ENHANCE-2: This phase III trial is comparing the effectiveness of three different treatments in people with previously untreated, TP53 mutant, acute myeloid leukaemia: a new targeted therapy (magrolimab) combined with a hypomethylating agent which reduces the number of abnormal blood cells (azacitidine); a different targeted therapy (venetoclax) combined with the hypomethylating agent (azacitidine); and an intensive chemotherapy regimen (including cytarabine, and daunorubicin or idarubicin)A Phase 3, Randomized, Open-Label Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Magrolimab in Combination With Azacitidine Versus Physician's Choice of Venetoclax in Combination With Azacitidine or Intensive Chemotherapy in Previously Untreated Patients With TP53 Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Clinical summary

Summary

This is a randomised, open-label trial with one Experimental Arm and two Active Comparator Arms. In the Experimental Arm, participants will receive an escalating dose of magrolimab (administered intravenously [via IV]) and a fixed dose of azacitidine (administered either via an injection or via IV, 75mg/m^2 on Days 1-7 or Days 1-5,8 and 9 during every cycle). The first Active Comparator Arm will consist of participants who are appropriate for non-invasive therapy. They will receive an escalating dose of venetoclax (administered orally, 100mg on Day 1, 200mg on Day 2, 400mg on Days 3-28 during Cycle 1, followed by 400mg on Days 1-28 during every cycle thereafter), and a fixed dose of azacitidine (administered the same as in the Experimental Arm). The second Active Comparator Arm will consist of participants who are appropriate for intensive therapy. They will receive 7+3 chemotherapy: 7 day treatment with cytarabine and a 3 day treatment with daunorubicin or idarubicin during induction and high-dose cytarabine and steroidal eye drops during consolidation. Cytarabine will be administered (during induction) as a continuous infusion, 100 or 200mg/m^2 on Days 1-7 (7+3 induction) and if needed Days 1-5 (5+2 induction) during a cycle. Cytarabine will be administered (during consolidation) via IV, 3000mg/m^2 on Days 1, 3 and 5 once every 12 hours for up to 4 cycles. Daunorubicin will be administered via IV peripherally, 60mg/m^2 on Days 1-3 (7+3 induction) and if needed Days 1-2 (5+2 induction) during a cycle. Idarubicin will be administered via IV, 12mg/m^2 on Days 1-3 (7+3 induction) and if needed Days 1-2 (5+2 induction) during a cycle.

Eligibility

Inclusion

  • Individuals with confirmation of AML by World Health Organization criteria, previously untreated for AML, and who have presence of at least 1 TP53 gene mutation that is not benign or likely benign based on evaluation by either central laboratory or an approved local laboratory (after central review of the bone marrow TP53 mitigation next-generation sequencing test results) (individuals with biallelic 17p deletions, loss of both 17p alleles, are eligible based on locally evaluated cytogenetics/karyotype/fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) report)
  • Individuals with white blood cell (WBC) count ≤ 20×10^3/microliter (μL) prior to randomization. If the individual's WBC is > 20×10^3/μL prior to randomization, the individual can be enrolled, assuming all other eligibility criteria are met. However, the WBC should be ≤ 20×10^3/μL prior to the first dose of study treatment and prior to each magrolimab dose the first 4 weeks (if the individual is randomized to the experimental arm) Note: Individuals can be treated with hydroxyurea and/or leukapheresis throughout the study or prior to randomization to reduce the WBC to ≤ 20×10^3/μL to enable eligibility for study drug dosing.
  • The hemoglobin must be ≥ 9 grams per deciliter (g/dL) prior to initial dose of study treatment Notes:Transfusions are allowed to meet hemoglobin eligibility
  • Individual has provided informed consent
  • Individual is willing and able to comply with clinic visits and procedure outlined in the study protocol
  • Individuals must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2, except for individuals less than 75 years of age and appropriate for non-intensive treatment. For these individuals, the ECOG performance status score may be 0 to 3
  • Individuals must have adequate renal function as demonstrated by a creatinine clearance ≥ 30 milliliters per minute calculated by the Cockcroft Gault formula
  • Adequate cardiac function as demonstrated by:
  • Lack of symptomatic congestive heart failure and clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias and ischemic heart disease
  • LVEF > 50% for individuals appropriate for intensive therapy
  • Adequate liver function as demonstrated by:
  • Aspartate aminotransferase ≤ 3.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Alanine aminotransferase ≤ 3.0 × ULN
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, or primary unconjugated bilirubin ≤ 3.0 × ULN if individual has a documented history of Gilbert's syndrome or genetic equivalent
  • Pretreatment blood cross-match completed

  • Individuals must be willing to consent to mandatory pretreatment and ontreatment bone marrow biopsies (aspirate and trephines).
