A Phase 1b/2 Open-Label Study of APVO436 in Combination With Venetoclax and Azacitidine in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

NCT ID: NCT06634394Sponsor: Aptevo TherapeuticsLast updated: 2025-05-11

Summary

A multi-center, open-label, dose-finding study of five dose levels of APVO436 in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine (ven/aza) in adult patients with newly diagnosed, CD123+ AML.

Detailed description

Phase 1b consists of 28-day cycles of treatment in five sequential cohorts. In Cycle 1 (C1) only, to reduce the risk of CRS, each cohort will receive 4 priming doses of APVO436 respectively. APVO436 will be given in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine. For C1D15 and all doses in each subsequent cycle, cohorts will receive APVO436 at the determined cohort dose level. APVO436 dosing will be administered by a 4-hour intravenous (IV) infusion.

Arms & interventions

  • DrugAPVO436

    Infusion drug administered as a 4 hour infusion.

  • DrugVenetoclax

    Oral tablet given on days 1 through 22, of a 28 day cycle.

  • DrugAzacitidine

    Intravenous infusion given on days 1-8 of a 28 day cycle

Outcome measures

Primary

  • To assess the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of increasing doses of APVO436 in combination with venetoclax/azacitidine in patients with newly diagnosed AML

    Incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including ≥Grade 3 adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), and AEs of special interest (AESIs: ≥Grade 2 infusion related reaction (IRR), ≥Grade 2 cardiac toxicity, and ≥Grade 2 neurotoxicity as complication of cytokine release syndrome \[CRS\]).

    Time frame: Through the end study completion average of 1 year.

Secondary

  • Determine the efficacy of increasing doses of APVO436 in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in patients with newly diagnosed AML

    Time frame: Through the end study completion average of 1 year.

Creatinine clearance 30-45 mL/min based on Cockcroft-Gault or Modified of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formular 6. Hepatic disorder with total bilirubin between 1.5 and 3 times the ULN 5. Patient must have a projected life expectancy of ≥12 weeks Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patient has received treatment with the following: 1. A hypomethylating agent, venetoclax, and/or chemotherapeutic agent for AML, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPS/MPN) 2. CAR-T cell therapy or history of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) 3. Experimental therapies for MDS or AML 2.
