Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug for people with CLL/SLL. The drug is designed to kill cancer cells by targeting a protein called PKC-beta.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), who meet specific medical guidelines and need treatment. People can't join if they've had major surgery recently, have transformed CLL/SLL, uncontrolled autoimmune issues, or used certain therapies within the last two weeks.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests MS-553's safety and effectiveness in different doses for patients with CLL/SLL. It will be combined with other drugs like venetoclax, Rituximab, obinutuzumab, and acalabrutinib to see how well it works.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of MS-553 may include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea. The other medications used can also cause immune system reactions, infections due to low blood cell counts, bleeding problems and heart rhythm changes.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of MS-553 in patients with CLL/SLL whose disease relapsed after or was refractory to at least one prior therapy.
Secondary outcome measures
To evaluate the clinical activity (i.e. the overall response rate (ORR) of MS-553 in patients with CLL/SLL whose disease relapsed after or was refractory to at least one prior therapy.
Other outcome measures
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Evaluate pharmacogenomic biomarkers in patients with CLL/SLL treated with MS-553 to compare germline DNA with tumor DNA via changes in sequence analysis
Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of MS-553
