Registration Number
NCT02181699
Lead Sponsor
Kyowa Kirin, Inc.
Brief Summary

This is a first in human, non-randomized, open-label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and pharmacodynamics of repeat doses of KHK2823.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study of KHK2823 in adult patients with previously untreated AML who are not candidates for intensive remission induction therapy; relapsed/refractory AML for whom no other standard therapy is available or appropriate; or relapsed/refractory MDS who have received prior therapy with a hypomethylating agent, such as decitabine and azacitidine or who are not candidates to receive a hypomethylating agent, this would include high risk or transfusion-dependent low risk patients. Patients must have documented primary or secondary AML or MDS according to World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. Following the provision of signed informed consent, patients will be screened for entry into the study. The study consists of 2 parts. In Part 1, 3 to 6 patients per cohort will be enrolled sequentially in up to 7 dose-escalation cohorts to establish the MTD. KHK2823 will be administered once weekly. In Part 2, up to an additional 18 patients may be enrolled to further evaluate the safety, PK, PD, potential anti-leukemic activity of KHK2823.
