About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Study to Evaluate the Effect of Food on Pharmacokinetics of ASTX727 (Cedazuridine and Decitabine) in Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes or Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This study is designed to examine blood levels of ASTX727, a fixed-dose combination tablet containing the combination of cedazuridine (100 mg) and decitabine (35 mg), when given under fed versus fasted conditions to participants with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), including refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This study will also assess the safety of ASTX727.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1b, multicenter, open-label, randomized, two-sequence, crossover study of ASTX727 in participants with MDS, including refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation or CMML, and AML. Participants will continue to be enrolled until evaluable data is collected from 12 participants. It is expected that approximately 18 participants will be enrolled in total.

This study will be conducted in 28-day cycles. All participants will take part in Cycle 1 and may continue into Cycles ≥2 at the investigator's discretion. Participants will receive one tablet of ASTX727 containing 100 mg cedazuridine and 35 mg decitabine once daily for 5 days in 28-day cycles starting from Cycle 1 Day 1.

Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive high-calorie, high-fat breakfast meal pre-dose on either Day 2 or Day 4 of Cycle 1. Blood will be drawn at specified time points in Cycle 1 on Days 2 through 5 to assess the effect of food on the PK of cedazuridine and decitabine.

After completion of the first treatment cycle, participants may continue to receive treatment with ASTX727 at the investigator's discretion for subsequent cycles (Days 1 through 5 of 28-day cycles), until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, investigator decision to discontinue treatment, or the participant decides to discontinue treatment or withdraw from the study. In Cycles ≥2, participants will fast for 2 hours before and 2 hours after taking the ASTX727 tablet on all dosing days.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ASTX727 + Day 2 FoodDrug

    Also called cedazuridine + decitabine + food on Day 2

    ASTX727 is an oral drug product composed of a fixed-dose combination of cedazuridine (E7727), a CDA inhibitor, and decitabine. Food is a high-calorie, high-fat breakfast meal of 800-1000 calories given on Day 2.

  • ASTX727 + Day 4 FoodDrug

    Also called cedazuridine + decitabine + food on Day 4

    ASTX727 is an oral drug product composed of a fixed-dose combination of cedazuridine (E7727), a CDA inhibitor, and decitabine. Food is a high-calorie, high-fat breakfast meal of 800-1000 calories given on Day 4.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ASTX727 + Day 2 Food and ASTX727 + Day 4 Food in people with Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia, run by Astex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 4 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 10 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

AUC0-t (area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to t hours). (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 5 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 NCT03813186, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2024.
