Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if IMC-EB10 is safe for participants with leukemia, and also to determine the best dose of IMC-EB10 to give to participants.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of the anti-FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) monoclonal antibody IMC-EB10, administered weekly in participant with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (AML) who have failed to achieve complete remission to a standard induction regimen, relapsed after response to previous antileukemia therapy, or are not eligible for potentially curative or approved salvage options.
Interventions
Cohort 1 will receive IMC-EB10 intravenously for 3 weekly infusions, followed by a 1-week observation period. The starting dose in Cohort 1 will be 5 mg/kg. After all participants in Cohort 1 complete the first cycle of therapy, dose escalation for subsequent cohorts will proceed as follows: Cohort 2 - 10 mg/kg, Cohort 3 - 20 mg/kg, Cohort 4 - 30 mg/kg. Participants who experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) will not receive further IMC-EB10 treatment, but will continue to be followed on the protocol. Participants may continue to receive IMC-EB10 therapy, in the absence of treatment failure, treatment intolerance, or other withdrawal criteria for additional 28-day cycles at the same dose that they initially received. Dosing for Cycle 2 and beyond will be administered on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of a 28-day treatment cycle
