Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The ALLG AMLM26 INTERCEPT trial is an adaptive trial allowing the testing of multiple new therapeutic options targeting various AML biomarkers in a staged manner. The Master Protocol outlines the overall study structure (this is detailed in ANZCTR entry ACTRN12621000439842). There will be separate domains for each AML biomarker being investigated. Each domain will have at least one investigational agent. Each investigational agent may be used on its own and/or in combination with other agents. Each option will be a different treatment arm within a domain. Separate Therapy-Specific Protocol Appendices will include treatment-specific information for each investigational agent including all of the treatment arms specific to that investigational agent. Each treatment arm may be targeted to a specific AML biomarker (domain) and/or may be used when patients have no targetable option available. This entry is for gilteritinib in combination with venetoclax .

Gilteritinib in tablet form will be administered orally with or without food. Venetoclax also in tablet form will be administered orally after food.

A pilot safety run-in phase will be undertaken to verify the tolerability of gilteritinib in combination with venetoclax and to identify the appropriate dose for expansion of the proof-of-concept phase in patients. The first dose level explored will be level 4, if this is not tolerable lower dose levels will be studied.

The dose levels explored will be,
Level 4: Gilteritinib 120mg daily. Administered days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle for 12 cycles.
If the patient is in morphological remission,
Venetoclax 400mg daily. Administered days 2-28 inclusive. No dose ramp-up is required. Venetoclax continues at 400mg daily on days 1- 28 from cycle 2 onwards.
If the bone marrow blasts at screening > 5%, a 3-day dose ramp-up is required for cycle 1. Venetoclax 100mg on day 2, then 200mg on day 3, then 400mg daily on days 4-28. Venetoclax continues at 400mg daily on days 1-28 from cycle 2 onwards.

Level 3: Gilteritinib 120mg daily. Administered days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle for 12 cycles.
If in morphological remission,
venetoclax will be dosed at 400mg daily days 2-21 inclusive. No dose ramp-up is required. Venetoclax continues at 400mg daily on days 1- 21 from cycle 2 onwards.
If bone marrow blasts at screening >5%, a 3-day dose ramp-up is required.
Venetoclax 100mg on day 2, then 200mg on day 3, then 400mg daily on days 4-21. Venetoclax continues daily at 400mg on days 1- 21 from cycle 2 onwards.

Level 2: Gilteritinib 120mg daily. Administered days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle for 12 cycles.
If in morphological remission,
venetoclax will be dosed at 400mg daily days 2-14 inclusive. No dose ramp-up is required. Venetoclax continues at 400mg on days 1-14 from cycle 2 onwards.
If bone marrow blasts at screening >5%, a 2-day dose ramp-up is required.
Venetoclax 100mg on day 2, then 200mg on day 3, then 400mg daily on days 4-14. Venetoclax continues at 400mg on days 1-14 from cycle 2 onwards.

Level 1: Gilteritinib 80mg daily. Administered days 1-28 of a 28-day cycle for 12 cycles.
If in morphological remission, venetoclax will be dosed at 200mg daily days 2-14 inclusive. No dose ramp-up is required. Venetoclax continues at 200mg on days 1-14 from cycle 2 onwards.
If bone marrow blasts at screening >5%, a 2-day dose ramp-up is required.
Venetoclax 100mg on day 2, then 200mg on days 3-14. Venetoclax continues at 200mg on days 1-14 from cycle 2 onwards.

Once the optimal dose is determined in the safety run-in phase enrolment onto a proof-of-concept phase will commence using the dose level deemed tolerable.
Patients will be asked to complete a dose diary to confirm the tablets were taken. In order to monitor adherence to the interventions patients will be asked to return the gilteritinib and venetoclax containers (with unused tablets or empty containers) to the hospital.

Timepoint [1] 331665 0
The primary endpoint is MRD response within 100 days of Cycle 1 Day 1. MRD response is defined as a reduction of greater than or equal to 1-log in the molecular marker, and/or MRD negativity, or less than 0.1% aberrant disease by flow cytometry
Secondary outcome [1] 411580 0
To investigate the efficacy of distinct treatment sequences in AML patients who fail one or more lines of therapy on study.
Timepoint [1] 411580 0
For each patient, relapse-free periods will be calculated using the same definitions of response and relapse as for the primary and key-secondary endpoints. Patients will continue to have their disease status followed until the end of the trial for up to a maximum of 5 years post-enrolment.
Secondary outcome [2] 410680 0
To investigate the dynamics of MRD response and the duration of clinical benefit in the morphologic and MRD failure strata as a combined outcome. This is assessed by bone marrow and peripheral. blood at screening, and end of cycle 1, 2,3,6,12, end of months 18 and 24 post treatment commencement.

Pilot Phase – Safety Run-In
A Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design will be used to verify the feasible doses for the combination therapy. The BOIN design is implemented in a way that is similar to the traditional 3+3 design. The target toxicity rate for the feasible expansion dose is Phi equal to 0.33 and the maximum sample size is 12. Patients will be enrolled and treated in cohorts of size 3. After the safety run-in is completed, selection of the dose level for expansion will be guided by isotonic regression as specified in Liu and Yuan (2015). This computation will be performed using the shiny app “BOIN” available at http://www.trialdesign.org.

Statistical Analysis of the Primary Endpoint
Response rates will be calculated as percentages within the MRD “treatment failure” stratum. 95% credible intervals will be calculated and will utilise a minimally informative prior for the response rate (median response rate equal to 35%).
A Bayesian proof-of-concept approach will be adopted for the statistical analysis and reporting of the primary outcome.
Decisions to terminate or expand accrual in a treatment arm within the FLT3/CBL domain will be based primarily on the observed response rate calculated for the MRD “treatment failure” response stratum
Proof-of-concept (PoC) for the efficacy of the gilteritinib/venetoclax therapy in the MRD failure stratum for FLT3 mutated patients will be inferred if two criteria are met:
1. Observed response rate greater than or equal to 40%.
2. Posterior probability that the true response rate is greater than or equal to 30% (the futility rate), given the data, is greater than or equal to 0.90 (the level of proof).

Monitoring of the dual criteria will commence when the first 10 MRD failure patients with FLT3 mutated AML enrolled at the confirmed feasible dose are evaluable for response. Patients in the MRD failure stratum with FLT3-mutated AML who received the feasible dose during the pilot phase will be included in the analyses of response. It is envisaged that these criteria will be assessed whenever data become available for every 5 patients thereafter up to 30 patients. It is further envisaged that PoC, for MRD failure FLT3-mutated patients, can be declared (and published) at any time after evaluation of the first 10 patients.
In addition to early declaration of PoC, the TMC has the discretion to terminate a treatment arm early if there is evidence of futility. The dual-criteria guidelines for (non-binding) early stopping for futility are:
1. Observed response rate less than 40%.
2. Posterior probability that the true response rate is greater than or equal to 30%, given the data, is less than or equal to 0.10.
Monitoring of the dual criteria for futility will also commence when the first 10 patients with FLT3- mutated AML in the MRD failure stratum are evaluable for response.

When the true response rate is less than 21% the probability that PoC is declared is 5% or less and so the “false positive rate” is controlled below the conventional 5% level .

For true response rates in the vicinity of the futility rate (30%) the probability of an indeterminate outcome can be as high as 53% and the expected sample size is more than 22 patients when the planned number of patients enrolled at the confirmed feasible dose is 30.
