The study is a multicenter, open label in patients with haematological malignancy / myeloproliferative disease (AML, MDS and CMML) and extramedullary disease (EMD) investigating 2 treatment regimens:~Stratum 1 will investigate use of high dose intravenous (IV) bisantrene (RC110) in combination with IV Ara-C for R/R AML with EMD able to tolerate intensive chemotherapy. This includes a run-in stage to confirm the dose of bisantrene (RC110) for induction and in combination with Ara-C for consolidation cycles and an expansion and an expansion stage that will treat additional patients at the confirmed bisantrene dose for induction and in combination with Ara-C consolidation cycles;~Stratum 2 will investigate use lower doses intravenous (IV) bisantrene (RC-110) in combination with fixed-dose oral decitabine/cedazuridine (ASTX727) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for new or R/R AML and HR-MDS/CMML unable to tolerate intensive chemotherapy.~Pre-screening will be conducted to identify patients with EMD diagnosed by standard clinical practice including histology and by fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F FDG-PET/CT) imaging.
This is a two strata Phase 1b study to assess the safety and efficacy of bisantrene (RC110) in combination with a) cytarabine arabinoside (Ara-C) treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with extramedullary disease and able to tolerate intensive chemotherapy; b) in combination with decitabine/cedazuridune (ASTX727) new or relapsed or refractory AML or high risk MDS or CMML with extramedullary disease and unable or not willing to have intensive chemotherapy.
