A Study of JNJ-89853413 for Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Neoplasms

The purpose of Part 1 (Dose Escalation) of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability, and to identify the recommended Phase 2 dose[s] (RP2D[s]) in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (that is a type of blood cancer that has come back after treatment/or has stopped responding to treatment) or R/R higher-risk type of myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS, type of blood cancer). The purpose of Part 2 (Cohort Expansion) is to further assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy in participants with R/R AML or higher-risk types of MDS.

  • Has evidence of an uncontrolled systemic viral, bacterial, or fungal infection
  • Has known allergies, hypersensitivity, or intolerance to the excipients of JNJ-89853413

Treatment and study plan

JNJ-89853413

Drug

JNJ-89853413 will be administered.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants with Adverse events (AEs) by Severity

    Time frame: From screening untill 30 days after last dose of study drug (that is approximately 2.5 years)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.

  2. Part 1: Number of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLTs)

    Time frame: 14 days

    Participants with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) will be assessed. DLT is defined as any toxicity that requires discontinuation of treatment, any Grade 5 toxicity; Non-hematologic Toxicity (Grade 3 or 4) and Hematologic Toxicity.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Serum Concentration of JNJ- 89853413

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    Serum samples will be analyzed to determine concentrations of JNJ-89853413 using a validated immunoassay method.

  2. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time (AUC[t]) Curve of JNJ-89853413

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    AUC[t] is defined as the area under the plasma concentration time curve during a dosing interval at steady-state.

  3. Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of JNJ-89853413

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    Cmax is defined as maximum serum concentration of JNJ-89853413.

  4. Trough Observed Serum Concentration (Ctrough) of JNJ-89853413

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    Ctrough is the trough observed serum concentration of JNJ-89853413.

  5. Number of Participants with Presence of anti-drug Antibodies of JNJ-89853413

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    Participants with anti JNJ-89853413 antibodies will be analyzed by a bridging electrochemiluminescence (ECL) enzyme linked immune assay.

  6. Complete Response (CR) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    CR is achieved when a participant has a best response of CR (complete response with partial hematologic recovery [CRh] or complete response with incomplete hematologic recovery [CRi]) according to the European Leukemia Network (ENL) 2022 criteria.

  7. Overall Response (OR) in Myelodysplastic Neoplasms (MDS)

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    OR is achieved when a participant with MDS has a CR (any type, that is CRh or complete response with limited count recovery [CRL]), partial response (PR), or hematologic improvement (HI) according to the International Working Group (IWG) 2023 criteria.

  8. Complete Response in MDS

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    CR is achieved when a participant has a best response of CR (including CRh/CRL) according to the IWG 2023 criteria.

  9. Duration of Response (DOR)

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    DOR is defined for responsders only, as time from date of initial documentation of a response to the first documented evidence of no reponse, disease progression, relapse, initation of a new systemic anti-cancer therapy (besides hematopoietic stem cell transplant [HSCT]), or death, whichever comes first.

  10. Time to response (TTR)

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    TTR is defined for responders only, as the time from the first dose of study drug to first qualifying response.

  11. Number of Participants Achieving Transfusion independence

    Time frame: Approximately 2.5 years

    Transfusion independence is defined as the absence of red blood cell (RBC) and platelet transfusions for 8 weeks or longer after starting study treatment for participants with AML and 16 weeks or longer for participants with MDS.
