Brief Title: Glutaminase Inhibitor CB-839 and Azacitidine in Treating Patients With Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Official Title: Phase Ib/II Study of the Glutaminase Inhibitor CB-839 in Combination With Azacitidine in Patients With Advanced Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Study ID: NCT03047993
Brief Summary: This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 in combination with azacitidine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome that has spread to other places in the body. Glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 and azacitidine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 (CB-839) in combination with azacitidine (AZA) for patients with advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To explore the pharmacokinetics (PK) of CB-839 in combination with AZA. II. To explore the pharmacodynamics (PDn) of CB-839 in combination with AZA. III. To assess overall survival, event-free survival and duration of response of CB-839 in combination with AZA. OUTLINE: Patients receive glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 and azacitidine subcutaneously (SC) or intravenously (IV) over 10-40 minutes on days 1-7. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 28 days.
