Summary

This trial will help researchers learn more about how safe and tolerable cusatuzumab is when used with different AML treatments.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with a new or secondary type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who haven't been treated yet, except to manage high white blood cell counts. They should be fairly active and not eligible for intensive chemo or stem cell transplant at the start. People with HIV, central nervous system leukemia, allergies to the drugs being tested, or recent live vaccines can't join.
What is being tested?
The study tests cusatuzumab combined with other AML treatments like venetoclax and azacitidine. It aims to understand how safe this combination is and how well patients tolerate it.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system due to cusatuzumab, low blood counts from venetoclax which could increase infection risk, and gastrointestinal issues from azacitidine.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Experimental: Cohort 2: Cusatuzumab + VenetoclaxExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants enrolled in this cohort will receive venetoclax ramp-up to 400 mg orally (as background therapy) starting on Cycle 1 Day 1 and followed by 400 mg daily dosing starting on Cycle 1 Day 4 plus cusatuzumab IV on Day 3 and Day 17 of each 28-day cycle. Cohort 2 will not be enrolled in the US.
Group II: Cohort 3: Cusatuzumab + Venetoclax + Azacitidine (CVA)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants enrolled at US sites will receive cusatuzumab 10 mg/kg and potentially escalate to 20 mg/kg IV in combination with azacitidine 75 mg/m\^2 SC or IV plus venetoclax ramp-up to 400 mg orally (as background therapies). Participants enrolled from ex-US sites will receive cusatuzumab 20 mg/kg and potentially de-escalate to 10 mg/kg IV in combination with azacitidine 75 mg/m\^2 SC or IV plus venetoclax ramp-up to 400 mg orally (as background therapies).
