Safety and efficacy of talacotuzumab plus decitabine or decitabine alone in patients with acute myeloid leukemia not eligible for chemotherapy: results from a multicenter, randomized, phase 2/3 study.

ABSTRACT: Talacotuzumab, a humanized anti-CD123 monoclonal antibody, was evaluated in combination with decitabine in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) not eligible for intensive chemotherapy. A multicenter, phase 2/3 study was initiated to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of talacotuzumab (Part A) followed by an open-label, randomized comparison of talacotuzumab in combination with decitabine versus decitabine alone to assess achievement of complete response (CR) and overall survival (OS) in Part B. Ten patients were enrolled in Part A and 316 in Part B; the results presented here are based on a database lock on January 25, 2018. Part A confirmed the RP2D of talacotuzumab to be 9 mg/kg. In Part B, CR was achieved in 12/80 (15%) patients receiving combination therapy and
