Brief Summary

A phase 1/2 dose escalation / dose expansion study of Enzomenib (DSP-5336) in adult patients with acute leukemia.

Detailed Description

Phase 1 (dose escalation) will determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) (i.e. the lowest dose of Enzomenib (DSP-5336), that provides the maximum biologic and clinical effect, or the MTD, whichever is lower) in adult patients with relapsed or refractory AML, ALL, or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage. Enrollment to the phase 1 portion of the study may be limited to patients with certain genetic abnormalities.

Phase 2 dose-expansion will further evaluate the safety and clinical activity of Enzomenib (DSP-5336) monotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory AML who have MLLr or NPM1m, and relapsed/refractory ALL who have MLLr.

Inclusion Criteria

Patients in the Phase 1 dose-escalation portion must have a diagnosis of relapsed or refractory AML, ALL or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage according to World Health Organization (WHO) 2022 classification, or, in the US only, a diagnosis of MDS or MM as determined by pathology review at the treating institution, and whose disease has progressed after available standard therapies known to be active for their AML, ALL, or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage or, in the US, for MM or MDS.

For patients with MDS (US only):

  1. Patients with MDS must have IPSS-R risk categorization of "high" or "very high" at initial diagnosis or at study entry and have bone marrow blasts ≥ 5% (which is the definition of high-risk MDS in this study)
  2. Patients with MDS must have relapsed or refractory disease and have exhausted available standard therapies including at least 2 cycles of treatment with HMA

For patients with MM (US only):

  1. Have a confirmed diagnosis of multiple myeloma according to International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) 2016 classification (Kumar, 2016) and whose disease has progressed after treatment with a minimum of 3 prior anti-myeloma regimens including a proteasome inhibitor (PI), an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD), and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb); patients must not be candidates for available therapies with established clinical benefit
  2. Have measurable disease as defined in the protocol
  3. Meet the laboratory parameters set in the protocol

For patients with relapsed/refractory AML in the venetoclax and azacitidine combination cohort (in countries and sites where permitted):
