A Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase III Trial of the FLT3 Inhibitor Gilteritinib Administered as Maintenance Therapy Following Allogeneic Transplant for Patients With FLT3/ITD AML

The purpose of this study is to compare relapse-free survival between participants with
FLT3/ITD AML in first morphologic complete remission (CR1) who undergo hematopoietic stem
cell transplant (HCT) and are randomized to receive gilteritinib or placebo beginning after
the time of engraftment for a two year period.

Participants with FLT3/ITD AML in first morphologic complete remission (CR1) undergoing
allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) will be randomized to receive
gilteritinib or placebo 30 to 90 days after HCT for a two year period. Participants will be
stratified according to: 1) conditioning regimen intensity (myeloablative vs. reduced
intensity/non-myeloablative), 2) time from first day of hematopoietic cell infusion to
randomization (30-60 days vs. 61-90 days) and 3) presence vs absence of or unknown minimal
residual disease (MRD) from the most recent pre-registration bone marrow (BM) aspirate.

Registration Inclusion Criteria

- Participant is considered a suitable candidate for HCT and has an acceptable source of
allogeneic donor stem cells, as defined per institutional practice (allogeneic HCT for
any donor source [matched sibling, unrelated donor (URD), mismatched URD, related
haploidentical, or umbilical cord blood] and any graft source [umbilical cord, BM,
peripheral blood (PB)], and any conditioning [myeloablative conditioning (MAC),
reduced intensity conditioning (RIC), or non-myeloablative conditioning (NMA)] will be
permitted).

- Participant is considered a legal adult by local regulation at the time of signing
informed consent form (ICF).

- Participant consents to allow access to diagnostic BM aspirate or PB sample and/or the
DNA derived from that sample, if available, that may be used to validate a companion
diagnostic that is being developed in parallel with gilteritinib.

- Participant has confirmed, morphologically documented AML in CR1. For the purposes of
registration, CR1 will be defined as < 5% blasts in the BM with no morphologic
characteristics of acute leukemia (e.g., Auer Rods) in the BM with no evidence of
extramedullary disease such as central nervous system involvement or granulocytic
sarcoma.

- Participant has not received more than 2 cycles of induction chemotherapy to
achieve CR1. The induction cycles can be the same regimen or different regimens.
The regimen(s) may contain conventional agents, investigational agents, or a
combination of both.

- Participants with CR with incomplete count recovery (CRp or CRi) are allowed.
Incomplete platelet recovery (CRp) is defined as CR with platelet count < 100 x
109/L. Incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) is defined as CR with residual
neutropenia < 1 x 109/L with or without complete platelet recovery. Red blood
cell count (RBC) and platelet transfusion independence is not required.

- The maximum time allowed from establishment of CR1 to registration is 12 months.

- Participant has presence of the FLT3/ITD activating mutation in the BM or PB as
determined by the local institution at diagnosis.

- Participant must meet the following criteria as indicated on the clinical laboratory
tests:

- Serum creatinine within normal range, or if serum creatinine outside normal
range, then glomerular filtration rate (GFR) > 40 mL/min/1.73m2 as calculated
with the Cockcroft-Gault equation with adjustment if total body weight is ≥ 125%
of ideal body weight.

- Total bilirubin (TBL) ≤ 2.5 mg/dL, except for participants with Gilbert's
syndrome.

- Serum AST and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) < 3 x institutional upper limit
of normal (ULN).

- Serum potassium and magnesium greater than the institutional lower limit of
normal (LLN).

- Participant has left ventricular ejection fraction at rest ≥ 40%.

- Participant has diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) (corrected
for hemoglobin) ≥ 50% predicted and/or forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) ≥
50% predicted.

- Female participants must either:

- Be of non-childbearing potential:

- postmenopausal (defined as at least 1 year without menses) prior to screening or

- documented as surgically sterilized (at least 1 month prior to the screening
visit)

- Or, if of childbearing potential,

- Agree not to try to become pregnant during the study for 6 months after the final
study drug administration

- And have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening

- And, if heterosexually active, agree to consistently use highly effective
contraception per locally accepted standards in addition to a barrier method
starting at screening and throughout the study period and for 6 months after the
final study drug administration.

- For United Kingdom sites:

- Highly effective forms of birth control include:

- Consistent and correct usage of established hormonal contraceptives that inhibit
ovulation

- Established intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS)

- Female participants must agree not to breastfeed or donate ova throughout the study
drug treatment period and for 6 months after the final study drug administration.

- Male participants (even if surgically sterilized), and partners who are women of
childbearing potential must be using highly effective contraception in addition to a
barrier method throughout the study drug treatment period and for 127 days after the
final study drug administration.

- For United Kingdom sites:

- Highly effective forms of birth control include:

- Consistent and correct usage of established hormonal contraceptives that inhibit
ovulation

- Established IUD or IUS

- Vasectomy (A vasectomy is a highly effective contraception method provided the
absence of sperm has been confirmed. If not, an additional highly effective
method of contraception should be used.)

- Male is sterile due to a bilateral orchiectomy

- Male participants must not donate sperm throughout the study drug treatment period and
for 127 days after the final study drug administration.

- Participant is able to take an oral medication.

- Participant agrees not to participate in another interventional study while on
treatment.

Randomization Inclusion Criteria

- Participant is ≥ 30 days and ≤ 90 days from hematopoietic cell infusion.

- Participant has achieved engraftment. Engraftment is defined as ANC ≥ 500 cells/μL and
platelets ≥ 20000/μL on 3 consecutive measurements (each occurring at least 1 day
apart). The participant must not have had a platelet transfusion within 7 days prior
to the first measurement.

- Participant has confirmed ongoing morphologically documented AML in CR1. For the
purposes of randomization, CR1 will be defined as < 5% blasts with no morphologic
characteristics of acute leukemia (e.g., Auer Rods) in the BM with no evidence of
extramedullary disease such as central nervous system involvement or granulocytic
sarcoma.

- Participant meets the following criteria as indicated on the clinical laboratory
