Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose
of AMG 900 and the best dosing schedule that can be given to patients with
AML. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
.
Study Objectives / Outcomes
Primary
  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 900 in subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AMG 900 after multiple oral administrations to determine the optimal AMG 900 dose schedule
  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of AMG 900 in subjects with acute AML

Secondary
  • To evaluate the anti-tumor activity of AMG 900 in AML
  • To evaluate the pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of drug exposure on p-Histone H3 expression in leukemic blasts

Exploratory
  • To explore pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationships for safety and/or efficacy endpoints
  • To explore the relationship of tumor biomarkers (Ki67, aurora A and B DNA, mRNA or protein expression, Pgp and BCRP1 expression, survivin messenger ribonucleic acid [mRNA], cell cycle analysis and status of p53 and mutation analysis) to clinical response.
  • To explore molecular profiles to identify signatures that predict response.
  • To investigate the effect of genetic variation in drug metabolism genes, cancer genes, and drug target genes on subject response to AMG 900.
