Venetoclax and HMA-based Therapies for Adults With FLT3-mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial

What is the Purpose of this Study?

This study focuses on adults diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have previously participated in another study called the myeloMATCH study. The purpose of this research is to compare the usual drug combination treatment of azacitidine and venetoclax to the combination treatment of azacitidine, venetoclax and gilteritinib. The study aims to determine whether the addition of gilteritinib to the usual treatment will lower the amount of leukemia in the body and lead to a higher percentage of patients achieving a deeper remission. While the usual treatment combination (azacitidine and venetoclax) has been shown to work, researchers want to learn whether adding giltertinib to this combination is worth the risk in exchange for a higher chance of remission or longer duration of remission. Participants will receive either azacitidine (through a vein in the arm or subcutaneously) and venetoclax by mouth for up to 2 years, or they will receive azacitidine (through a vein in the arm or subcutaneously) and venetoclax and gilteritinib as tablets for up to 2 years. Procedures also include physical examination, electrocardiogram, blood and urine sample collection, bone marrow biopsy, and pill diary completion. Azacitidine, venetoclax, and gilteritinib are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but their combined use is considered experimental.


Eligibility

  • * Patient must be ≥ 60 years of age or adults ˂ 60 who in the opinion of the treating physician are better served by azanucleoside-based therapy rather than intensive, cytarabine-based induction based on clinical status (i.e., performance status, age \> 75 years), organ dysfunction, or disease biology
  • * Patient must have a morphologically confirmed diagnosis of AML according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2016 classification excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with PML-RARA, AML with RUNX1-RUNX1T1, or AML with CBFB-MYH11
  • * Patient must have no prior therapy for AML with the exception of hydroxyurea and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), or leukapheresis. Patients with cytarabine-based emergency therapy prior to the start of therapy on this trial are eligible
  • * Patient must have no prior therapy with hypomethylating agents or FLT3 inhibitors
