Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Survival(OS)
Up to 5 years

The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death of any cause.

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Up to 9 months after the last subject enrolled.

ORR is defined by Complete Remission (CR)+ CR with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi) + Partial Remission (PR) (according to NCI-WG CLL(2018)) and by CR+PR ( according to Lugano (2014)).Response will be evaluated every 2 cycles (8 weeks) till complete treatment or one month after last dose.

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0.
Up to 1 year

According to CTCAE v5.0, the number and frequency of adverse events of test drug were assessed.

Primary Toxicity Endpoint: dose limiting toxicity (DLT)
42 days

DLT will be defined based on the rate of drug-related grade 3-5 adverse events experienced within the first 6 weeks (2 cycles) of study treatment. These will be assessed via CTCAE version 5.0

Maximally tolerated dose (MTD)
42 days

Frequently asked questions about APG-2575

What is APG-2575?

APG-2575 is an investigational small molecule BCL2 inhibitor being developed by Ascentage Pharma for blood cancers and autoimmune disease. It is in Phase 3 development for acute myeloid leukemia and is also being studied in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

What is APG-2575 used for?

APG-2575 is being studied in acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, and systemic lupus erythematosus. It is investigational and has not been approved for any indication. The most advanced program is a Phase 3 trial in acute myeloid leukemia combining APG-2575 with azacitidine.

What does APG-2575 target?

APG-2575 targets BCL2, a protein that helps cancer cells avoid apoptosis, or programmed cell death. APG-2575 is a BCL2 inhibitor, meaning it blocks this protein to promote death of malignant cells. This mechanism is relevant across B-cell malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia.

Who makes APG-2575?

APG-2575 is being developed by Ascentage Pharma Group International, whose American Depositary Shares trade under the ticker AAPG. Ascentage is the sponsor of the clinical trials evaluating APG-2575 in acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

What phase is APG-2575 in?

APG-2575 is in Phase 3 development. The pivotal Phase 3 trial, NCT06389292, evaluates APG-2575 combined with azacitidine in acute myeloid leukemia and is currently recruiting. Earlier-stage trials include a Phase 2 study in relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma and a Phase 1 study in systemic lupus erythematosus.

What clinical trials is APG-2575 in?

APG-2575 is being evaluated in several trials. NCT06389292 is a Phase 3 study with azacitidine in acute myeloid leukemia. NCT05147467 is a Phase 2 study in relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma. NCT04494503 is a Phase 1 study in the same blood cancers, and NCT06182969 is a Phase 1 study in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Is APG-2575 the same as lisaftoclax?

Yes, APG-2575 is also known as lisaftoclax. Other names used for the same compound include APG2575 and APG2575 400 mg. Lisaftoclax is the international nonproprietary name for this BCL2 inhibitor, so searches for either name refer to the same investigational drug.
