Purpose

This study will examine the effect intravenously administered rigosertib has on the relationship between bone marrow blasts response and overall survival in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients who have 5-30% bone marrow blasts and who progressed on or after treatment with azacitidine or decitabine.

Official Title

Phase IIIB, Open-label, Multi-Center Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Rigosertib Administered as 72-hour Continuous Intravenous Infusions in Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndrome With Excess Blasts Progressing On or After Azacitidine or Decitabine

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study: Older than 18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study: All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No
Inclusion Criteria:
  1. - Diagnosis of MDS confirmed within 6 weeks prior to Screening according to WHO criteria or French-American-British (FAB) classification. - MDS classified as follows, according to WHO criteria and FAB classification: - RAEB-1 (5% to 9% BM blasts) - RAEB-2 (10% to 19% BM blasts) - CMML (10% to 20% BM blasts) and white blood cells (WBC) < 13,000/μL - RAEB-t (20% to 30% BM blasts), meeting the following criteria: WBC < 25,000/μL at study entry; or, Stable White Blood Cell (WBC) at least 4 weeks prior to Screening and not requiring intervention for WBC control with hydroxyurea, chemotherapy, or leukopheresis. - At least one cytopenia (Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) < 1800/μL or Platelet (PLT) count < 100,000/μL or hemoglobin (Hgb) < 10 g/dL). - Progression (according to 2006 IWG criteria) at any time after initiation of subcutaneous or intravenous azacitidine or decitabine treatment per labeling during the past 2 years, defined as follows: - For patients with ˂ 5% BMBL, ≥ 50% increase in BMBL to ˃ 5% BMBL - For patients with 5-10% BMBL, ≥ 50% increase in BMBL to ˃ 10% BMBL - For patients with 10-20% BMBL, ≥ 50% increase in BMBL to ˃ 20% BMBL - For patients with 20-30% BMBL, ≥ 50% increase in BMBL to ˃ 30% BMBL - Any of the following: ≥ 50% decrease from maximum remission/response levels in granulocytes or PLT; Decrease in Hgb concentration by ≥ 2 g/dL; or, Transfusion dependence, defined as administration of at least 4 RBC units in the past 8 weeks before Screening (patients must have Hgb values ˂ 9 g/dL prior to transfusion to be considered), in the absence of another explanation. - Has failed to respond to, relapsed following, not eligible, or opted not to participate in bone marrow transplantation. - Off all other treatments for MDS for at least 4 weeks, except for azacitidine or decitabine. Filgrastim (G-CSF) and erythropoietin are allowed before and during the study as clinically indicated. - No medical need for induction chemotherapy. - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1 or 2. - Willing to adhere to the prohibitions and restrictions specified in this protocol. - Patient must signed an informed consent form.
Exclusion Criteria:
  1. - Previous participation in a clinical study of IV or oral rigosertib. - Anemia due to factors other than MDS (including hemolysis or gastrointestinal [GI] bleeding) unless stabilized for 1 week after RBC transfusion. - Any active malignancy within the past year, except basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast. - Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including. - Active infection not adequately responding to appropriate therapy. - Total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 mg/dL not related to hemolysis or Gilbert's disease. - ALT/AST ≥ 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN). - Serum creatinine ≥ 2.0 mg/dL. - Ascites requiring active medical management including paracentesis, or hyponatremia (defined as serum sodium value of <130 mEq/L). - Female patients who are pregnant or lactating. - Patients who are unwilling to follow strict contraception requirements. - Female patients with reproductive potential who do not have a negative urine beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (βHCG) pregnancy test at Screening. - Major surgery without full recovery or major surgery within 3 weeks of Baseline/Cycle 1 Day 1 visit. - Uncontrolled hypertension (defined as a systolic pressure ≥160 mmHg and/or a diastolic pressure ≥ 110 mmHg). - New onset seizures (within 3 months prior to Baseline) or poorly controlled seizures. - Any other concurrent investigational agent or chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy. - Prior treatment with low-dose cytarabine during the past 2 years. - Investigational therapy within 4 weeks of Baseline/Day 1 visit. - Psychiatric illness or social situation that would limit the patient's ability to tolerate and/or comply with study requirements.
