Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 70 years with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients outside the age range of 18 to 70 years or those with other types of leukemia may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study aims to evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of CPX-351 and gemtuzumab ozogamicin in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Participants will receive these treatments to assess their effectiveness and safety profile. The study will involve adult patients aged 18 to 70 years who meet specific eligibility criteria. The goal is to establish a recommended dose level for future phases of research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this combination therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with newly diagnosed AML.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is being explored, similar combinations have shown promise in other studies, indicating potential for success.

Inclusion Criteria: * Provision of signed and dated informed consent form * Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study * Male or female, aged ≥18 and ≤70 years with newly diagnosed any risk AML as defined by ELN 2017 criteria * For females of child-bearing potential: use of highly effective contraception upon enrollment and during study participation and for an additional 6 months after the end of CPX-351 and Gemtuzumab ozogamicin administration: A female of child-bearing potential is considered when a sexually mature female: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months * The effects of CPX-351 and gemtuzumab ozogamicin on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential as defined above must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to beginning study treatment. * For males of reproductive potential: use of condoms or other methods to ensure effective contraception with partner * Myeloblasts expressing CD33 as determined by flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry * ECOG ≤ 2 and eligible to receive intensive chemotherapy as determined by the treating physician * Prior malignancy is allowed providing it does not require concurrent therapy. Exception: Active hormonal therapy is allowed. * Prior hypomethylating agents (HMA) therapy including azacitidine or decitabine when used for non-AML diagnoses is allowed. Most recent dose must have been ≥14 days prior to day 1 of study treatment. * Participants must have acceptable organ function * Adequate cardiac function defined as ejection fraction of ≥50% as determined by multigated acquisition scan (MUGA) or 2D echocardiogram. * Hydroxyurea is allowed for cytoreduction until day 1 of study treatment Exclusion Criteria: * Prior treatment of AML except hydroxyurea and/or leukapheresis * Participants with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). * Known current and clinically active central nervous system (CNS) leukemia. * Severe liver disease (cirrhosis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, sclerosing cholangitis) or patients with known Wilson's disease. * Participants with known active infection with hepatitis B or hepatitis C virus * Known allergic reactions to components of the CPX-351 (cytarabine or daunorubicin) or Gemtuzumab ozogamicin. * Patients with any prior anthracycline exposure plus any planned on-study anthracycline exposure cannot not exceed 550 mg/m2 of daunorubicin (or equivalent). For participants who have received radiation therapy to the mediastinum, the total cumulative dose of anthracycline should not exceed 400 mg/m2 of daunorubicin(or equivalent). * Hemodynamically unstable (subjects requiring vasopressor support will not be eligible). * Treatment with another investigational drug within 14 days. * Uncontrolled cardiac disease including congestive heart failure class III or IV by the NYHA, unstable angina (angina symptoms at rest), new onset angina (began within the last 3 months) or myocardial infarction within the past 6 months. * Any disorder that compromises the subject's ability to give written informed consent and/or to comply with study procedures. * Any substance abuse, severe and/or uncontrolled medical, social or psychiatric conditions that may prevent the subject from completing the study, interfere with the evaluation of safety and/or efficacy, or interfere with the interpretation of the study results. * Female subject who is pregnant or breastfeeding. * Any patient with a known FLT3 ITD or FLT3 TKD mutation
