About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2 Study of Vadastuximab Talirine (SGN-CD33A) in Combination With Azacitidine in Patients With Previously Untreated International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) Intermediate-2 or High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

This is a phase 1/2 study to evaluate the combination of vadastuximab talirine (SGN-CD33A; 33A) and azacitidine in subjects with previously untreated International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) Intermediate-2 or high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

Read the detailed description

In the phase 1 portion of the study, escalating doses of 33A will be evaluated in combination with azacitidine, and a dose of 33A will be selected to proceed to phase 2. The phase 2 portion of the study is randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled; it is designed to compare the overall response rate (ORR) between 2 study arms.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Phase 1 Outcome Measure: Recommended Dose of Vadastuximab Talirine for the Phase 2 Portion of the Study

    A recommended dose of vadastuximab talirine was not identified in Phase 1 due to study termination. Number of dose delays and reductions are reported in lieu of a dose recommendation.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Phase 2 Outcome Measure: Overall Response Rate for the Phase 2 Portion of the Study

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Safety of the Combination of Vadastuximab Talirine and Azacitidine Measured by the Number of Participants With Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities

    As defined by the number of participants with adverse events and laboratory abnormalities. Participants are included only once per row, even if the participant experienced multiple events applicable to the category.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Complete Response Rate (CR)

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the CR rate, as defined by the 2006 IWG criteria for MDS.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

  3. Hematologic Improvement (HI) Rate

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the HI rate, as defined by the 2006 IWG criteria for MDS.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

  4. Duration of Response (DOR) Rate

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the time from first observation of response (CR, PR, or Marrow CR) to disease progression/relapse or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

  5. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the time from first dose of study medication to first documentation of disease progression/relapse, or to death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

  6. Rate of Transformation to Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the rate of transformation to AML after initiation of study therapy.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

  7. Overall Survival (OS)

    Study did not progress to Phase 2. A comparison between the 2 arms (Phase 2) of the time from first dose of study medication to death due to any cause.

    Measured: N/A - End point not assessed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing vadastuximab talirine and Azacitidine in people with Myelodysplastic Syndrome, run by Seagen Inc. at 34 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 34 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Dec 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Phase 1 Outcome Measure: Recommended Dose of Vadastuximab Talirine for the Phase 2 Portion of the Study (time frame: Up to 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2019.
