Current Primary Outcome Measures (submitted: January 24, 2020)

Overall Survival in Participants That Received Quizartinib Versus Salvage Chemotherapy [ Time Frame: At approximately 3 years 9 months ]

Overall Survival is defined as the time (in weeks) from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Median and quartiles are calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Original Primary Outcome Measures (submitted: January 16, 2014)

Overall Survival [ Time Frame: 1 year ]

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether quizartinib monotherapy prolongs overall survival (OS) compared to salvage chemotherapy in subjects with FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3-ITD) positive Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who are refractory to or have relapsed within 6 months, after first-line Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) therapy.

Current Secondary Outcome Measures (submitted: January 24, 2020)

Event-free Survival in Participants That Received Quizartinib Versus Salvage Chemotherapy [ Time Frame: At approximately 3 years 9 months ]

Event-free survival is defined as the time (in weeks) from randomization until documented refractory disease, relapse after complete composite remission (CRc), or death from any cause, whichever is observed first.

Original Secondary Outcome Measures (submitted: January 16, 2014)

Event-Free Survival [ Time Frame: 1 year ]

The secondary objective is to determine event-free survival (EFS) with quizartinib versus salvage chemotherapy.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Provision of written informed consent approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) with privacy language in accordance with national regulations (e.g., Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] authorization for United States [US] sites) prior to any study related procedures, including withdrawal of prohibited medications if applicable.
2. Age ≥ 18 years or the minimum legal adult age (whichever is greater) at the time of Informed consent.
3. Morphologically documented primary Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or AML secondary to Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), as defined by World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, as determined by pathology review at the study site.

5. Presence of the FLT3-ITD activating mutation in bone marrow or peripheral blood (allelic ratio as determined by a central laboratory with a cutoff of ≥3% FLT3-ITD/total FLT3). If a specimen has been sent for FLT3-ITD testing at the central laboratory but the subject requires treatment for AML before the central FLT3-ITD test result is available, a local test result may be acceptable for randomization after consultation with the Medical Monitor.

9. Serum creatinine ≤1.5×upper limit of normal (ULN), or glomerular filtration rate >25 mL/min, as calculated with the Cockcroft-Gault formula.
10. Serum potassium, magnesium, and calcium (serum calcium corrected for hypoalbuminemia) within institutional normal limits. Subjects with electrolytes outside the normal range will be eligible if these values are corrected upon retesting following any necessary supplementation.
11. Total serum bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN.
12. Serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and/or alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤2.5×ULN.

Exclusion Criteria:

6. History of or current, central nervous system involvement with AML.
7. Clinically significant coagulation abnormality, such as disseminated intravascular coagulation.
8. Prior treatment with quizartinib or participated in a prior quizartinib study.
9. Prior treatment with a FLT3 targeted therapy including sorafenib or investigational FLT3 inhibitors (not including the multi-kinase inhibitor, midostaurin).

17. In a heterosexually active woman of childbearing potential, unwillingness or inability to use a highly effective contraceptive method for the entire study treatment period and for at least 3 months after study treatment completion. Additionally, for women randomized to chemotherapy, unwillingness to adhere to the restrictions in the respective locally established guidelines and local approved label (prescribing information, Summary of Product Characteristics, or US product insert) from the manufacturer and the Patient Information Leaflet (package insert) as instructed by the Investigator.
18. Pregnancy.
19. Female Subjects must agree to not breastfeed from the time of Screening and throughout the study period, and for 25 days after the final study drug administration.
