A phase 1/2 study of NS-87/CPX-351 (cytarabine and daunorubicin liposome) in Japanese patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

NS-87/CPX-351 is a dual-drug liposomal encapsulation of cytarabine and daunorubicin. NS-87/CPX-351 exerts antileukemic action by maintaining a synergistic molar ratio of cytarabine to daunorubicin of 5:1 within the liposome while in circulation. Patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which includes therapy-related AML and AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC), have poorer outcomes than those with other AML.

Methodology

This open-label phase 1/2 (P1/2) study was conducted in 47 Japanese patients aged 60-75 years with newly diagnosed high-risk AML to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of NS-87/CPX-351.

Results

In the 6 patients enrolled in the P1 portion, no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported, and 100 uni
