• Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease present for 5 years before enrollment and felt to be at low risk for recurrence by the treating physician.

• Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence of disease

• Adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.

• Adequately treated breast ductal carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.

• Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia without evidence of prostate cancer.

• Known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBsAg positive) or hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV positive)

Medications or Other Treatments

• Autologous HSCT within 6 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment

• AlloHSCT within 3 months prior to start of blinatumomab treatment

• Any active acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD), grade 2-4 according to the Glucksberg criteria or active chronic GvHD requiring systemic treatment

• Any systemic therapy against active GvHD within 2 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment

• Cancer chemotherapy within 2 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment (intrathecal chemotherapy and dexamethasone are allowed until start of blinatumomab treatment). In addition, any subject whose organ toxicity (excluding hematologic) from prior ALL treatment has not resolved to common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) ≤ grade 1.

• Radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment

• Immunotherapy (eg, rituximab) within 4 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment

• Currently receiving treatment in another investigational device or drug study, or less than 4 weeks prior to start of blinatumomab treatment.

• Previous treatment with anti-CD19 therapy

General

• Known hypersensitivity to immunoglobulins or to any other component of the IMP formulation

• Pregnant women and women planning to become pregnant should not participate in this study. Subjects who are breast feeding prior to start of blinatumomab treatment may be enrolled if they stop breast feeding with breast milk produced during blinatumomab treatment and for an additional 48 hours after the last dose of blinatumomab.

• Male participants are not required to use birth control during treatment with blinatumomab. However, you should let your female partner know you are in this study.

• Subject likely to not be available to complete all protocol-required study visits or procedures, including follow-up visits, and/or to comply with all required study procedures to the best of the subject and investigator's knowledge.

• History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, condition or disease (with the exception of those outlined above) that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Amgen physician, if consulted, would pose a risk to subject safety or interfere with the study evaluation, procedures or completion.

• Previous treatment with blinatumomab

• Abnormal screening laboratory values as defined below:

• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase ALT and/or alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≥ 5 * upper limit of normal (ULN)

• Total bilirubin (TBL) ≥ 1.5 * ULN (unless related to Gilbert´s or Meulengracht disease)

• Creatinine ≥ 1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance < 60 ml/min (calculated)

• Woman of childbearing potential and is not willing to use 2 effective methods of contraception during treatment and for an additional 48 hours after the last dose of blinatumomab. Birth control is not required for postmenopausal women, or women with uterus/or both ovaries/ or both fallopian tubes removed.
