    Study Title:

    A Phase 1, Open Label Dose Escalation Trial Evaluating the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Clinical Activity of Orally Administered CA-4948 in Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndrome

    Summary:

    his is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1/2a dose escalation and expansion study of orally administered CA-4948 monotherapy and in combination with azacitidine or venetoclax in adult patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or high risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).

    Objective:

    Primary To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) for CA-4948 in patients with AML and high risk MDS based on the safety and tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and PK/PD findings Secondary To characterize the pharmacokinetic
