About This Trial

Acute myeloid leukemia is a malignant disorder characterized by the rapid, uncontrolled proliferation of malignant clonal hematopoietic stem cells that accumulate as immature, undifferentiated cells (blasts) in the bone marrow and circulation. APG-115 is a potent and orally active small-molecule MDM2 inhibitor, it binds to MDM2 protein and shows potent cell growth inhibitory activity in vitro with low nanomolar potencies in a subset of human cancer cell lines. APG-115 has demonstrated its strong antitumor activities with either daily or less frequent dosing-schedules in the acute leukemia xenograft models. This is a phase 1b, open-label, three-stages study that will initially evaluate the safety and PK/PD profile of APG-115 as a single agent, followed by a combination of APG-115 + azacytidine or cytarabine in R/R AML or MDS subjects. Patients will continue treatment for maximally 6 cycles or until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity is observed or administrative discontinuation whichever occurs first. Patients who continue to be benefit after 6 cycles' treatment will receive additional cycles of treatment until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity is observed or administrative discontinuation. (As long as it is proven safe).

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Patients with a diagnosis of diagnosed by tissue sample (biopsy-confirmed) relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia by WHO classification or relapsed/progressed high/very high risk MDS (score≥4.5) according to IPSS-R risk stratification 2. Age \>/= 18 years. 3. your organs (liver, kidneys, etc.) are working well enough based on blood tests 4. Subject must have a projected expected to live at least 12 weeks. 5. You should be able to carry out daily activities with 0 level of ability (ECOG 0)-1. 6. Patient must have the ability to understand the requirements of the study and signed willing to sign a consent form. A signed willing to sign a consent form by the patient or his legally authorized representative is required prior to their enrollment on the protocol. 7. Subject has a white blood cell count\< 50 × 109/L. Note: Hydroxyurea is permitted to meet this criterion. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Subject has acute promyelocytic leukemia. 2. Patients must not have had leukemia biotherapy 4 weeks prior to starting investigational drug, or less than 5 half-lives small molecular targeted drug therapy, or 28 days any anti-cancer therapy (whichever is longer) 3. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to active uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (NYHA Class III or IV), unstable angina pectoris, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. 4. Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic/antifungal medication, known clinically active hepatitis B or C, or HIV infection. 5. Participants who have received allogeneic HSCT, or autologous HSCT within 12 months. 6. Patients with active, uncontrolled CNS leukemia will not be eligible. 7. Any prior systemic MDM2-p53 inhibitor treatment ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
