Results from a phase I/II trial of cusatuzumab combined with azacitidine in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy.

ABSTRACT: Cusatuzumab is a high-affinity, anti-CD70 monoclonal antibody under investigation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This two-part, open-label, multicenter, phase I/II trial evaluated cusatuzumab plus azacitidine in patients with newly diagnosed AML ineligible for intensive chemotherapy. Patients received a single dose of cusatuzumab at one of four dose levels (1, 3, 10, or 20 mg/kg) 14 days before starting combination therapy. In phase I dose escalation, cusatuzumab was then administered on days 3 and 17, in combination with azacitidine (75 mg/m2) on days 1-7, every 28 days. The primary objective in phase I was to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of cusatuzumab plus azacitidine. The primary objective in phase II was efficacy at the RP2D (selected as 10 mg/kg). Thirty-eight pat
