Details and patient eligibility

About

The goal of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, anti-tumor activity (efficacy), pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of the agent RVU120 when administered to adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or relapsed or progressing high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS) and who have no alternative therapies available. The study consists of two parts. Part 1 will assess the safety and tolerability of the dosages given and the level of anti-tumor activity or clinical response. Based on the results from part 1 the study will continue to enrol patient into Part 2 which will continue to evaluate safety and tolerability and anti-tumor activity in a larger number of patients.

Full description

Patients entering the study will undergo a Screening Period of up to 21 days, a Treatment Period where they will take the drug every other day (7 times in 13 days) in cycles of 21 days, an End of Treatment period (lasting approximately 30 days after last dose), and a 1-year Follow-up Period where participants will be contacted every 3 months for progression and survival status. In Part 1, patients with AML or HR-MDS will be enrolled. All patients will receive RVU120 until the patient meets eligibility for transplant, until there is disease progression or if there are signs of intolerance. A patient may withdraw from the study at any time at their own request or may be withdrawn at any time at the discretion of the Investigator. Depending on the outcome of part 1, part 2 may include patients with HR-MDS and AML irrespective of NPM1 mutation status.
