A Global Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Midostaurin + Chemotherapy in Newly Diagnosed Patients With FLT3 Mutation Negative (FLT3-MN) Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

NCT03512197

Description:

The purpose of this study is to confirm the preliminary evidence from early clinical trials that midostaurin may provide clinical benefit not only to AML patients with the FLT3-mutations but also in FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML (FLT3 mutant to wild type signal ratio below the 0.05 clinical cut-off). This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of midostaurin in combination with daunorubicin or idarubicin and cytarabine for induction and intermediate-dose cytarabine for consolidation, and midostaurin single agent post-consolidation therapy in newly diagnosed patients with FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Event Free Survival (EFS)
Time Frame:From date of Randomization up to 5 years of follow-up
Safety Issue:
Description:EFS is defined as the time from randomization to failure to obtain a Complete Remission (CR) or Morphologic Complete Remission without hematopoietic recovery (CRi) with adequate blood count recovery(adequate for treatment continuation) in induction, relapse after CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first as assessed by the investigator

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame:Between randomization to date of death up to 5 years of follow-up of last patients
Safety Issue:
Description:OS is defined as the time from randomization to date of death due to any cause. Patients will enter the survival follow-up phase once they complete the safety follow up period (30 days after the last dose of midostaurin/placebo) in case of induction failure or have relapse during post-treatment follow-up. Patients will then be contacted by telephone every 3 months +/- 2 weeks or have a visit to follow up on their survival status
Measure:Complete Remission (CR) with adequate blood count recovery rate
Time Frame:Between randomization to date of death up to 5 years of follow-up of last patients
Safety Issue:
Description:Assessment will be based on the IWG criteria for AML as per investigator assessment

Patient who did not relapse nor die will be censored at the last adequate response assessment. Assessment will be based on the IWG criteria for AML as per investigator assessment
Measure:Number of days from the first day of a chemotherapy cycle to first day neutrophils ≥0.5 x 10^9/L
Time Frame:At maximum 93 days from induction therapy start
Safety Issue:
Description:The time to neutrophil recovery will be assessed for the following criteria: number of days from start of treatment to the first day neutrophils ≥0.5 x 10^9/L, Number of days from start of treatment to the first day neutrophils ≥1.0 x 10^9/L

Safety Issue:
Description:
Measure:Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR)
Time Frame:From date of CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery up to 5 years of follow-up
Safety Issue:
Description:CIR is defined for patients with CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery and is time from achieving CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery until the onset of relapse from CR or CRi with adequate blood recovery. Patients without relapse are censored at the last adequate response assessment. Patients who died without relapse are counted as a competing cause of failure. Assessment will be based on the IWG criteria for AML as per investigator assessment
Measure:Cumulative incidence of death (CID)
Time Frame:From date of CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery up to 5 years of follow-up
Safety Issue:
Description:CID is defined for all patients achieving CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery measured from the date of achievement of CR or CRi until the date of death due to any reason. Patients not known to have died are censored on the last contact date. Patients who experienced relapse are counted as a competing cause of failure. Assessment will be based on the IWG criteria for AML as per investigator assessment
Measure:Number of days from date of randomization to first documented CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery
Time Frame:At maximum 93 days from induction therapy start
Safety Issue:
Description:Time to CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery is defined as the time from randomization to CR or CRi with adequate blood count recovery whichever occurs first

Measure:Change from baseline score for each time point for the FACT-Leu
Time Frame:From date of Randomization up to 5 years of follow-up
Safety Issue:
Description:The total FACT-Leu score consists of 44 items with total scores ranging from 0 to 176. Higher scores indicate better HRQoL. Negative changes from baseline indicate a worsening of HRQoL while positive changes indicate an improvement in HRQoL.
Measure:Change from baseline score for each time point for the EQ5D-5L (a visual analogue scale (VAS))
Time Frame:From date of Randomization up to 5 years of follow-up
Safety Issue:
Description:The EQ5D-5L questionnaire assesses 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 response options (no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems) that reflect increasing levels of difficulty. The patient is asked to indicate his/her current health state by selecting the most appropriate level in each of the 5 dimensions. The questionnaire also included a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), where the patient is asked to rate current health status on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst imaginable health state.
