Pharmacological Study of Intravenous OTS167 in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Advanced Myeloproliferative Neoplastic Disorders, or Advanced Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

NCT02795520

Description:

The purpose of Phase I of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of the investigational drug, OTS167, and that of Phase II of this study is to confirm the potential response benefit of OTS167. OTS167 is a maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) inhibitor which demonstrated antitumor properties in laboratory tests. It is being developed as an anti-cancer drug. In this study OTS167 will be administrated to patients with AML, ALL, advanced MDSs, advanced MPNs, or advanced CML.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          1. Diagnosis of:

               -  Relapsed or refractory AML (refractory to a standard anthracycline-based
                  induction regimen or a hypomethylating agent for patients unfit for intensive
                  chemotherapy or for whom no standard or curative therapy exists),

               -  ALL,

               -  Acute biphenotypic leukemia (assigned to the appropriate group by the treating
                  physician by documented analysis of relevant laboratory values and
                  pathology/cytogenetics),

               -  Advanced MDS defined as ≥5% bone marrow blasts or ≥2% blasts in the peripheral
                  blood (including patients who have progressed following treatment with
                  hypomethylating agents),

               -  Advanced MPN (excluding patients with ET, PV, or low risk MF), and MDS/MPN
                  overlap syndrome with ≥5% bone marrow blasts or ≥2% blasts in the peripheral
                  blood, or

               -  Advanced CML after failure/progression of at least 3 prior TKIs

          2. Age ≥18 years

          3. No prior antineoplastic drug therapy for at least 14 days, with the exception of
             hydroxyurea, prior to starting OTS167. Patients with rapidly proliferative disease may
             continue to receive hydroxyurea

          4. Patients refractory to all approved therapies or for which no approved or conventional
             therapies are available

          5. Patients with a diagnosis of advanced CML must have been treated with 3 prior TKIs,
             and the last therapy must have been discontinued at least 14 days prior to starting
             OTS167

          6. Adequate organ function as defined below:

               -  Liver function (total bilirubin <2 mg/dL and aspartate aminotransferase and/or
                  alanine aminotransferase <3 × upper limit of normal (ULN) or <5 × ULN if related
                  to leukemic involvement)

               -  Renal function (creatinine <1.5 × ULN)

          7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2

          8. Negative urine pregnancy test within 1 week prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 for each woman of

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. Pregnant or breastfeeding patients (pregnant and breastfeeding women are excluded from
