NCT04811560

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D\[s\]) of bleximenib in phase 1 Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine the safety and tolerability at RP2D in Phase 1 Part 2 (Dose expansion). The purpose of the Phase 2 part of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bleximenib at the RP2D.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Phase 1: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 1: Number of Participants with AEs by Severity

    Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 5 (Death). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 1: Part 1: Percentage of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)

    Percentage of participants with DLT will be assessed accordingly to national cancer institute common terminology criteria for adverse events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.

    Up to 28 days Cycle 1

  • Phase 2: Rate of Complete Remission or Complete Remission with Partial Hematologic Recovery (CR/CRh)

    Rate of CR/CRh is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a CR or CRh at any time post-treatment.

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Phase 1 and 2: Plasma Concentration of Bleximenib

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 1 and 2: Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 1: Duration of Response (DOR)

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 1 and 2: Time To Response (TTR)

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • Phase 2: Duration of Complete Response (CR)/Complete Remission With Partial Hematologic Recovery (CRh)

    Up to 4 years and 9 months

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Bleximenib

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in Phase 1 Part 1 (dose escalation) will receive bleximenib orally. The dose levels will be escalated based on the dose limiting toxicities (DLT) evaluation by Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Doses (RP2Ds) have been identified. Participants in Phase 1 Part 2 (dose expansion) will receive bleximenib orally at the RP2D(s) determined in Part 1. In Phase 2 participants will receive bleximenib at the RP2D to evaluate anti-leukemia activity and demonstrate acceptable safety at the RP2D(s).

Drug: Bleximenib

Interventions

Bleximenib is administered orally.
