Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
28 days

Dose escalation will continue until the MTD is determined. The MTD is defined as the highest dose at which ≤1 patient experiences a DLT in Cycle 1. Count of participants who did not experience a DLT are listed in outcome measure data table.

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
De-escalation Cohort; 20mgACTIVE_COMPARATORFor the purposes of dose escalation decisions, a standard 3+3 dose escalation design will be used.The initial cohort, Cohort 1, will consist of 3 enrolled patients who will be treated at 30 mg. If the MTD is exceeded at cohort 1, de-escalation to cohort 0 (20 mg) will occur. If the MTD is not exceeded in cohort 1, dose escalation will continue based on a standard 3+3 design at the dose levels.
Cohort 1; 30 mgACTIVE_COMPARATORThe initial cohort, Cohort 1, will consist of 3 enrolled patients who will be treated at 30 mg.
Cohort 2; 40mgACTIVE_COMPARATORDose escalation to 40 mg after initial cohort (Cohort 1) after a minimum of 1 cycle of treatment, defined as receiving ≥75% of KPT-9274 doses during Cycle 1 (e.g., ≥9 of 12 doses in the 3 doses/week schedule), or have a DLT within the first cycle of treatment to be evaluable for dose escalation decisions.
Cohort 3; 60mgACTIVE_COMPARATORDose escalation to 60 mg after initial cohort (Cohort 1) after a minimum of 1 cycle of treatment, defined as receiving ≥75% of KPT-9274 doses during Cycle 1 (e.g., ≥9 of 12 doses in the 3 doses/week schedule), or have a DLT within the first cycle of treatment to be evaluable for dose escalation decisions.
Cohort 4; 80mgACTIVE_COMPARATORDose escalation to 80 mg after initial cohort (Cohort 1) after a minimum of 1 cycle of treatment, defined as receiving ≥75% of KPT-9274 doses during Cycle 1 (e.g., ≥9 of 12 doses in the 3 doses/week schedule), or have a DLT within the first cycle of treatment to be evaluable for dose escalation decisions.
Cohort 5; 100mgACTIVE_COMPARATORDose escalation to 100 mg after initial cohort (Cohort 1) after a minimum of 1 cycle of treatment, defined as receiving ≥75% of KPT-9274 doses during Cycle 1 (e.g., ≥9 of 12 doses in the 3 doses/week schedule), or have a DLT within the first cycle of treatment to be evaluable for dose escalation decisions.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
KPT-9274DRUGKPT-9274 is a first-in-class orally bioavailable, non-competitive, small molecule, dual modulator of p21 protein (Cdc42/Rac)-activated kinase 4 (PAK4) and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase /PBEF/visfatin (NAMPT). NAMPT is the rate-limiting enzyme in the metabolic scavenging pathway that utilizes nicotinamide to replenish nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), an essential metabolic cofactor and second messenger. Recent investigations have shown that in in vitro and in vivo models, NAMPT is uniquely essential for relapsed or refractory AML stem cells. Targeting relapsed AML stem cells, through targeting of NAMPT, may allow for a promising therapeutic opportunity for patients with relapsed or refractory AML.
