Summary

This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of a drug called ziftomenib when used together with standard treatments for patients with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia that has come back

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have specific genetic changes like NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement. Participants need to be in a stable physical condition, have good liver and kidney function, and agree to use contraception. It's not suitable for those with poor heart function.
What is being tested?
The trial tests the safety and effectiveness of Ziftomenib combined with other AML treatments: FLAG-IDA regimen, low-dose Cytarabine, or Gilteritinib. The goal is to see how well patients respond to these combinations when their AML has come back or hasn't improved after treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, liver and kidney issues. Each patient may experience side effects differently.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase 1bExperimental Treatment6 Interventions
Oral ziftomenib; Following the determination of the maximum tolerated dose in Phase 1a, participants will be enrolled in 1 of 5 dose validation/expansion cohorts: A-1: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus FLAG-IDA A-2: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) A-3: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus gilteritinib B-1: Participants with a KMT2A rearrangement: ziftomenib plus FLAG-IDA B-2: Participants with a KMT2A rearrangement: ziftomenib plus low-dose cytarabine (LDAC)
Group II: Phase 1aExperimental Treatment6 Interventions
Oral ziftomenib; sequential cohorts of escalating dose levels of ziftomenib to identify the safety and tolerability of the combination regimens. Participants will be enrolled in 1 of 5 dose escalation cohorts: A-1: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus FLAG-IDA A-2: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) A-3: Participants with a NPM1 mutation: ziftomenib plus gilteritinib B-1: Participants with a KMT2A rearrangement: ziftomenib plus FLAG-IDA B-2: Participants with a KMT2A rearrangement: ziftomenib plus low-dose cytarabine (LDAC)
