A Study of SKLB1028 in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Phase I Open-Label, Sequential Dose Escalation Study Investigating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of SKLB1028 When Administered Daily to Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Patients will receive oral SKLB1028 for 28 days to study the side effects, tolerability and best dose for treating relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia With FLT3 Mutations.

It is open-label, dose escalation study designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of orally administered SKLB1028 as a single agent given daily for 28 days. Cohorts of 3 patients receive SKLB1028 until dose limiting toxicity is noted (DLT). At that point cohorts will expand to 6 patients until MTD is determined. Patients not experiencing DLT or significant disease progression could continue receiving SKLB1028 up to 1 year.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Written informed consent must be provided.

• Males and females age ≥ 18 years;

• Histopathologically documented primary or secondary AML, as defined by WHO criteria, confirmed by pathology review at treating institution, meeting at least one of the following:

  1. Refractory to at least 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy, or
  2. Relapsed after at least 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy, or
  3. Patient is not, according to the clinical judgment of the Principal Investigator, a candidate for induction chemotherapy due to age, comorbidity, or other factors;

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-3;

• In the absence of rapidly progressing disease, the interval from prior treatment to time of SKLB1028 administration should be at least 2 weeks for cytotoxic agents, or at least 5 half-lives for noncytotoxic agents;

• Serum creatinine ≤1.5 × ULN;

• Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN unless considered due to Gilbert's syndrome or leukemic organ involvement;

• Serum AST or ALT ≤ 3.0 × ULN unless considered due to leukemic organ involvement;

• Active hepatitis B or C or other active liver disease;
• Women who are pregnant, lactating;
• Medical condition, serious intercurrent illness, or other extenuating circumstance that, in the judgment of the Principal Investigator, could jeopardize patient safety or interfere with the objectives of the study.
