Detailed Description
This is a phase Ib/II, open label, multi-center study of sabatolimab as monotherapy and in combination with azacitidine, in participants with AML/secondary AML who have received one aHSCT and achieved complete remission but MRD+, by local assessment, anytime between day 100 and day 365 post-aHSCT and at least 2 weeks after immunosuppressive medications have been tapered off.
The study will enroll approximately 59 participants and will be conducted in two parts:
Part 1 is a Safety Run-in of approximately 20 participants, to assess whether sabatolimab as monotherapy at the two tested dose levels (400 mg and 800 mg intravenously Q4W) is safe when administered in the post-aHSCT setting. For each dose level, once the required number of evaluable participants has been confirmed, enrollment will be halted until participants have completed the DLT observation period (≥ 8 weeks following the first dose). Following the observation period for DLTs, a Safety Review Meeting will be conducted after each dose level to assess safety and determine the recommended dose for expansion to proceed with enrollment of additional cohorts in Part 2 of the study.
Part 2 consists of sabatolimab monotherapy expansion cohort of approximately 13 participants, sabatolimab in combination with azacitidine cohort of approximately 20 participants, and an adolescent cohort of approximately 6 participants (≥ 12 years but < 18 years of age) with sabatolimab as monotherapy. Sabatolimab will be administered at the recommended dose for expansion determined in Part 1.
