Tagraxofusp Maintenance Therapy to Prevent Relapse in Patients with CD 123+ Myelofibrosis, Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia, Myelodysplastic Syndrome, or Acute Myeloid Leukemia who have Undergone a Stem Cell Transplant
This phase I trial tests tagraxofusp for maintenance therapy in treating patients with myelofibrosis, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or acute myeloid leukemia that express CD123 (a marker that may be present on cancer cells) who have undergone an allogenic stem cell transplant. An allogeneic or donor transplant is a type of stem cell transplant where the cancer patient receives cells from another person. Maintenance therapy is given after stem cell transplant to prevent the cancer from coming back. Tagraxofusp is a drug that targets cells that have CD123 on their surface in order to kill the cancer cells to help prevent the cancer from coming back (relapse).

- Receipt of first allogeneic stem cell transplant (related, unrelated, haploidentical or cord blood) 60-120 days prior to study registration
- Patient is in morphologic remission according to bone marrow biopsy completed within 30 days prior to planned start of study treatment
- Provision of signed and dated informed consent form

- For females and males of reproductive potential: agreement to use adequate contraception for at least one month prior to screening, during and following participation
- For males of reproductive potential: use of condoms or other methods to ensure effective contraception with partner during and following participation
- Agreement to adhere to lifestyle considerations throughout study duration
Exclusion Criteria
- Treatment with any disease-related therapy, including radiation therapy or investigational agent, within 14 days of study entry
- Previous treatment with tagraxofusp or known hypersensitivity to any components of the drug product
- Active malignancy and/or cancer history (excluding myeloproliferative disorders and concomitant myeloid malignancies as specified in the inclusion criteria) that can confound the assessment of the study endpoints. Patients with a past cancer history (within 2 years of entry) and/or ongoing active malignancy or substantial potential for recurrence must be discussed with the sponsor before study entry. Patients with the following neoplastic diagnoses are eligible: non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ (including superficial bladder cancer), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, or organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of progressive disease

- Overall >= grade 2 acute GVHD per Magic criteria at time of registration
- Pregnant or breast feeding
- Requirement of supplemental oxygen
- Clinically significant cardiovascular disease (e.g., uncontrolled or any New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4 congestive heart failure, uncontrolled angina, history of myocardial infarction or stroke within 6 months of study entry, uncontrolled hypertension or clinically significant arrhythmias not controlled by medication)
- Uncontrolled, clinically significant pulmonary disease (e.g., chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary hypertension) that in the opinion of the Investigator would put the patient at significant risk for pulmonary complications during the study
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, uncontrolled infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
- Known positive status for human immunodeficiency virus or active or chronic hepatitis B or hepatitis C
- Receiving treatment for known or suspected fungal infection (prophylaxis is acceptable)
- Known positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2) test within 3 weeks of study entry. Exception: Tests that reflect past, resolved infection where the patient is determined to not be infectious, according to an infectious disease specialist, do not exclude the patient from participation
- Pedal edema >= grade 2

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the safety of tagraxofusp-erzs (tagraxofusp) in patients with CD123+ myelofibrosis (MF), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic (allo) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and treatment tolerance during cycles 1-4.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To estimate overall survival at 1 and 2 years post-HCT.
II. To estimate disease-free survival at 1 and 2 years post-HCT.
III. To estimate cumulative incidence of relapse at 1 and 2 years post-HCT.
IV. To estimate frequency and severity of acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To estimate changes/patterns in patient-reported quality of life outcomes at multiple time points before, during and after the study intervention.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Patients receive tagraxofusp intravenously (IV) over 15 minutes on days 1-3 of cycles 1-4 and days 1-2 of subsequent cycles.Treatment repeats every 28 days for 9 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 9 cycles, patients deriving benefit from treatment may continue treatment for up to 2 years after HCT at the discretion of the treating physician. Patients undergo echocardiography (ECHO) or multigated acquisition scan (MUGA) during screening. Patients also undergo bone marrow biopsy throughout the trial.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 3 months for up to 2 years following HCT.
