What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of ABBV-744

    Cmax of ABBV-744.

    Measured: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)

  2. Time to Cmax (Tmax) of ABBV-744

    Tmax of ABBV-744.

    Measured: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)

  3. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUCt) of ABBV-744

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUCt) of ABBV-744.

    Measured: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)

  4. Terminal Phase Elimination Rate Constant (β) of ABBV-744

    Terminal Phase Elimination Rate Constant (β) of ABBV-744.

    Measured: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)

  5. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to infinity (AUCinf) of ABBV-744

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to infinity (AUCinf) of ABBV-744.

    Measured: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)

  6. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of ABBV-744

    DLT events are defined as clinically significant adverse events or abnormal laboratory values assessed as unrelated to disease progression, underlying disease, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications and occurring during the first 4 weeks after administration of the first dose and that meets additional criteria as described in the protocol.

    Measured: Up to 28 days after first dose of study drug

  7. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for ABBV-744

    The MTD is defined as the highest dose for which the estimated posterior mean DLT rate is <= 33% and excessive toxicity probability is limited to maximum of 25% during the first 28 days.

    Measured: Up to 28 days after first dose of study drug

  8. Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RPTD) for ABBV-744

    RPTD will be determined from a review available safety, pharmacokinetic, and efficacy data during the dose escalation phase (Segment 1) of the study.

    Measured: Up to 28 days after first dose of study drug

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Composite complete remission (CRc)

    Percentage of participants who achieve composite complete remission (CRc), comprised of complete remission (CR) + CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) is based on the International Working Group (IWG) criteria and European Leukemia Net criteria.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Complete Remission (CR) + CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh)

    Percentage of participants who achieve CR + CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh) is based on the International Working Group (IWG) criteria and European Leukemia Net criteria.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Percentage of participants who achieve ORR [composite complete remission (CRc) + Partial remission (PR)] is based on the International Working Group (IWG) criteria (CRc, PR) and European Leukemia Net criteria.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  4. Duration of Response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the number of days from the date of first response to the first occurrence of progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  5. Event-free survival (EFS)

    Percentage of participants who achieve EFS, where EFS is defined as the date of first dose of study drug to the date of primary refractory disease, relapse from CR or CRi, or death from any cause.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ABBV-744 in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), run by AbbVie at 7 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Strategic Reasons). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of ABBV-744 (time frame: Through Cycle 2 ( each cycle is 28 days)). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03360006, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2021.
