About This Malignant Solid Tumors Study in Houston

This is an open label, phase 2 study investigating asciminib in patients previously treated with one line of TKI therapy.

Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Who Can Participate

Inclusion Criteria

Age ≥ 18 years.
Diagnosis of Ph-positive (by cytogenetics or FISH) or BCR-ABL-positive (by PCR) CML in chronic phase and have received one prior line of therapy with a TKI.
History of treatment failure defined as either:
BCR::ABL1 \>0.1% for patients with intolerance to first-line TKI
Less than complete hematologic response (CHR) at ≥3 months
No partial cytogenetic response at ≥3 months
BCR::ABL1 ≥ 10% at if 3-6 months
BCR::ABL1 ≥ 1% at ≥6 months
Loss of CCyR or development of mutations or other clonal chromosomal abnormalities at any time during TKI treatment
ECOG performance status ≤ 2.
Adequate end organ function within 12 days before the first dose of asciminib treatment. Patients with mild to moderate renal and hepatic impairment are eligible if:
Total bilirubin ≤ 3.0 x ULN without AST/ALT increase
Aspartate transaminase (AST) ≤ 5.0 x ULN
Alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 5.0 x ULN
Serum lipase ≤ 1.5 x ULN. For serum lipase \> ULN and ≤ 1.5 x ULN, value should be considered not clinically significant and not associated with risk factors for acute pancreatitis
Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN
Creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min as calculated using Cockcroft-Gault formula
The effects of Asciminib on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Women of child-bearing potential must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception during dosing and for 30 days after study treatment. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Allowable methods of birth control:
Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject). Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
Female sterilization (have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy, or tubal ligation at least six weeks before the start of study treatment. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment.
Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening). The vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that subject.
Use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS), or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate \<1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception.
Sexually active males must use a condom during intercourse while taking the drug and for 30 days after stopping treatment and should not father a child in this period. A condom is required to be used also by vasectomized men in order to prevent delivery of the drug via seminal fluid.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients with a history of T315I mutation.
Patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV congestive heart failure or LVEF \< 40% by echocardiogram or multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan.
Patients with a history of myocardial infarction within the last 6 months or unstable/uncontrolled angina pectoris or history of severe and/or uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias. Clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., ventricular tachycardia), complete left bundle branch block, high-grade AV block (e.g., bifascicular block, Mobitz type II and third-degree AV block).
Corrected QT interval (QTc) of \> 450 milliseconds (ms) on baseline electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) (using the Fridericia Formula)
Long QT syndrome, family history of idiopathic sudden death or congenital long QT syndrome, or any of the following:
Risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP) including uncorrected hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia, history of cardiac failure, or history of clinically significant/symptomatic bradycardia.
Concomitant medication(s) with a known risk to prolong the QT interval and/or known to cause Torsades de Pointes that cannot be discontinued or replaced 7 days prior to starting study drug by safe alternative medication.
Patients with known active infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Hepatitis B or C.
Patients with known conditions that would significantly affect the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered orally.
Nursing women, women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) with positive blood or urine pregnancy test, or women of childbearing potential who are not willing to maintain adequate contraception (see inclusion criteria 8)
History of acute pancreatitis within 1 year of study entry or past medical history of chronic pancreatitis.
ANC \< 500/mm3, platelet count \< 50,000 mm3.
History of other active malignancy within 2 years prior to study entry except for previous or concomitant basal cell skin cancer and previous carcinoma in situ treated curatively.
Subject has any other significant medical or psychiatric history that in the opinion of the investigator would adversely affect participation in this study. Patients should have discontinued therapy with imatinib, bosutinib, dasatinib or nilotinib or other anti-leukemia therapy (except hydroxyurea), at least 48 hours prior to start of study therapy and recovered from any toxicity due to these therapies to at least grade 1. The use of hydroxyurea is allowed immediately prior to study entry.
