Brief Summary:
Phase 1/1b, open label, multi-center dose escalation and dose expansion study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK (pharmacokinetics), PD (pharmacodynamics) and anti-tumor effects of ALRN-6924 alone or in combination with cytarabine in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome with wild-type (WT) TP53

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Acute Myeloid Leukemia Myelodysplastic Syndromes Drug: ALRN-6924 Drug: ALRN-6924 in combination with cytarabine Phase 1

Detailed Description:

Phase I, open label, multi-center dose escalation (DEP) and dose expansion (EXP) study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK (pharmacokinetics), PD (pharmacodynamics) and anti-tumor effects of ALRN-6924 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome with wild-type (WT) TP53. ALRN-6924 is a stabilized cell-permeating peptide designed to disrupt interaction between the p53 tumor suppression protein and its endogenous inhibitors murine double minute 2 (MDM2) and murine double minute X (MDMX)

Men and women 18 years of age and older with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome and for which standard treatment(s) are not available or are no longer effective can be enrolled. Treatment of patients in the DEP and EXP phases will continue in the study until documentation of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient or physician decision to discontinue study participation is made.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Evaluate the safety and tolerability of ALRN-6924 alone and in combination with cytarabine [ Time Frame: From Day 1 of treatment until 30 days after the last cycle of treatment (each cycle is 28 days) ]
    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v.4.0

  2. Determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) [ Time Frame: From the first dose until the end of Cycle 2 (each cycle is 28 days) ]
    Determine the dose limiting toxicities (DLT) and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the optimal biological dose (OBD) of ALRN-6924 in adult patients with AML or MDS


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Determine PK parameters of ALRN-6924 when administered to patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) [ Time Frame: First 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) ]
    Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

  2. Determine PK parameters of ALRN-6924 when administered to patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) [ Time Frame: First 2 cycles (each cycle is 28 days) ]
    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve [AUC]

  3. Determine immunogenicity of ALRN-6924 [ Time Frame: Approximately 16 weeks ]
    Incidence of anti-ALRN-6924 antibodies

  4. Determine best overall response, duration of response, morphologic leukemia-free state, leukemia free survival, percentage of MDA patients who have achieved hematologic improvement, changes in transfusion rate and early death rate [ Time Frame: Approximately 16 weeks ]
    International Working Group (IWG) Criteria (Cheson et al, 2006)

  5. Determine best overall response, duration of response, morphologic leukemia-free state, leukemia free survival, percentage of MDA patients who have achieved hematologic improvement, changes in transfusion rate and early death rate [ Time Frame: Approximately 16 weeks ]
    AML response criteria (Dohner et al, 2010)

  6. Determine best overall response, duration of response, morphologic leukemia-free state, leukemia free survival, percentage of MDA patients who have achieved hematologic improvement, changes in transfusion rate and early death rate [ Time Frame: Approximately 16 weeks ]
    International Working Group (IWG) Criteria for hematological improvement in MDS (Cheson et al, 2000)
