BN104 maintenance after allogeneic stem cell transplant for acute leukemia

Official title: Phase 2 Trial of Menin Inhibitor BN104 as Post Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Maintenance in Patients With Acute Leukemia

Run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University · NCT07101497 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests whether taking the oral menin inhibitor BN104 can reduce relapse in people with acute leukemia who have specific genetic changes and are 1–6 months after an allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are people aged 12 or older (≥35 kg) with AML, ALL, or ambiguous acute leukemia in complete hematologic remission who harbor menin‑dependent alterations (for example KMT2A rearrangements, NUP98 rearrangements, or NPM1 mutation without FLT3 co‑mutation), are 30–180 days post allogeneic HSCT with full donor chimerism and adequate blood counts.

Probably not a fit

Patients without the specified menin‑dependent genetic alterations, those not in complete remission, those who are too early (<30 days) or too late (>180 days) after transplant, or those without adequate blood count recovery are unlikely to be eligible or to benefit.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is an open‑label, single‑arm Phase 2 trial giving BN104 orally at 100–200 mg twice daily in 28‑day cycles for up to 24–36 cycles to people with acute myeloid, lymphoblastic, or ambiguous leukemia who harbor menin‑dependent genetic alterations. Eligible participants are screened and begin therapy 30–180 days after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, must be in complete hematologic remission with recovered counts and full donor chimerism. The primary endpoint is the two‑year relapse‑free survival rate from enrollment; secondary endpoints include overall survival, event‑free survival, cumulative relapse incidence, non‑relapse mortality, GVHD incidence, and safety. The study aims to determine whether BN104 can extend remission duration when used as post‑transplant maintenance in this high‑risk molecular subgroup.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, BN104 could lower the chance of relapse and extend relapse‑free survival after allo‑HSCT for patients with menin‑dependent genetic alterations.

How similar studies have gone: Other menin inhibitors have shown promising remission activity in relapsed or refractory cases with KMT2A fusions, but using BN104 specifically as post‑HSCT maintenance is a novel approach that has not been proven yet.
