Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a multi-center, open-label, non-randomized, two-part Phase I/Ib study of RP7214 in combination with azacitidine in patients with AML, MDS and CMML. Part I is a 3+3 dose-escalation study to identify the MTD/RP2D of RP7214 and azacitidine combination in patients with AML, MDS, and CMML. Part II is a dose-expansion study to evaluate the clinical activity and safety of RP7214 and azacitidine combination in AML.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Part I (dose escalation) RP7214 + Azacitidine

Participants will receive RP7214 orally in combination with Azacitidine in a 28-day cycle. The dose levels will be escalated until MTD/a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) has been identified.

Drug: RP7214
RP7214 will be administered daily twice a day orally; Azacitidine will be administered from Days 1 to 7 of each 28-day cycle

Experimental: Part II (dose expansion) RP7214 + Azacitidine

Participants will receive RP7214 orally at the MTD/RP2D in combination with Azacitidine in a 28-day cycle.

Drug: RP7214
RP7214 will be administered daily twice a day orally; Azacitidine will be administered from Days 1 to 7 of each 28-day cycle

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of RP7214 in combination with azacitidine [28 days]

    The maximum tolerated dose will be defined as the highest dose tested in which a DLT is experienced by 0 out of 3 or 1 out of 6 patients among the dose levels.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Tmax [35 days]

    Pharmacokinetics: Time to Reach Maximum Concentration (Tmax) of RP7214

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [2 years]

    Defined as the percentage of patients who achieve Complete Remission (CR), Complete Remission with incomplete bone marrow recovery (CRi) and Partial Remission (PR)

  3. Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [2 years]

    Defined as the percentage of patients achieving a CR, CRi, PR and Stable Disease (SD) lasting for at least 8 weeks.

  4. Duration of Remission [2 years]

    Defined as the number of days from the date of first remission (CR, CRi, or PR) to the recurrence or Progressive Disease (PD)

  5. Percentage of patients requiring blood and/or platelet transfusions [2 years]

    Defined as number of patients requiring blood and/or platelet transfusions

  6. Cmax [35 days]

    Pharmacokinetics: Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of RP7214

  7. AUC [35 days]

    Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC) of RP7214

  5. Patient who discontinued prior therapy with DHODH inhibitors or azacitidine due to drug-related toxicity.

  6. Evidence of uncontrolled/progressing infection.

  7. Patients with immediate life-threatening, severe complications of leukemia such as uncontrolled bleeding, pneumonia with hypoxia or shock, and/or Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC).
