Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of JNJ-64619178 in participants with relapsed/refractory B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or advanced solid tumors and also to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) of JNJ-64619178 for NHL and advanced solid tumors (Part 1) and to confirm the tolerability of JNJ-64619178 in participants with lower risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) (Part 2).

Description:

The study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of JNJ-64619178, and to select a dose(s) and regimen(s) that may be used in future clinical development. Study evaluations will include safety, pharmacokinetics, biomarkers and efficacy evaluations (Disease Assessments). Adverse events will be evaluated throughout the study. The study is divided into 4 periods: a screening phase, a pharmacokinetic run-in phase, a treatment phase, and a post treatment follow-up phase. An end-of-treatment visit will be completed less than or equal (<=) 30 days (+7 days) after the last dose of study drug or prior to the start of a new anticancer therapy, whichever comes first.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs)	DLTs are defined as certain non-hematologic and hematologic toxicities of Grade 3 or higher.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AE)	AE is any untoward medical occurrence in participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with AE by Severity	Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE). Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 4 (Life-threatening). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Abnormal Vital Signs	Number of participants with abnormality in vital signs (temperature, pulse/heart rate, and blood pressure) will be reported.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Laboratory Abnormalities	Number of participants with laboratory abnormalities (serum chemistry, hematology, and coagulation, and disease-related laboratory abnormalities) will be reported.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities	Number of participants with electrocardiogram(ECG) abnormalities will be reported.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of JNJ-64619178	Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time Zero to End of Dosing Interval (AUCtau)	AUCtau is the measure of the plasma drug concentration from time zero to end of dosing interval.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Minimum Plasma Concentration (Cmin)	Cmin is the minimum observed plasma concentration.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Plasma Decay Half-Life (t1/2)	Plasma decay half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by one half.	Approximately 3 years
Secondary	Part 1 and Part 2: Volume of Distribution at Steady-State Influenced by the Fraction Absorbed (Vss/F)	Volume of distribution is defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired blood concentration of a drug. Steady state volume of distribution (Vss) is the apparent volume of distribution at steady state which is estimated by (D/AUC[0-infinity])* (AUMC[0-infinity])/(AUC[0-infinity]) where D is the dose of study drug, AUMC(0-infinity) is the area under the first moment curve extrapolated to infinity and AUC (0-infinity) is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinite time. All these parameters will be assessed as influenced by the fraction absorbed.	Approximately 3 years
