About this study
Official title: Concomitant Omacetaxine Mepesuccinate and Azacitidine for Patients With Previously Untreated High Grade Myelodysplastic Syndromes
This study will treat patients with previously untreated high grade myleodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with both omacetaxine mepesuccinate and azacitidine.
Read the detailed description
This is an open-label, phase I/II study for previously untreated patients with high grade MDS using omacetaxine and azacitidine with a small expansion cohort for relapsed and refractory MDS patients. Phase I features dose escalation, where patients will be assigned to one of three cohorts to receive different doses of omacetaxine with the standard dose and schedule of azacitidine, over a 28 day cycle. Phase II features the maximum tolerated dose from the Phase 1 study. An additional expansion cohort of 10 MDS patients who have failed to respond to or responded and relapsed after at least one line of therapy containing a hypomethylating agent therapy will also be accrued.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
OmacetaxineDrug
Also called Phase 1
Phase I is a dose escalation phase. Patients will be enrolled into one of three cohorts to receive omacetaxine subcutaneously (0.5, 0.75, 1.0, or 1.25 mg/m2) twice daily on days 1 to 7.
AzacitidineDrug
Also called Phase 1
Azacitidine will be given at the standard dose and schedule, 75 mg/m2 once daily, on days 1 to 7. The patients will then be monitored for 21 more days ( to complete one 28 day cycle) but no more medication will be administered during those 21 days.
OmacetaxineDrug
Also called Phase 2
Phase II is a maximum tolerated dose phase. Phase I will determine the maximum tolerated dose (highest amount that can be safely administered). Patients will receive omacetaxine subcutaneously at the maximum tolerated dose (0.5, 0.75, 1.0, or 1.25 mg/m2) twice daily on days 1 to 7.
AzacitidineDrug
Also called Phase 2
Azacitidine will be given at the standard dose and schedule, 75 mg/m2 once daily, on days 1 to 7. The patients will then be monitored for 21 more days ( to complete one 28 day cycle) but no more medication will be administered during those 21 days.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Cohort 0: De-Escalation Omacetaxine .5mg/m2 | Experimental | De-escalation dose if DLTs are experienced for Cohort 1. Dose is Omacetaxine .5mg/m2 subcutaneous BID days 1-7. Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
| Cohort 1: Escalation Phase Omacetaxine .75mg/m2 | Experimental | Patients in Cohort 1 will receive .75mg/m2 subcutaneous BID days 1-7. Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
| Cohort 2: Escalation Phase Omacetaxine 1.0mg/m2 | Experimental | Patients in Cohort 2 will receive 1.0mg/m2 subcutaneous BID days 1-7. Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
| Cohort 3: Escalation Phase Omacetaxine 1.25mg/m2 | Experimental | Patients in Cohort 3 will receive 1.25mg/m2 subcutaneous BID days 1-7. Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
| Cohort 4: Expansion Phase Omacetaxine .5mg/m2 | Experimental | Dosing in Expansion Phase is based on the MTD determined with Cohorts 0-3. MTD was determined to be .5 mg/m2. Patients received .5mg/m2 Omacetaxine BID subcutaneously days 1-7. Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
| Cohort 5: Relapse Phase | Experimental | Not described Receives: Drug: Omacetaxine; Drug: Azacitidine |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants Without Dose Limiting Toxicities in Cycle 1 for Phase 1 (Dose Escalation) Cohorts 0 and 1 to Determine Maximum Tolerated Dose
Determine the recommended dose of omacetaxine based on the maximum tolerated dose. 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.
Measured: First treatment through end of Cycle 1 (28 days) only for dose escalation cohorts.
Overall Response Rate
This was a pre-specified primary outcome measure defined by the proportion of patients who achieve any category of complete remission (CR, includes CR and marrow CR) or partial remission (PR) based on the 2006 International Working Group (IWG) criteria for MDS1.
Measured: First treatment date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years.
Secondary outcomes (3)
Overall Survival
Overall survival will be defined as the amount of time from administration of the initial dose of omacetaxine and azacitidine to death from any cause.. This will be measured using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis curves.
Measured: First treatment date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years.
Progression Free Survival
Progression Free Survival will be defined as the amount of time from administration of the initial dose of omacetaxine and azacitidine that a patient lives with the disease but does not get worse. This will be measured using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis curves.
Measured: First treatment date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years.
Duration of Response
Duration of Response will be defined as Time from documentation of tumor response to disease progression.This will be measured using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis curves.
Measured: First treatment date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Omacetaxine and Azacitidine in people with High Grade Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by University of Colorado, Denver at 1 site 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 14 inclusion and 15 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site 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 29 Sep 2026). 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?
Number of Participants Without Dose Limiting Toxicities in Cycle 1 for Phase 1 (Dose Escalation) Cohorts 0 and 1 to Determine Maximum Tolerated Dose (time frame: First treatment through end of Cycle 1 (28 days) only for dose escalation cohorts.). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03564873, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 6 Nov 2026.
