Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug, ASP2215, to see if it can help people with a certain type of leukemia who have not responded to other treatments. The trial will compare how well the new drug works to standard chemotherapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that have a specific mutation called FLT3. They should not have had success with first-line AML therapy and must be physically able to handle the treatments, as indicated by an ECOG performance status of 2 or less. Women of childbearing age must agree to use effective contraception and not breastfeed.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests ASP2215 against standard salvage chemotherapy in patients whose AML has returned after treatment or didn't respond to initial therapy. It aims to see if ASP2215 can improve overall survival, event-free survival, and rates of complete remission compared to existing chemotherapy options.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, typical ones from leukemia treatments include nausea, fatigue, increased risk of infection due to low blood cell counts, bleeding or bruising easily from low platelets, liver problems shown by blood tests changes.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: GilteritinibExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants received 120 mg dose (3 tablets of 40 mg) orally once a day in continuous 28-day cycles, at least 2 hours after or 1 hour before food. Gilteritinib treatment continued until participants met one of the treatment discontinuation criteria.
Group II: Salvage ChemotherapyActive Control4 Interventions
Participants received chemotherapy in 28-day cycles. Participants on Low-Dose Cytarabine (LoDAC) received 20 mg of cytarabine twice daily by subcutaneous (SC) or intravenous (IV) injection for 10 days. Participants on azacitidine received 75 mg/m^2 daily by SC or IV injection for 7 days. Participants on LoDAC or azacitidine treatment continued until they met discontinuation criteria. Participants on MEC chemotherapy received mitoxantrone 8 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 5 days, etoposide 100 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 5 days and cytarabine 1000 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 5 days (days 1-5). Participants on FLAG-IDA chemotherapy received G-CSF 300 μg/m^2 daily by SC/IV for 5 days (days 1-5), fludarabine 30 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 5 days (days 2-6), cytarabine 2000 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 5 days (days 2-6) and idarubicin 10 mg/m^2 daily by IV for 3 days (days 2-4). Participants receiving MEC or FLAG-IDA received 1 cycle of therapy and were assessed for response on or after day 15.
