Can a new combo drug tame childhood leukemia that Won't quit?
NCT ID NCT07770698
First seen Aug 18, 2026 · Last updated Aug 19, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is investigating whether a new drug called sonrotoclax, when combined with other anti-cancer medicines, is safe and effective for children and adolescents with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that has returned or not responded to treatment. The study will test different doses to find the best one and will monitor how the body processes the drug. The goal is to see if the combination can reduce or eliminate leukemia cells.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- sonrotoclax (BGB-11417) combined with azacitidine, inotuzumab ozogamicin, and dexamethasone
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for children with hard-to-treat leukemias, potentially improving remission rates.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with a small number of participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet established. The drug combination may cause significant side effects.

Key Inclusion Criteria Participants must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for participation: 1. Have a performance status of Lansky ≥50 for participants ≤16 years of age or Karnofsky ≥50 for participants \>16 years of age. 2. Have adequate renal function, defined as an estimated or measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥60 mL/min. 3. Have adequate hepatic function, defined as: * Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \<2.5 × the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) * Total bilirubin ≤1.5 × the institutional ULN. 4. Have minimum cardiac function as defined in the study protocol. Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)-Specific Inclusion Criteria 1. Have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is relapsed or refractory (R/R) after ≥2 prior lines of systemic therapy. 2. Have ≥5% blasts in a bone marrow aspirate or biopsy sample, as assessed by morphology. Participants with extramedullary, non-central nervous system (CNS) disease are eligible. B-Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)-Specific Inclusion Criteria 1. Have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is R/R after ≥2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including at least 1 line of blinatumomab-based therapy. 2. Have ≥5% blasts in a bone marrow aspirate or biopsy sample, as assessed by morphology. 3. Have leukemic blasts expressing cluster of differentiation 22 (CD22) on the cell surface, as assessed by flow cytometry of a bone marrow aspirate. Key Exclusion Criteria Participants will be excluded from participation if any of the following apply: 1. Have central nervous system (CNS) 2 or CNS 3 disease at screening. 2. Have toxicity from prior anticancer therapy that has not recovered to ≤Grade 1, as defined by the applicable toxicity grading criteria. 3. Have a history of prior allogeneic stem cell transplantation \<90 days from enrollment or if if ≥ 90 days from enrollment, with active graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), or requiring immunosuppressive drugs for treatment of GVHD, or have taken calcineurin inhibitors within 4 weeks prior to consent. AML-Specific Exclusion Criteria 1. Have a diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). 2. Have AML with fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD), as determined by local assessment. ALL-Specific Exclusion Criteria 1. Have Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) ALL with a breakpoint cluster region::Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1 (BCR::ABL1) fusion. 2. Have received prior therapy with a B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) inhibitor. Note: Other eligibility criteria may apply.
