profile of cusatuzumab in combination with azacitidine in Japanese participants with
treatment naïve acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not candidates for intensive treatment.

Part 1 (Dose Finding): Cusatuzumab + Azacitidine | Experimental | Participants with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) will receive cusatuzumab intravenously (IV) in combination with azacitidine subcutaneously (SC) or IV. The dose levels will be escalated based on the decisions of the Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) has been identified. | |
Part 2 (Dose Expansion): Cusatuzumab + Azacitidine | Experimental | Participants with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) will receive cusatuzumab intravenously (IV) at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) determined in Part 1 in combination with azacitidine subcutaneously (SC) or IV. | |
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- For acute myeloid leukemia (AML) participants: AML according to World Health
Organization (WHO) 2016 criteria and fulfilling all of the following criteria:(a) more
than or equal to (>=) 75 years of age, or younger participants who are not eligible
for or not willing to receive an intensive treatment (including stem cell
transplantation) with a curative intent and (b) previously untreated AML (except:
emergency leukapheresis, low dose of cytarabine and/or hydroxyurea during the
screening phase to control hyperleukocytosis but must be discontinued at least one day
prior to start of cusatuzumab [Part 1] or azacitidine [Part 2]). All trans retinoic
acid (ATRA) treatment for presumed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is permitted but
must be discontinued at least 1 day prior to the start of azacitidine
- For Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) participants (only for Part 2): MDS according to
WHO 2016 criteria and fulfilling all of the following criteria: (a) Not eligible for
or not willing to receive allogenic stem cell transplantation,(b) very high or
high-risk MDS according to Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R)
and (c) previously untreated MDS (except: transfusion and/or cytokine therapy
including erythropoietin)
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0, 1 or 2
- Must sign an informed consent form (ICF) indicating that he or she understands the
purpose of, and procedures required for, the study and is willing to participate in
the study
- A woman of childbearing potential must have a negative highly sensitive serum (beta
human chorionic gonadotropin [beta hCG]) or urine pregnancy at screening
Exclusion Criteria:
- Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t (15;17), or its molecular equivalent
promyelocytic leukemia retinoic acid receptor (PML RAR alpha)
- Leukemic involvement or clinical symptoms of leukemic involvement of the central
nervous system
- Known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to cusatuzumab or azacitidine or its
excipients (example, mannitol, an excipient of azacitidine)
- Prior treatment with a hypomethylating agent for treatment of AML or MDS
- A diagnosis of other malignancy that requires concurrent nonsurgical treatment
