About this trial
This international, multicenter, randomized (1:1), open-label phase II/III trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of gilteritinib combined with azacitidine and venetoclax (experimental arm) versus standard "7+3" induction plus a FLT3inhibitor (quizartinib or midostaurin) (control arm) in newly diagnosed FLT3-ITD mutated AML patients eligible for intensive chemotherapy.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Newly diagnosed AML cytopathologically confirmed according to the 5th WHO classification
Age between 18 and 75 years
FLT3-ITD mutation as per local IVDR-compliant testing. Positivity is defined as a FLT3-ITD / FLT3-wild type (WT) ratio of ≥ 0.05 (5%))
Eligibility for standard induction chemotherapy
Disqualifiers
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL)
BCR-ABL positive leukemia or Ph1-positive chronic myeloid leukemia
History of myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), including myelofibrosis, essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera
Active central nervous system involvement by AML

Treatments tested in this trial
Gilteritinib
DrugCycle 1: 80 mg once daily orally on days 1-28. Cycle 2 - 12: 80mg once daily orally on days 1-28. Cycle 13 - 24: gilteritinib 120 mg once daily orally on days 1-28. Following HSCT, maintenance with gilteritinib (120 mg once daily orally on days 1-28) will be offered for up to 36 cycles and started between day 30 and 90 after hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT).
Venetoclax
DrugCycle 1: ramp-up from 100mg on day 1, 200 mg on day 2 and 400 mg on days 3 - 28. Cycle 2 - 12: venetoclax 400 mg once daily orally days 1-7.
Azacitidine (AZA)
DrugCycle 1: 75 mg/m² once daily subcutaneously on days 1-7. Cycle 2 -12: 75 mg/m² once daily subcutaneously on days 1-5. Cycle 13 - 24: 75 mg/m² once daily subcutaneously on days 1-5.
Local standard of care (SOC)
DrugLocal SOC is "7+3" + Midostaurin (100 mg) or Quizartinib (35.4 mg)
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Phase II: Achievement of CR/CRi documented within 6 months from randomization, occurring prior to allografting and before initiation of any post-protocol treatments.
The European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2022 criteria will be used to evaluate CR/CRi.
Phase III: Overall survival
Secondary outcomes
Achievement of CR/CRi documented within 6 months from randomization, occurring prior to allografting and before initiation of any post-protocol treatments (for the phase III component of the trial only)
Overall survival (for the phase II component of the trial only)
Event-free survival
Event-free survival defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of relapse, treatment failure or death, whichever occurs first
