A Study of CYP-001 in Combination With Corticosteroids in Adults With High-risk aGvHD
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is a prospective randomized placebo-controlled phase 2 study to compare CYP-001 plus corticosteroids (CS) to placebo plus CS in allogeneic hematologic stem cell transplant recipients with HR-aGvHD. Severity of GvHD will be assessed at screening and throughout the study using Mount Sinai Acute GvHD International Consortium (MAGIC) guidelines. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either CYP-001 IV infusion on Days 0 and 4 or placebo on the same days. All subjects will receive ongoing CS therapy as appropriate per institutional guidelines. Subjects will have study visits up to Day 100 during the Primary Evaluation Period. During the Follow-Up Period, subjects will have study visits up to 24 months.

Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: CYP-001 plus corticosteroids
|
Biological: CYP-001 (Cymerus mesenchymoangioblast-derived mesenchymal stem cells; MCA-derived MSCs)
MCA-derived MSCs are derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using the proprietary Cymerus platform technology
Drug: Corticosteroids
All enrolled subjects in this trial must receive corticosteroids at a minimum dose of oral prednisone 2 mg/kg/day (or methylprednisolone 1.6 mg/kg/day IV) as therapy for aGvHD for at least for 72 hours post enrollment.
|
| Placebo Comparator: Placebo plus corticosteroids
|
Biological: Placebo
The placebo product is identical to CYP-001, except that it contains no active agent
Drug: Corticosteroids
All enrolled subjects in this trial must receive corticosteroids at a minimum dose of oral prednisone 2 mg/kg/day (or methylprednisolone 1.6 mg/kg/day IV) as therapy for aGvHD for at least for 72 hours post enrollment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall response rate (ORR) [28 days]
ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects demonstrating a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) without requirement for additional systemic therapies for an earlier progression, a mixed response or a nonresponse.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Durable Overall response rate (ORR) [100 days]
Durable ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects demonstrating OR at Day 28 and maintaining OR at Day 60 and Day 100
- Overall response rate (ORR) [100 days]
ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects demonstrating a CR or PR without requirement for additional systemic therapies for an earlier progression, a mixed response or a nonresponse.
- Complete response rate (CRR) [100 days]
ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects demonstrating a CR without requirement for additional systemic therapies for an earlier progression, a mixed response or a nonresponse.
- Overall survival [2 years]
The Kaplan Meier curve will be used to estimate the distribution of overall survival and the probability of surviving to relevant timepoints.
- Event-free survival [2 years]
Event-Free survival is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of hematologic disease relapse/progression, graft failure, or death due to any cause.
- Time to non-relapse mortality [2 years]
Time to non-relapse mortality is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death not preceded by hematologic disease relapse/progression.
- Failure-free survival [2 years]
Failure-free survival is defined as the time from the date of randomization to date of hematologic disease relapse/progression, non-relapse mortality, or addition of new systemic aGvHD treatment
- Time to malignancy relapse/progression [2 years]
Time to malignancy relapse/progression is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date to hematologic malignancy relapse/progression.
- Incidence of chronic GvHD [2 years]
Chronic GvHD is defined as the diagnosis of mild, moderate, or severe chronic GvHD.
- Weekly cumulative steroid dose [100 days]
The total corticosteroid dose administered each week
- Patient reported outcomes: Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Bone Marrow Transplantation (FACT-BMT) instrument [2 years]
The FACT-BMT form was designed to measure the quality of life in patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation.
- Patient reported outcomes: EuroQol 5-Dimension (EQ-5D) health-related quality of life instrument [2 years]
EQ-5D is a standardized measure of health-related quality of life
- Incidence, severity, duration of treatment-emergent adverse events [2 years]
Assessment of safety
