Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of participants who will achieve overall cutaneous Response Rate (RR) based on modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (mSWAT) criteria
From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant

The RR is defined as the number of participants who will achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). mSWAT criteria is used to evaluate the skin tumor burden. The investigator will determine the percentage of total body surface area (TBSA) affected by patches, plaques or tumors in 12 body regions, using the participant's palm and fingers representing 1% of TBSA. CR is defined as 100% clearance of skin lesions and PR is defined as 50% to 99 % clearance of skin lesions from baseline without occurrence of a new tumor.

Secondary Endpoints

Number of participants who will achieve global Response Rate (RR) based on based on consensus global response score
From screening until progressive disease or confirmed lost to follow-up or death from any cause or start of alternate therapy, or withdrawal from the study; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
From the date of administration of the first dose of study medication until progressive disease or death from any cause, whichever occurs first; as assessed for approximately 6 months after the enrollment of the last participant
Kaplan-Meier Estimates of 1-year overall survival (OS) rate
From the date of administration of the first dose of study medication up to the date of progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first; as assessed up to 1 year

Frequently asked questions about Quisinostat

What is Quisinostat used for?

Quisinostat is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, a type of lymphoma that affects the skin. It has been evaluated in patients with previously treated Stage Ib to IVa cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Quisinostat is not yet approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does Quisinostat target?

Quisinostat targets histone deacetylases, specifically HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, HDAC5, HDAC6, and HDAC7. It acts as an HDAC inhibitor. By inhibiting these enzymes, quisinostat alters gene expression and is being investigated for its activity in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Who is developing Quisinostat?

Quisinostat is being developed by Johnson & Johnson, which trades under the ticker JNJ. The company sponsored the clinical trial evaluating the drug in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

What phase is Quisinostat in?

Quisinostat is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed a Phase 2 trial in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA or any regulatory agency for any indication.

What clinical trials is Quisinostat in?

Quisinostat has been studied in one completed Phase 2 trial, NCT01486277, titled A Study of the Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor (HDACi) Quisinostat (JNJ-26481585) in Patients With Previously Treated Stage Ib-IVa Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma. The trial enrolled 26 patients across the United States, France, Germany, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
