Study Design and Methods: NIMBLE (drug deNdrIMer targeting BCL2/xL in acute LEukemias) is a modular, non-randomized phase I/II dose escalation and expansion study. Module 1 will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of AZD0466 as monotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory AML or ALL. Patients are eligible if ≥ 18 years of age with any subtypes of relapsed/refractory AML or ALL without active CNS involvement and after at least one prior line of therapy. Treatment with hydroxyurea during screening and cycle 1 is permitted to control white blood cell count. Patients with extramedullary disease are also eligible. Primary endpoints are safety and tolerability of AZD0466 in patients with acute leukemia. In dose escalation, patients will be treated in each dose level according to an mTPI-2 design. Secondary endpoints are to determine pharmacokinetic parameters for total and released AZD4320. Exploratory endpoints include association of pharmacodynamic effects including changes to peripheral blasts and cleaved caspase activation, and initial evaluation of efficacy in relation to baseline leukemia characteristics. Planned dose expansion cohorts are AML patients with a prior history of MPN with ≤ 2 prior lines of therapy, AML patients with TP53 mutation treated with ≤ 3 prior lines of therapy, other AML treated with ≤ 3 prior lines (including venetoclax), and B- or T-ALL treated with ≤ 3 prior lines. Module 2 is a drug-drug interaction (DDI) study that will investigate the safety and establish the sensitivity of AZD0466 to voriconazole, a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4. There are no additional inclusion or exclusion criteria specific to Module 2. Further modules will be added via protocol amendment to investigate AZD0466 in combination with other antileukemia treatments, and may be triggered at the planned interim analyses during expansion.
AZD0466 will be administered with a dose ramp-up in cycle 1 from a starting dose on day 1, with subsequent titration to an intermediate dose on day 4, and target dose on day 8, with weekly 1-hour IV administration thereafter at the target dose. The duration of cycle 1 is 35 days, and subsequent cycles are 28 days in which AZD0466 will be administered once weekly. Patients will continue until treatment failure, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.
This study is actively enrolling patients at sites in the USA, and will be opening at multiple sites in Australia, Europe and South Korea. An update of preliminary safety and pharmacokinetics will be presented.
