Recruiting PHASE1 Acute Leukemia

New treatment option for Acute Leukemia

Official title BY002 IIT Study in R/R Acute Leukemia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07270770

What this study is testing

What is BY002?

BY002 is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for acute leukemia.

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 is a single-center, open-label, investigator-initiated phase 1 study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary efficacy of the menin inhibitor BY002 in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia. Eligible subjects include adult patients (≥18 years) with AML, ALL, or MPAL, excluding APL, who carry KMT2A rearrangement or NPM1 mutation and have no better treatment options.

Who can take part

Ages 16 and older

You may be able to join if
