Improving Risk Assessment of AML With a Precision Genomic Strategy to Assess Mutation Clearance
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators will prospectively determine whether the relapse-free and overall survival in patients who have cleared their leukemia-associated mutations treated with standard consolidation chemotherapy is superior to what is expected based on historical controls. The investigators will also prospectively determine the relapse-free and overall survival of patients who have not cleared their mutations. Because the relapse rate of patients with persistent mutations is expected to be high, treatment with either standard of care consolidation therapy alone or alloSCT will be permitted, at the discretion of the treating physician.

|---|---|
| Experimental: Cohort A: HiDAC At the time of diagnostic bone marrow biopsy, samples will be clinically sequenced via ClinSeq Patients who have clearance of their leukemia-associated mutations, defined as a LAM VAF <2.5% will be assigned to the high-dose cytarabine consolidation (HiDAC) arm. HiDAC = Standard regimen of cytarabine 1.5 g/m^2 or 3 g/m^2 over 2-3 hours twice a day on Days 1, 3, & 5 of each 28 day cycle for 3-4 cycles. Can be replaced by Onureg with permission from PI. For patients with the FLT3-ITD or a FLT3-TKD mutation, therapy with the FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitor midostaurin is permitted at the discretion of the treating physician. |
Drug: Cytarabine

Procedure: Bone marrow aspiration
Baseline
Approximately 30 days after cytotoxic induction therapy

| Experimental: Cohort B: Investigator's choice (HiDAC, AlloSCT) At the time of diagnostic bone marrow biopsy, samples will be clinically sequenced via ClinSeq Patients who have persistent leukemia-associated mutations, defined as a LAM VAF ≥2.5% will be assigned to the investigator's choice arm. Patients assigned to this arm may received either HiDAC or AlloSCT. HiDAC = Standard regimen of cytarabine 1.5 g/m^2 or 3 g/m^2 over 2-3 hours twice a day on Days 1, 3, & 5 of each 28 day cycle for 3-4 cycles. Can be replaced by Onureg with permission from PI.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Relapse free survival of Cohort A compared to intermediate risk historical control group [Up to 5 years]
Relapse-free survival is the time from study enrollment (morphologic complete remission (CR) or morphologic complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) is required) until documented disease relapse, or death from any cause. CR=Defined as morphologic leukemia-free state, defined as less than 5% blasts in aspirate with marrow spicules and a count of ≥200 nucleated cells and no blasts with Auer rods or any persistence of extramedullary disease.

Patients at Washington University must be enrolled in HRPO# 201011766 ("Tissue Acquisition for Analysis of Genetic Progression Factors in Hematologic Diseases").This is not a requirement for secondary sites. However, secondary sites must provide informed consent forms that document that permission for whole genome, whole exome, and/or genome wide sequencing, and data sharing among institutions, was obtained. Because we will be also be sequencing non-diseased (normal) tissue, the informed consent forms must explicitly ask if patients wish to be informed, (or in the case of their death, their next-of-kin) if a deleterious mutation is identified in their non-diseased tissue, as this may be heritable.
-
Women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control, abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she must inform her treating physician immediately.
-
Able to understand and willing to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:
-
Diagnosis acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t(15;17)(q22;q12); PML-RARA.
-
Therapy-related AML (defined as occurrence of AML due to prior exposure to chemotherapy or radiation for malignancy).
-
Secondary AML (defined as development of AML in patients with an antecedent hematological malignancy).
-
Has a medical or psychosocial conditions that would prevent study compliance.
-
Known seropositivity for or active viral infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), or hepatitis C virus (HCV). Patients who are seropositive because of hepatitis B vaccine are eligible.
