A Safety and Efficacy Study of Oral Venetoclax Tablets and Injectable Azacitidine Versus Best Supportive Care as Maintenance Therapy in Adult Participants With Acute Myeloid Leukemia in First Remission After Conventional Chemotherapy to Evaluate Improvement in Relapse-Free Survival

NCT04102020

Description:

The main objective of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of venetoclax in combination with azacitidine (AZA) and best supportive care (BSC) compared to BSC as maintenance therapy in adult participants with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first remission after conventional chemotherapy. This study will be conducted in two parts. Part 1 will be the Dose Confirmation portion to determine recommended Phase 3 dose of venetoclax in combination with AZA. Part 2 will be the randomization portion to evaluate if venetoclax in combination with AZA as maintenance therapy improves RFS comparing to BSC. Part 2 begins after Part 1 is completed. During this study, participants will receive venetoclax and azacitidine or best supportive care for approximately 2 years with study visits varying from 1-5 per month. Part 3 will be the Dose Finding portion to determine levels of venetoclax in combination with Azacitidine (CC-486) to be explored. CC-486, and BSC may be administered for up to 24 cycles.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Measure:Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) (Part 1)
    Time Frame:Time from treatment of first participant to 20th participant reaching end of cycle 1, approximately 7 Months
    Safety Issue:
    Description:DLTs are any of the hematologic, nonhematologic toxicities, adverse events (AEs) occurring following administration of venetoclax as described in the protocol and evaluated by the Investigator and the sponsor.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Measure:Overall Survival (OS)
    Time Frame:Time from treatment to death from any cause, up to approximately 3 years
    Safety Issue:
    Description:OS is defined as the number of days from the date of randomization to the date of death.
    Measure:Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Minimal Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)
    Time Frame:Measured From Baseline to approximately 3.5 years after the first participant is randomized
    Safety Issue:
    Description:The MRD conversion rate is defined as the percentage of participants deemed MRD positive (≥ 10^-3) at study initiation who converted to MRD of < 10^-3 in the bone marrow after randomization or initiation of treatment.
    Measure:Time to Deterioration in Global Health Status (GHS)/Quality-of Life (QoL) Score Based on European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life Questionnaire-Core 30-Item (EORTC QLQ-C30) Scoring Manual (Part 2)
    Time Frame:Measured From Baseline to approximately 3.5 years after the first participant is randomized
    Safety Issue:
    Description:The EORTC-QLQ-C30 is a 30-item subject self-report questionnaire composed of both multi-item and single scales, including global health status/quality of life, functional Scales (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social) , symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and pain), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Participants rate items on a 4-point scale, with 1 as "not at all" and 4 as "very much."

    Time Frame:Measured From Baseline to approximately 3.5 years after the first participant is randomized
    Safety Issue:
    Description:Fatigue will be assessed using the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Fatigue Short Form (SF) 7a. PROMIS Fatigue SF 7a is a 7-item questionnaire that assesses the impact and experience of fatigue over the past 7 days. Participants rate items on a 5-point scale, with 1 as "never" an 5 as "always".
    Measure:Change From Baseline in Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) in Items from EORTC QLQ-C30 between Arms A and B (Part 2)
    Time Frame:Measured From Baseline to approximately 3.5 years after the first participant is randomized
