Acute Myeloid Leukemia Clinical Trial
A Study Evaluating the Safety and Pharmacology of Atezolizumab Administered in Combination With Immunomodulatory Agents in Participants With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
Summary
This is a non-randomized, open-label, Phase Ib study of atezolizumab in combination with immunomodulatory agents for the treatment of participants with AML (relapsed/refractory and treatment-naive, elderly participants unfit for induction chemotherapy). The study has been designed with the intent, over time, to study multiple combinations of atezolizumab with different immunomodulatory agents in participants with AML. The study will begin with the evaluation of the combination of atezolizumab and guadecitabine (Arm A). In the future, additional arms may be added.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks

Specifically, for participants in Cohorts A3 and A4: Treatment naïve participants unfit for induction chemotherapy for AML as defined by the following: Age >= 70 or age 65 to 69 years with at least one of the following: ECOG performance status of 2, Intermediate I/II or adverse risk cytogenetic and molecular alterations per ELN 2010 guidelines or secondary AML, or other comorbidity judged incompatible with intensive chemotherapy
Adequate end-organ function
Willing and able to undergo a pre-treatment bone marrow aspirate and biopsy and subsequent bone marrow aspirates and biopsies during treatment
For women of childbearing potential: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of less than (<) 1 percent (%) per year during the treatment period and for at least 30 days after the last dose of guadecitabine or 5 months after the last dose of atezolizumab, whichever is longer
For men: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive measures, and agreement to refrain from donating sperm
