Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, NTX-301, to see if it can help people with myeloid malignancies (a type of cancer). The drug is taken orally, and has shown promise in earlier studies.

Who is the study for?
Adults (≥18 years) with certain types of blood cancers that have not responded to previous treatments can join this trial. They must be able to take oral medication, have a life expectancy of at least 4 months, and their major organs need to function well. Women who could get pregnant and men must use effective birth control. People with acute promyelocytic leukemia, severe infections, malabsorption issues, recent other cancers or organ transplants cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing NTX-301, an oral DNMT1 inhibitor designed to treat myeloid malignancies like Myelomonocytic Leukemia and Acute Myeloid Leukemia. This is the first time it's being used in humans after showing promise in preclinical studies.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not listed but may include typical reactions related to cancer medications such as digestive issues, fatigue, liver problems or changes in blood counts due to the drug's mechanism targeting DNA methylation processes.
