Vyxeos for Re-induction Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients With Persistent Disease After Induction

Is NCT04049539 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 1/2 trial studies Liposome-encapsulated Daunorubicin-Cytarabine for blasts more than 5 percent of bone marrow nucleated cells.

Phase 1/2RecruitingOhio State University Comprehensive Cancer CenterNCT04049539Data as of May 2026

Treatment: Liposome-encapsulated Daunorubicin-CytarabineThis phase II trial studies the side effects and how well Vyxeos works in treating patients with intermediate and high-risk acute myeloid leukemia who have failed an initial cycle of standard cytarabine and daunorubicin chemotherapy. Vyxeos is a combination of both chemotherapy drugs cytarabine and daunorubicin contained in a liposome. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cytarabine and daunorubicin given together in liposomes may have fewer side effects and work better than cytarabine and daunorubicin given alone in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Biomarker criteria

Excluded: TP53 inactivating mutation

Performance status

ECOG 0–2(Ambulatory, capable of self-care)

Prior therapy

Min 1 prior line

Must have received: cytotoxic chemotherapy (cytarabine, daunorubicin) — induction

Patients must have received standard continuous infusion cytarabine and daunorubicin (cytarabine 100-200 mg/m^2 by continuous infusion on days 1-7 and daunorubicin 45-90 mg/m^2 on days 1-3) within the 14-33 days prior to starting trial treatment and have documented persistent disease (13-29 days from the start of 7+3 treatment). Patients who have received a 7+3 regimen utilizing idarubicin (12 mg/m^2 on days 1-3) in place of daunorubicin may enroll.

Cannot have received: investigational agent

Patients who have received an investigational agent (for any indication) within 5 half-lives of the agent and until toxicity from this has resolved to grade 1 or less; if the half-life of the agent is unknown, patients must wait 4 weeks prior to first dose of study treatment.

Lab requirements

Kidney function

Calculated creatinine clearance > 40 mL/min OR serum creatinine < 1.5 x ULN

Liver function

AST < 5 x ULN; ALT < 5 x ULN; total bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN (except for patients with known Gilbert's syndrome)

Cardiac function

Normal left ventricular ejection fraction (>= 50% by echocardiography or multi-gated acquisition radionuclide angiocardiography [MUGA]) and lifetime daunorubicin dose of less than 418 mg/m^2 (including recent course of 7+3); AST < 5 x ULN; ALT < 5 x ULN; total bilirubin < 1.5 x ULN (except for patients with known Gilbert's syndrome); Calculated creatinine clearance (according to the Cockcroft-Gault equation) > 40 mL/min OR serum creatinine < 1.5 x the ULN for the local laboratory
