Bosutinib in pediatric CML patients
EU CTIS ID: 2023-504311-32-00
What this study is testing
Phase 1: - To determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of bosutinib for R/I (RP2DR/I) and ND chronic phase (RP2DND) pediatric patients with CML, based on the pharmacokinetic, safety and tolerability profile of bosutinib observed at various dose levels in pediatric patients with CML who are resistant or intolerant to prior TKI therapy. Phase 2: - To assess the PK of bosutinib at the RP2DND and RP2DR/I in pediatric patients with ND or R/I Ph + CML. - To assess the population PK of bosutinib. - To assess the pooled safety and tolerability profile (based on AEs) of bosutinib in pediatric patients with ND and R/I Ph+ CML.

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Phase 1 and Phase 2 (R/I patients): Cytogenetic and molecular diagnosis of Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML at either time of initial CML diagnosis or at time of study screening: 1. Cytogenetics must be performed by chromosome banding analysis (CBA) of bone marrow cell metaphases, and requires at least 20 metaphases. 2. Only if dividing marrow cells cannot be obtained, or if there is an insufficient number of metaphases, CBA can be substituted by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (I- FISH) of bone marrow or peripheral blood cells, using dual color dual fusion probes, that allow the detection of BCR-ABL+ nuclei; at least 200 nuclei should be counted. 3. Qualitative RT-PCR should be performed on RNA extracted from freshly collected bone marrow or peripheral blood cells. It identifies the transcript type, either e14a2 or 13a2 (also known as b3a2 and b2a2), or much more rarely e19a2, or e1a2, indicating the BCR- ABL protein weight (P210, rarely P230 or P190).
- Phase 1 and Phase 2 (R/I patients): Serum/urine pregnancy test (for all girls ≥ age of menarche) negative at screening.
- Phase 1 and Phase 2 (R/I patients): Male and female patients of childbearing potential and at risk for pregnancy must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception throughout the study and for at least 30 days after the last dose of assigned treatment. A patient is of childbearing potential if, in the opinion of the Investigator, he/she is biologically capable of having children and is sexually active.

- Phase 2 (Newly Diagnosed CML patients): Cytogenetic and molecular diagnosis of Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML at either time of initial CML diagnosis or at time of study screening: 1. Cytogenetics must be performed by chromosome banding analysis (CBA) of bone marrow cell metaphases, and requires at least 20 metaphases. 2.
