About this trial
This study combines vyxeos and gilteritinib in patients with relapsed or refractory FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia. Vyxeos and gilteritinib will be given as induction therapy. Those patients entering a complete remission or a complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery will be allowed to proceed to consolidation therapy with vyxeos and gilteritinib. Those patients who do not proceed to an allogeneic stem cell transplant for any reason are able to enter the maintenance phase of this trial using daily gilteritinib

Sequential
Treatments tested in this trial
Gilteritinib
DrugGilteritinib is an oral inhibitor of FLT3-ITD and FLT3-TKD. Dose cohort 1 will receive 120mg daily on days 6-19 of induction and days 4-17 of re-induction and consolidation
Vyxeos
DrugVyxeos is a liposomal encapsulation of cytarabine and daunorubicin. It is given as an intravenous infusion over 90 minutes on days 1, 3 and 5 of induction and days 1 and 3 of re-induction and consolidation. The induction and reinduction dose is 44mg/m2 daunorubicin and 100mg/m2 of cytarabine with each infusion. The consolidation dose is 29mg/m2 daunorubicin and 65mg/m2 of cytarabine with each dose.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
Dose escalation will determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of Vyxeos plus Gilteritinib. The MTD is the highest dose of the combination therapy that dose not cause unacceptable side effects.
Secondary outcomes
Complete Remission Rate
Rate of complete remission (CR) and complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi). The definition of CR and CRi is based on the European LeukemiaNet 2017 Response Criteria
Event free survival (EFS)
Event free survival is determined as the duration of time from start of treatment to the time of cancer recurrence.
Overall survival (OS)
Overall survival is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to the time of death from any cause or date of last contact.
