Testing the Addition of an Anti-cancer Drug, Navtemadlin, to the Usual Treatments (Cytarabine and Idarubicin) in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (NCT04190550)

A Phase 1b Study With Expansion Cohort of Escalating Doses of KRT-232 (AMG 232) Administered in Combination With Standard Induction Chemotherapy (Cytarabine and Idarubicin) in Newly Diagnosed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of navtemadlin when given together with the standard chemotherapy drugs cytarabine and idarubicin in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Navtemadlin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein called MDM2 that is needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cytarabine and idarubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving navtemadlin with cytarabine and idarubicin may stabilize cancer for longer when compared to giving usual treatments alone.
