Brief Summary:

The primary objective is to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), or pharmacological active dose (PAD) of BAY2402234 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML).

The secondary objective is to evaluate evidence of clinical efficacy associated with BAY2402234 in patients with AML (defined as Complete remission, Complete remission with partial hematologic recovery), and MDS (defined as hematological improvement).

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Dose Escalation
Dose escalation with sequential cohorts enrolling patients with AML, MDS, or CMML. Patients will be treated in 28-day cycles with once daily oral administration of BAY2402234
 Drug: BAY2402234
BAY2402234 is a potent and selective small molecule inhibitor of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase. A solution of BAY2402234 will be available to initiate the trial and there are plans to transition to a tablet form of BAY2402234 once it becomes available. Both liquid and tablet formulations of BAY2402234 will be continually administered once daily by mouth in 28 day cycles.
Experimental: Dose Expansion: AML
After completion of dose escalation, an expansion cohort comprised of patients with AML will start. These patients will be treated in 28 day cycles with once daily oral administration of BAY2402234 at the maximum tolerated dose or pharmacologically active dose.

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. Maximum tolerated dose [ Time Frame: Up to 42 days after the first dose ]
    Phase 1 dose escalation study with increasing doses of study drug (BAY2402234). Maximum tolerated dose will be defined as the maximum dose administered during Cycle 1 at which the incidence of dose limiting toxicities is closest to 30%.

  2. Number of Adverse Events as a measure of safety and tolerability [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months on average ]
  3. AUC (0-24) (Area under the curve) [ Time Frame: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 hours after dose administration at Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 15 ]
  4. Cmax (Maximum concentration) [ Time Frame: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 hours after dose administration at Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 15 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Composite endpoint: Number of AML patients with complete remission (CR) and complete response with partial recovery of peripheral blood counts (CRh) [ Time Frame: Up to 6 months on average ]
    Response criteria according to modified IWG 2003. CRh is defined as <5% of blasts in the bone marrow, no evidence of disease, and partial recovery of peripheral blood counts (platelets >50,000/microliter and ANC >500/microliter)

  2. Change in erythroid response as Histological Improvement criteria for patients with MDS and CMML [ Time Frame: Every month until disease progression or patient is withdrawn from study, up to 6 months on average ]
    Response criteria according to IWG 2006.

  3. Change in platelet response as Histological Improvement criteria for patients with MDS and CMML [ Time Frame: Every month until disease progression or patient is withdrawn from study, up to 6 months on average ]
    Response criteria according to IWG 2006.

  4. Change in neutrophil response as Histological Improvement criteria for patients with MDS and CMML [ Time Frame: Every month until disease progression or patient is withdrawn from study, up to 6 months on average ]
    Response criteria according to IWG 2006.

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with relapsed or refractory AML. Relapsed AML is defined as relapse after achieving a response to initial therapy and refractory AML is defined as failure to achieve a response after one previous line of therapy. Response is defined as per IWG criteria (CR, CRi or CRp). Patients who are not candidates to receive or who decline standard of care therapy are also eligible.
  • Patients with intermediate-1 or higher risk MDS who have failed therapy with a hypomethylating agent, or have failed lenalidomide therapy if harboring a 5q-chromosomal deletion.
  • Patients with relapsed/refractory CMML.
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 40 mL per 1.73 m*2
  • Patients must have adequate coagulation (international normalized ratio [INR] ≤ 1.5; activated partial thromboplastin time [aPTT] ≤1.5 X the upper limit of normal [ULN]; patients on chronic anticoagulation therapy at investigator's discretion; patients on chronic use of direct-acting oral anticoagulants who have acceptable benefit-risk ratio at investigator's discretion)
  • Adequate liver function (total bilirubin ≤1.5 X ULN (or ≤3 X ULN in patients with documented Gilbert's syndrome or for patients with hyperbilirubinemia considered due to myeloid disease), alanine aminotransferase [ALT] and aspartate aminotransferase [AST] ≤3 X ULN (or ≤5 X ULN for patients with liver involvement of their myeloid disease)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients eligible for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
  • Clinical symptoms suggesting active central nervous system (CNS) leukemia or known CNS leukemia
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
  • Chronic or active hepatitis B or C if not controlled by antiviral therapy
