ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05211570

This clinical trial is testing a new drug, AB8939, to see if it is safe and well-tolerated in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has returned or is not responding to treatment. The study aims to find the best dose for future research.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The main goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of AB8939 in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or is not responding to treatment. Researchers will identify any side effects, the highest dose patients can tolerate, and the recommended dose for further studies.

Description

This study is divided into two parts and involves patients with relapsed or hard-to-treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome. In the first part, researchers will gradually increase the dose of AB8939 to find the safest and most effective dose. This part will help determine how the drug is processed in the body and its side effects. In the second part, the study will expand to include more patients to further assess the drug's effectiveness and determine the best schedule for future trials. Participants will receive AB8939 through an IV and will be closely monitored for their response to the treatment and any side effects.
