About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Open-Label Study of the CSF-1R Inhibitor JNJ-40346527 in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

This phase II trial studies how well edicotinib (JNJ-40346527) works in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. JNJ-40346527 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

Evaluate preliminary efficacy of JNJ-40346527 in participants with relapsed/refractory AML.

  1. Best objective response rate (> PR).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

Assess safety and survival associated with JNJ-40346527 to treat participants with relapsed/refractory AML. Assess the duration of disease response associated with JNJ-40346527.

  1. Overall incidence of treatment-related and non-treatment related toxicity. II. Duration of response. III. 12-month event-free survival. IV. 12-month overall survival.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of JNJ-40346527 and effective inhibition of CSF-1R in marrow aspirates using plasma inhibitory assays, with established CSF-1R-sensitive cell lines.

II. Identify the effect of JNJ-40346527 on leukemia cells and the immune microenvironment.

III. Identify and quantify the specific subpopulation of cells that express CSF-1R in participants and correlate these with clinical response to JNJ-40346527.

IV. Analyze the frequency of mutations using genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from leukemia participants to determine if there is a genetic signature that predicts response to JNJ-40346527.

  1. Using ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing (RNAseq), identify an expression signature in CSF-1R+ cells that predicts patient response.

VI. Evaluate the effect of JNJ-40346527 on immune cell populations (cytotoxic T cells, etc.) and phospho-signaling proteins by mass cytometry (CyTOF) analysis in pre- and post-treatment samples in order to identify biomarkers that predict patient response and prioritize potential combination strategies for future clinical trials.

VII. Determine how leukemia cells change in response to CSF-1R inhibition by assessing cells collected pre- and post-treatment using an ex vivo sensitivity to a panel of small molecule inhibitors to determine what new drug sensitivities may emerge in AML cells after CSF-1R inhibition.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive JNJ-40346527 orally (PO) twice a day (BID) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up within 2 weeks, at 4-6 weeks until death or minimum of 12 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Best Objective Response Rate

    An objective response is defined as achievement of a PR or any type of CR (CR, CRm, CRc, CRi) during a participant's first 2 cycles of study drug. Each participant's best disease response designation (amended from the IWG criteria specified by Cheson, 2003 JCO) during the first 2 cycles will be used when computing the best objective response rate. This rate will be reported alongside an exact confidence interval for each arm separately.

    Measured: first 2 cycles of study drug

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Incidence of Treatment-related and Non-treatment Related Adverse Events Per National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0

    The overall incidence of treatment-related and non-treatment-related toxicity (including serious and non-serious AEs). See the Adverse Event module of the Results section for a tabular summary of each toxicity event and associated system organ class.

    Measured: Start of study drug until 30 days after the last dose of study drug (while the participant remains on-study), which amounted to an average of 31 days for the 3 enrolled participants

  2. Duration of Response

    For participants that achieve at least a partial response (PR), the length of time between start date of this response and progression.

    Measured: achievement of >=PR through end of study

  3. Event-free Survival

    Defined for all patients of a trial; measured from the date of entry into a study to the date of relapse from PR or CR or CRi, progression, or death from any cause; patients not known to have any of these events are censored on the date they were last examined. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate event-free survival.

    Measured: study enrollment until last on-study disease assessment

  4. Overall Survival

    Defined for all patients of a trial; measured from the date of entry into a study to the date of death from any cause; patients not known to have died at end of study are censored on the date they were last known to be alive. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate overall survival.

    Measured: From study enrollment until end of participant follow-up (i.e., death or last contact), with the protocol specifying that "[p]articipants will be followed … until death"

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Edicotinib and Pharmacokinetic Study in people with Recurrent Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by OHSU Knight Cancer Institute at 1 site 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 13 inclusion and 16 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 2 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Dec 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Best Objective Response Rate (time frame: first 2 cycles of study drug). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 2 Dec 2021.
