Brief Summary:
This is a Phase 1, open-label, 3 + 3 dose escalation study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of voruciclib in subjects with relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies and AML after treatment with standard therapy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Follicular Lymphoma (FL) Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Drug: voruciclib Phase 1

Detailed Description:

This is a Phase 1, open-label, 3 + 3 dose escalation study to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of voruciclib in subjects with relapsed/refractory B cell malignancies and AML after treatment with standard therapy. Escalation to the next higher dose level will depend on demonstrated safety and tolerability at each dose level.

Subjects may continue to receive voruciclib while there is evidence of clinical benefit and acceptable toxicity as judged by the investigator.

Arms and Interventions
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: voruciclib
Open-label, 3 + 3 dose escalation study which may enroll up to 6 subjects at each dose level and disease type (AML or B-cell malignancies)
 Drug: voruciclib
Voruciclib is provided as 50 mg and 100 mg capsules and is administered orally once a day


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of voruciclib [ Time Frame: 2 years ]

    Safety will be measured by the incidence of all AEs and SAEs, timing, grade [CTCAE v4.03] severity, seriousness, relatedness.

    Tolerability will be measured by the incidence of DLTs (dose limiting toxicities)



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    defined as the sum of complete response (CR), complete remission with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi) and partial response (PR) for B-cell malignancies, or for AML the sum of CR/CRi rate by the 2017 European LeukemiaNet (ELN) criteria

  2. Duration of Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    defined as the time from the initial determination of response to the time of disease progression or death on study, which ever occurs first

  3. Rate of CR/CRi [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    defined as the proportion of subjects with CR and CRi (i.e 2 CRs or CRis at least 28 days apart) according to IWG criteria

  4. Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    defined as the time from the first dose of study drug administration (Cycle 1 Day 1) to disease recurrence or progression as defined by IWG criteria, or death on study

  5. Evaluate the PK of voruciclib [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Determined by the Area Under the Concentration time curve (AUC)

  6. Evaluate the PK of voruciclib Cmax [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    Determined by Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

  • Evidence of an ongoing systemic bacterial, fungal, or viral infection (including upper respiratory tract infections) at the time of start of voruciclib therapy
  • Prior solid organ transplantation
  • Receipt of an allogeneic transplant within 6 months or an autologous transplant within the preceding 3 months; evidence of ongoing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)
