Brief Summary:
GFH009 is a potent and highly selective CDK9 inhibitor. To assess the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of single agent GFH009, this study consists of two dose escalation groups in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (Group 1) and in patients with relapsed/refractory lymphomas (Group 2). The safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of GFH009 in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have relapsed on or are refractory to venetoclax-based regimens will also be assessed (Group 3).

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Group 1. Dose escalation in patients with relapsed/refractory AML Drug: GFH009
In the dose escalation part, the dose levels will be escalated following the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design. In the expansion part, patients will be assigned based on tumor type(s).
Experimental: Group 2. Dose escalation in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL or lymphoma Drug: GFH009
In the dose escalation part, the dose levels will be escalated following the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design. In the expansion part, patients will be assigned based on tumor type(s).
Experimental: AML Patients relapsed/refractory to vene and who will be treated with GFH in combo with vene & aza
Group 3. Patients with relapsed/refractory AML who have relapsed on or are refractory to venetoclax-based regimens
 Drug: GFH009, venetoclax, azacitidine
Group 3. Patients with relapsed/refractory AML who have relapsed on or are refractory to venetoclax-based regimens

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  1. Patients with cytological or histologically confirmed relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies (AML, CLL/SLL and lymphoma)

    • Lymphoma: At least one measurable or evaluable lesion as defined by the Lugano (2014) response criteria. Patients must have received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.
    • AML (only for Group 3): Patients relapsed on or refractory to venetoclax containing regimens.

  2. Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) except for patients with Gilbert's syndrome, who are included if total bilirubin is < 3 × ULN or if direct bilirubin is < 1.5 × ULN.

    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN. For those with hepatic metastases, AST and ALT ≤ 5 × ULN.

  3. Amylase ≤1.5 × ULN
  4. Electrolytes and uric acid level need to be stable judged by investigators for at least 3 days before the first dose of GFH009 (Medical intervention is permitted).
  5. For women of childbearing potential, must consent to use highly effective methods (i.e, total abstinence, placement of an intrauterine device) of contraception during GFH009 treatment and for an additional 90 days after the last administration of study drug, if enrolled in Groups 1 or 2, and 6 months if enrolled in Group 3. Men with a partner of childbearing potential, must consent to use two highly effective methods of contraception during GFH009 treatment and for an additional 90 days after the last administration of study drug.

    • Patients with prior treatment with cardiotoxic agents who have experienced drug induced cardiotoxicities during or after treatment, where cardiotoxic agents include but are not limited to: anthracyclines (doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin, mitoxantrone); trastuzumab and trastuzumab based ADCs; tyrosine kinase inhibitors (sunitinib, imatinib); alkylating agents (cyclophosphamide).
