach allows direct measurement of the TCRβ CDR3 region sequence diversity in 
any arbitrarily complex population of T cells, and also permits quantitative description of the clonal composition 
of the population. (19) The Luznik laboratory in collaboration with the E. Warren laboratory from Fred 
Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC) have performed extensive monitoring and tracking of the TCR 
repertoires in patients undergoing alloHSCT (manuscript in preparation). We are utilizing an established 
multiplex PCR strategy to amplify the CDR3 region of the TCR, spanning the variable region formed by the 
junction of the V, D and J segments and their associated non-template insertions followed by Illumina-based 
sequencing methodology, an well-characterized methodology developed by Adaptive Technology 
(http://www.adaptivebiotech.com/technology/). Sequencing is followed by comprehensive bioinformatics 
analyses focused on determining the diversity of the T cell and B cell repertoires as well as the entropy and 
clonality of each repertoire consistent with previous studies. Through these ongoing studies we have developed 
substantial experience not only in using and analyzing DNA retrieved from unsorted PBMCs but also from sorted 
T cells subpopulations (naïve vs memory vs regulatory), paired PB and BM samples and as well from DNA 
retrieved from FFPE archived tissues.  
The long-term goal of this correlative work is to uncover biomarkers that in future may predict better 
integration of Idelalisib post-transplant. This correlative work will also provide deeper insight into the, effects 
of Idelalisib on GVHD and allogeneic anti-tumor immunity as well as on the mechanisms of failure to eradicate 
B cell malignancies after Idelalisib treatment. 
7.2  
Analysis of Correlative Endpoints 
The analyses of pre- and post-treatment PB and BM specimens for immune parameters will be descriptive 
and graphical in nature.  Data will be summarized for each cohort separately.  The change in flow values at each 
time point after Idealisib relative to the baseline value will be will checked for skewness and log-transformed as 
appropriate.  The changes will be modeled using mixed-effects, linear regression models that included fixed 
effects for time and a random effect for the patient to account for within-patient correlation of measurements.  
To explore potential differences in the change in flow values across patient subgroups, interaction terms will be 
included in the regression models.  Post-treatment changes in gene expression in immune gene signaling circuits 
in tumor biopsies and PB will be summarized with descriptive statistics and correlated with clinical outcomes. 
 
7.3 
OPERATING PROCEDURES FOR SPECIMEN COLLECTION 
Peripheral blood and bone marrow specimen collection will be performed as delineated in the Table 1 
Schedule of Assessment Section 4.3 and additionally at the times when peripheral blood and bone marrow 
collections are performed for clinical care such as GVHD, toxicity and/or disease relapse. 
Bone marrow: 4 x 8mL will be collected in green top sodium heparin tubes (~20-30 mL). Re-adjustment of 
the direction of bone marrow aspirate needle should take a place after each 10 cc is collected to prevent 
hemodilution. At the time of collection, green top tubes must be thoroughly mixed to prevent clotting. 
Peripheral blood: 5x8mL  green top sodium heparin tubes of blood (~40mLs) will be collected at each time 
point. 


Johns Hopkins Protocol ID: J1633 
IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 17 of 31 
Specimens should be labeled with the patient’s study number (given at the time of registration), study 
number, sample collection date and time, and sample source (PB or BM). Sample collection date and time, and 
sample source (PB or BM) will be recorded on correlative collection worksheet and copy included with delivery. 
All data should be kept in laboratory log. At each sampling time, BM and PB mononuclear cells (PBMC) will be 
processed via Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. The washed cells will be counted, triaged for DNA isolation, 
and viably cryopreserved using a controlled-rate freezer with transfer to the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen for 
long-term storage (Luznik laboratory). 
 
The Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center (SKCCC) specimens should be delivered to the Luznik 
laboratory immediately after collection.  
 
Specimen collection / processing: PB and BM specimens should be collected as outlined in the Trial Flow 
Chart 6.0.

nitrogen thereafter 
 
If there are no liquid nitrogen tanks available, it’s permissible to keep samples in -80 Celsius for up 
to 2 weeks, but no longer.  
 
Important considerations: 
1. All work should be done using standard BSL2 procedures (blood and body fluid precautions). 
2. Maintain a clean workspace and use a containment laminar airflow hood when possible. 
3. Minimize the chance of contamination. 
4. Work quickly but methodically. 
5. Keep tubes closed as much as possible and work quickly. 
6. Change gloves frequently and maintain situational awareness 
8. RISKS 
8.1. IDELALISIB RISKS 
Known toxicities of idelalisib: idelalisib is FDA approved for the treatment of relapsed chronic lymphocytic 
leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma and follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. 
Idelalisib may cause: 
1. ALT/AST elevations and hyperbilirubinemia (most frequently occurs within the first 12 weeks of 
treatment); incidence of serious hepatotoxicity: 14.0% 
2. Diarrhea (mean time to occurrence 7.2 months); incidence of serious/severe diarrhea: 14.0% 
3. Pneumonitis; incidence <5% 
4. Neutropenia: Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurs in approximately 31% of patients receiving the 150mg 
bid dose.   
5. CYP3A affects: CYP3A inducers can reduce the AUC of idelalisib by 75%; CYP3A inhibitors can increase 
the AUC of idelalisib by 1.8 fold; idelalisib is strong CYP3A inhibitor. 
6. Increase risk of developing PCP 
7. CMV viremia 
 
8.2. RISK MINIMIZATION 
Patients will have comprehensive metabolic panels performed every 14 days through day +180 , then 
monthly through day +270.  
Patients undergoing allo BMT may develop intestinal aGVHD which may present with diarrhea or ileus.  All 
patients with >3 grade diarrhea will also be evaluated for aGVHD in addition to idelalisib dose modification. 
Patients undergoing allo BMT often develop late neutropenia after achieving neutrophil recovery.  To help 
limit the depth of neutropenia that could be attributable idelalisib, idelalisib will be dosed at 100mg bid, the

schedule 
CYP3A interactions.  Commonly, patients undergoing allo BMT require azole based antifungal prophylaxis 
and/or treatment.  Patients receiving posaconazole or voriconazole will have these levels checked every 14 days 
while receiving idelalisib.  
In the post allo BMT patient population, novel toxicities need to be considered: Non T-cell engraftment and 
acute GVHD.  Stopping rules, as defined in section 6.0 will be followed to stop this study, if compared to placebo 
l controls, the differential in incidence of toxicities of any kind between the idelalisib group and the placebo 
control  group is >10%.  
CMV viremia: CMV serum PCR analysis every 14 days between days 90-and day +120, then monthly through 
day +270: treat according to BMT policy guidelines. 
PCP: continue BMT policy guidelines of PCP primary prophylaxis for at least through the time of active-study 
participation.       
9. ADVERSE EVENTS 
9.1. 
OVERVIEW 
The Principal Investigator is responsible for the detection and documentation of events meeting the criteria 
and definition of an AE (adverse event) or SAE (serious adverse event) as described in this protocol.  All AEs and 
SAEs will be recorded in the source documents and on the appropriate electronic CRF(s).  All data will be 
reviewed periodically by the SKCCC Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC), which may provide recommendations 
about withdrawing any participant and/or terminating the study because of safety concerns. 
Adverse events that are classified as serious according to the definition of health authorities must be 
reported promptly and appropriately to the Principal Investigators in the trial, IRBs and health authorities.  This 
section defines the types of AEs and outlines the procedures for appropriately collecting, grading, recording and 
reporting them.  Information in this section complies with 21CFR 312; ICH Guideline E2A: Clinical Safety Data 
Management: Definitions and Standards for Expedited Reporting; and ICH Guideline E-6: Guidelines for Good 
Clinical Practice; and applies the standards set forth in the National Cancer Institute (NCI), Common Terminology 
Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.0 (May 28, 2009). 
9.2. 
DEFINITIONS 
9.2.1 Adverse Events 
An AE is any occurrence or worsening of an undesirable or unintended sign, symptom, laboratory finding, 
or disease that occurs during participation in the trial.  An AE for participants will be followed until it resolves or 
until 30 days after the participant terminates from the study, whichever comes first. All AEs will be reported as 
specified in sections 9.2.2 and 9.2.3. Error! Reference source not found. Whether they are or are not related to 
disease progression or study participation.

IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 21 of 31 
9.2.2 Adverse Reaction and Suspected Adverse Reaction 
An adverse reaction means any adverse event caused by a drug.  Adverse reactions are a subset of all 
suspected adverse reactions for which there is reason to conclude that the drug caused the event. 
Suspected adverse reaction (SAR) means any adverse event for which there is a reasonable possibility 
that the drug caused the adverse event. For the purposes of safety reporting, ‘reasonable possibility’ means 
there is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the drug and the adverse event. A suspected 
adverse reaction implies a lesser degree of certainty about causality than adverse reaction, which means 
any adverse event caused by a drug (21 CFR 312.32(a)). 
9.2.3 Serious Adverse Event or Serious Suspected Adverse Reaction 
An AE or SAR is considered “serious” if, in the view of the Investigator, it results in any of the following 
outcomes: 
 
Death: A death that occurs during the study or that comes to the attention of the Principal 
Investigator during the protocol-defined follow-up period as defined in  section 4.0 must be 
reported whether it is considered treatment-related or not. 
 
A life-threatening event: An AE or SAR is considered “life-threatening” if, in the view of the 
Investigator, its occurrence places the subject at immediate risk of death. It does not include an AE 
or SAR that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death.  
 
An event that requires intervention to prevent permanent impairment or damage.  An important 
medical event that may not result in death, be life threatening, or require hospitalization may be 
considered serious when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, it may jeopardize the 
participant and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed 
above. 
9.2.4 Unexpected Adverse Events 
A SAR is considered “unexpected” if it is not identified in the package insert and/or drug label, or protocol, 
or is not listed at the specificity, or severity that has been observed (21 CFR 312.32(a)). 
9.3. 
COLLECTING AND RECORDING ADVERSE EVENTS 
9.3.1 Methods of Collection 
Adverse events for recipients will be collected from the time the participant receives the first dose of 
study medication as specified in section 9.4. Adverse events will be followed until the time an event is 
resolved or until 30 days after the recipient completes or terminates from the study, whichever comes first. 
The methods for collecting AEs will include:  
 
Observing the participant. 
 
Questioning the participant in an objective manner. 
 
Receiving an unsolicited complaint from the participant. 


Johns Hopkins Protocol ID: J1633 
IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 22 of 31 
An abnormal value or result from a clinical or laboratory evaluation (e.g., a radiograph, an ultrasound, 
or an electrocardiogram) can also indicate an AE if it is determined by the Investigator to be clinically 
significant.  If this is the case, it must be recorded in the source document and as an AE on the appropriate 
AE form(s).  The evaluation that produced the value or result should be repeated until that value or result 
returns to normal or can be explained and the participant’s safety is not at risk. 
9.3.2 Severity of Adverse Events to be collected 
All AE grades will be defined per NCI-CTCAE version 4.0 criteria unless otherwise specified starting at the 
beginning of Idelalisib treatment 
With the following exceptions, all AEs of grade 3 or higher will be collected from the time at which the 
participant receives the first dose of study medication as specified in section 9.4until the time the participant 
completes or prematurely withdraws from the study: 
 
Haematological abnormalities will be collected as AEs per NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0 criteria once 
participants have achieved platelet and neutrophil recovery. 
 
All episodes of allograft failure and of acute, grade III or IV GVHD will be collected as AEs. 
 
9.4. 
GRADING AND ATTRIBUTION OF ADVERSE EVENTS 
 
9.4.1 Grading Criteria 
The study site will grade the severity of AEs experienced by study participants according to the criteria set 
forth in the National Cancer Institute’s Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 
4.0 (published May 28, 2009).  This document (referred to herein as the “NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0 manual”) 
provides a common language to describe levels of severity, to analyze and interpret data, and to articulate 
the clinical significance of all AEs. 
Severity of adverse events will be graded on a scale from 1 to 5 according to the following standards in the 
NCI-CTCAE v. 4.0 manual: 
 
Grade 1 = mild adverse event. 
 
Grade 2 = moderate adverse event. 
 
Grade 3 = severe and undesirable adverse event.  
 
Grade 4 = life-threatening or disabling adverse event. 
 
Grade 5 = death.

10. ETHICAL, REGULATORY, AND ADMINISTRATIVE CONSIDERATIONS 
10.1. 
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE 
This trial will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, current Good Clinical Practice (GCP) 
guidelines—adopting the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki—and all applicable regulatory requirements. 
Prior to study initiation, the protocol and the informed consent documents will be reviewed and approved 
by the sponsor and an appropriate ethics review committee or institutional review board (IRB).  Any 
amendments to the protocol or consent materials must also be approved by the Sponsor, the IRB and submitted 
to FDA before they are implemented. 
10.2. 
INFORMED CONSENT 
The principles of informed consent are described in the Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR, part 50. 


Johns Hopkins Protocol ID: J1633 
IND: 131805 
Version Date: February 3, 2020  
 
Page 24 of 31 
Participants or their legal guardians must be made aware of the investigational nature of this treatment 
protocol, and have the possible risks, hazards and benefits of the protocol explained to them.  The information 
that is given shall be in a language understandable to the participant.  No informed consent, whether oral or 
written, may include any exculpatory language through which the patient is made to waive or appear to waive 
any of their legal rights, or releases or appears to release the Principal Investigator, the institution, or its agents 
from liability for negligence. 
The participant, or legal guardian, must be able to comprehend the informed consent and must sign the 
document prior to registration on study. This will occur between Day +60 after HSCT and Day +100.  A copy of 
the informed consent will be given to a prospective participant for review.  The attending physician, in the 
presence of a witness, will review the consent and answer questions.  The participant will be informed that 
participation is voluntary and that he/she may withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason. The 
participant will receive a copy of the respective signed consent form. 
10.3. 
PRIVACY AND CONFIDENTIALITY  
A participant’s privacy and confidentiality will be respected throughout the study.  Each participant will be 
assigned a sequential identification number.  This number, rather than the participant’s name, will be used to 
collect, store, and report participant information. 
10.4. 
INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW 
The principles of Institutional Review Board (IRB) are described in the Code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR, 
part 56. 
The Principal Investigator will obtain approval for the study from the IRB. The Principal Investigator must 
notify the IRB within 5 days of protocol deviations in emergency situations regarding patient safety. The Principal 
Investigator will be responsible for obtaining annual IRB renewal through the duration of the study, or more 
frequently if required by the IRB.  Copies of the Principal Investigator's report and copies of the IRB’s 
continuance of approval must be maintained in the regulatory binder located at the clinical site. 
10.5. 
MONITORING PLAN 
This is a DSMP Level II study under the SKCCC Data Safety Monitoring Plan (12/6/2012). Data Monitoring of 
this protocol will occur on a regular basis with the frequency dependent on the rate of subject accrual and the

Appendix 4: Counterindicated Medications 
CYP3A affects: CYP3A inducers can reduce the AUC of idelalisib by 75%; CYP3A inhibitors can increase the AUC of 
idelalisib by 1.8 fold; idelalisib is strong CYP3A inhibitor. Importantly, with direct relevance to this study is the lack 
of data supporting strong interaction with voriconazole.  Azoles are often the medication of choice for patients with 
suspect fungal or anti-bacterial non-responsive fevers during alloBMT.  The elimination of idelalisib is predominantly 
mediated by the hepatic pathway.  Idelalisib is primarily metabolized by aldehyde oxidase with a lesser involvement 
of cytochrome P450.  The major metabolite of idelalisib is GS-563117.  Data indicate that CYP3A inhibition by 
concurrent use of azoles may result in modestly higher exposures of idelalisib, but the change is not of clinical 
relevance21. In this study, as the dosing of idelalisib is already reduced to 100mg bid to provide additional risk 
mitigation.  Additionally, patient’s receiving azole therapy while on idelalisib will have serum levels monitored to 
adjust to target levels
