This study is recruiting people with relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Neoplasms (MPN) to assess the effective dose, safety and tolerability of a new medicine called JNJ-90189892A Phase 1, First-in-Human, Dose Escalation Study of JNJ-90189892 for Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Neoplasms

Clinical summary

Summary

You may be eligible for this study if you have relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) or R/R higher-risk type of myelodysplastic neoplasms (a type of cancer of the blood and bone marrow, which does not respond to treatment or comes back after treatment). 

This study has two parts. The purpose of Part 1 (Dose Escalation) is to assess the effective dose (recommended Phase 2 dose[s] [RP2D]) that can be safely administered, and dosing regimens of JNJ-90189892. In this part, participants will recieve JNJ-90189892 and the dose levels will be escalated sequentially based on the decisions of the safety evaluation team until the RP2D has been identified.

The purpose of Part 2 (Cohort Expansion) is to further assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of JNJ-90189892 in participants with R/R AML or high-risk types of MDS. Participants in Part 2 will receive JNJ-90189892 at the RP2D determined in Part 1.
