Evaluating Onureg in Patients with Liver Impairment and Myeloid Malignancies

A Phase 1, Multicenter, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics of CC-486 (Onureg®) in Subjects With Moderate or Severe Hepatic Impairment Compared With Normal Hepatic Function in Adult Subjects With Myeloid Malignancies

Phase 1 Interventional Bristol-Myers Squibb · NCT05209295

What this trial studies

This study evaluates how moderate or severe liver impairment affects the drug levels and safety of oral azacitidine (Onureg) in patients with myeloid malignancies. Participants will include those diagnosed with specific types of blood cancers and varying degrees of liver function. The study aims to determine the tolerability of the medication in this unique patient population, which may have different responses due to their liver condition.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals with myeloid malignancies and moderate to severe hepatic impairment.

Not a fit: Patients with stable liver function or those who have received recent chemotherapy or radiotherapy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide insights into safe treatment options for patients with liver impairment who have myeloid malignancies.

How similar studies have performed: While studies on azacitidine exist, this specific evaluation in patients with hepatic impairment is novel and has not been extensively tested.
