About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-0482. There are 2 parts of this study. Part 1 is a dose escalation which will follow an accelerated titration design (ATD) for participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML or CMML. Part 2 is a dose expansion for participants with R/R AML.

The 5 groups in the trial

  • MK-0482 7.5 mg Q3WTreatment being tested

    Participants will receive 7.5 mg of MK-0482 via intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (every 3 weeks \[Q3W\]) for up to 35 cycles (approximately 24 months).

    Treatment: MK-0482

  • MK-0482 25 mg Q3WTreatment being tested

    Participants will receive 25 mg of MK-0482 via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (Q3W) for up to 35 cycles (approximately 24 months).

    Treatment: MK-0482

  • MK-0482 75 mg Q3WTreatment being tested

    Participants will receive 75 mg of MK-0482 via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (Q3W) for up to 35 cycles (approximately 24 months).

    Treatment: MK-0482

  • MK-0482 225 mg Q3WTreatment being tested

    Participants will receive 225 mg of MK-0482 via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (Q3W) for up to 35 cycles (approximately 24 months).

    Treatment: MK-0482

  • MK-0482 750 mg Q3WTreatment being tested

    Participants will receive 750 mg of MK-0482 via IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (Q3W) for up to 35 cycles (approximately 24 months).

    Treatment: MK-0482
