Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Brief summary

This Phase Ib study is designed to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab when given in combination with Hu5F9-G4 to patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Interventions

DRUGAtezolizumab

Atezolizumab will be administered to participants by IV infusion at a fixed dose starting on Day 22 of Cycle 1. In subsequent cycles (Cycles 2 and beyond), IV atezolizumab will be given every 2 weeks (Q2W) on Days 8 and 22 of each 28-day cycle.

Two priming doses of 1 mg/kg of Hu5F9-G4 will be administered to participants by continuous IV infusion on Days 1 and 4 of Cycle 1, followed by loading doses of 15 mg/kg IV on Day 8 and 30 mg/kg IV on Day 11. Starting on Day 15 of Cycle 1, Hu5F9-G4 maintenance will be given by IV infusion at a dose of 30 mg/kg once a week (QW) of each 28-day cycle. Dosing for de-escalation, if needed: Hu5F9-G4 will be given as two priming doses of 1 mg/kg IV on Days 1 and 4, followed by loading doses of 10 mg/kg IV on Day 8 and 15 mg/kg on Day 11. Starting on Day 15, maintenance treatment with Hu5F9-G4 will be given by IV infusion at a dose of 15 mg/kg once a week (QW).

Atezolizumab + Hu5F9-G4
An initial safety evaluation was performed in participants with relapsed AML. If atezolizumab in combination with Hu5F9-G4 was initially safe and tolerable in participants an additional cohort with R/R AML was to be evaluated to further test the safety and anti-tumor activity. Atezolizumab was administered to participants by IV infusion at a fixed dose of 840 mg starting on Day 22 of Cycle 1. In subsequent cycles, IV atezolizumab was given every 2 weeks (Q2W) on Days 8 and 22 of each 28-day cycle. Two priming doses of 1 mg/kg of Hu5F9-G4 were administered to participants by continuous IV infusion on Days 1 and 4 of Cycle 1, followed by loading doses of 15 mg/kg IV on Day 8 and 30 mg/kg IV on Day 11. Starting on Day 15 of Cycle 1, Hu5F9-G4 maintenance was given by IV infusion at a dose of 30 mg/kg once a week (QW) of each 28-day cycle.
