Summary

"This trial aims to test how well a combination of tagraxofusp, cladribine, and cytarabine works together."

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with a type of blood cancer called Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Participants should have specific markers on their cancer cells (CD123-positive). Details about who can join are not fully provided, so interested persons should inquire further.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of combining a new drug, Tagraxofusp, with two chemotherapy drugs, Cladribine and Cytarabine. The goal is to see if this combination works better for treating AML than current treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea, fever, bleeding complications and increased risk of infections due to low blood cell counts. Specific side effects related to Tagraxofusp were not detailed.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Dose level 3 (DL3)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
DL3 will consist of cladribine 5mg/m2 IV once daily on days 1-5, cytarabine 20mg/m2 IV daily days 1-10, and tagraxofusp 12 mcg/kg IV daily days 4-6. If a DLT is encountered in the first 2 participants, 3 more will be enrolled at the same dose.
Group II: Dose level 2 (DL2)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
DL2 will consist of cladribine 5mg/m2 IV once daily on days 1-4, cytarabine 20mg/m2 IV daily days 1-7, and tagraxofusp 12 mcg/kg IV daily days 4-6. If a DLT is encountered in the first 2 participants, 3 more will be enrolled at the same dose.
Group III: Dose level 1 (DL1)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
DL1 will consist of cladribine 5mg/m2 IV once daily on days 1-3, cytarabine 20mg/m2 IV daily days 1-5, and tagraxofusp 12 mcg/kg IV daily days 4-6. If a DLT is encountered in the first 2 participants, 3 more will be enrolled at the same dose.
Group IV: Dose Level -1 (DL-1)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
DL -1 will consist of cladribine 5mg/m2 IV once daily on days 1-2, cytarabine 20mg/m2 IV daily days 1-4, and tagraxofusp 12mcg/kg IV daily days 4-6.
