An Open Label Phase I Study of Ziftomenib as Maintenance Therapy Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation
Summary
The purpose of this study is to test the safety, effects, and recommended dose of an investigational drug, ziftomenib, in addition to the standard treatment on blood cancer with Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (allo-HCT). This study plans to learn more about ziftomenib, which targets and inhibits negative interactions within cancer cells related to AML, when given after allo-HCT, to determine if it improves outcomes following allo-HCT. The name of the study drug involved in this study is: • Ziftomenib
Detailed description
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, phase I study of ziftomenib as maintenance therapy following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). This study is testing whether ziftomenib, combined with the standard allo-HCT treatment, is safe and effective in treating blood cancer. This study will test if ziftomenib improves outcomes after allo-HCT. The study drug is given after the allo-HCT, in combination with standard treatment and aftercare. This study consists of 2 parts: Part A (Dose Escalation): The investigators are looking to find the highest dose of the study intervention that can be administered safely without severe or unmanageable side effects, not everyone who participates in this research study will receive the same dose of the study intervention. The dose given will depend on the number of participants who have been enrolled prior and how well the dose was tolerated. Once determined, this highest dose will then be used in the dose expansion part of the study. Part B (Expansion Cohort): Participants will be treated at the respective dose as determined during Part A(Dose Escalation). Ziftomenib administered after allo-HCT may work to enhance graft-versus-leukemia effects, selectively target residual leukemic cells, or suppress leukemic stem cells, among other mechanisms. The U.S. Food and DrugAdministration (FDA) has not currently approved ziftomenib as a treatment for any disease but it is being studied in Phase 1/2 interventional clinical trials for participants with relapsed or refractory acute myelogenous leukemia. The estimated length of the study is 2 years. Participants will begin treatment 30 to 90 days after allo-HCT, and treatment will continue for up to 12 months. Then they will be followed for 12 to 24 months after study treatment ends. It is expected that about 22 people will take part in this research study.

Outcome measures
Primary
Maximum Tolerated Dose (Dose Escalation)
Defined as the highest dose level at which 1 or 0 of 6 patients experience a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT). Toxicities will be graded and documented according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0. A non-hematologic DLT is any grade 3 adverse event (AE) lasting \>72 hours or any grade greater than or equal to 4 AE that is at least possibly related to the study drug with exceptions. Any ≥ grade 2 non-hematologic toxicity that the participant finds intolerable or renders the participant unable to take 75% or more of the assigned doses (e.g. multiple dose interruptions) during the first cycle will be considered a DLT.
Time frame: 28 days
Secondary
Occurrence of ziftomenib-related toxicities
Time frame: Day 0 to last treatment dose, up to 336 days
Incidence of acute Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) during treatment

Non-relapse mortality (NRM)
Time frame: Day 0 to end of treatment visit, up to 1086 days (336 days of treatment + 30 days end of treatment + 24 months follow-up))
Leukemia-Free Survival (LFS)
Time frame: Day 0 to end of treatment visit, up to 1086 days (336 days of treatment + 30 days end of treatment + 24 months follow-up))
Overall Survival (OS)
Time frame: Day 0 to end of treatment visit, up to 1086 days (336 days of treatment + 30 days end of treatment + 24 months follow-up))
