Phase 1/2, Open-label, Dose Escalation Study of Vosaroxin in Patients with Intermediate 2 or High-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) after Failure of Hypomethylating Agent-based Therapy
Study Status
Open to Enrollment
Study Description
This clinical trial is for men and women with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that is relapsed or refractory after treatment with a hypomethylating agent-based therapy.
The study is evaluating an experimental drug called vosaroxin, which is given as an IV infusion. The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of vosaroxin in treating relapsed/refractory high risk MDS.
The study is being done in two parts.
Part 1 (Dose Escalation Phase): this part of the study will look at the safety of increasing dose levels of vosaroxin in people with intermediate-2 or high-risk MDS. The dose determined to have the most effect without too many side effects will be used in Part 2.
Part 2 (Cohort Expansion Phase): participants in this part of the study will receive the dose that was determined to have the most effect in Part 1. Part 2 will evaluate how this dose of vosaroxin affects MDS.
The study is expected to last for about 5 years. A participant’s total length of time depends on how well he/she responds to therapy. Participants may continue on therapy as long as they are responding well to treatment and not experiencing unacceptable side effects.
