Study Summary
This trial is testing the side effects of enasidenib and how well it works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after treatment or has been difficult to treat with chemotherapy.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with acute myeloid leukemia that's returned or hasn't responded to chemo, and have an IDH2 mutation. They should be able to perform daily activities at least halfway normally, not have certain AML types like Down syndrome-related or t(15;17), no known allergies to enasidenib, and mustn't be pregnant or breastfeeding. Participants need proper kidney function, acceptable blood counts, and can't be on conflicting medications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness and side effects of a drug called enasidenib in treating relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia with an IDH2 mutation. It involves collecting biospecimens and performing bone marrow procedures to see if blocking the mutated protein with enasidenib stops cancer growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Enasidenib may cause side effects such as differentiation syndrome (symptoms similar to a flu-like illness), liver problems, increased white blood cell count without infection signs (leukocytosis), nausea, fatigue, joint pain, diarrhea among others. The severity of these side effects can vary.
