Venetoclax in Children With Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
Venetoclax in Children With Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
A study to evaluate if the randomized addition of venetoclax to a chemotherapy backbone
(fludarabine/cytarabine/gemtuzumab ozogamicin [GO]) improves survival of
children/adolescents/young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 1st relapse who are
unable to receive additional anthracyclines, or in 2nd relapse.

Inclusion Criteria:
Participants must have enrolled on APAL2020SC, NCT Number: NCT04726241 prior to enrollment on ITCC-101/APAL2020D. (This is only applicable for participants in USA/Canada/Australia/New Zealand sites/LLS territory).
Participants must be 29 days of age and 21 years of age at enrollment.
Participants must have one of the following:
Children, adolescents, and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia without FLT3/internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation in:
Second relapse, who are sufficiently fit to undergo another round of intensive chemotherapy
First relapse who per investigator discretion cannot tolerate additional anthracycline containing chemotherapy.
Participants must have a performance status corresponding to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scores of 0, 1 or 2 ( 50% Lansky or Karnofsky score)
Participants 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 start of protocol treatment:
Cytotoxic chemotherapy: Must not have received cytotoxic chemotherapy within 14 days prior to start of protocol treatment, except for corticosteroids, low dose cytarabine or hydroxyurea that can be given up to 24 hours prior to start of protocol treatment.
Intrathecal cytotoxic therapy: No wash-out time is required for participants having received any combination of intrathecal cytarabine, methotrexate, and/or hydrocortisone.
Antibodies: 21 days must have elapsed from infusion of last dose of an antibody-drug conjugate before start of protocol treatment. For unmodified antibodies or T cell engaging antibodies, 2 half-lives must have elapsed before start of protocol treatment. Any toxicity related to prior antibody therapy must be recovered to Grade 1.
Interleukins, Interferons and Cytokines (other than Hematopoietic Growth Factors): 21 days after the completion of interleukins, interferon or cytokines (other than Hematopoietic Growth Factors) before start of protocol treatment.
Hematopoietic growth factors: 14 days after the last dose of a long-acting growth factor (e.g., pegfilgrastim) or 7 days for short-acting growth factor before start of protocol treatment.
Radiation therapy (RT) (before start of protocol treatment):
14 days have elapsed for local palliative RT (small port);
84 days must have elapsed if prior craniospinal RT or if 50% radiation of pelvis;
42 days must have elapsed if other substantial bone marrow (BM) radiation.
Stem Cell Infusions (before start of protocol treatment):
84 days since allogeneic (non-autologous) bone marrow or stem cell transplant (with or without total body irradiation [TBI]) or boost infusion (any stem cell product; not including donor lymphocyte infusion [DLI])
No evidence of active graft versus host disease (GVHD).
Participants who are receiving cyclosporine, tacrolimus or other agents to treat or prevent either graft-versus-host disease post bone marrow transplant or organ rejection post-transplant are not eligible for this trial. Participants must be off medications to treat or prevent either graft-versus-host disease post bone marrow transplant or organ rejection post-transplant for at least 14 days prior to enrollment.
Cellular Therapy: 42 days after the completion of donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) or any type of cellular therapy (e.g., modified T cells, natural killer [NK] cells, dendritic cells, etc.) before start of protocol treatment.
Participants with prior exposure to venetoclax are eligible in this trial
