A Phase 1/2, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation, Dose-Expansion Study of DSP-5336 in Adult Patients With Acute Leukemia and Other Selected Hematologic Malignancies, With and Without Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) Rearrangement or Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) Mutation
A phase 1/2 dose escalation / dose expansion study of Enzomenib (DSP-5336) in adult patients with acute leukemia.
‣ Patients in the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion must have a diagnosis of relapsed or refractory AML, ALL or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage according to World Health Organization (WHO) 2022 classification, or, in the US only, a diagnosis of MDS or MM as determined by pathology review at the treating institution, and whose disease has progressed after available standard therapies known to be active for their AML, ALL, or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage or, in the US, for MM or MDS.
‣ For patients with MDS (US only):
• Patients with MDS must have IPSS-R risk categorization of high or very high at initial diagnosis or at study entry and have bone marrow blasts ≥ 5% (which is the definition of high-risk MDS in this study)
• Patients with MDS must have relapsed or refractory disease and have exhausted available standard therapies including at least 2 cycles of treatment with HMA
‣ For patients with MM (US only):
• Have a confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma according to International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 classification (Kumar, 2016) and whose disease has progressed after treatment with a minimum of 3 prior anti-myeloma regimens including a proteasome inhibitor (PI), an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD), and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb); patients must not be candidates for available therapies with established clinical benefit
• Have measurable disease as defined in the protocol
• Meet the laboratory parameters set in the protocol
‣ For patients with relapsed/refractory AML in the venetoclax and azacitidine combination cohort (in countries and sites where permitted):
• Have MLLr or NPM1m.
• For patients with relapsed/refractory AML in the gilteritinib combination cohort (in countries and sites where permitted):
• Have MLLr or NPM1m AND any of the following FLT3 mutations: FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD/D835 or FLT3-TKD/I836.
‣ Patients in the Phase 2 dose expansion portion of the study must have a confirmed diagnosis of relapsed AML or ALL as determined by pathology review at the treating institution, and who have ≥5% blasts by morphologic assessment in the bone marrow and failed available standard therapies known to be active for their AML (Arm G and H) or ALL (Arm I). If the primary disease is a transformation from MDS or other hematologic malignancies, patients need to receive available standard therapies for acute leukemia before enrolling this trial. Participants who are candidates for stem cell transplantation must have been offered this therapeutic option. Patients with extramedullary disease or peripheral blasts as the only manifestation of relapse are not eligible.
• Patients must not have had prior exposure to a menin inhibitor
• Patients for Arms G and H are limited to a total of 3 prior lines of therapy, with induction chemotherapy, consolidation chemotherapy, and stem cell transplantation with or without subsequent maintenance treatment considered to be 1 line.
• Have a documented KMT2A (MLL)-fusion for Arm G and I or NPM1 mutation for Arm H assessed at relapse or immediately prior to the determination of refractory status. For Arms G and I, KMT2A genetic alterations other than fusions (eg, KMT2A-PTD, amplification, point mutation) are not permitted.
• Be \> 18 years of age. For countries and sites where approved, for DSP-5336 monotherapy, acute leukemia patients ≥12 years of age who weigh ≥40 kg may be enrolled.
• ECOG \< 2; For Phase 2 only, patients must have an ECOG performance status 0 or 1.
• For monotherapy, WBC below 30,000/μ. For the combination arms, WBC count must be below 25,000/uL at enrollment and prior to starting treatment. (Hydroxyurea and steroids for cytoreduction purposes are allowed prior to enrollment and during study treatment)
• Clearance of creatinine (CLcr) level ≥ 50 ml/min, assessed by the Cockcroft-Gault formula
• Total bilirubin ≤1.5 the upper limit of normal (ULN) (or ≤2.0 ULN for patients with known Gilbert's syndrome)
• Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤3.0 times ULN
⁃ Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤3.0 times ULN
⁃ Any prior treatment-related toxicities resolved to ≤Grade 1 prior to enrollment, with the exception of ≤Grade 2 alopecia or neuropathy.
⁃ Be willing to attend study visits as required by the protocol
⁃ Have an estimated life expectancy ≥3 months, based on the investigator's assessment
⁃ Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test.
⁃ Must agree to use a highly effective contraception method or 2 acceptable methods of birth control (each partner must use one method) or use prevention of pregnancy measures (ie, agreement to refrain completely from heterosexual intercourse) during the study and for 6 months (for females and males alike) after the last dose of study drug, if male or female patient is of child-producing potential
⁃ For sites in Japan only: Implantable hormonal contraceptives, a diaphragm with spermicide, cervical cap with spermicide and contraceptive sponge (spermicide is already in the contraceptive sponge) included in the barrier contraceptive method are not approved and cannot be used in Japan.
⁃ Have AML/ALL/MDS/MM bone marrow material suitable for genomic analysis of AML,ALL, MDS, or MM genetic alterations. Note: If a bone marrow material is insufficient, an alternative suitable tissue (ex: peripheral blood) must be provided.
