About this trial

This phase Ib trial is to find out the side effects and possible benefits of decitabine alone or given together with venetoclax, gilteritinib, enasidenib, or ivosidenib in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is under control (remission). Chemotherapy drugs, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein called Bcl-2 needed for cell growth. Gilteritinib, enasidenib, and ivosidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving decitabine alone or together with venetoclax, gilteritinib, enasidenib, or ivosidenib may help to control the disease.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients aged >= 18 years AML who have achieved their FIRST complete response (CR) or complete response with incomplete bone marrow recovery (CRi) and are not immediately candidates for allogeneic stem cell transplant

Patients who have received intensive therapy (defined as receiving standard or higher dose cytarabine-based therapy) to achieve remission (CR/CRi) should have received remission induction therapy and at least 1 consolidation cycle. These patients are eligible as long as they are not greater than 2 months from their last consolidation therapy and will be designated as COHORT 1 (intensive induction cohort)

Patients who have received lower intensity therapy (defined as receiving low-dose cytarabine [LDAC] or hypomethylating agent [HMA]-based therapy) to achieve remission should have received at least 2 cycles of lower intensity therapy between the time they have achieved CR/CRi and enrollment on this protocol. They will be designated as COHORT 2 (lower intensity induction cohort)

For either subgroup (lower or higher intensity), patients who have measurable residual disease may be enrolled on their respective cohort at any time without maximum 'time from consolidation' requirement

Disqualifiers

Diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), AML - M3 by French-American-British (FAB) classification based on morphology, immunophenotype, molecular, or cytogenetics studies

Diagnosis of AML associated t(15;17) or APL variant. Patients with t(9;22) are also ineligible unless they are unable or unwilling to receive therapy with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor

Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to active uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements

Patients with active CNS (central nervous system) disease

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of adverse events

Safety analyses in general will be descriptive and will be presented in tabular format with the appropriate summary statistics. Adverse events will be tabulated using frequency and percentage by severity and by relations to the treatments for each arm.

Time frame
Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Relapse-free survival (RFS)

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate RFS.

Time frame
From complete remission or complete remission with incomplete count recovery until date of first objective documentation of relapse or death, assessed up to 5 years
2

Overall survival (OS)

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate OS.

Time frame
From date of treatment start until date of death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years
3

Event-free survival (EFS)

Event will be defined as: confirmed relapse, withdrawal from study due to adverse event, or death due to any cause. The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate EFS.

Time frame
From treatment start until date of first documented event., assessed up to 5 years
4

Duration of remission

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to duration of remission.

Time frame
Up to 5 years

Other outcomes

1

RFS (Intensive induction cohort)

Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate RFS for intensive induction cohort.

Time frame
Up to 5 years
2

RFS (Lower intensity induction cohort)

Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate RFS for lower intensity induction cohort.

Time frame
Up to 5 years
