E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to
• Determine the clinical benefit of ASP2215 therapy in subjects with FMS-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3) mutated AML who are refractory to or have relapsed after first-line AML therapy as shown with overall survival (OS) compared to salvage chemotherapy.
• Determine the efficacy of ASP2215 therapy as assessed by the rate of complete remission and complete remission with partial hematological recovery (CR/CRh) in subjects with FLT3-mutated AML who are refractory to or have relapsed after first-line AML therapy.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The key secondary objectives are to:
• Determine the overall efficacy in event-free survival (EFS) of ASP2215 compared to salvage chemotherapy.
• Determine the overall efficacy in complete remission (CR) rate of ASP2215 compared to salvage chemotherapy.
The secondary objectives are to:
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of ASP2215 therapy versus salvage chemotherapy in terms of:
• leukemia-free survival (LFS)
• duration of remission
• CRh rate
• composite complete remission (CRc) rate
• transfusion conversion rate; transfusion maintenance rate
• transplantation rate
• patient reported fatigue (Brief Fatigue Inventory [BFI])
• adverse events (AEs), safety labs, vital signs, ophthalmologic exams, electrocardiograms and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance scores
● Evaluation of ASP2215 (and metabolites as appropriate) plasma concentration and population pharmacokinetics

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Subject is eligible for the study if all of the following apply:
1. Institutional Review Board-/Independent Ethics Committee-approved written Informed Consent and privacy language as per national regulations (e.g., Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act Authorization for United States sites) must be obtained from the subject or legally authorized representative prior to any study-related procedures (including withdrawal of prohibited medication, if applicable).
2. Subject is considered an adult according to local regulation at the
time of signing informed consent.
3. Subject has a diagnosis of primary AML or AML secondary to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) according to World Health Organization classification [Swerdlow et al, 2008] as determined by pathology review at the treating institution.
4. Subject is refractory to or relapsed after first-line AML therapy (with or without HSCT) (see definition of line of therapy in Appendix 12.6).
• Refractory to first-line AML therapy is defined as:
a) Subject did not achieve CR/CRi/CRp under initial therapy. A subject eligible for standard therapy must receive at least 1 cycle of an anthracycline containing induction block in standard dose for the selected induction regimen. A subject not eligible for standard therapy must have received at least 1 complete block of induction therapy seen as the optimum choice of therapy to induce remission for this subject as per investigator’s assessment.
• Untreated first hematologic relapse is defined as:
a) Subject must have achieved a CR/CRi/CRp (criteria as defined by [Cheson et al, 2003], see Section 5.3) with first line treatment and has hematologic relapse.
5. Subject is positive for FLT3 mutation in bone marrow or whole blood as determined by the central lab. In the investigator's opinion, a subject with rapidly proliferative disease and unable to wait for the central lab results can be enrolled based on a local test performed after completion of the last interventional treatment. Subjects can be enrolled from a local test result if they have any of the following FLT3 mutations: FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD/D835 or FLT3-TKD/I836.
6. Subject has an ECOG performance status ≤ 2.
7. Subject is eligible for preselected salvage chemotherapy according to investigator assessment.
8. Subject must meet the following criteria as indicated on the clinical laboratory tests:
• Serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase ≤ 2.5 x upper limit of normal
(ULN)
• Serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN
• Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN or an estimated glomerular filtration rate of > 50 mL/min as
calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation.
9. Subject is suitable for oral administration of study drug.
10. Female subject must either:
• Be of non-childbearing potential:
- Postmenopausal (defined as at least 1 year without any menses) prior to screening, or
- Documented as surgically sterile (at least 1 month prior to screening)
• Or, if of childbearing potential,
- Agree not to try to become pregnant during the study and for 180 days after the final study drug administration
- And have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening
- And, if heterosexually active, agree to consistently use highly effective contraception per locally accepted standards in addition to a barrier method starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 180 days after the final study drug administration.
11. Female subject must agree not to breastfeed at screening and throughout the study period and for 60 days after the final study drug administration.
12. Female subject must not donate ova starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 180 days after the final study drug administration.
13. Male subject and their female partners who are of childbearing potential must be using highly effective contraception per locally accepted standards in addition a barrier method)starting at screening and continue throughout the study period and for 120 days after the final study drug administration.
14. Male subject must not donate sperm starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 120 days after the final study drug administration.
15. Subject agrees not to participate in another interventional study while on treatment.
Waivers to the inclusion criteria will NOT be allowed. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Subject will be excluded from participation if any of the following apply:
1. Subject was diagnosed as acute promyelocytic leukemia.
