Treatment and study plan

L-Bcl-2 antisense oligonucleotide

Drug

There will be 2 planned dose levels, 20, and 40 mg/m^2. Successive cohorts of eligible patients with will be treated with BP1002. BP1002 is given as an intravenous infusion, twice weekly, as 8 doses per 28-day cycle. Cycles may be repeated every 4 weeks.

Other names: BP1002

Primary outcomes

  1. Identify Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) of BP1002

    Time frame: 30 days

    Identify DLT of BP1002 using non-hematologic and hematologic measures per NCI CTCAE criteria

  2. Identify and grade treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) of escalating doses of BP1002

    Time frame: 30 days

    Identify TEAE of BP1002 using non-hematologic and hematologic measures per NCI CTCAE criteria

    Time frame: 30 days

    Identify and grade treatment-emergent laboratory abnormalities of BP1002 using non-hematologic and hematologic measures per NCI CTCAE criteria

  4. Identify conduction and rhythm changes (treatment emergent QTc elevations or other treatment emergent changes in EKG intervals) of escalating doses of BP1002

  9. Determine half-life plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of BP1002

    Time frame: 30 days

    Evaluate in vivo PK of BP1002 half-life (t1/2)

  10. Determine pharmacokinetics (PK) of BP1002

    Time frame: 30 days

    12-lead EKG assessments will be collected and analyzed for conduction and rhythm changes (treatment emergent QTc elevations or other treatment emergent changes in EKG intervals) from those the EKG obtained immediately before the first BP1002 dose, and after BP1002 dose, and will mirror the time points used to collect the plasma PK assessments
