Sponsor: Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Conditions: Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, Philadelphia Chromosome Positive
Interventions: Asciminib single agent
Countries: United States, Australia, Canada, China, France, Italy, Japan, Netherlands
The aim of this study is to support development of asciminib in the pediatric population (1 to \< 18 years) with Ph+ CML-CP. The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of asciminib in pediatric formulation (weigh-based dose, fed state) or adult formulation (fasted) in newly diagnosed and resistant or intolerant Ph+ CML-CP with or without T315I mutation.
Sex: ALL
Age: 1 Year to 18 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Study type: INTERVENTIONAL
Key Inclusion Criteria:
Participants eligible for inclusion in this study must meet all of the following criteria:
1. Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the study.
2. Male or female participants 1 and \< 18 years of age at study enrollment
3. Diagnosis of CML-CP (Apperley et al 2025) with cytogenetic confirmation of Philadelphia positive (Ph+) chromosome
4. For participants with CML-CP newly diagnosed within 3 months of screening OR 5 For participants with CML - CP with high risk of developing resistance or intolerance to previous TKI:
1. Unfavourable response to TKI is defined following the Apperley et al 2025 guidelines as:
* At three months after the initiation of therapy: BCR::ABL1 ratio \> 10% IS (if confirmed within 1-3 months)
* At six months after the initiation of therapy: BCR::ABL1 ratio \> 10% IS
* At twelve months after initiation of therapy: BCR::ABL1 ratio \> 1% IS
* At any time loss of previous response
* At any time emergent resistant BCR::ABL1 mutations or high-risk ACA from prior TKI treatment as per local test results
2. Intolerance to TKI is defined as:
* Non-hematologic intolerance: participants with grade 3 or 4 toxicity while on therapy (in which case the patient is eligible whether or not there was a dose reduction); or with persistent grade 2 toxicity unresponsive to optimal management including dose adjustments (unless dose reduction is not considered in the best interest of the patient if response is already suboptimal)
* Hematologic intolerance: participants with grade 3 or 4 toxicity (absolute neutrophil count \[ANC\] or platelets) while on therapy that is recurrent after dose reduction to the lowest doses of the TKI
6\. Evidence of typical BCR::ABL1 transcript \[e14a2 and/or e13a2\] at the time of screening which are amenable to standardized RQ-PCR quantification.
7\. Performance status: Karnofsky ≥ 50% for participants ≥ 16 years of age, and Lansky ≥ 50 for participants \< 16 years of age at the time of screening.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
1. Known second chronic phase (CP) of CML after previous progression to Accelerated Phase (AP)/Blast Phase (BP).
2. Previous treatment with a hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.
3. Patient planned to undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
4. Known presence of a BCR::ABL1 mutation with known resistance to study treatment in accordance with the most recent public version of international CML clinical guidelines (e.g. NCCN CML treatment guidelines v 1.2026 and Apperley et al 2025) any time prior to study entry
