Clinical trial

A Phase 1/2 Dose-Finding Study to Evaluate the Safety, Feasibility, and Activity of BPX-701, a Controllable PRAME T-Cell Receptor Therapy, in HLA-A2+ Subjects With AML, Previously Treated MDS, or Metastatic Uveal Melanoma

Name
BP-011
Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and activity of BPX-701 in participants with relapsed AML, previously treated MDS, or metastatic uveal melanoma expressing high levels of PReferentially expressed Antigen in MElanoma (PRAME). Participants' T cells are modified to recognize and target the PRAME tumor marker on cancer cells.

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria 1. Signed informed consent 2. Participants in Arm 1: MDS not responding to hypomethylation therapy or recurrence after initial response AML with disease relapse following first complete remission with intermediate or adverse genetics according to the European Leukemia Net criteria. AML participants with prior stem cell transplant must be \>100 days post-transplant with no evidence of active graft-versus-host disease and not requiring systemic immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive therapy (\>10mg prednisone daily or treatment with a calcineurin inhibitor) 3. Participants in Arm 2: Metastatic uveal melanoma with a radiographically measurable tumor, absolute neutrophil count \>/=1000/uL, and platelets \>/=75,000/uL 4. HLA-A2.01 positive by local testing 5. Tumor with positive PRAME expression by central testing 6. Age \>/= 18 years 7. Participant has a life expectancy \>12 weeks and is able to carry out daily life activities without difficulty (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 or 1). 8. Participant has adequate venous access for apheresis or agrees to use of a central line for blood collection. 9. Participant does not have significant side effects from previous anticancer treatment. 10. Adequate organ function including absolute lymphocyte count \>/=200/uL. 11. Sexually active participants must use medically acceptable methods of contraception for at least 1 year after study treatment. Exclusion Criteria 1. Participants with AML must not have: * Acute promyelocytic leukemia, * Primary refractory disease, * Uncontrolled disseminated intravascular coagulation, * Signs or symptoms of cancer cells in the brain or nervous system, * Peripheral blast count \>/=20,000/uL 2. Participants with uveal melanoma must not have an untreated brain tumor 3. Participant has a history of major surgery or treatment with other cancer therapy within 2-4 weeks (1 week for hydroxyurea) before study treatment. 4. Participant has an active, autoimmune disease that requires immunosuppressive therapy. Exceptions are vitiligo, type I diabetes, certain cases of hypothyroidism and psoriasis, or Hashimoto's thyroiditis on a stable dose of thyroid replacement therapy 5. History of clinically significant heart problems. 6. Current severe, uncontrolled systemic disease including an ongoing, active infection requiring treatment with antibiotics within 2 weeks before study treatment. 7. Participant is currently pregnant or breastfeeding. 8. Participant requires chronic, systemic steroid therapy. 9. Participant is positive for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV, syphilis, West Nile virus, or Chagas disease. 10. Participant has side effects from earlier cancer treatment that have not resolved
