Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) of JNJ-75276617 in Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine safety and tolerability at the RP2D(s) in Part 2 (Dose Expansion).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Acute Leukemias Acute Myeloid Leukemia Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Drug: JNJ-75276617 Phase 1

Detailed Description:
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by uncontrolled clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells (myeloid blasts) in the peripheral blood, bone marrow, and other tissues. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a hematologic malignancy propagated by impaired differentiation, proliferation, and accumulation of lymphoid progenitor cells in the bone marrow and/or extramedullary sites. JNJ-75276617 is an orally bioavailable, potent, and selective protein-protein interaction inhibitor of the binding between histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A ([KMT2A], also called mixed-lineage leukemia 1 [MLL1]; wild-type and fusion) and menin, with activity in leukemic cell lines and primary leukemia patient or patient-derived samples with either KMT2A alterations including gene rearrangements (KMT2A-r), duplications, and amplification, or nucleophosmin 1 gene (NPM1) alterations. The primary goal of this FIH study is to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of JNJ-75276617 with an acceptable safety profile. The total duration of the study is up to 2 years and 10 months. Safety assessment will include adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), physical examination, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, vital signs, electrocardiogram, clinical safety laboratory assessment and pregnancy testing.

Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Sequential Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A First in Human Study of the Menin-KMT2A (MLL1) Inhibitor JNJ-75276617 in Participants With Acute Leukemia

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: JNJ-75276617
Participants in Part 1 (dose escalation) will receive JNJ-75276617 orally on a 28-day cycle. The dose levels will be escalated based on the dose limiting toxicities (DLT) evaluation by Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Doses (RP2Ds) has been identified. Participants in Part 2 (dose expansion) will receive JNJ-75276617 orally at one of the RP2D(s) determined in Part 1. Food effect cohort (optional) participants will receive JNJ-75276617 orally on Cycle 2 Day 1 under fasted condition and on Cycle 2 Day 2 under fed condition.
Drug: JNJ-75276617
JNJ-75276617 is administered orally.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.

  2. Number of Participants with AEs by Severity [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 5 (Death). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.

  3. Part 1: Percentage of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days Cycle 1 ]
    Percentage of participants with DLT will be assessed. The DLTs are specific adverse events and are defined as any of the following: high grade non-hematologic toxicity, or hematologic toxicity.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Plasma Concentration of JNJ-75276617 [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    Plasma concentration of JNJ-75276617 will be reported.

  2. Number of Participants with Depletion of Leukemic Blasts [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    Number of participants with depletion of leukemic blasts will be reported.

  3. Number of Participants with Differentiation of Leukemic Blasts [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    Number of participants with differentiation of leukemic blasts will be reported.

  4. Changes in Expression of Menin-histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A) Target Genes [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    Changes in expression of menin-KMT2A target genes will be reported.

  5. Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) and CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh).

  6. Duration of Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    DOR will be calculated among responders from the date of initial documentation of a response to the date of first documented evidence of relapse, as defined in the disease-specific response criteria, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

  7. Time to Response (TTR) [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years and 10 months ]
    TTR is defined for the responders as the time from the date of the first dose of JNJ-75276617 to the date of the first documented response.
