Overview

The purpose of the study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of AZD2962, an Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinase 4 (IRAK4) inhibitor, as monotherapy and in combination with other agents in participants with haematologic neoplasms.

Description

This is a modular study. In Module 1, the study will begin with a dose escalation of AZD2962 monotherapy in participants with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and dysplastic chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML).

Module 1 of the study will comprise of:

  1. A Screening Period of maximum 21 days.
  2. Treatment period with 28-day cycles where each patient will receive an oral dose of AZD2962 once daily, starting on Day 1, and will continue treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal.
  3. Safety Follow-up period after 30 days after last dose.

Eligibility

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Participants with relapsed/refractory MDS or participants with relapsed/refractory dysplastic CMML, with peripheral blasts or bone marrow blasts \< 20%, and who received one or more prior lines of therapy as per standard of care (or who exhausted locally available treatments including treatments for actionable mutations). Diagnosis must be histologically confirmed as per the WHO 2016 classification of myeloid neoplasms.
  2. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤2.
  3. Participants must have symptomatic disease that requires therapy and allows for objective efficacy assessments.
  4. Willing to provide baseline bone marrow aspirate (or biopsy if dry-tap).
  5. Contraceptive use by participants or participant partners should be consistent with local regulations and also comply with Clinical Study Protocol requirements.
  6. All women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result at Screening.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Prior treatment with IRAK inhibitors or inhibitors of the inflammasome pathway.
  2. Received any antineoplastic therapy (except hydroxyurea) within 15 days prior to first dose.
  3. Received any strong or moderate Cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inhibitors within 15 days prior to first dose.
  4. Received major surgery within 28 days prior to first dose, or still recovering from surgery.
  5. Received drugs that are known to prolong corrected QT interval (QTc) and with known risk of Torsades de Pointes, within 15 days prior to first dose.
  6. Received immunosuppressive medications (including Graft-Versus-Host Disease prophylaxis) within 28 days prior to first dose, or within 15 days in the case of systemic steroids (doses exceeding 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent).
  7. Received live attenuated vaccines within 28 days prior to first dose.
  8. Active major bleeding event.
  9. Any evidence of systemic disease, significant clinical disorder, or laboratory finding that make undesirable the participation in the study.

15\. Mean resting corrected QT interval using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) \> 450 ms obtained from triplicate Electrocardiograms (ECGs) and averaged, recorded within 5 minutes. In the presence of bundle branch block, QTcF \> 470 ms is applicable.

16\. History of intracranial bleeding within 6 months prior to first dose. 17. Active gastrointestinal disease or other condition that will interfere significantly with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of oral therapy.

18\. History of a prior non-haematologic neoplasm (with some exceptions). 19. Unresolved Grade \> 2 toxicities from prior anticancer therapies (with some exceptions).

20\. Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study (with some exceptions). 21. Known hypersensitivity to study intervention or its excipients.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
