About this study

In plain language

This study tests TGRX-678 in adults with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), a blood cancer, in its chronic phase. It is for people whose TKI drugs, a type of cancer treatment, did not work or caused side effects they could not tolerate. The study looks at safety, side effects, how the body handles the drug, and whether it may help treat CML.

The purpose of this single-arm, open-label, dose escalation + cohort expansion study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and preliminary efficacy of TGRX-678 in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia patients who had failure with or are intolerant to TKI treatments.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

  • Be at least 18 years old and agree to join after learning about the study.
  • Have CML in the chronic phase, confirmed during screening.
  • Have tried TKI drugs that did not work or caused side effects you could not tolerate.
  • Be able to care for yourself and be out of bed or a chair for at least half the day.
  • Have enough infection-fighting blood cells, hemoglobin that carries oxygen, and platelets that help stop bleeding.
  • Have kidneys and a liver that work well enough, and a normal heart rhythm timing test.
  • Have a negative blood pregnancy test if you can become pregnant.
  • Use highly effective birth control during the study and for 6 months after the last dose if you or your female partner can become pregnant.

Who can't join

  • Have had other cancer treatments before joining, or an experimental drug within 14 days before starting TGRX-678. Other limits cover recent cancer herbs, major surgery, and lasting treatment side effects beyond mild ones, except hair loss.
  • Have had a blood-forming cell transplant less than 60 days before the first dose; have donor cells attacking your body; or take drugs that weaken the immune system, except short-term steroids.
  • Have serious or uncontrolled heart disease, uncontrolled high blood pressure, certain heart rhythm risks, or take drugs linked to a dangerous heart rhythm.
  • Have an active brain or spinal cord disorder, severe bleeding problems not caused by CML, recent lung inflammation, or serious organ problems.
  • Have a history of pancreas inflammation, excessive alcohol use, or high pancreas enzyme levels within 1 year; uncontrolled high blood fats; or trouble absorbing medicines by mouth.
  • Have another cancer diagnosed within 3 years, certain recent infections, HIV, or liver disease, including chronic hepatitis B or C.
  • Have a COVID-19 vaccine within 14 days of joining, or a positive COVID-19 PCR test within 2 weeks before screening.
  • Be pregnant or breastfeeding, be unable or unwilling to follow the birth control rules, or have another condition the study doctor believes makes joining unsafe or unsuitable.
