Summary

This trial tests a new pill called BMF-219 that targets a protein named menin. It includes healthy adults and those with Type 2 Diabetes to see if it helps control blood sugar levels.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-65 with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and a BMI of 25-40 kg/m^2, or healthy adults within the same age range but with a BMI of 18-35 kg/m^2. Participants must not be pregnant, should use contraception if applicable, and have stable health as determined by medical history and tests. Treated T2DM subjects may be on up to three anti-diabetic medications.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing BMF-219, an oral covalent menin inhibitor. It's a randomized, double-blind study comparing the effects of BMF-219 against a placebo in both healthy adults and those with T2DM to assess safety, tolerability, how the body processes it (pharmacokinetics), and its effectiveness (pharmacodynamics).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for BMF-219 are not listed here, common side effects from similar diabetes medications can include low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), digestive issues like nausea or diarrhea, potential liver enzyme changes, fatigue or headache.

Trial Design

5Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase 2 MAD CohortsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase 2 MAD Cohorts with healthy adults (MAD 1, randomized 3:1) or adults with T2D (MAD 2-4 \& 6-8, randomized 5:1) receiving BMF-219 or placebo. MAD 5 is BMF-219 only.
Group II: Phase 2 Expansion CohortExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase 2 Expansion Cohort adults with T2D randomized 3:1 ratio receiving BMF-219 or placebo.
Group III: Phase 1 single dose tablet PK sub-studyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase 1 single dose x3 PK tablet open-label sub-study with healthy adults randomized 1:1 receiving BMF-219 or placebo fasted, with a low-fat meal, and with a high-fat meal).
Group IV: Phase 1 single dose food effect sub-studyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase 1 single dose food effect sub-study with healthy adults randomized 1:1:1:1:1:1 receiving BMF-219 or placebo fasted, with a low-fat meal, and with a high fat meal.
Group V: Phase 1 SAD CohortsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Phase 1 SAD Cohorts with healthy adults randomized 3:1 receiving BMF-219 or placebo. A pair of sentinel subjects (randomly assigned 1 active drug and 1 placebo) will be dosed 48 hours prior to dosing of the remainder of subjects in each cohort.

Mechanism Of Action

Other Research
Common treatments for Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) work through various mechanisms to control blood glucose levels. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production and increases insulin sensitivity. Sulfonylureas stimulate insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. DPP-4 inhibitors prolong the action of incretin hormones, which increase insulin release and decrease glucagon levels. GLP-1 receptor agonists enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion and slow gastric emptying. SGLT2 inhibitors reduce glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, leading to increased glucose excretion. Insulin therapy directly supplements or replaces endogenous insulin. These mechanisms are crucial for T2DM patients as they address different aspects of the disease's pathophysiology, providing comprehensive glycemic control. BMF-219, a covalent menin inhibitor, represents a novel approach by potentially targeting specific molecular pathways involved in T2DM, although its exact mechanism in this context requires further elucidation.
