Brief summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CPI-613 when given together with cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPI-613, cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. CPI-613 may help cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs
Detailed description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CPI-613 when administered with high dose cytarabine, and mitoxantrone (mitoxantrone hydrochloride). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of CPI-613 following intravenous (IV) administration in combination with high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone. II. To observe the response rate (complete response \[CR\], complete response with incomplete platelet recovery \[CRi\] and partial response \[PR\]) of CPI-613 in combination with high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone. III. To observe the overall survival of patients treated with CPI-613 in combination with high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone. OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of CPI-613. Patients receive CPI-613 intravenously (IV) over 2 hours on days 1-5, cytarabine IV over 3 hours every 12 hours for 5 doses beginning on day 3, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV over 15 minutes after the 1st, 3rd, and 5th doses of cytarabine. . Treatment repeats every 14 days for up to 2 courses\* in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. NOTE: \*Patients undergoing a second course of therapy receive CPI-613 IV over 2 hours on days 1-3, cytarabine IV over 3 hours every 12 hours for 5 doses beginning on day 2, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV over 15 minutes after the 1st and 3rd doses of cytarabine. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 6 months.

Inclusion criteria
* Patients must have histologically or cytologically documented relapsed and/or refractory acute myeloid leukemia * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 3 * Expected survival \> 3 months * Women of child-bearing potential (i.e., women who are pre-menopausal or not surgically sterile) must use accepted contraceptive methods (abstinence, intrauterine device \[IUD\], oral contraceptive or double barrier device), and must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 1 week prior to treatment initiation; (Note: Pregnant patients are excluded because the effects of CPI-613 on a fetus are unknown) * Fertile men must practice effective contraceptive methods during the study period, unless documentation of infertility exists * Mentally competent, ability to understand and willingness to sign the informed consent form * No radiotherapy, treatment with cytotoxic agents (except CPI-613), treatment with biologic agents or any anti-cancer therapy within the 2 weeks prior to treatment with CPI-613; patients must have fully recovered from the acute, non-hematological, non-infectious toxicities of any prior treatment with cytotoxic drugs, radiotherapy or other anti-cancer modalities (returned to baseline status as noted before most recent treatment); patients with persisting, non-hematologic, non-infectious toxicities from prior treatment ≤ grade 2 are eligible, but must be documented as such * Aspartate aminotransferase (\[AST\]/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\]) =\< 3 x upper normal limit (UNL), alanine aminotransferase (\[ALT\]/serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) =\< 3 x UNL (=\< 5 x upper limit of normal \[ULN\] if liver metastases present) * Bilirubin =\< 1.5 x UNL * Serum creatinine =\< 1.5 mg/dL or 133 μmol/L * International Normalized Ratio or INR must be \< 1.5
Exclusion criteria
* Serious medical illness, such as significant cardiac disease (e.g. symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, pericardial disease or New York Heart Association class III or IV), or severe debilitating pulmonary disease, that would potentially increase patients' risk for toxicity * Patients with active central nervous system (CNS) or epidural tumor * Any active uncontrolled bleeding, and any patients with a bleeding diathesis (e.g., active peptic ulcer disease) * Pregnant women, or women of child-bearing potential not using reliable means of contraception (because the teratogenic potential of CPI-613 is unknown) * Lactating females because the potential of excretion of CPI-613 into breast milk (Note: Lactating females are excluded because the effects of CPI-613 on a nursing child are unknown) * Fertile men unwilling to practice contraceptive methods during the study period * Life expectancy less than 3 months * Any condition or abnormality which may, in the opinion of the investigator, compromise the safety of patients * Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements * Patients with large and recurrent pleural or peritoneal effusions requiring frequent drainage (e.g. weekly); patients with any amount of clinically significant pericardial effusion * Active heart disease including myocardial infarction within previous 6 months, symptomatic coronary artery disease, uncontrolled arrhythmias, or symptomatic congestive heart failure * Albumin \< 2.0 g/dL or \< 20 g/L * Evidence of ongoing, uncontrolled infection * Patients with known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection; (Note: Patients with known HIV infection are excluded because patients with an immune deficiency are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy, and because there may be unknown or dangerous drug interactions between CPI-613 and anti-retroviral agents used to treat HIV infections) * Patients receiving any other standard or investigational treatment for their cancer, or any other investigational agent for any indication within the past 2 weeks prior to initiation of CPI-613 treatment (the use of Hydrea is allowed) * Patients who have received immunotherapy of any type within the past 4 weeks prior to initiation of CPI-613 treatment * Requirement for immediate palliative treatment of any kind including surgery * Patients that have received a chemotherapy regimen with stem cell support in the previous 6 months * A history of additional risk factors for torsade de pointes (e.g., clinically significant heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT syndrome)
