Recruiting at 4 sites Phase 1 Acute Myeloid Leukemia, in Relapse

Acute Myeloid Leukemia, in Relapse study: Decitabine

Official title A Clinical Trial of BP1002 in Patients With Refractory/Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05190471

What this study is testing

What is BP1002?

BP1002 is an investigational injectable medicine being studied as a potential treatment for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. It is designed to bind to Bcl-2 messenger RNA and reduce production of the Bcl-2 protein that helps leukemia cells survive.

Also referred to as Liposomal Bcl-2; L-Bcl-2.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study aims to find the safest dose of BP1002 and see if it helps fight the leukemia when used alone or with another drug called decitabine.
Who it's for
The study is looking for adults with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or has not responded to previous treatments.
What's involved
Participants will receive BP1002 through an IV (a tube into a vein) and may also take decitabine. They will have regular blood tests and medical checkups to monitor how their body reacts to the drug.
Time commitment
The study involves multiple visits to the clinic for treatment and testing, with the duration depending on how the participant responds to the drug.
