About this trial
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment of cedazuridine-decitabine (ASTX727) to the combination treatment of ASTX727 and enasidenib in treating patients with higher-risk, IDH2-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs, decitabine and cedazuridine. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Enasidenib is an enzyme inhibitor that may stop the growth of cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving ASTX727 in combination with enasidenib may be effective in treating patients with higher-risk IDH2-mutated MDS.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Complete response (CR) rate
Will be assessed using the International Working Group 2023 (IWG2023) criteria. Will compare the CR rate between the two treatment arms to determine if patients treated with enasidenib + ASTX727 have a statistically significantly higher CR rate than patients treated with the ASTX727 monotherapy.
Secondary outcomes
Event-free survival (EFS)
Sensitivity analyses will be conducted. Will use the methods of Kaplan-Meier as well as Cox regression models.
Overall survival (OS)
Will use the methods of Kaplan-Meier as well as Cox regression models.
Time to response
Will be assessed only among patients who achieve a response (CR, CRL, or CRh). Will utilize the methods of Kaplan-Meier as well as Cox regression models.
Duration of response
Will be assessed only among patients who achieve a response (CR, CRL, or CRh). Will use the methods of Kaplan-Meier as well as Cox regression models.
