IDHENTIFY Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, AG-221, against conventional care regimens (CCRs) for subjects 60 years or older with AML who have relapsed after second- or third-line therapy.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for people aged 60 or older with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has returned or didn't respond to second- or third-line treatments. They must have an IDH2 mutation, be able to receive conventional care regimens, and have good enough health to participate in the study. Pregnant women, those with severe medical conditions, recent other cancer therapies, heart issues, uncontrolled infections or known allergies to study drugs cannot join.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial is testing AG-221 against standard treatments like Azacitidine and different doses of cytarabine in older patients with AML who carry an IDH2 mutation. It's a Phase 3 study where participants are randomly chosen to receive either AG-221 or one of the conventional care options.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Possible side effects include reactions at the infusion site, gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea and vomiting, potential liver enzyme increases suggesting liver damage, fatigue, blood count abnormalities which can increase infection risk and bleeding problems.

Group I: AG-221 plus Best supportive care (BSC)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions

Continuous 28-day cycles of AG 221 100 mg orally (PO) once a day (QD) for 28 days, plus BSC.

Group II: Conventional care regimen (CCR)Active Control4 Interventions

Continuous 28-day cycles of BSC only, azacitidine subcutaneously (SC) plus BSC, low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) SC plus BSC, or intermediate-dose cytarabine (IDAC) intravenously (IV) plus BSC. Subjects will be assigned by the investigator to one of the CCR treatment options based on the investigator's assessment of subjects' eligibility.

Are there other examples of AG-221's efficacy?

"AG-221 is being researched in 421 clinical trials, 87 of which are in the third phase. The majority of these trials are located in Edmonton, Alberta; however, there are 14502 total locations running trials for AG-221."

Answered by AI

What medical ailment is AG-221 most often used to treat?

"AG-221 is a medication used to treat meningeal leukemia, but can also be helpful for patients with other blood disorders like refractory anemias and blast phase chronic myelocytic leukemia."

Answered by AI

Are patients currently being accepted for this trial?

"This particular study is no longer recruiting patients, as it was last updated on October 19th, 2022. If you're looking for other opportunities, there are 1,514 trials for isocitrate dehydrogenase and 421 for AG-221 that are still actively searching for participants."

Answered by AI

How many test subjects are involved in this research?

"Presently, this trial is not seeking any more participants as it is closed to recruitment. This study was first posted on December 30th, 2015 but was last edited on October 19th, 2022. If you are interested in other trials, there are 1514 trials involving isocitrate dehydrogenase and 421 involving AG-221 that are actively recruiting."

What is the status of AG-221 in terms of government regulation?

"AG-221's safety is supported by efficacy data from Phase 3 trials as well as additional safety data from follow-up studies-- making it a 3 on our Power scale."

Answered by AI

Is this study widely available in North America?

"In addition to 33 other sites, this trial is also currently enrolling patients at Cancer Care Manitoba, Cancer Center of the Carolinas, and Roswell Park Cancer Institute."

Answered by AI

What are the goals that this research is looking to achieve?

"The goal of this clinical trial is to measure overall survival, which will be observed over the course of approximately 49 months. Secondary outcomes being observed include Event-Free Survival, which is defined as the time from randomization to documented relapse after complete remission/complete remission with incomplete neutrophil recovery/complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CR/CRi/CRp), progressive disease (PD), or death from any cause – whichever occurs first. Morphologic relapse after CR/CRi/CRp is defined as either reappearance of ≥ 5% blasts in the bone marrow not attributable to any other cause, or the development"
