Evaluating APG-115 and APG-2575 for T-Prolymphocytic Leukemia and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Official title: A Phase IIa Study Evaluating the Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Efficacy of APG-115 as a Single Agent or in Combination With APG-2575 in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory T-Cell Prolymphocytic Leukemia (R/R T-PLL) or Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).

Run by Ascentage Pharma Group Inc. · NCT04496349 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new treatment using two drugs, APG-115 and APG-2575, to see if they can help people with relapsed or hard-to-treat T-Prolymphocytic Leukemia and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma feel better and improve their health.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with relapsed or refractory T-PLL or NHL who have received at least one prior therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have not had chemotherapy or antibody therapy for at least 7 days prior to starting the treatment may not benefit from this study.

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

What this trial studies

This phase IIa clinical trial aims to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of APG-115, both as a standalone treatment and in combination with APG-2575, for patients with relapsed or refractory T-Prolymphocytic Leukemia (T-PLL) and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL). The study focuses on disrupting the interaction between the MDM2 oncoprotein and the tumor suppressor P53, which is expected to enhance P53 and P21 protein expression, leading to increased apoptosis in cancer cells. Participants will be monitored for safety and treatment response across multiple centers.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with difficult-to-treat T-PLL and NHL.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies targeting the MDM2-P53 interaction have shown promise, indicating potential for success with this approach.
