E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Phase I
•Determine the MTD and DLT of AMN107 as a single agent when administered as an oral once-daily dose or twice daily dose to adult patients with Gleevec-resistant CML in chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast crisis, or relapsed/refractory Ph+ ALL.
•To characterize the PK profile in plasma and, where samples are available, in tumor cells and normal hematopoietic cells
Phase II
•To evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMN107 in patients with imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML-BC, imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML-AP and imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML-CP
•To evaluate safety and preliminary anticancer activity of AMN107 in relapsed/refractory patients with Ph+ ALL and in patients with HEL/CEL and SM |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Phase I
•To characterize the safety and tolerability of AMN107
•To characterize the pharmacodynamic profile of AMN107 by assessing the following changes:
- the mutational status of Abl
- the Bcr-Abl, Stat 5,Stat 1,Crk-L, c-kit,PDGFR,AKT phosphorylation status
- Crk-L analysis
•For the other secondary objectives see protocol section 2.2.1
Phase II
•To evaluate the population pharmacokinetics of AMN107
CML
1.To assess changes in Bcr-Abl transcript and Crk-L protein in malignant cells taken from the bone marrow and/or blood, and mutational analysis of Bcr-Abl
2.To examine whether individual genetic variation in genes relating to drug metabolism, CML and the drug pathway confer differential response to AMN107.
3.To identify gene expression patterns in tumor cells that are associated with treatment response to AMN107 or that correlate with the severity or progression of CML.
For secondary objectives in ALL, HES/CEL and SM see protocol sections 2.2.2.2 and 2.2.3 |
