ABL001 + Dasatinib + Prednisone + Blinatumomab in BCR-ABL+ B-ALL or CML

Scientific title

A Phase 1 Study of ABL001 in Combination With Dasatinib, Prednisone, and Blinatumomab in Patients With BCR-ABL Positive (BCR-ABL+) B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) and Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)

Type of study

Treatment of advanced phases

Other trial ID

18-17018-170; ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03595917

What is the purpose of the study

This is a study to evaluate asciminib (ABL001) taken in combination with dasatinib and prednisone (a steroid) as a possible treatment for B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) that is BCR-ABL positive (BCR-ABL+ B-ALL) or Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) in lymphoid blast crisis. BCR-ABL+ B-ALL is also called Philadelphia chromosome positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Ph+ ALL).

The  study assesses the safety and also tries to find the recommended dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies.

 

What will happen during the study

All patients will be given asciminib, dasatinib and prednisone orally (by mouth), and blinatumomab by intravenous infusion. The dose of asciminib given will depend on when particants join the study.

Key inclusion criteria

This study includes patients of all sexes who:

  • are aged at least 18 years
  • have cytopathologically confirmed CD19+ BCR-ABL1+ acute leukemia (B-cell ALL, mixed phenotype acute leukemia, or CML in lymphoid blast crisis with ≥ 5% lymphoblasts)

Further criteria apply. Please discuss these with your doctor or study staff.

Key exclusion criteria

This study does not include patients who:

  • For dose escalation only: Participants suitable for and willing to receive standard intensive induction chemotherapy

  • have received other chemotherapy, including antibody-based therapy, within 2 weeks of starting the study therapy with the exception of steroids, hydroxyurea, ATRA, and/or intrathecal chemotherapy
  • have a history of prior or concurrent malignancy requiring current treatment and/or whose natural history has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the treatment regimen that is being studied
