Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include individuals diagnosed with relapsed/refractory AML who have specific genetic mutations such as NPM1 or KMT2A rearrangements.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia or those with active central nervous system leukemia may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial investigates the safety and tolerability of ziftomenib when combined with standard treatments for patients suffering from relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The study will evaluate the antileukemic response of ziftomenib in conjunction with agents such as FLAG-IDA, low-dose cytarabine, and gilteritinib. Participants must have specific genetic mutations associated with AML, and the trial aims to determine the effectiveness of these combinations in improving patient outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a new effective treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory AML.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using targeted therapies for AML, suggesting that this approach may yield beneficial results.
