Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Brief summary

This is an open label, two-arm, Phase I-II trial, non-randomized. Arm 1: crenolanib with standard chemotherapy (Idarubicin/Cytarabine, MEC;Mitoxantrone/Etoposide/Cytarabine, FLAG-Ida: Fludarabine/Cytarabine/G-CSF/Idarubicin) Arm 2: crenolanib with 5-azacitidine

Detailed description

For each arm: The phase I with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) determination will use 3+3 design. Phase II total of 52 patients (26 per arm) will be treated at established phase I dose. Enrollment to be simultaneous to each arm.

CR Complete remission (CR) response criteria include a post-baseline bone marrow (BM) biopsy or aspiration % blasts \<5%, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1×10\^9/L and platelet count \>100×10\^9/L. CRi response included all CR criteria met, except participant did not experience either platelet recovery or ANC recovery. Morphologic Leukemia-Free State (MLFS) response included ≤5% in % blasts in the BM aspirate or biopsy. Resistant Disease (RD) was defined as the absence of CR, CRi, CRp, PR or MLFS. Death in aplasia response include deaths occurring following chemotherapy while cytopenic with an aplastic or hypoplastic BM prior to death without evidence of persistent leukemia.

ArmCount
Crenolanib With Standard Salvage Chemotherapy - Dose Level 1
Patients received 60 mg TID (dose level 1) crenolanib combined with standard salvage chemotherapy. Salvage chemotherapy options included IA (Idarubicin (Ida) 12 mg/m2 for 3 days (d) with cytarabine (AraC) 1.5 g/m2 for 4 days (3 d if age \> 60 yrs)), FLAG-Ida (Fludarabine 30 mg/m2, AraC 2g/m2 each for 5 days, and Ida 8 mg/m2 for 3 days) or MEC (Mitoxantrone 8 mg/m2, etoposide 100 mg/m2, AraC 1g/m2 all for 5 days). Patients were allowed to continue receiving crenolanib for up to 365 days after the completion of cytotoxic therapy if they remained in remission. Standard rolling-6 design was implemented with dose escalation of crenolanib as follows: 60 mg TID (dose level 1), 80 mg TID (dose level 2), and 100 mg TID (dose level 3). Crenolanib was given continuously starting at the end of chemotherapy, and discontinued 3 days before the next cycle.

Response Rate of Crenolanib Besylate Combination Therapy

To determine the response rate to crenolanib. CR Complete remission (CR) response criteria include a post-baseline bone marrow (BM) biopsy or aspiration % blasts \<5%, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1×10\^9/L and platelet count \>100×10\^9/L. CRi response included all CR criteria met, except participant did not experience either platelet recovery or ANC recovery. Morphologic Leukemia-Free State (MLFS) response included ≤5% in % blasts in the BM aspirate or biopsy. Resistant Disease (RD) was defined as the absence of CR, CRi, CRp, PR or MLFS. Death in aplasia response include deaths occurring following chemotherapy while cytopenic with an aplastic or hypoplastic BM prior to death without evidence of persistent leukemia.

Time frame: Baseline up to first documented response, persistent disease, or death (whichever occurs first), 1 year.

Population: Number of participants analyzed in the arm Crenolanib With 5-azacitidine - Dose Level 3 (100mg Crenolanib) is zero as the study concluded prior to enrolling any participants on this arm.
