Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug for people with leukemia who haven't responded to other treatments. The drug will be given in increasing doses to see what effect it has.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adolescents and adults at least 12 years old with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), or mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). Participants must weigh over 40 Kg, have specific blood test results within certain limits, be able to swallow pills, and not be pregnant. They should also agree to use double barrier contraception methods.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests MRX-2843, an oral medication given in continuous cycles of 28 days to see its safety and how the body processes it. It's a Phase I trial where doses increase gradually among groups of patients until they find the highest dose that doesn't cause unacceptable side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not specified here but generally may include typical reactions seen with cancer treatments such as nausea, fatigue, liver function changes, blood count variations which could lead to increased risk of infections or bleeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is the enrollment window for this study still open?

"This clinical trial is actively recruiting participants, as indicated by its listing on the clinicaltrials.gov site. The posting date of April 1st 2022 and most recent update from July 6th are also noted there."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA given its blessing for MRX-2843 to be utilized in medical treatments?

"MRX-2843 received the lowest safety rating, 1 out of 3, as this is a Phase 1 trial. This indicates that there is only minimal data so far in terms of efficacy and safety."

Answered by AI

What is the ceiling of participants for this research endeavor?

"Affirmative. The information on clinicaltrials.gov suggests that this medical trial is actively recruiting patients - it was initially posted on April 1st 2022 and last updated on July 6th 2022. Approximately 50 individuals must be sourced from 3 distinct sites for the study to reach completion."
