Study Description
This is a study of a new oral medication called gilteritinib, to be given in combination with chemotherapy to patients that have acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapse). The leukemia cells need to have a genetic change called "FLT3 ITD" for the patient to be considered for the study. Gilteritinib is an anti-cancer medication that blocks the FLT3 protein when it is abnormal in a leukemia cell.
The main goal of the study will be to establish an optimally safe and biologically active dose of the medication, and then to determine the effect it has on leukemia disease in combination with chemotherapy.
Inclusion Criteria
