New treatment option for B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia With t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2); BCR-ABL1

Official title Asciminib as Maintenance Treatment After Cellular Therapies for Adults With Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07040982

What this study is testing

What is Asciminib?

Asciminib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for b acute lymphoblastic leukemia with t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2); bcr-abl1.

Also referred to as ABL 001, ABL-001.

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
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of asciminib as maintenance treatment for adults with Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have undergone cellular therapies such as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. Maintenance treatment is given to help keep cancer from coming back after it has disappeared following initial therapy.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
