Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to confirm a safe dose and schedule as well as the preliminary efficacy of siremadlin alone, and in combination with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), in adult participants with AML who are in remission following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) but are at high risk for relapse based on the presence of pre-transplant risk factors.

Description:

This is a Phase Ib/II, single arm, open label, multi-center study of siremadlin as monotherapy and in combination with DLI, in adult participants with AML who are in complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi) post allo-SCT but are at high risk for relapse based on the presence of pre-transplant risk factors. The primary purpose of the study was to confirm the safe dose and schedule of siremadlin monotherapy and in combination with DLI. The study is also designed to assess the preliminary efficacy in preventing hematologic relapse. The study was initially planned to enroll approximately 38 participants starting with a dose confirmation of siremadlin monotherapy (part 1) to determine the siremadlin recommended dose, followed by a treatment strategy of siremadlin/DLI (Part 2). After enrolling 8 participants (at the starting dose 30 mg/day on days 1-5 of a 28-day treatment cycle) in part 1, Novartis took the decision to put the enrollment in permanent halt and terminate the siremadlin program. For that reason, the enrollment in part 2 will not be open. The Novartis decision was not driven by any safety concerns. In part 1, approximately 12 participants were planned to be enrolled in 2 cohorts (starting dose 30 mg/day on days 1-5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, dose level +1 at 40 mg/day and dose level -1 at 20 mg/day) and participants were planned to be treated for a maximum of 24 cycles. In part 2, participants were planned to follow a treatment strategy, which contains three consecutive phases for a maximum of 24 cycles in total: - A priming phase with siremadlin monotherapy at the recommended dose determined in Part 1 (for at least 2 cycles). Participants who are not eligible for the combination phase of siremadlin/DLI may continue priming phase with siremadlin monotherapy. - A combination phase of siremadlin in combination with DLI (siremadlin/DLI) for participants who are eligible to receive DLI (up to a total of 3 combination cycles). - A maintenance phase with siremadlin monotherapy.

• GI disorders that may prevent the intake and absorption of oral siremadlin (eg, diarrhea, uncontrolled nausea/vomiting, GI bleeding, etc).
• Any concurrent severe and/or active uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infection requiring parenteral antibacterial, antiviral or antifungal therapy. Prophylactic antimicrobial use (oral or parenteral) is allowed.
• Participants who require treatment with moderate or strong CYP3A inducers within 14 days prior to starting study treatment, or are expected to receive moderate or strong CYP3A inducers during the entire study
• Cardiac or cardiac repolarization abnormality, that are clinically significant Other protocol defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
