Study #2019-0351
A Phase I/II Study of Liposomal Cytarabine and Daunorubicin (CPX-351) in Combination with Quizartinib in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)
MD Anderson Study Status
Enrolling
Treatment Agent
Liposome-encapsulated Daunorubicin-Cytarabine, Quizartinib
Description
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of CPX-351 in combination with quizartinib for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and high risk myelodysplastic syndrome. CPX-351, composed of chemotherapy drugs daunorubicin and cytarabine, works 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. Quizartinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The goal of this study is to learn if the combination of CPX-351 and quizartinib can help to control acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.
