Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The ALLG AMLM26 INTERCEPT trial is an adaptive trial allowing the testing of multiple new therapeutic options targeting various AML biomarkers in a staged manner. The Master Protocol outlines the overall study structure (this is detailed in ANZCTR entry ACTRN12621000439842). There will be separate domains for each AML biomarker being investigated. Each domain will have at least one investigational agent. Each investigational agent may be used on its own and/or in combination with other agents. Each option will be a different treatment arm within a domain. Separate Therapy-Specific Protocol Appendices will include treatment-specific information for each investigational agent including all of the treatment arms specific to that investigational agent. Each treatment arm may be targeted to a specific AML biomarker (domain) and/or may be used when patients have no targetable option available. This entry is for the investigational agent MBG453. This will have 2 treatment arms - arm A MBG453 alone and arm B MBG453 in combination with azacitidine. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to one of the two treatment arms.

MBG453 will be administered via intravenous infusion over 30minutes or up to 2hrs if clinically indicated.

Treatment arm A - MBG453 on its own will be given at a dose of 800mg on day 1 of a 28 day cycle by intravenous infusion.
Treatment arm B - MBG453 and azacitidine. Azacitidine 75mg/m2 days 1-7, MBG453 800mg on day 8 by intravenous infusion. Azacitidine will be given subcutaneously (sc) or intravenously (IV) for 7 days from days 1-7 or using the 5-2-2 schedule (administered for 5 consecutive days on days 1-5, followed by a two-day break, then administered for two consecutive days on days 8-9), with MBG453 infusion on day 8 out of a 28-day cycle. Whether azacitidine is given via IT or SC is per the hospital's standard clinical practice.

Both treatment arms will be given for 12 cycles. Patients will attend hospital to receive treatment. If there is poor compliance with protocol procedures patients may be removed from the trial.

If patients have not responded to treatment within 100days of commencing MBG453 alone patients will be able to crossover to receive MBG453 + Azacitidine, if they undergo screening procedures and meet eligibility to go onto this combined treatment arm.

Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
This is a randomised non-comparator trial. Patients are randomly allocated to either MBG453 alone or MBG453 + azacitidine. There is no inclusion in the protocol currently to compare the efficacies of the treatment arms. However this may be re-assessed by the trial management committee after availability of sufficient data from the proof of concept phase prior to completing the expansion phases.
Control group
Uncontrolled

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 327875 0
To determine the response of AML patients in the “Other” domain to their therapy (on study) with investigational agent MBG453 monotherapy or MBG453 + Azacitidine. Response is assessed using bone marrow and/or peripheral blood samples.
Timepoint [1] 327875 0
The primary endpoint in patients enrolled to this drug-specific “Other” domain is MRD response within 100 days of Cycle 1 Day 1. MRD response is defined as a reduction of greater than or equal to 1-log in the molecular marker, and/or MRD negativity, or less than 0.1% aberrant disease by flow cytometry.
Secondary outcome [1] 396826 0
To determine the durability of the response of AML patients to MBG453 +/- azacitidine. Response is assessed using blood and bone marrow samples. The time is measured from the date of the response to the date of progression or death.
Timepoint [1] 396826 0
Relapse-free survival (RFS): Measured from the date of molecular response to the earlier of the date of progression or the date of death without prior progression. MRD response is defined as a reduction of greater than or equal to 1-log in the molecular marker, and/or MRD negativity, or less than 0.1% aberrant disease by flow cytometry. This is measured by bone marrow and blood samples. Your disease will continue to be followed until the study is completed (this may be for longer than 5years).
Secondary outcome [2] 396827 0
To characterize the safety and tolerability of MBG453 and MBG453 + Azacitidine . This is one secondary outcome assessing adverse events that occur on the treatment arms.

Intervention assignment
Other
Other design features
Crossover of patients from the sole agent arm to combination therapy is permitted if there is evidence of “treatment failure” within 100 days after starting MBG453 monotherapy. In this setting, patients who crossover will need to undergo screening procedures and meet eligibility prior to enrolment onto the combination therapy arm.
Crossover does not occur from combination arm to sole agent arm.
Phase
Phase 1 / Phase 2
Type of endpoint/s
Safety/efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
A Bayesian proof-of-concept approach will be adopted for the statistical analysis and reporting of the primary outcome in each treatment arm.
Decisions to terminate or expand accrual in a treatment arm within this drug-specific domain will be based on the observed response rate in the treatment arm.
At any time after the initial run-in phase, efficacy of a treatment arm will be claimed if two criteria are met:
1. Observed response rate greater than or equal to 40%.
2. Posterior probability that the true response rate is greater than or equal to 30% (the futility rate), given the data, is greater than or equal to 0.90 (the level of proof).

Monitoring of the dual criteria in each arm will commence when the first 10 patients allocated to each arm are evaluable for response. If an arm is not closed for futility after the run-in phase, it is envisaged that these criteria will be assessed whenever data become available after about every 5 evaluable patients up to a cap of approximately 30 evaluable patients in an arm.
It is further envisaged that an efficacy claim can be made for a treatment arm (and published) at any time after the run-in period of 10 evaluable patients. We also refer to this claim as a PoC claim.

In addition to early declaration of PoC, the TMC has the discretion to terminate a treatment arm early if there is evidence of futility. The dual criteria for (non-binding) early stopping for futility are:
1. Observed response rate less than 40%.
2. Posterior probability that the true response rate is less than 30%, given the data, is greater than or equal to 0.90 (the level of proof).
Monitoring of the dual criteria for futility will also commence when the first 10 patients in a treatment arm are evaluable for response.

When the true response rate is 46% the probability that PoC is declared is 80% (and the probabilities of a futility stop and an indeterminate outcome are 2.5% and 17.5% respectively) when provision is made to evaluate up to 30 patients in a treatment arm. It is expected that PoC would be declared in the first 3 “looks” at the accumulating response data in an arm and the required sample size would be 17 or less.

When the true response rate is 21% the probability that PoC is declared is 5% i.e. the “false positive rate” is controlled when the true response rate is low.
If recurrent mutations associated with a promising response rate, e.g. greater or equal to 50% in greater or equal to 6 cases, are identified a decision will be made whether to promote the mutation into a targeted domain to enrich for recruitment. After 10 evaluable patients with the mutation have been enrolled, efficacy will be re-assessed. Based on this assessment, a decision will be made whether to expand to at least 20 patients. The trial management committee (TMC) will recommend which mutation biomarkers should be promoted for cohort enrichment and expansion.
