A Study of Oral Nuvisertib (TP-3654) in Patients With Myelofibrosis

Official title

A Phase 1/2, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation, Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of Oral Nuvisertib (TP-3654) in Patients With Intermediate or High-Risk Primary or Secondary Myelofibrosis

Overview

This study is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, dose-escalation, open-label trial to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of nuvisertib (TP-3654) in patients with intermediate or high-risk primary or secondary MF.

Detailed description

Arm 1 will enroll patients who have been previously treated and failed on a JAK inhibitor or ineligible to receive treatment with a JAK inhibitor.

Arm 2 will enroll patients who are on a stable dose of ruxolitinib, but who have either lost response or had a suboptimal or plateau in response.

Arm 3 will enroll patients who have been previously treated with a JAK inhibitor (except momelotinib)

Interventions

• Drug Nusivertib
  Oral PIM Inhibitor
• Drug Ruxolitinib
  Oral JAK inhibitor
• Drug Momelotinib

Primary outcome measures

• Determine the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) [Time frame: 28 days]

• Determine the change in Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) at week 24 through end of study. [Time frame: After 24 weeks of treatment to end of study]
• Determine the incidence of QT interval changes [Time frame: 25 hours]
• Establish the half-life (t½) of nuvisertib monotherapy, in combination with ruxolitinib, and in combination with momelotinib [Time frame: 24 hours]
• Establish the Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of nuvisertib monotherapy, in combination with ruxolitinib, and in combination with momelotinib [Time frame: 24 hours]
