Summary

Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in complete remission will receive eltrombopag while undergoing consolidation chemotherapy with high-dose cytarabine. Eltrombopag may help increase the number of platelets during chemotherapy and may help prevent the risk of bleeding.

Phase I will study the side effects, best dose and platelet effects of eltrombopag when given with consolidation chemotherapy. After the maximum safe and tolerated dose and schedule is found in Phase I, the study will proceed to Phase II. Phase II will confirm the dose and schedule of eltrombopag identified in Phase I that can increase platelet counts in patients receiving consolidation therapy.

Interventions

DRUG

Phase I- Cytarabine & Eltrombopag

Cycle 1= Cytarabine 3 g/m² IV twice daily on Days 1, 3 and 5 (Patients \>60 years of age will receive cytarabine 1.5 g/m² IV per dose). Day 1 must start in AM. Eltrombopag (Open-Label) by mouth daily until platelet recovery or for 35 consecutive days, whichever occurs first. Phase I will determine the dose and schedule of Eltrombopag to be used in Phase II. One cycle of consolidation therapy with high-dose cytarabine and eltrombopag will be received on study. Additional chemotherapy may be administered at the investigators discretion without eltrombopag.

DRUG

Phase II- Sequence A

Cytarabine 3 g/m² IV twice daily on Days 1, 3 and 5 (Patients \>60 years of age will receive cytarabine 1.5 g/m² IV per dose). Day 1 must start in AM. Eltrombopag by mouth daily (dose and schedule as determined in Phase I) with 1st cycle of high-dose consolidation chemotherapy and placebo by mouth daily with 2nd cycle. Eltrombopag/placebo will continue until platelet recovery or for 35 consecutive days, whichever occurs first. Additional chemotherapy may be administered at the investigators discretion without eltrombopag.

DRUG

Phase II- Sequence B

Cytarabine 3 g/m² IV twice daily on Days 1, 3 and 5 (Patients \>60 years of age will receive cytarabine 1.5 g/m² IV per dose). Day 1 must start in AM. Placebo by mouth daily with 1st cycle of high-dose consolidation therapy and Eltrombopag by mouth daily (dose and schedule as determined in Phase I) with 2nd cycle. Eltrombopag/placebo will continue until platelet recovery or for 35 consecutive days, whichever occurs first. Additional chemotherapy may be administered at the investigators discretion without eltrombopag.
