Inclusion criteria
. Pediatric Participants with Relapsed/refractory AML by WHO criteria.
. Participants must have ≥ 5% blasts in the bone marrow as assessed by morphology or flow cytometry. However, if an adequate bone marrow sample cannot be obtained, participants may be enrolled if there is unequivocal evidence of leukemia with ≥ 5% blasts in the peripheral blood or an AML defining genetic abnormality as specified by the WHO 2022 criteria.
. Performance status: Lansky ≥ 50 for participants who are ≤ 16 years old and Karnofsky ≥ 50% for participants who are \> 16 years old.
. Age ≥2 years of age and ≤18 years of age
. Able to swallow pills
. The following baseline laboratory data:
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Incidence of Adverse Events, Graded According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version (v) 5.0
Timeframe: Through study completion; an average of 1 year.
. Total serum bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, unless the increased value is likely attributed to disease involvement. Participants with known Gilbert's syndrome may have a total bilirubin up to ≤5 x ULN for age.
. Creatinine clearance (Schwartz-Formula) or radioisotope GFR ≥ 60ml/min/1.73 m2 or a serum creatinine based on age/sex as follows:
Exclusion criteria
. Concomitant other anti-cancer therapy and/or participation in any other investigational clinical trials except for hydroxyurea. Concurrent hydroxyurea use should be limited to the first 2 cycles of therapy only.
. History of another primary invasive malignancy that has not been definitively treated and is in remission. Participants with non-melanoma skin cancers or with carcinomas in situ are eligible regardless of the time from diagnosis (including concomitant diagnoses).
. Presence of clinically significant uncontrolled central nervous system (CNS) pathology such as epilepsy, childhood seizure, paresis, aphasia, stroke, severe brain injuries, organic brain syndrome, or psychosis.
. Evidence of active cerebral/meningeal disease. Participants may have history of CNS leukemic involvement if definitively treated with prior therapy and no evidence of active disease at the time of consent with at least 2 consecutive spinal fluid negative assessments for residual leukemia and negative imaging (imaging required only if previously showing evidence of CNS leukemia not otherwise documented by spinal fluid assessment).
. Participants with uncontrolled, active infections (viral, bacterial, or fungal) or other disease expected to interfere with the ability of the PI to assess the efficacy of the study drug. Infections controlled on concurrent anti-microbial agents are acceptable, and anti-microbial prophylaxis per institutional guidelines are acceptable.
. Known active hepatitis B (eg, HBsAg reactive), or hepatitis C (eg, HCV RNA \[qualitative\] is detected), or chronic hepatitis B or C infection or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in medical history (historical results within 6 months prior to informed consent is acceptable), with the following exceptions:
. Liver cirrhosis or other serious active liver disease or with suspected active alcohol abuse.
. Exclude participants with active GVHD and those on immunosuppressive drugs for treatment of GVHD. Require that participants be off calcineurin inhibitors for at least 4 weeks to be eligible.
