About this trial
This study evaluates the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of BP1002 (Liposomal Bcl-2 Antisense Oligodeoxynucleotide) in patients with refractory/relapsed AML. The study is designed to assess the safety profile, identify DLTs, biologically effective doses, PK, PD and potential anti-leukemic effects of BP1002 as single agent (dose escalation phase) followed by assessing BP1002 in combination with decitabine (dose expansion phase).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adults ≥18 years of age, with histologic evidence of refractory/relapsed AML who have failed treatment with available therapies known to be active for refractory/relapsed AML
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status Score of 0, 1 or 2
For the dose expansion phase, participants with documented diagnosis of AML who are eligible for decitabine therapy
Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); and
Disqualifiers
Active non-hematologic or lymphoid malignancy other than AML treated with immunotherapy, targeted therapy or chemotherapy within the previous 12 months
Known, active leptomeningeal leukemia requiring intrathecal therapy. NOTE: Participants with a history of CNS disease may be allowed to participate based on at least 1 documented, negative spinal fluid assessment within 28 days prior to Screening
Isolated potentially treatable extramedullary leukemia without also meeting bone marrow criteria for acute leukemia (for AML usually ≥ 5% blasts in BMA or biopsy). Participants may have leukemia with lower blast counts (Döhner 2017). Bio-Path Holdings and Investigator concurrence required.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t(15;17)(q22;q12) PML-RARA
