ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new medication called revumenib for patients with various types of acute leukemia, including those with specific genetic changes. The trial has two phases: the first phase will focus on finding the highest safe dose of revumenib, while the second phase will look at how well the drug works and its safety over the long and short term. The trial is currently recruiting participants who are at least 30 days old and have active acute leukemia, meaning they have a high number of leukemia cells in their blood or bone marrow.

To be eligible, participants must meet certain criteria, such as having a specific type of acute leukemia and having had previous treatments for their condition. Participants can expect to receive revumenib and will be monitored closely for any side effects. It’s important to know that this trial excludes individuals with certain health conditions, like active heart disease or other types of cancer. Overall, this study aims to provide more information about how revumenib may help patients with these challenging forms of leukemia.

Eligibility criteria

• Inclusion Criteria:
• • Participants must have active acute leukemia (bone marrow blasts ≥5% or reappearance of blasts in peripheral blood) as defined by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) in the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Version 1.2020) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (Version 3.2020), or acute leukemia harboring KMT2A rearrangement, NUP98 rearrangement, or NPM1 mutation that have detectable disease in the bone marrow.

• • Arm D: Participants receiving fluconazole (moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor).
• • Arm E: Participants not receiving any weak, moderate, or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors/inducers.
• • Arm F: Participants receiving isavuconazole (moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor) for antifungal prophylaxis.
• 2. Phase 2:
• • Documented R/R active acute leukemia (bone marrow blasts ≥5% or reappearance of blasts in peripheral blood) as defined by the NCCN Guidelines® for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Version 1.2020) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (Version 3.2020).

• • 7. Radiation Therapy: At least 60 days from prior total body irradiation (TBI), craniospinal radiation and/or ≥50% radiation of the pelvis, or at least 14 days from local palliative radiation therapy (small port).
• • 8. Stem Cell Infusion: At least 60 days must have elapsed from hematopoietic stem cell transplant and at least 4 weeks must have elapsed from donor lymphocyte infusion.
• • 9. Immunotherapy: At least 42 days since prior immunotherapy, including tumor vaccines, and at least 21 days since receipt of chimeric antigen receptor therapy or other modified T or NK cell therapy.
• • 10. Antileukemia Therapy: At least 14 days, or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, since the completion of antileukemic therapy.
• • 11. Hematopoietic Growth Factors: At least 7 days since the completion of therapy with short-acting hematopoietic growth factors and 14 days with long-acting growth factors.
• • 12. Biologics: At least 90 days, or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter, since the completion of therapy with an antineoplastic biologic agent.
• • 13. Steroids: At least 7 days since systemic glucocorticoid therapy, unless receiving physiologic dosing or cytoreductive therapy.
• • 14. Adequate organ function.
• • 15. If of childbearing potential, willing to use a highly effective method of contraception or double barrier method from the time of enrollment through 120 days following the last study drug dose.
• Exclusion Criteria:
• Participants meeting any of the following criteria are not eligible for study participation:
• • 1. Diagnosis of active acute promyelocytic leukemia.
• • 2. Isolated extramedullary relapse (Phase 2 only).
• • 3. Active central nervous system disease (cytologic, such as any blasts on cytospin, or radiographic).
• • 4. Detectable human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral load within the previous 6 months. Participants with a known history of HIV 1/2 antibodies must have viral load testing prior to study enrollment.
• • 5. Hepatitis B or C.
• • 6. Pregnant or nursing women.
• 7. Cardiac Disease:
• • Any of the following within the 6 months prior to study entry: myocardial infarction, uncontrolled/unstable angina, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association Classification Class ≥II), life-threatening, uncontrolled arrhythmia, cerebrovascular accident, or transient ischemic attack.
• • Corrected QT interval (QTc) \>450 milliseconds.
• 8. Gastrointestinal Disease:
• • any gastrointestinal issue of the upper GI tract that might affect oral drug absorption or ingestion (that is, gastric bypass, gastroparesis, etc).
• • Cirrhosis with a Child-Pugh score of B or C.
• • 9. Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GVHD): Signs or symptoms of acute or chronic GVHD \>Grade 0 within 4 weeks of enrollment. All transplant participants must have been off all systemic immunosuppressive therapy and calcineurin inhibitors for at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment. Participants may be on physiological doses of steroids.
• • 10. Concurrent malignancy in the previous 2 years with the exception of basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ (for example, breast carcinoma, cervical cancer in situ, melanoma in situ) treated with potentially curative therapy, or concurrent low-grade lymphoma, that is asymptomatic and lacks bulky disease and shows no evidence of progression, and for which the participant is not receiving any systemic therapy or radiation.
