Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this two-stage Phase 2 study is to assess the clinical response (Complete Remission) of ACM (Alvocidib/Cytarabine/Mitoxantrone) compared to CM (Cytarabine/Mitoxantrone) treatment in refractory or relapsed AML patients with demonstrated MCL-1 dependence of ≥ 30% by mitochondrial profiling in bone marrow.
Detailed Description
In Stage 1 of the study, all eligible AML patients with demonstrated MCL-1 dependence of ≥ 30% by mitochondrial profiling in bone marrow will receive treatment with ACM. In Stage 2, all eligible AML patients with demonstrated MCL-1 dependence of ≥ 30% by mitochondrial profiling in bone marrow will be randomized 1:1 to receive either treatment with ACM or CM.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Be between the ages of ≥18 and ≤65 years
- •Have an established, pathologically confirmed diagnoses of AML by World Health Organization (WHO) criteria excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL-M3) with a bone marrow of \>5% blasts based on histology or flow cytometry
- •Be in first relapse (within 24 months of CR) or have failed induction therapy\* (no CR or CRi after treatment with an intensive regimen (eg, anthracycline/cytarabine ± etoposide, gemtuzumab ozogamicin, or cladribine).
- •\*Induction therapy may involve 1 or 2 cycles of the same regimen. Efficacy assessment of induction therapy must be \>21 days from the start of the previous induction cycle.
- •Demonstrate MCL-1 dependence of ≥30% by mitochondrial profiling in bone marrow.
- •Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) ≤2
- •Have a serum creatinine level ≤1.8 mg/dL
- •Have an alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level ≤5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
- •Have a total bilirubin level ≤2.0 mg/dL (unless secondary to Gilbert syndrome, hemolysis, or leukemia)
- •Have a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \>45% by echocardiogram (ECHO) or multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan
Exclusion Criteria
- •Received more than 2 cycles of induction therapy for AML. Investigational agents as part of front-line therapy for AML may by acceptable following discussion with the Medical Monitor. Hydroxyurea is permitted (see #5 below).
- •Received any previous treatment with alvocidib or any other CDK inhibitor
- •Received a hematopoietic stem cell transplant within the previous 2 months
- •Have clinically significant graft versus host disease (GVHD), or GVHD requiring initiation or escalation of treatment within the last 21 days
- •Require concomitant chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy. Hydroxyurea is allowed up to the evening before starting (but not within 12 hours) of starting treatment on either arm.
- •Received \>360 mg/m2 equivalents of daunorubicin
- •Have a peripheral blast count of \>30,000/mm3 (may use hydroxyurea as in #5 above)
- •Received antileukemic therapy within the last 3 weeks (with the exception of hydroxyurea or if the patient has definite refractory disease). Refractory patients who received therapy within the last 3 weeks may be eligible with prior approval of the Medical Monitor.
- •Diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL, M3)
- •Have active central nervous system (CNS) leukemia

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Complete Response (CR) Rate in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory AML
Time Frame: Best response after at least 1 cycle through study completion approximately 4 years
Complete Remission (CR) rate = Percentage of patients achieving CR after Cycle 1 as defined in Stage 1 by the International Working Group (IWG) Criteria and 2010 European LeukemiaNet (EN) criteria in patients with relapsed or refractory AML with MCL-1 dependence \>30% and in Stage 2 by the 2017 ELN criteria. The study was terminated in January 2020 due to a steady and marked reduction in enrollment. Thus, the efficacy endpoints could not be analyzed. As sufficient efficacy results were not available to analyze patients based on the percentage of MCL-1 dependency the treatment efficacy was summarized by distributing the safety population into 6 groups based on whether the patients received the ACM vs CM regimen and their disease stages at study entry.
