A Study to Investigate LP-118, Ponatinib, Vincristine and Dexamethasone in Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) or Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (LBL)
What this study is about
The purpose of this study is to learn more about LP-118 (an experimental drug) and its side effects and decide on acceptable doses. The purpose of this study is to determine if LP-118 can be given safely with another medicine called ponatinib, that is FDA-approved for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Relapsed or refractory patients with T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-lymphoblastic lymphoma
- 18 years old or older
- Bone marrow or peripheral blood involvement with ≥5% lymphoblasts or measurable residual disease with \>10-4 level detected by multiparameter flow cytometry or next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based measurable residual disease (ClonoSEQ, Adaptive Technologies). Patients with isolated extramedullary disease that is measurable by computed tomography (CT) scan are also eligible.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-2.
- Adequate organ function as defined by all of the following:
- Creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min, determined by the Cockroft-Gault formula, or measured by a 24-hour urine collection.
- Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) and bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN (unless considered due to Gilbert's syndrome or of non-hepatic origin i.e,, leukemic involvement). For patients with Gilbert's syndrome, bilirubin ≤1.5 x of their baseline bilirubin level will be required.
- Participants must be at least 2 weeks from major surgery or radiation therapy. A wash-out period of 4 half-lives is required for patients who participated in other investigational trials. These patients must have recovered from clinically significant toxicities related to these prior treatments.
- Participants must voluntarily sign and date an informed consent, approved by an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)/Institutional Review Board (IRB), prior to the initiation of any screening or study-specific procedures.
- Females of childbearing potential will use effective contraception during protocol treatment and for at least 8 months after the last dose. Males with female partners of reproductive potential will use effective contraception during protocol treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose. A patient is of childbearing potential if, in the opinion of the treating investigator, he/she is biologically capable of having children and is sexually active. Female patients who are not of childbearing potential (ie, meet at least one of the following criteria): a. Have undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or have medically confirmed ovarian failure; or are medically confirmed to be post-menopausal (cessation of regular menses for at least 12 consecutive months with no alternative pathological or physiological cause).
- Participants who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
Exclusion criteria
- Active central nervous system (CNS) leukemia
- Active or chronic hepatitis B or C infection as evidenced by hepatitis B surface antigen and anti-hepatitis C antibody positivity, respectively, or known seropositivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Patients with HIV but an undetectable viral load are eligible for enrollment.
- Major surgery within \<2 weeks before randomization.
- Unstable or severe uncontrolled medical condition (eg, unstable cardiac function or unstable pulmonary condition.
- Concurrent active malignancy other than non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or localized prostate cancer that has been definitely treated with radiation or surgery. Patients with previous malignancies are eligible provided that they have been disease free for ≥2 years or are not currently requiring treatment.
- Uncontrolled cardiac disease.
- Pregnant females; breastfeeding females; males with female partners of reproductive potential and females of childbearing potential not using highly effective contraception or not agreeing to continue highly effective contraception for a minimum of 5 months after the last dose of investigational product if male and 8 months after the last dose of investigational product if female.
- Participation in other investigational studies during active treatment phase.
- Other severe acute, chronic medical, psychiatric condition, or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the treating physician, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
