Study summary

The purpose of this single-arm, open-label, dose escalation + cohort expansion study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and preliminary efficacy of TGRX-678 in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia patients who had failure with or are intolerant to TKI treatments.

Read the detailed description

This is the first trial with TGRX-678 conducted to US patients which aims to evaluate the safety profile and preliminary efficacy profile in advanced or refractory CML patients with previous failure or intolerance to TKI treatments. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of TGRX-678, including determination of the recommended dose for expansion (RDE) and other safety measures of the investigational drug, such as adverse events and abnormal clinical outcomes. Preliminary efficacy profile of TGRX-678 is evaluated based on the changes in peripheral blood cells and disease-associated cytogenetic and molecular markers. Recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) will be determined at end of the study considering safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and efficacy data.

Started Jul 2024 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Dec 2027, 41 months after the start.

Of 57 phase 1 interventional studies under Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive, half reached primary completion within 61 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 41 and three quarters within 104. This study's planned 41 months is below that.

Since we started tracking on Sep 25, 2026, the dates moved once, on Oct 20, 2026: primary completion Mar 2027 → Dec 2027 and completion Jun 2027 → Feb 2028.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
