Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Tuspetinib (HM43239) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

PHASE1PHASE2RECRUITING

The main purpose of this study is to identify a safe and potentially effective dose of tuspetinib to be used in future studies in study participants diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes with increased blasts grade 2 (MDS-IB2), or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) that is relapsed or refractory after at least one line of prior therapy, or in study participants with newly diagnosed AML. Tuspetinib will be administered as a single agent or in combination with other drugs (venetoclax or venetoclax plus azacitidine), as specified for each part of the study.

Study details:

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center study designed to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics, including determining the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of tuspetinib (HM43239) in subjects with relapsed or treatment-refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Part C: This portion of the study will evaluate tuspetinib (HM43239) as monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) AML, focusing on safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy (Aptivate). Part D: This portion of the study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK parameters of tuspetinib (HM43239) in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine when administered to newly diagnosed AML patients who are ineligible for induction chemotherapy (Tuscany).
