JSP191 for MDS/AML
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called JSP191 (also known as AMG 191) to determine its safety and tolerability for individuals with certain blood conditions, specifically Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The treatment combines with low-dose radiation and a medication called fludarabine before patients receive a stem cell transplant. The trial seeks participants with these conditions who plan to undergo a blood stem cell transplant from a matched donor. Participants should not have active infections or other cancers. As a Phase 1 trial, the research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the opportunity to be among the first to receive this new treatment.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. However, you cannot participate if you are receiving any other investigational agents.
Is there any evidence suggesting that JSP191 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that JSP191 is generally safe and well-tolerated. In studies involving patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML), no severe side effects were directly linked to the treatment. Specifically, tests with 24 patients revealed that the treatment did not cause any major health problems. This suggests JSP191 is safe for use with these conditions.12345
Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising?
Researchers are excited about JSP191 because it offers a novel approach to treating MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndromes) and AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) by targeting the CD117 receptor, a key player in stem cell survival and proliferation. Unlike traditional chemotherapy or radiation, which can harm healthy cells, JSP191's precision in targeting CD117 aims to minimize damage to non-cancerous cells. This targeted mechanism could potentially improve the safety and effectiveness of stem cell transplants, offering new hope for patients who struggle with the limitations of current treatments.
What evidence suggests that JSP191 might be an effective treatment for MDS or AML?
Research has shown that JSP191 is a promising treatment for patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). In this trial, participants will receive JSP191 as part of the conditioning regimen before a blood stem cell transplant. Early results from previous studies suggest that JSP191, when combined with low-dose radiation and fludarabine, is safe and generally well-tolerated. In a study involving 24 patients, no severe side effects related to the treatment were reported. JSP191 demonstrated the ability to remove minimal residual disease (MRD), which are leftover cancer cells, in older adults preparing for stem cell transplants. This suggests JSP191 may better prepare patients' bodies for successful transplants. Overall, evidence indicates JSP191 could effectively prepare patients before they receive a stem cell transplant.12356
