ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04215809

What this study is testing

What is Lisaftoclax?

Lisaftoclax is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily, being studied as a potential treatment for cll/sll.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Assess the safety and tolerability, identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) / recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of lisaftoclax.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study

  • Females of childbearing potential (i.e., not postmenopausal for at least 2 years or surgically sterile) must have negative results for pregnancy test performed:
  • At screening on a serum sample obtained within 14 days prior to the first lisaftoclax administration;
  • Prior to dosing on a urine sample obtained on the first day of lisaftoclax administration, if it has been \>7 days since obtaining the serum pregnancy test results.
  • Females of childbearing potential and non-sterile males must practice at least one of the following methods of birth control with partner(s) throughout the study and for 90 days after discontinuing lisaftoclax:
  • Total abstinence from sexual intercourse as the preferred lifestyle of the patient; periodic abstinence is not acceptable;
