Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: - Allogeneic SCT within the last 4 months and/or active GVHD which requires systemic immunosuppressant therapy, or autologous SCT within the last 4 weeks. - Patient for which immediate allogenic SCT is the treatment of choice. - Patients with a life threatening or uncontrolled systemic infection. - Active CNS leukemic involvement. - Major surgery within 2 weeks of initiation of study medication. - Concurrent uncontrolled medical conditions that may interfere or potentially affect the interpretation of the study. - Unable to take oral drugs, or lack of physical integrity of the upper gastrointestinal tract, or known malabsorption syndromes. - Patients with unresolved diarrhea > CTCAE grade 2. - Patients who have previously been treated with systemic LDE225 or with other Hh pathway inhibitors. - Patients who have neuromuscular disorders or are on concomitant treatment with drugs that are recognized to cause rhabdomyolysis - patients who are planning on embarking on new physical activities, such as strenuous exercise, that can result in significant increases in plasma CK levels while on study treatment. - Patient has history of cardiac dysfunction - patient has active cardiac disease - Use of other investigational drugs within 30 days or 5 half-lives of initiation of study medication, whichever is longer. - Patients who are receiving treatment with medications known to be moderate and strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4/5 or drugs metabolized by CYP2B6 or CYP2C9 that have narrow therapeutic index, and that cannot be discontinued before starting treatment with LDE225. - Patients are excluded if the use of warfarin is necessary and cannot be substituted - Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women - Patients who are not willing to apply highly effective contraception during the study and the defined duration after final dose of study treatment. - Known HIV positivity.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the rate of complete remission (CR) and complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) on two different dosing schedules of LDE225 in acute leukemia; Secondary Objective: 1. To evaluate the Overall Response Rate on two different dosing schedules of LDE225 in acute leukemia 2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of two different dosing schedules of LDE225 in acute leukemia 3. To further characterize the pharmacokinetics of two different dosing schedules of LDE225 in acute leukemia ;Primary end point(s): Rate of CR and CRi;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: As defined in Table 3-1 and section 10.4.2 of the protocol. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Overall Response Rate (ORR) 2. Safety (Adverse events, abnormal lab values, ECGs, SAEs etc.) 3. PK parameters: - Tmax, Cmax, Ctrough, and AUC0-8h for all patients - AUC0-24h, CL/F and Racc for 800 mg QD arm only ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: As defined in Table 3-1 and sections 10.5., 10.5.2 and 10.5.3 of the protocol. | — |
