• Genders Eligible for Study: All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Males and females age ≥ 18 yrs;
2. Subjects with histologically confirmed relapsed or treatment refractory AML with the exception of subjects who are in first relapse following a remission >12 months in duration and are eligible for standard therapies (e.g., chemotherapy or stem cell transplantation).
3. Assessment of FLT3 mutation status;

4. Part 2 (Expansion) only: Subject must be able to be stratified into 1 of 3 cohorts:

   • Cohort A: Subjects with a FLT3 mutation (e.g. ITD or D835) with prior FLT3 inhibitor treatment
   • Cohort B: Subjects with a FLT3 mutation (e.g. ITD or D835) without prior FLT3 inhibitor treatment
   • Cohort C: Subjects without a FLT3 mutation at the time of enrollment
5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2;
6. Considered by the investigator to be an appropriate candidate for a Phase 1 clinical study;
7. The interval from prior treatment to time of initiation of FLX925 administration will be ≥ 2 weeks for cytotoxic agents and ≥ 5 half-lives for investigational/non-cytotoxic agents. For patients with rapidly proliferative disease, use of hydroxyurea is allowed if started prior to initiation of study therapy;
8. Clinically significant toxic effects of any prior antitumor therapy (except hydroxyurea) resolved to Grade ≤ 1 before the start of study therapy (bone marrow parameters [Grade 1 to 4 permitted]);
9. Serum AST and ALT ≤ 3 x ULN;
10. Serum bilirubin ≤ 2 x ULN unless due to Gilbert's syndrome or hemolysis or considered to be related to leukemia;
11. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dL or calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) of ≥ 60 mL/hour by the Cockroft-Gault equation;
12. Normal coagulation profile as evidenced by PT and aPTT ≤ 1.5 x ULN;
13. For women of childbearing potential, negative serum pregnancy test;
14. Women of childbearing potential and sexually mature males must agree to use a medically accepted method of contraception throughout the study and for 30 days following the last dose;
15. Ability to swallow tablets without difficulty;
16. Willingness to comply with scheduled visits, drug administration plan, protocol-specified bone marrow biopsies;
17. Written informed consent must be provided.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subjects with AML in their first relapse following a remission >12 months in duration who are eligible for standard therapies (e.g. chemotherapy or stem cell transplantation);
2. Absolute leukemic blast count in peripheral blood >50,000/ microliter;
3. Active, symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) leukemia;
4. History of another malignancy except for the following: adequately treated local non-melanoma skin cancer; in situ cervical carcinoma; adequately treated, papillary, non-invasive bladder cancer; asymptomatic prostate cancer without known metastatic disease and with no requirement for therapy or requiring only hormonal therapy and with normal prostate specific antigen for ≥ 1 year prior to start of study therapy; other adequately treated Stage 1 or 2 cancers currently in complete remission, or any other cancer that has been in complete remission for ≥ 2 years.
5. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease;
6. Significant screening electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities;
7. Significant risk for bleeding due to active peptic ulcer disease or bleeding diathesis or requirement for systemic anticoagulation or history of significant gastrointestinal, urological, intracranial or other significant bleeding within 1 year from the start of treatment;
8. Significant active gastrointestinal disease that might impair absorption of study therapy;
9. Evidence of an ongoing, uncontrolled systemic infection or an uncontrolled local infection requiring therapy at the time of start of study therapy
10. Known or suspected human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or patients who are HIV seropositive;
