A Study of an MMSET Inhibitor in Patients With Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma
18 Years and older, Male and Female
KTX-MMSET-001 (primary)
NCI-2023-01697
EUCTR No: 2022-500801-41-00
Summary
A Phase I study to evaluate the safety of a novel, orally available, selective, and
potent small molecule inhibitor of the histone lysine methyl transferase MMSET (also
known as NSD2/WHSC1) to prevent the dimethylation of H3K36 in adult patients with
relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
Objectives
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose-escalation and expansion study in adult patients with
RRMM.
In the dose escalation phase (Part A), patients will be evaluated for DLTs during Cycle 1
(28 days). The KTX-1001 MTD, RP2D, and schedule will be determined.
In the dose expansion phase (Part B), patients with t(4;14) will receive KTX-1001 at the
RP2D alone and in combination with investigational therapy Mezigdomide or SOC therapy
(dexamethasone, carfilzomib or pomalidomide) to further define safety and tolerability
and provide preliminary efficacy information.
Eligibility
- Key Inclusion Criteria for Dose-Expansion:
- = 18 years of age
- ECOG score = 1
- Multiple myeloma (as per IMWG)
- Prior therapy for MM: Participants must have received at least 1 and up to 3
prior lines of therapy as defined by IMWG, and the following drug classes: PI,
IMiD, and anti-CD38 antibody. For mezigdomide combination Cohorts B1 and B2,
participants must have received at least 2 prior lines of therapy
- Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of progressive MM (per IMWG),
t(4;14) confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) testing
performed in a centralized Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)
accredited laboratory via fresh tumor biopsy.
- Measurable disease, including at least 1 of the following criteria:
- Serum M protein = 0.50 g/dL (by SPEP)
- Serum IgA = 0.50 g/dL (IgA myeloma patients)
- Urine M protein = 200 mg/24 h (by UPEP)
- sFLC involved light chain = 10 mg/dL (100 mg/L) (patients with abnormal sFLC
ratio)
- Bone marrow plasma cells = 30% (if only criterion for measurability)
- Agreement to enroll into the REMS program (Cohort D- pomalidomide cohort only)
Key Exclusion Criteria for Dose-Expansion:
- Treatment with the following therapies in the specified time period prior to first
dose:
- Patients in Cohorts B1 and B2 must not have received prior mezigdomide
treatment
- Carfilzomib in the immediate last prior line of therapy for patients enrolled
in Cohorts C1 and C2
- Pomalidomide in the immediate last prior line of therapy for patients enrolled
in cohort D
- Radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or any other anticancer therapy = 2
weeks
- Cellular therapies = 8 weeks
- Autologous transplant < 100 days
- Allogenic transplant = 6 months, or > 6 months with active GVHD
- Major surgery = 4 weeks
- Current plasma cell leukemia, POEMS (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy,
and skin changes) syndrome, solitary bone lesion or bone lesions as the only
evidence for plasma cell dyscrasia, myelodysplastic syndrome or a myeloproliferative
neoplasm or light chain amyloidosis
- Active CNS disease: participants with previously treated stable CNS disease are
eligible, except for Cohorts B1 and B2 for which known CNS myeloma involvement is
completely excluded.
- Inadequate bone marrow function
- Inadequate renal, hepatic, pulmonary, and cardiac function
- Active, ongoing, or uncontrolled systemic viral, bacterial, or fungal infection.
Permitted prophylactic medications, antimicrobials or antiretroviral therapies
defined in protocol.
- Use of acid reducing agents and strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4 within 7
days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to first dose
- Strong CYP1A2 inhibitors for patients receiving pomalidomide (Cohort D)
- Active malignancy not related to myeloma requiring therapy within < 2 years prior to
enrollment, or not in complete remission, with exceptions defined in protocol.
