Acute Myeloid Leukemia Clinical Trial
Safety and Efficacy Study of PRI-724 in Subjects With Advanced Myeloid Malignancies
Summary
PRI-724 is a new investigational drug being studied to treat subjects with cancer who have advanced myeloid malignancies. PRI-724 is thought to work by blocking the Wnt signaling pathway that cancer cells need to grow and spread (metastasize).
Full Description
PRI-724 is a new investigational drug being studied to treat subjects with cancer who have advanced myeloid malignancies. PRI-724 is thought to work by blocking the Wnt signaling pathway that cancer cells need to grow and spread (metastasize).
Purpose:
To test the safety of PRI-724 when taken intravenously (through the vein).
To observe whether PRI-724 can slow or stop the progression of leukemia.
To find the Maximum Tolerated Dose (highest safe dose) in the first two parts of the study.
To find the dose of PRI-724 that should be used in the third part of the study and possible future clinical trials that will study effectiveness and additional safety.
To test the safety of combining PRI-724 with an approved cancer drug called dasatinib in treating chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).
To evaluate whether the combination of PRI-724 with the approved cancer drug dasatinib slows or stops the progression of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).
To test the safety of combining PRI-724 with an approved cancer drug called Cytarabine in treating acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
To evaluate whether the combination of PRI-724 with the approved cancer drug Cytarabine slows or stops the progression of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
To measure how much PRI-724 appears and remains in the blood after infusion.
To measure several signals called biomarkers associated with cancer in the blood to see if PRI-724 affects those signals.
Study Design:
This will be a single center, open-label escalating-dose cohort study with 3 parts: Part I during which the MTD will be determined in acute group patients; Part II during which the MTD will be determined in non-acute group patients; and Part III during which safety and tolerability of escalating doses of PRI-724 will be assessed in combination with dasatinib for CML patients or low dose ara-C therapy for AML patients ≥ 65 years of age.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
Patients 18 years or older
Part I: Patients with one of the following histologically- or cytologically-proven conditions: relapsed/refractory AML, relapsed/refractory MDS, or advanced CML in AP or BP (i.e., Acute Group patients).
Part II: Patients with one of the following documented conditions: CML in CP that is Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive (by cytogenetics) or BCR-ABL1-positive by fluorescent in situ hybridization [FISH], or PCR), as well as resistant to at least 2 FDA-approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs); or a myeloproliferative neoplasia which includes: PMF and myelofibrosis secondary to polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET) myelofibrosis (MF) (with intermediate-1, intermediate-2 or high risk disease according to the International Working Group [IWG] prognostic scoring system) (i.e., Non-Acute Group patients).
Part III:
Arm A: Patients with AML who are 65 years of age or older with refractory or relapsed disease, or who have not received prior therapy but are not eligible to receive intensive frontline chemotherapy (i.e., Acute Group patients);
Arm B: Patients with CML in AP or BP, either newly diagnosed or failing TKI therapy (i.e., Acute Group patients);
Arm C: Patients with CML in CP after failure of 2 FDA-approved TKIs (i.e., Non-Acute group patients)
Performance status 0-2 of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scale
Patients must have been off all prior therapy for leukemia except hydroxyurea for 1 week prior to entering this study and recovered from the toxic effects of that therapy
Adequate organ function as defined by:
Serum creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dL or calculated creatinine clearance ≥60 mL/min
Total bilirubin ≤2 x ULN (≤5 x ULN if considered due to Gilbert's syndrome or hemolysis)
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3xULN
Patients must sign an informed consent indicating that they are aware of the investigational nature of this study.
Women of childbearing potential and men should practice effective methods of contraception. Women of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of human chorionic gonadotropin within 7 days prior to the start of PRI 724.
Exclusion Criteria
Patients receiving any other investigational agents
Patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding
Known hypersensitivity to any of the components of PRI-724
Pretreatment QTcF interval >470 msec (females) or >450 msec (males)
Known active hepatitis B, hepatitis C
Serious uncontrolled medical disorder or active systemic infection or current unstable or decompensated medical condition, which makes it undesirable or unsafe for the patient to participate in the study including: New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 3 or 4, myocardial infarction within 3 months, uncontrolled angina within 3 months, history of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia, diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring hospitalization in 6 months prior to the start of treatment with PRI-724.
Any other condition, including mental illness or substance abuse deemed by the Investigator to be likely to interfere with a patient's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate, and participate in the study
Patients on full dose anticoagulants or any dose of warfarin; patients on prophylactic dose of low-molecular weight or unfractionated heparin are allowed.
Patients who have demonstrated intolerance to dasatinib 100 mg daily will not be eligible for Part III/Arm B or C of the study.
