Clinical summary

Summary

AZD4512 is an antibody-drug conjugate that binds to the CD22 protein on cancer cells and delivers targeted treatment to destroy these cells. 

The study has two parts: Module 1 - Dose Escalation and Module 2 - Dose Optimisation.

Module 1 will evaluate escalating doses of AZD4512 as monotherapy (by itself) to determine the maximum tolerated dose(s) to be further evaluated in Module 2. AZD4512 is given as an intravenous (IV) infusion. This part will enrol people with relapsed or refractory Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) and negative (Ph-) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL).

Module 2 will allocate people with relapsed or refractory Ph- B-ALL randomly (by chance) to receive 2-3 dose levels of AZD4512 identified in Module 1 for further exploration of its efficacy and safety.

Conditions

This trial is treating people with CD22 positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Eligibility

Inclusion

  • 1. Age:

    • 16 years old in Module 1
    • 12 years old in Module 2

      2. Diagnosis: Known Diagnosis of CD22-positive B-ALL based on criteria established by WHO (Alaggio et al. 2022).

  • Participants must have relapsed or refractory B-ALL ('relapsed' defined as bone marrow blasts > 5% or reappearance of blasts in PB)
  • Module 1 (DE): Ph(-) B-ALL and Ph(+) B-ALL - R/R
  • Backfill of Module 1 and Module 2 (DO): R/R Ph(-) B-ALL (BM blasts >5%)

    3. Performance status (ECOG ≤ 2; KPS ≥ 50; LPS ≥ 50)

    4. Peripheral lymphoblast count < 10,000/µL (may receive cytoreduction prior to C1D1 per protocol-specified criteria)

    5. At least 2 prior therapies with refractoriness or relapse, or 1 prior therapy with refractoriness or relapse and no standard options available. Participants who have received prior CD22 targeted therapies are eligible.

  • Ph+ B-ALL (Module 1 DE only): intolerant to or have contraindications to TKI therapy or R/R disease despite treatment with at least 2 prior TKIs or at least one 3rd generation TKI

    6. Prior DLI >4 weeks, prior cell therapy or autoHSCT >8 weeks, alloHSCT >12 weeks

Exclusion

  1. Burkitt lymphoma and leukemia
  2. Isolated extramedullary disease; Active testicular or CNS (> CNS1) involvement
  3. Unresolved non-heme toxicities Grade ≥ 2 (except alopecia, stable Grade ≤ 2 neuropathy, vitiligo, endocrine disorders controlled with therapy)
  4. History of drug-induced non-infectious ILD/pneumonitis requiring oral or IV steroids or supplemental oxygen or where suspected ILD/pneumonitis cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening
  5. Prior/concomitant therapy

    • Cytotoxic treatment within 14 days (except ALL maintenance medications or cytoreduction)
    • Biologic (immuno-oncology) treatment within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter)
    • Non-CNS radiation within 2 weeks & CNS radiation within 4 weeks
    • Medications known to prolong QTc and/or associated with Torsades de Pointes within 21 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer)
    • Strong inhibitors of CYP 3A4 within 21 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer)
    • Investigational agents or study interventions in the last 30 days or 5 half-lives prior to the first dose of AZD4512 whichever is longer. If the investigational product is an agent to treat B-ALL and meets the modality criteria, then a specific washout period must be adhered to instead.

Inclusion

  • You have had treatment, but your cancer has come back (relapsed or recurrent).
  • You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.

Exclusion

  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
Message
