They must have good liver and kidney function, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, agree to use contraception if they can have children, and not have had certain treatments or conditions that could interfere with the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
Enasidenib is being tested in adults with blood cancers like AML that are resistant to treatment. The trial has two parts: finding the safest dose for Enasidenib (Phase 1) and then checking how well it works at that dose for treating AML (Phase 2).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Enasidenib include issues affecting liver function, digestive system disturbances, fatigue, changes in heart rhythm or blood pressure, allergic reactions to its components, and an increased risk of infections.

Answered by AI

Is this an unprecedented research endeavor?

"Since 2013, Enasidenib has been the subject of much research. The original trial was conducted by Celgene and involved 345 participants. This led to Phase 1 & 2 drug approval being granted for this substance. Nowadays there are 24 active trials on record spread over 84 cities in 28 countries."

Answered by AI

Has there been any prior research conducted with Enasidenib?

"Initially investigated in 2013 at Local Institution - 201, enasidenib has since been the subject of 6 completed clinical trials. 24 current studies are underway with a large number centred around New york City."

Answered by AI

In how many locations can this research be accessed?

"Participants for this trial can be enrolled from Cornell University Weill Medical College in New york, Oregon Health and Science University OHSU in Portland, Sarah Cannon Research Institute Drug Development Unit in Nashville as well as 19 other research centres."

Answered by AI

What is the total participation in this investigation?

"At this time, no more participants are being accepted for this medical trial. Initially posted on August 27th 2013 and recently updated on July 11th 2022, the study is now closed. However, there are 2526 trials currently recruiting patients with hematologic neoplasms and 24 studies that use Enasidenib actively looking for enrollments."

Answered by AI

What is the ultimate objective of this clinical investigation?

"The primary assessment of this clinical trial, which will conclude 28 days following the administration of the first dose, focuses on Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs). Secondary outcomes include Investigator Assessed Overall Response Rate (ORR) by Total Daily Dose and Combined Phase 1/2: Investigator Assessed Overall Response Rate in Participants With R/R AML. Lastly, Phase 1 Dose Expansion aims to measure the rate of Complete Response and Complete Responses With Incomplete Hematological Recovery (CR/CRi/CRp)."
