Research and Clinical Trials on Pediatric CML

We are aware of the following current ongoing studies in pediatric CML:

Molecular signature to predict response to TKI

CML pediatric ITK response according to molecular identification at diagnosis (CML Piramid)

This observational study investigates retrospectively on DNA at diagnosis of 88 CP-CML children the mutation status of 64 genes by next generation sequencing and to see if there is an association with the response to TKI treatment. More information

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05605379

Sponsor: University Hospital, Bordeaux, stephanie.dulucq@chu-bordeaux.fr

Status: Recruiting (estimated enrollment: 88 participants)

Location (Centres): France (1)

Asciminib

Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Asciminib in Pediatric Patients With Ph+ CML-CP

This Phase II, open-label, single-arm study evaluates the safety and efficacy of asciminib in children aged 1 to under 18 years with Philadelphia chromosome–positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (Ph+ CML-CP), including both newly diagnosed and previously treated patients, with or without the T315I mutation. It assesses weight-based pediatric or adult formulations over long-term follow-up to better understand treatment outcomes, safety, and effects on growth and development. More Information

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT07354074

Sponsor: Novartis Pharmaceuticals, novartis.email@novartis.com

Status: Not yet recruiting (estimated enrollment: 50 participants)

Location (Centres): Location data not yet available

Study to Determine the Dose and Safety of Asciminib in Pediatric Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

The aim of this study is to support development of asciminib in the pediatric population (1 to <18 years) previously treated with one or more TKIs. Full extrapolation of the efficacy of asciminib from adult to pediatric patients will be conducted. Full extrapolation is based on the concept that CML in the pediatric population has the same pathogenesis, similar clinical characteristics and progression pattern as in adults. More Information

Bosutinib

A phase I/II study of bosutinib in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed chronic phase or resistant/intolerant Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia

Phase 1-2, multicenter, international, single-arm, open-label study designed to identify a recommended dose of bosutinib administered orally once daily in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed chronic phase Ph+ CML (ND CML) and pediatric patients with Ph+CML who have received at least one prior TKI therapy (R/I CML), to preliminary estimate the safety and tolerability and efficacy, and to evaluate the PK of bosutinib in this patient population.

Ponatinib

An open-label, single-arm, phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of ponatinib for the treatment of recurrent or refractory leukemias or solid tumors in pediatric patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of ponatinib in children aged 1 to < 18 years with advanced leukemias, lymphomas, and solid tumors. More information

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03934372

Sponsor: Incyte Biosciences International, globalmedinfo@incyte.com

Status: Recruiting (estimated enrollment: 70 participants)

Location (Centres): Belgium (1), France (4), Italy (9), Netherlands (1), Spain (4), Sweden (2), United Kingdom (4)

Treatment-Free Remission

Treatment-free remission (TFR) in CML Patients (CML-CP) Study

This multicenter, prospective observational registry study investigates real-world treatment strategies to increase deep molecular response (DMR) rates in patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP), with the goal of improving the likelihood of achieving treatment-free remission (TFR). It follows patients for at least five years to assess molecular responses during therapy and the 2-year TFR rate after discontinuation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. More information

ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05440747

Sponsor: Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, gdph_wjy21@gd.gov.cn

Status: Not yet recruiting (estimated enrollment: 203 participants)

Location (Centres): Location data not yet available

Stopping tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) to assess treatment-free remission (TFR) in pediatric chronic myeloid leukemia chronic-phase (CML-CP)

The purpose of this study is to determine the 2-year treatment free remission (TFR) rate of children, adolescents, and young adults with chronic myeloid leukemia - chronic phase (CML-CP) following discontinuation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and to estimate the re-induction rate and maintenance of molecular remission (BCR-ABL1 =< 0.1%) at 1 year after restarting TKI for children, adolescents, and young adults.
