Purpose

The purpose of this study is to compare relapse-free survival (RFS) between subjects with FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) / internal tandem duplication (ITD) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) and who are randomized to receive gilteritinib or placebo beginning after completion of induction/consolidation chemotherapy for a two-year period.

Detailed Description

      Subjects in CR1 will be approached for this study after induction/consolidation therapy is
      complete and a decision not to proceed with transplantation is made or a suitable donor could
      not be identified. Subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive gilteritinib or
      placebo. Subjects will enter the screening period up to 14 days prior to the start of
      treatment. Subjects will be administered treatment over continuous 28-day cycles.
      Gilteritinib or placebo will be given daily for up to 2 years. After treatment
      discontinuation, subjects will have a 30-day follow-up visit for safety, after which the
      subjects will enter the long-term follow up period for collection of subsequent AML
      treatment, remission status, and survival (cause of death and date of death). Subjects will
      be contacted every 3 months until final database lock. Study drug will not be provided during
      the follow-up period.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Relapse-free Survival (RFS)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:RFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of documented relapse or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Relapse after Complete Remission (CR) (including Complete Remission with incomplete Platelet recovery (CRp) and Complete Remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi)), is defined as bone marrow blasts 5% or higher (not attributable to regenerating bone marrow), any circulating blasts, any extra-medullary blast foci as per Revised International Working Group (IWG) criteria. Relapse events will be adjudicated by an independent review committee and will be used in the efficacy assessments, unless specifically stated otherwise.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of death from any cause. For surviving subjects, non-events will be censored at the date of last known date alive.
Measure:Event-free survival (EFS)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:EFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of documented relapse or discontinuation of the treatment, or initiation of other anti-leukemic treatment or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
Measure:Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:MRD will be measured from bone marrow samples. FLT3/ITD mutation ratio will be measured in relation to total FLT3. Changes in FLT3/ITD mutation ratio will be compared with baseline/screening samples.
Measure:Safety assessed by Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values and/or adverse events related to treatment
Time Frame:Up to 50 months

Measure:Number of participants with abnormal vital signs and/or adverse events related to treatment
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:Safety assessed by electrocardiograms (ECGs)
Time Frame:Up to 50 months
Safety Issue:
Description:The 12-lead ECGs will be recorded in triplicate (3 separate ECGs, 10 minutes resting prior to first ECG and at least 5 minutes apart per time point) and transmitted electronically for central reading. The mean of the triplicate ECG from central read should be used for all final treatment decisions and AE reporting.
Measure:Number of participants with physical exam abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment

Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score
Time Frame:Up to 24 months
Safety Issue:
Description:ECOG performance status measured on 6 point scale to assess participant's performance status. 0=Fully active, able to carry on all pre-disease activities without restriction; 1=Restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature; 2= Ambulatory and capable of all self-care but unable to carry out any work activities. Up and about more than 50% of waking hours; 3=Capable of only limited self-care, confined to bed or chair more than 50% of waking hours; 4=Completely disabled. Cannot carry on any self-care. Totally confined to bed or chair; 5=Dead.
