This is a first-in-human Phase I, open-label dose-escalation study of oral AC676 given alone in 28-day cycles. It enrolls adults with relapsed or refractory B‑cell malignancies to identify a recommended Phase II dose and assess safety, drug levels in the body, and early signs of anti-cancer activity. The study monitors side effects and laboratory safety over about 18 months, with earlier pharmacokinetic sampling.

What it is studying. The study is testing AC676, an investigational orally taken BTK degrader, given as a single agent. It aims to find the dose that can be given safely (maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended Phase II dose), to describe side effects and pharmacokinetics, and to look for early anti‑malignancy effects in people with relapsed/refractory B‑cell cancers.

What the researchers hope to learn. Scientific goals: identify the recommended Phase II dose and maximum tolerated dose of AC676; describe its safety and treatment‑emergent adverse events; measure pharmacokinetic parameters (AUC, Cmax, tmax, t1/2); and collect preliminary measures of anti‑malignancy activity (objective response rate, duration of response, time to response, disease control rate, and progression‑free survival).

Study description and what participation involves

The study's detailed description, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Detailed description from the registry

AC676-001 is a Phase I, first-in-human, open-label, multi-center dose-escalation study of AC676 given as a single agent. AC676 is an investigational medicinal product that is an orally bioavailable BTK degrader for the treatment of B-cell malignancies.

AI summaryWhat participation may involve, in plain languageShow ▾Hide ▴

AI-written from the registry record, not the study's own wording. May contain errors or omissions. Check the registry text on this page and the original record ↗ before acting on it.

Participants are assigned a dose of AC676 and take the drug by mouth in 28‑day treatment cycles as part of a dose‑escalation plan. They will make regular clinic visits for safety checks and monitoring, including laboratory tests and pharmacokinetic blood testing to measure drug levels, and scheduled assessments to check disease response. The study focuses on tracking dose‑limiting toxicities, adverse events, and laboratory changes; some safety and response assessments continue for many weeks to months (PK testing up to about 20 weeks and other outcomes observed up to about 18 months).

How the study is structured. Participants receive assigned doses of oral AC676 in 28‑day treatment cycles in a sequential dose‑escalation plan (no placebo, open‑label). The first cycle is closely evaluated for dose‑limiting toxicities (cycle 1 day 1 to day 28); safety monitoring, blood sampling for pharmacokinetics, and tumor/clinical assessments continue over the planned study period (safety outcomes ~18 months; some PK measures up to ~20 weeks).

Questions you could ask

These questions are suggestions for a conversation with the study team or your own clinician, not advice.

  • This is an early-phase study, mainly about safety and dose. What is already known about this treatment?
  • The listed sites are in United States. Is any of them reachable for me, and does the study help with travel?
  • Which of the eligibility criteria would need to be checked with tests before I could join?

Terms used on this page · explanations by MedicalUpdates.ai

Relapsed/Refractory
A condition that has not responded to a treatment. 'Relapsed' means it responded and then came back; 'refractory' means it did not respond in the first place.
pharmacokinetics
How the body absorbs, distributes, breaks down and removes a drug. It is studied by measuring drug levels or related substances at set times after a dose.
informed consent form
The process of explaining a study, including its risks and what participation involves, so that a person can decide freely whether to take part. Consent is usually documented in writing, and a participant can choose to leave the study later.
histologically confirmed
Removal of a small piece of tissue so it can be examined under a microscope. 'Biopsy-proven' or 'histologically confirmed' means the diagnosis was confirmed by examining tissue under a microscope.
5 half-lives
The time it takes for the amount of a drug in the body to fall by half. 'Five half-lives' is often used as the point at which a previous drug has essentially left the body.
Chimeric antigen receptor
A treatment in which a person's own immune cells (T cells) are collected, modified in a laboratory to recognise a target, and returned to the body.
adverse events
Any unwanted medical problem that happens during a study, whether or not it was caused by the treatment. A 'serious' adverse event is one that meets specific criteria, such as causing death, being life-threatening, requiring or prolonging hospital admission, causing significant disability, or another medically important outcome.
stem cell transplant
A procedure that replaces blood-forming cells after high-dose treatment. 'Autologous' uses the person's own cells collected beforehand; 'allogeneic' uses cells from a donor.
Inclusion Criteria
The conditions a person must meet to be considered for the study, for example a confirmed diagnosis, an age range or a test result.
Exclusion Criteria
The conditions that rule a person out even if they meet the inclusion criteria, for example other illnesses, certain medicines or pregnancy.
first-in-human
The first study in which a treatment is given to people. Safety is the main question and the number of participants is usually small.
open-label
No masking is used, so the assigned intervention is not deliberately hidden from participants or study staff.
dose-escalation
Groups of participants receive increasing doses of a treatment, one group after another, to find a dose that can be given safely.
investigational
A treatment that is being tested and has not been approved for this use. It may be approved for a different condition. Being studied does not mean it works or is available outside the study.
