Conditions

Brief summary

This Phase 3 study in adult participants with newly diagnosed low-risk APL will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and PK of an oral capsule formulation of ATO, in combination with ATRA.

Interventions

DRUGQTX-2101 + ATRA

The experimental regimen consists of IV ATO administered once daily during induction, given continuously, for up to a maximum of 60 days. During consolidation, QTX-2101 is administered once daily, per investigator's protocol. ATRA is administered orally in two divided daily doses during induction, given continuously until bone marrow remission (not exceeding 60 days). During consolidation, ATRA is taken orally in two divided daily doses following a 2-weeks-on / 2-weeks-off schedule within each 8-week cycle.

DRUGIV arsenic trioxide (ATO) + ATRA

The comparator regimen consists of IV ATO administered once daily during induction, given continuously, for up to a maximum of 60 days. During consolidation, IV ATO is administered once daily, per investigator's protocol. ATRA is administered orally in two divided daily doses during induction, given continuously until bone marrow remission (not exceeding 60 days). During consolidation, ATRA is taken orally in two divided daily doses following a 2-weeks-on / 2-weeks-off schedule within each 8-week cycle.

Participants who have central nervous system leukemia 3. Participants having serious ongoing medical conditions or infections including uncontrolled infections, severe organ disease, or conditions that make study participation unsafe 4.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Maximum observed plasma (concentration (Cmax) of QTX-2101 for ASIIIUp to 1 cycle of consolidation therapy (each cycle is 8 weeks)Cmax is defined as the maximum observed plasma concentration following administration of \[investigational product\], determined from plasma concentration-time data.
Molecular complete remission (molecular CR) rateUp to 60 days of induction and 3 8-week cycles of consolidation treatmentmCR is defined as the absence of detectable PML-RARA fusion transcript in bone marrow assessed by a validated quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay .The mCR rate is defined as the proportion of participants achieving molecular remission at the specified assessment time point following induction and consolidation therapy.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
To characterize the safety and tolerability of QTX-2101/ATRA and IV ATO/ATRAThroughout approximately 10 months of study treatmentTreatment emergent adverse events
To characterize the event-free survival (EFS) of QTX-2101/ATRAAssessed for up to 3 years after the first dose of treatment, or until treatment failure (disease progression), death, or study completion, whichever occurs first
Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of QTX-2101 for ASIIIUp to 10 monthsAUC is defined as the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration (AUC₀-t) and/or extrapolated to infinity (AUC₀-∞), calculated using noncompartmental methods.
To complete a model-based concentration QT relationship evaluationUp to 10 monthsTime-matched difference in change from baseline in QTcF interval between active treatment and placebo, derived from triplicate 12-lead ECGs at each post-dose time point
EORTC QLQ-C30 domain unit of measure and measurement toolUp to 10 monthsChange from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status (0-100 scale)
EQ-5D-5L domain unit of measure and measurement toolUp to 10 monthsChange from baseline in EQ-5D-5L index score (0-100)
Overall SurvivalAssessed for up to 3 years after the first dose of treatment, or until treatment failure (disease progression), death, or study completion, whichever occurs firstOS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. Participants who are alive at the time of analysis will be censored at the date last known to be alive.
Event Free Survival (EFS)Assessed for up to 3 years after the first dose of treatment, or until treatment failure (disease progression), death, or study completion, whichever occurs firstEFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of any of the following events: failure to achieve hematologic or molecular remission, relapse (hematologic or molecular), or death from any cause. Participants without an event at the time of analysis will be censored at the date of last adequate disease assessment.
