A Master Protocol for Biomarker-Based Treatment of AML (The Beat AML Trial)
Summary: This screening and multi-sub-study Phase 1b/2/3 trial will establish a method for genomic screening followed by assigning and accruing simultaneously to a multi-study Master Protocol (BAML-16-001-M1). The specific subtype of acute myeloid leukemia will determine which sub-study, within this protocol, a participant will be assigned to evaluate investigational therapies or combinations with the ulti...
Randomized Study to Assess Revumenib in Combination With Azacitidine + Venetoclax in Adult Patients With Newly Diagnosed NPM1-mutated or KMT2A-rearranged AML Ineligible for Intensive Chemotherapy
Summary: Treatment of patients with newly diagnosed AML who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy has remained an area of high unmet medical need. The combination therapy with two medicines, azacitidine and venetoclax, is the usual plan of action. This has brought significant progress in the treatment, but it nevertheless is not curative and the disease does relapse over time. Revumenib blocks a spec...
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of Revumenib in Combination With Intensive Chemotherapy in Participants With Newly Diagnosed AML With an NPM1 Mutation
Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess if adding revumenib to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes in participants with AML with certain genetic mutations compared to chemotherapy alone. The study will also assess the safety of adding revumenib to chemotherapy.

WARNING: DIFFERENTIATION SYNDROME, QTc PROLONGATION and TORSADES DE POINTES
Differentiation syndrome, which can be fatal, has occurred with REVUFORJ. Signs and symptoms may include fever, dyspnea, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates, pleural or pericardial effusions, rapid weight gain or peripheral edema, hypotension, and renal dysfunction. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, immediately initiate corticosteroid therapy and hemodynamic monitoring until symptom resolution. [see .
QTc prolongation and Torsades de Pointes have occurred in patients receiving REVUFORJ. Correct hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia prior to and during treatment. Do not initiate REVUFORJ in patients with QTcF > 450 msec. If QTc interval prolongation occurs, interrupt, reduce, or permanently discontinue REVUFORJ.
1CONTRAINDICATIONS
None.
2ADVERSE REACTIONS
The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
- Differentiation Syndrome
- QTc Interval Prolongation and Torsades de Pointes
2.1Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The safety of REVUFORJ reflects exposure in 241 patients (207 adult and 34 pediatric patients) with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute leukemia with a
Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 9 (4%) patients who received REVUFORJ, including 4 with sudden death, 2 with differentiation syndrome, 2 with hemorrhage, and 1 with cardiac arrest. Serious adverse reactions were reported in 184 (76%) patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions (≥ 10%) were infection (29%), febrile neutropenia (20%), bacterial infection (15%), differentiation syndrome (13%), and hemorrhage (11%).
Adverse reactions leading to dose interruption occurred in 49% of patients. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 5%) leading to dose interruption were electrocardiogram QT prolonged, infection, febrile neutropenia, differentiation syndrome, nausea, and hypokalemia. Adverse reactions leading to dose reduction occurred in 12% of patients who received REVUFORJ. Adverse reactions leading to a dose reduction (≥ 5%) included electrocardiogram QT prolonged. Adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation occurred in 20% of patients. Adverse reactions resulting in permanent discontinuation (> 1%) included infection.
The most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions were phosphate increased, hemorrhage, nausea, infection without identified pathogen, aspartate aminotransferase increased, alanine aminotransferase increased, creatinine increased, musculoskeletal pain, febrile neutropenia, electrocardiogram QT prolonged, potassium decreased, parathyroid hormone intact increased, alkaline phosphatase increased, diarrhea, bacterial infection, triglycerides increased, differentiation syndrome, fatigue, edema, viral infection, phosphate decreased, decreased appetite, and constipation.
The common adverse reactions are summarised in Table 7.
Clinically relevant adverse reactions in less than 20% of patients who received REVUFORJ include:
Cardiac disorders: Premature ventricular complex, cardiac failure, pericardial effusion, ventricular tachycardia, cardiac arrest
Endocrine disorders: Hyperparathyroidism
Eye disorders: Cataract
Gastrointestinal disorders: Abdominal pain

Immune system disorders: Drug hypersensitivity
Metabolism and nutrition disorders: Hyponatremia, hyperkalemia
Nervous system disorders: Taste disorder, syncope, headache, paresthesia
Renal disorders: Renal impairment
Skin and subcutaneous disorders: Rash
Changes in selected post-baseline laboratory values that were observed in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia are shown in Table 8.
