NCT04203316

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies the side effects of enasidenib and sees how well it works in treating pediatric patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after treatment (relapsed) or has been difficult to treat with chemotherapy (refractory). Patients must also have a specific genetic change, also called a mutation, in a protein called IDH2. Enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the mutated IDH2 protein, which is needed for leukemia cell growth.

Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must be \>= 24 months and \< 21 years of age at the time of study enrollment
  • Patient must have AML with an IDH2 mutation identified from a peripheral blood or bone marrow sample at the time of diagnosis and/or relapsed/refractory disease
  • Patient must have bone marrow assessment (aspiration or biopsy) with \> 5% leukemic blasts by morphology and/or flow cytometry in at least one of the following clinical scenarios:
  • Second or greater relapse after chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)
  • Refractory after \>= 2 attempts at induction therapy
  • Relapsed patients

  • Each attempt at induction therapy may include up to two chemotherapy courses
  • Karnofsky \>= 50% for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky \>= 50 for patients =\< 16 years of age. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score
  • Patient's current disease state must be one for which there is no known curative therapy or therapy proven to prolong survival with an acceptable quality of life
  • Evaluation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is only required if there is a clinical suspicion of central nervous system (CNS) involvement by leukemia during eligibility screening. Should a patient be found to have CNS2 or CNS3 status by CSF prior to eligibility screening, patient may receive intrathecal chemotherapy \> 72 hours prior to starting study drug. CNS1 status must be established before starting study drug
  • Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior anti-cancer therapy and must meet the following minimum duration from prior anti-cancer directed therapy prior to enrollment.

  • +34 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • AML associated with Down syndrome or t(15;17) is not eligible for study
