Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of pevonedistat administered as a single agent and in combination with azacitidine in adult east Asian participants with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute Myelodysplastic Syndromes Drug: Pevonedistat 25 mg/m^2 Drug: Pevonedistat 44 mg/m^2 Drug: Pevonedistat 10 mg/m^2 Drug: Pevonedistat 20 mg/m^2 Drug: Azacitidine 75 mg/m^2 Phase 1

Detailed Description:

The drug being tested in this study is called Pevonedistat. Pevonedistat is being tested to treat people with myelodysplastic syndromes MDS (including nonproliferative chronic myelomonocytic leukemia [CMML]) and AML (acute myeloid leukaemia) as a single-agent and in combination treatment with azacitidine. This study will look at the safety and tolerability, the recommended phase 2/phase 3 dose of pevonedistat administered in combination with azacitidine, pharmacokinetics and response to treatment in participants who take single agent pevonedistat compared to participants who take pevonedistat and azacitidine.

The study will enroll approximately 37 participants. Participants will be assigned into one of the four treatment groups which will remain disclosed to the patient and study doctor during the study. Participants will be first enrolled at single-agent low dose level (25 mg/m^2). If this dose is tolerable, participants will be enrolled in parallel at single-agent higher dose level (44 mg/m^2) and in combination treatment cohorts.

  • Pevonedistat 25 mg/m^2
  • Pevonedistat 44 mg/m^2
  • Pevonedistat 10 mg/m^2 and azacitidine 75 mg/m^2 combination
  • Pevonedistat 20 mg/m^2 and azacitidine 75 mg/m^2 combination Participants will receive pevonedistat infusion intravenously and azacitidine via intravenous or subcutaneous route.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. The overall time to participate in this study is approximately 24 months. Participants will attend the End of Study (EOS) visit for safety, 30 days after receiving their last dose of study drug or before the start of subsequent antineoplastic therapy (other than hydroxyurea).

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. • Number of Participants Reporting one or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Throughout study from Baseline up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug ]
  2. Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) During Cycle [ Time Frame: Cycle 1 Day 1 up to end of Cycle 1 (Day 21 for single-agent groups and Day 28 for combination groups) ]
    Toxicity will be evaluated according to NCI CTCAE, Version4.03. DLT will be defined as any of the events specified in the protocol that are considered by the investigator to be at least possibly related to therapy with study medications.

  3. Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Laboratory Values [ Time Frame: Baseline and up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug ]
  4. Cmax: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration for Pevonedistat [ Time Frame: Day 1: Pre-infusion and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-infusion ]
  5. AUC(0-tau): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Time tau Over the Dosing Interval for Pevonedistat [ Time Frame: Day 1: Pre-infusion and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-infusion ]
  6. CL: Clearance [ Time Frame: Days 1 and 5: Day 1: Pre-infusion and at multiple time points (up to 48 hours) post-infusion ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With Overall Response [ Time Frame: Screening until CR or PR, assessed within 6 days before Day 21 for single-agent groups and Day 20 to 28 for combination groups of Cycle 2, 4 and every 3 cycles thereafter up to Day 35 for single-agent groups and Day 39 for combination groups ]
  2. Percentage of Participants With CR [ Time Frame: Screening until CR or PR, assessed within 6 days before Day 21 for single-agent groups and Day 20 to 28 for combination groups of Cycle 2, 4 and every 3 cycles thereafter up to Day 35 for single-agent groups and Day 39 for combination groups ]
