Danvatirsen

Danvatirsen (AZD9150) is a selective, high-affinity, antisense oligonucleotide inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (or STAT3).

Danvatirsen (AZD9150) is a selective, high-affinity, antisense oligonucleotide inhibitor of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (or STAT3). Venetoclax: Commercially available. Venetoclax is a potent, selective small molecule inhibitor of BCL-2, an anti-apoptotic protein found on some types of cancer cells.

This is a Phase 1 study investigating the safety and efficacy of Danvatirsen as a monotherapy followed by combination with Venetoclax in patients with intermediate/high/very high myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) as determined by revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have relapsed or are refractory to frontline therapy.

• Subjects must be at least 18 years of age at the time of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF); must voluntarily sign an ICF; and be able to meet all study requirements
• Morphologically confirmed diagnosis of AML or MDS in accordance with World Health Organization (WHO) diagnostic criteria
• Subjects with relapsed/refractory AML who are refractory or relapsed to all conventional therapy and do not have any FDA approved or standard therapeutic options & subjects with intermediated/high/very high IPSS-R MDS who are refractory or relapsed to at least 2 cycles of hypomethylating agent based therapy (azacitidine / decitabine based) OR patients with rapid progression of disease regardless of number of cycles of therapy
• At least 3 months from Allogenic stem cell transplantation and no clinical sign of active graft vs host disease (GVHD)
• WBC must be <25,000 cells/uL and may be reduced with hydroxyurea to reach this goal prior to study start. Hydroxyurea can be administered on trial with an increase in WBC counts at the discretion of the PI
• A bone marrow biopsy must be performed within the screening window (day-28-day-1) and tissue collected for correlative analysis for entrance to this trial. Correlative sample collection is essential on this study
