Phase 2

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Chronic Myeloid Leukemia; Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
• Interventions: Drug: Ponatinib 30mg OD; Drug: Ponatinib 45mg OD

• Registration Number: NCT04233346
• Lead Sponsor: Otsuka Beijing Research Institute

Brief Summary

This protocol will allow ponatinib with refractory Chronic Myeloid Leukemia or Ph+ Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of ponatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) or with Ph positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who either are resistant or intolerant to either dasatinib or nilotinib, or have the T315I mutation.

3. Underwent autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplant < 60 days prior to receiving the first dose of Ponatinib;

4. Take medications that are known to be associated with Torsades de Pointes or QT interval prolongation.

5. Require concurrent treatment with immunosuppressive agents, other than corticosteroids prescribed for a short course of therapy.

6. Have previously been treated with Ponatinib or its analogues (including drug substance).

7. Patients with CP-CML are excluded if they are in CCyR.

8. Have active central nervous system (CNS) disease, as evidenced by cytology or pathology.

11. Have a history of pancreatitis or alcohol abuse

12. Severely increased hypertriglyceridemia (triglycerides ≥ 5.6 mmol/L).

13. Have malabsorption syndrome or other gastrointestinal illness that could affect absorption of orally administered Ponatinib.

15. Are pregnant or lactating.

16. Underwent major surgery (with the exception of minor surgical procedures, such as catheter placement or BM biopsy) within 14 days prior to first dose of Ponatinib.

17. Infectious diseases test showed anti-HIV (+) or anti-HCV (+) or HbsAg (+) or TP (+).

18. Suffer from any condition or illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise patient safety or interfere with the evaluation of the safety of the study drug.

19. Have hypertension (diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg and/or systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg).

20. Taken herbal preparations or related over-the-counter preparations containing Chinese herbal ingredients within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of Ponatinib.
