Study Summary
This trial is testing a new chemotherapy drug to treat AML. They are trying to find the best dose of the drug to minimize side effects while still being effective.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with newly diagnosed AML who can attend required visits, have normal organ function, and agree to use non-hormonal contraception. Excluded are those with severe pancreatitis unrelated to gallstones, unprovoked blood clots or strokes, major bleeding events recently, hypersensitivity to similar drugs, other treatments for cancer ongoing or certain genetic abnormalities in their leukemia.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Calaspargase Pegol-mknl as a chemotherapy agent for AML patients. It aims to find the highest dose patients can take without serious side effects (MTD) and decide on a recommended dose for future Phase 2 trials (RP2D).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of Calaspargase Pegol-mknl may include allergic reactions due to its pegylated nature, liver dysfunction indicated by elevated bilirubin levels, abnormal blood clotting leading to thrombosis or stroke risks, and possible impact on heart function.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Calaspargase pegol-mknl dose level 4Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Induction Phase (It usually lasts 29 days):
The subject will take Cytarabine 3000 mg/m2 in an IV every 12 hours on days 1, 3, 5 for 6 doses.
The subject will take Idarubicin 12 mg/m2 for three doses in an IV after the first, third, and fifth High-dose Cytarabine.
The subject will take a dose of 2,000 U/m2 of Calaspargase pegol-mknl in an IV after the last (6th) dose of High-dose Cytarabine every 21 days ( per cycle).
Consolidation Phase ( One cycle of consolidation lasts 4-8 weeks):
The subject will take Cytarabine 3000 mg/m2 in an IV every 12 hours on days 1, 3, 5 for 6 doses.
