A Study of Siremadlin in Combination With Venetoclax Plus Azacitidine in Adult Participants With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Who Are Ineligible for Chemotherapy.

Status: administratively complete

A study of siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine in adult participants with AML who are ineligible for chemotherapy. The primary purpose of this study was to assess whether siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine can enhance the clinical response in unfit AML patients without unacceptable levels of treatment-emergent toxicities.

Inclusion Criteria

Age at the date of signing the informed consent form (ICF): Arm 1 and Arm 2: ≥ 18 years
Participants diagnosed with AML based on WHO 2016 classification (Arber et al 2016) who are ineligible for standard induction chemotherapy and: Arm 1 : have received at least 2 cycles and not more than 4 cycles of first-line venetoclax plus azacitidine treatment and have not achieved a CR, CRi, CRh or MLFS. Arm 2 : newly diagnosed AML with adverse genetic risk stratification (according to ELN 2022) (except TP53 mutation positive participants).
Participant (in both arms) must be considered ineligible for standard of care intensive induction chemotherapy defined by the following:
75 years of age; OR
18 to 74 years of age with at least one of the following co-morbidities: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 2 or 3; Cardiac history of congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring treatment or Ejection Fraction ≤ 50% or chronic stable angina; DLCO ≤ 65% or FEV1 ≤ 65%.
Participants must have an ECOG performance status: 0 to 2 for participants ≥ 75 years of age. OR 0 to 3 for participants ≥ 18 to 74 years of age.
WBC < 25x109/L
AST and ALT ≤ 3 × ULN
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2

Exclusion Criteria

Prior exposure to MDM2-inhibitor therapy at any time.
Participants with TP53 mutation positive.
Participants with del17p.
Participants with AML-M3 / APL (Acute promyelocytic leukemia) with PML-RARA (Promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor alpha) or with AML secondary to Down's syndrome.
Participants treated with FLT3 inhibitors for AML indication are not eligible.
Participants who require treatment with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducers within 14 days prior to starting study treatment, or are expected to receive moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducers during the entire study
Participants who require treatment with substrates of CYP3A4/5 with a narrow therapeutic index. Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply at the end

The recommended dose of siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine will

be determined to be explored further in the expansion phase and the preliminary efficacy

in achieving Complete Remission (CR) will be evaluated in participants who responded

sub-optimally to first-line venetoclax plus azacitidine treatment.

The study was planned to be conducted in two parts. The primary purpose of Part 1 (Safety

Run- in) was to rule out excessive toxicity of siremadlin when administered in

combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine while the primary purpose of Part 2

(Expansion) was to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of siremadlin when combined with

venetoclax plus azacitidine in the respective patient population.

The study treatment (siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine) is

administered in cycles with a planned duration of 28 days and will continue until the

participants experience disease progression/relapse or unacceptable toxicity.

The initial enrollment plan and safety review was as follow:

- In the Safety run-in part, 9-15 participants were planned to be enrolled in each

arm. Approximately 3-6 participants were planned to be enrolled at the starting dose

level of siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine in both arms

independently. Provided the starting dose level is determined to be safe,

approximately 6-9 additional participants were planned to be enrolled at dose level

+1. Safety review meetings were planned to take place involving participating

investigators and the Sponsor Team to make decisions regarding siremadlin dose and

determine the recommended dose for expansion.

- Approximately 26 patients were planned to be treated at the recommended dose in the

expansion part.

In the safety run-(Part 1) 27 sites were open for recruitment with 28 patients screened

and 14 patients enrolled.

After enrolling 14 patients (6 patients in Arm 1 and 8 patients in Arm 2), Novartis took

the decision to put the enrollment in permanent halt and terminate the siremadlin

program. For that reason, the enrollment in Part 2 (expansion phase) will not be open.

The Novartis decision was not driven by any safety concerns.
