Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, CM4620, to see if it's safe and effective in reducing the severity of pancreatitis in children.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults under 22 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma who are undergoing treatment. They must have recent pancreatitis linked to asparaginase therapy, no history of egg allergy or sensitivity to CM4620 components, normal kidney and liver function tests, no other investigational drugs taken in the last week, no prior pancreatitis episodes, a safe QTc interval on ECG, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing CM4620's safety and ability to reduce the severity of pancreatitis caused by asparaginase in young patients. It will look at what doses are safe (phase I) and how well it works to prevent serious complications like pseudocysts or necrotizing pancreatitis (phase II).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of CM4620 aren't listed here, common ones may include allergic reactions due to egg-derived components in the drug formulation. The trial will monitor for any dose-limiting toxicities.
