• Assess changes in the following individual measures of MC burden: BM MCs, serum tryptase, KIT mutation burden in PB and BM, liver and spleen volume by imaging
• Assess additional PROs using the AdvSM-SAF and changes in QoL measures

E.2.3

Trial contains a sub-study

E.3

Principal inclusion criteria

1. Patients who are ≥ 18 years of age.
2. Patients must have 1 of the following diagnoses as confirmed by WHO diagnostic criteria (Appendix 4, Appendix 5, and Appendix 6). Before enrollment, the SSC must confirm the diagnosis of AdvSM (based on Central Pathology Laboratory assessment of BM).
o ASM.
o SM-AHN.

The AHN must be myeloid, with the following exceptions that are excluded:
• AML.
• Myelodysplastic syndrome that is very high- or high-risk, as defined by the International Prognostic Scoring System for Myelodysplastic Syndromes (Greenberg et al, 2012).
• A myeloid AHN with ≥ 10% BM or PB blasts.
• Philadelphia chromosome-positive malignancies.

Incidental indolent, low-grade lymphoid AHNs (eg, chronic lymphocytic leukemia) not requiring treatment are eligible.
o MCL, including diagnoses with an AHN component.
3. Patients with SM-AHN should have received prior treatment for the AHN component of disease if, in the opinion of the Investigator, such therapy was appropriate.
4. Patient must have a BM biopsy taken within 56 days of C1D1, assessed by the Central Pathology Laboratory.
5. Cohort 1 only: Patient must have at least 1 of the following measurable C-findings, per modified IWG-MRT-ECNM criteria, attributed to SM (Appendix 6, unless diagnosis is MCL, which does not require a C-finding). Laboratory abnormality C-findings should not be assessed until the required washout period from last cytoreductive therapy has been met. If a C-finding improves during the Screening period, prior to dosing, and no longer meets criteria for evaluability, it can no longer be counted as a C-finding.In addition,
• Patients must have documented evidence of mast cell aggregates in
the bone marrow or other extracutaneous organ based on central
pathology.
• Patient must be willing to have follow up biopsies of affected organ(s)
to document response.
Measurable C-findings:
o Cytopenias:

• ANC < 1.0 × 10^9/L or
• Hemoglobin < 10 g/dL or
• Platelet count < 75 × 109/L.

NOTE: Cytopenias attributable to prior cytoreductive therapy or causes other than SM may not be used as C-findings.
o Symptomatic ascites or pleural effusion requiring medical intervention such as:

• Use of diuretics (Grade 2) or
• ≥ 2 therapeutic paracenteses or thoracenteses (Grade 3) at least 28 days apart over the 12 weeks before

C1D-8 and 1 of the procedures is performed during the 6 weeks before C1D-8.
o ≥ Grade 2 abnormalities in direct bilirubin (> 1.5 × upper limit of normal [ULN]), aspartate aminotransferase (AST; > 3.0 × ULN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT; > 3.0 × ULN), or alkaline phosphatase (> 2.5 × ULN) with 1 of the following present:

• Ascites or
• Clinically relevant portal hypertension or
• Liver MC infiltration that is biopsy-proven or
• No other identified cause of abnormal liver function.

o ≥ Grade 2 hypoalbuminemia (< 3.0 g/dL).
o A spleen that is palpable ≥ 5 cm below the left costal margin.
o Transfusion-dependent anemia defined as:

• Transfusion of ≥ 6 units packed red blood cells (PRBCs) in the 12 weeks before C1D-8 and
• Most recent transfusion occurring during the 4 weeks before C1D-8 and
• Transfusion administered for hemoglobin ≤ 8.5 g/dL and
• Reason for transfusion is not bleeding, hemolysis, or therapy-related.

6. Patient must have a serum tryptase ≥ 20 ng/mL.
7. Patients receiving cytoreductive therapy within the preceding 12 weeks must have discontinued therapy due to disease progression, refractory disease, lack of efficacy, or intolerance.
8. Patient’s non-antineoplastic SM therapies (ie, BSC; eg, H1 and H2 blockers) must be stable (same dose, no new medications for SM) for ≥ 14 days C1D-8. This criterion is not applicable if a patient has progressive disease and it is in the patient’s best interest to enroll in the study rapidly with Medical Monitor approval.
9. If the patient is receiving corticosteroids, the dose must be ≤ 20 mg/d prednisone or equivalent and dose must be stable for ≥ 14 days before C1D-8. This criterion is not applicable if the patient has progressive disease, and it is in the patient’s best interest to enroll in the study rapidly with Medical Monitor approval.
10. Patient has Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0 to 3.
11. Patient must be able to give written informed consent.
