Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This phase Ib/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of venetoclax and how well it works when given with combination chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, cytarabine, filgrastim and idarubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax together with combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

  4. * Creatinine clearance \>= 30 mL/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault equation
  5. * Total bilirubin \< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) unless increase is due to Gilbert's disease or leukemic involvement
  6. * Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \< 3 x ULN unless considered due to leukemic involvement
  7. * Ability to understand and provide signed informed consent
  8. * Male subjects must agree to refrain from unprotected sex and sperm donation from initial study drug administration until 90 days after the last dose of study drug
  9. * Only patients who are relapsed, refractory, or intolerant of standard AML therapy will be eligible for Part 1 (minimum of 1 prior line of AML-directed therapy)
  1. * Patients with t(15;17) karyotypic abnormality or acute promyelocytic leukemia (French-American-British \[FAB\] class M3-AML)
  2. * Patients having received any prior BCL2 inhibitor therapy
  3. * Subject has known active central nervous system (CNS) involvement with AML
  4. * Patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV congestive heart failure or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \< 40% by echocardiogram or multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan
  5. * Patients with a history of myocardial infarction within the last 6 months or unstable / uncontrolled angina pectoris or history of severe and/or uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias
  6. * Patients with known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active hepatitis B or C
  7. * Patients with known dysphagia, short-gut syndrome, or other conditions that would affect the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered orally
  8. * Subject has any other significant medical or psychiatric history that in the opinion of the investigator would adversely affect participation in this study
  9. * Subject has a white blood cell count \> 25 x 10{9}/L. (Note: hydroxyurea is permitted to meet this criterion)
