Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 to 75 with newly diagnosed AML and specific FLT3 and NPM1 mutations.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with AML who do not have the required genetic mutations or who have received prior treatment beyond hydroxyurea 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 clinical trial aims to determine the safe and effective dosage of revumenib, a menin inhibitor, when used in combination with standard chemotherapy (cytarabine and daunorubicin) and the FLT3 inhibitor midostaurin for newly diagnosed patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) harboring specific genetic mutations. The study will involve a single-arm, open-label design, where participants will receive treatment over one to two cycles of induction therapy. The trial will assess the safety and efficacy of this combination therapy, with a total of 22 participants expected to enroll. Investigators will monitor participants for side effects and disease progression throughout the treatment period.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment approach could improve remission rates and outcomes for patients with specific genetic mutations in AML.
How similar studies have gone: While the combination of these specific therapies is novel, similar approaches targeting genetic mutations in AML have shown promise in other studies.
