Objectives
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral decitabine combined with ivosidenib in treatment-naïve patients with acute myeloid leukemia harboring an IDH1 mutation. This population includes adults aged 60 years or older, as well as patients of any age with comorbidities precluding intensive induction chemotherapy. Efficacy is specifically measured by the rate of complete remission or complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery. Secondary objectives include:
- Comparison of overall survival and event-free survival against a matched historical control cohort.
- Assessment of the composite complete remission rate following 2, 3, and 6 treatment cycles.
- Evaluation of the cumulative incidence of relapse.
- Analysis of minimal residual disease in the bone marrow via multiparametric flow cytometry and next-generation sequencing to determine the quality of remission, including exploratory clonal suppression via single-cell analyses.
- Monitoring of hematologic and non-hematologic toxicity, as well as early mortality within the first 60 days.
- Measurement of quality of life and global health status using patient-reported outcomes, specifically the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L instruments.
- Evaluation of medical resource utilization, such as hospitalization duration and transfusion requirements.
Participants
The sponsor did not provide the total number of participants. The study population consists of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) harboring an IDH1 mutation. Eligible individuals include those aged 60 years or older, or those aged 18 to 59 years with comorbidities that preclude an intensive therapeutic approach. Participants must meet WHO criteria for a morphological diagnosis of AML. Requirements include an ECOG performance status between 0 and 2 for individuals aged 60 and older, or between 0 and 3 for those aged 18 to 60. Specific clinical parameters include a white blood cell count of less than 30 × 10⁹/L and adequate renal function, defined by a creatinine clearance of at least 25 mL/min. Additionally, liver function must be within specified limits regarding aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and bilirubin levels. For patients under 70 years of age with favorable risk AML, inclusion is restricted to those who are not candidates for standard intensive chemotherapy. Female participants must be postmenopausal, surgically sterile, or utilize specific contraception methods. The study includes both male and female subjects.
Plans and Procedures
This phase II, multicentre, open-label clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral decitabine combined with ivosidenib. The study focuses on adult patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia harboring IDH1 mutations. The primary efficacy endpoint is the rate of complete response (CR) or immunophenotypic complete response (CRi), while secondary endpoints include overall survival and event-free survival. The research methodology involves an initial screening period to confirm morphological diagnosis, mutation status, and eligibility based on ECOG performance status and organ function. Following screening, participants receive the study medication, with subsequent monitoring to assess safety and therapeutic response. The overall trial is estimated to continue through March 2030.
Treatment
The experimental treatment consists of ivosidenib, administered as 500 mg film-coated tablets via an oral route. This medication is intended for patients with acute myeloid leukemia harboring an IDH1 mutation.
The study also utilizes a combination therapy involving decitabine and cedazuridine, provided as Inaqovi 35 mg/100 mg film-coated tablets. The total daily dose of this combination is 135 mg, administered orally.
Efficacy
The efficacy of the combination of ivosidenib and oral decitabine will be assessed in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. The primary efficacy endpoints are the rates of complete response (CR) and immunophenotypic complete response (CRi).
Secondary efficacy endpoints include overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS).
