Pemigatinib After Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (NCT04659616)

A Multicenter, Phase 1, Open-Label Study of the FGFR Inhibitor Pemigatinib (INCB054828) Administered After Chemotherapy in Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) With Adverse or Intermediate Risk Cytogenetics

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: OHSU Knight Cancer Institute

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

This phase I trial identifies the best dose and clinical benefit of giving pemigatinib following standard induction chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Pemigatinib selectively inhibits FGFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) activity, a receptor that may contribute to the growth of leukemia cells. The genetic changes responsible for activating the growth of leukemia cells can be unique to each patient and can change during the course of the disease. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin 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.
