Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the efficacy of tyrosine-kinase inhibitor midostaurin in c-KIT or FLT3-ITD mutated t(8;21) AML. To assess the efficacy of midostaurin depending on the type of c-KIT mutation

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

AML patients displaying t(8;21) have a relatively favourable outcome. Nevertheless, only approximately 50% of patients carrying this cytogenetic aberration are alive at 5 years. This suggests that some patients have more aggressive leukemic phenotypes and indicates the need for treatment optimization with novel therapies.

The mutated KIT gene as well as the FLT3-ITD mutation have recently been identified as factors most likely to explain the heterogeneous clinical outcomes within the group of t(8;21) AML. The FLT3 and c-KIT genes encode type III receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) with important and partly redundant functions in early hematopoietic stem cells. Various activating mutations have been described for both genes. For c-KIT, the incidence ranges from 17 to 48% depending on the source population and type of mutations determined. It has been consistently shown that in AMLs with t(8;21), mutated c-KIT is associated with a dramatically increased risk of relapse and reduced overall survival compared to their unmutated counterparts. The FLT3-ITD mutation has a similar negative effect on prognosis in the patient group of t(8;21) mutated AMLs as c-KIT.

PKC412 (midostaurin) is known to inhibit the c-KIT RTK activity as well as the FLT3 kinase, both in patients with ITD and TKD mutations. It should therefore be possible to abrogate the negative impact of pathologically increased c-KIT or FLT3-ITD activity on relapse and overall survival by using midostaurin in this patient population. Aim of the proposed clinical trial is to prove the efficacy of midostaurin in c-KIT or FLT3-ITD mutated t(8;21)- AMLs in an open-label one-arm design.

midostaurin (PKC412), capsules

midostaurin 50 mg (two 25 mg capsules) is given in combination with the second of two induction cycles and in combination with three cycles of high-dose cytarabine (HiDAC) consolidation chemotherapies and maintenance treatment in patients with c-kit or FLT3-ITD positive t(8;21) AML in an open-label one-arm design. The first cycle of induction is not part of the study.
