Must not have
Subjects with a known history of severe and/or uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias
Subjects who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) within 60 days of the first dose of AG-120, or subjects on immunosuppressive therapy post HSCT at the time of screening, or with clinically significant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)

Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, AG-120, to see if it's safe and effective in treating people with advanced cancers that have a mutation in the IDH1 gene. The trial has two parts: first, they'll test different doses of the drug to see what the maximum tolerated dose is; then, they'll expand the trial to a larger group of people to see if the drug is effective. There's also a substudy testing AG-120 in people with a different but related cancer, myelodysplastic syndrome.

Who is the study for?
Adults (18+) with advanced blood cancers like AML or MDS that have a specific IDH1 mutation can join. They must be able to undergo regular bone marrow, blood, and urine tests, not be pregnant, and have an ECOG performance status of 0-2. Adequate liver and kidney function is required. Those with severe heart problems, recent cancer treatments within 14 days (except hydroxyurea), active infections including HIV or hepatitis B/C, CNS leukemia symptoms or history of it without clinical suspicion are excluded.
What is being tested?
AG-120 is being tested in patients with certain mutations in their blood cancer cells. The trial has two parts: first finding the highest dose people can take without too many side effects (dose escalation) and then giving more people this dose to see how well it works and if it's safe (dose expansion). There's also a special part for those whose myelodysplastic syndrome came back after treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects aren't listed here but generally could include issues from taking oral AG-120 such as nausea, fatigue, liver problems based on its impact on metabolism enzymes; participants will stop treatment if they experience disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
