Subjects with AML evolving from MDS may have received prior MDS therapy with demethylating agents 4. Subjects must have tested positive for FLT3-ITD and/or other FLT3 activating mutations 5. Age ≥18 years 6. ECOG PS 0 - 2 7. Adequate liver function, defined as normal total bilirubin, ALT ≤2.0x ULN, and AST ≤2.0x ULN measured within 24 hours prior to crenolanib commencement 8. Adequate renal function, defined as serum creatinine ≤1.5x ULN or GFR \>50 mL/min 9. Negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) for women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) • Women considered not of childbearing potential include any of the following: no menses for at least 2 years or menses within 2 years but amenorrheic for at least 2 months and luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) values within normal range (according to definition of postmenopausal for laboratory used) or bilateral oophorectomy or radiation castration and amenorrheic for at least 3 months or with bilateral tubal ligation 10. WOCBP must practice contraception. Acceptable methods of contraception are double barrier methods (condoms with spermicidal jelly or foam and diaphragm with spermicidal jelly or foam), oral, depo provera, or injectable contraceptives, intrauterine devices, tubal ligations, and abstention 11.

|---|---|
| Participants Less Than or Equal to 60 Years of Age Participants ≤60yrs old who had AML with FLT3 activating mutations received 7+3 induction therapy with cytarabine and either daunorubicin or idarubicin followed by 100 mg crenolanib besylate administered orally three times a day. The participants then received up to four cycles of consolidation chemotherapy with high dose cytarabine followed by 100 mg crenolanib besylate three times a day. Participants not undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant received crenolanib for an additional 12 cycles and participants undergoing transplant received 12 cycles of crenolanib post-transplant. | 29 |
