Quick Navigation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is a Phase 1b, multicenter, open-label, PK, and safety study of multiple oral doses of oral decitabine and cedazuridine (formerly known as ASTX727) as a fixed-dose combination of decitabine 35 milligrams (mg) and cedazuridine 100 mg in cancer participants with severe renal impairment and cancer participants with normal renal function as matched control participants. Adult participants with acute myeloid lymphoma (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or solid tumors who are candidates to receive oral decitabine and cedazuridine will be enrolled in this study. Study duration per participant is approximately up to 8 weeks.

A solid tumor that is metastatic or unresectable and for which standard life-prolonging measures are not available. 2. AML or MDS. 3.

Platelet count ≥25,000/per microliter (μL); 4. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥100 cells/μL. * For participants with only hematologic malignancies other than AML or MDS, or solid tumors: 1. Platelet count ≥100,000/μL; 2. ANC ≥1000 cells/μL. * ECOG performance status of 0 to 2. * Adequate hepatic function defined as: 1. Total or direct bilirubin ≤1.5X upper limit of normal (ULN); 2.

Participants without renal impairment (Group B): ≥80 mL/min/1.73m\^²; 2. Participants with severe renal impairment (Group A): \<30 mL/min/1.73m\^², not requiring dialysis; 3. CLcr must be stable with \<30% deviation allowed from Screening to Baseline (Day -1). Participants shifting outside the prospected renal function category (normal renal function or severe renal function) at Baseline need to be agreed by Taiho medical expert whether they are allowed to remain in the original category that was assessed at Screening. * No major surgery within 30 days of first administration of oral decitabine and cedazuridine. * Life expectancy of at least 3 months. * Women of childbearing potential (according to recommendations of the Clinical Trial Facilitation Group) must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening. * Women of childbearing potential must agree to practice 1 highly effective contraceptive measure of birth control with low user dependency and must agree not to become pregnant for 6 months after completing treatment. * Male participants with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to use a male condom and advise his partner to practice 1 highly effective contraceptive measure of birth control (user dependent or with low user dependency) and must agree not to father a child while receiving treatment with oral decitabine and cedazuridine for at least 3 months after completing treatment.	* Treatment with azacitidine or decitabine within 4 weeks before Screening.

Hematopoietic growth factors will not be routinely used unless cleared by Taiho medical expert. * Administration of live (attenuated) vaccines within 4 weeks before the first administration of oral decitabine and cedazuridine until after the follow-up visit. Other vaccines, e.g., inactivated or ribonucleic acid (RNA)-based, may be administered but should not occur from 7 days before first administration of oral decitabine and cedazuridine until after the follow-up visit. * High medical risk because of other conditions such as uncontrolled systemic diseases, active uncontrolled infections, or comorbidities that may put the participants at risk of not being able to complete at least 2 cycles of treatment. * Conditions which likely promote delayed ventricular repolarization (QT prolongation): 1. Corrected QT interval (QTc) using Fridericia correction (QTcF) at Screening or Day -1 \>450 milliseconds (ms) for males and \>470 ms for females 2.

Participants with treated CNS metastases are eligible provided they have been clinically stable for at least 4 weeks before screening. * Positive nasopharyngeal test for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) at Day -1.
