Study Description

DSP-5336-101 is a phase 1/2 open-label, dose escalation, dose expansion study in which the safety, PK, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of orally administered DSP-5336 will be evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory AML, ALL, or acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage, and in selected sites and regions, in adult patients with high-risk relapsed or refractory MDS or relapsed MM.

Additionally, the safety and clinical activity of orally administered DSP-5336 will be evaluated in combination with Standard-of-Care (SOC) AML treatments including: (a) the SOC nonintensive regimen (venetoclax + azacitidine) or (b) the SOC intensive regimen (cytarabine + daunorubicin induction, 7+3) in patients with newly diagnosed AML who have MLLr or NPM1m.
