Comparing New Treatments for People With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia That Has an IDH2 Gene Change (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)
Recruiting
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial studies how well ASTX727 and venetoclax plus enasidenib works compared to ASTX727 and venetoclax alone for the treatment of older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or younger patients who are considered unfit for standard treatment, and who have an abnormal change (mutation) in the IDH2 gene. This gene mutation can cause AML to grow and spread. This trial is being done to see if adding enasidenib to the usual treatment can help mo... Read More

A Study of CT-388 in Participants Who Are Overweight or Obese With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Recruiting
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group dose-finding study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CT-388 at low, middle, and high doses in participants who are overweight or obese with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Testing the Addition of an IDH2 Inhibitor, Enasidenib, to Usual Treatment (Cedazuridine-Decitabine) for Higher-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) With IDH2 Mutation (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)
Recruiting
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment of cedazuridine-decitabine (ASTX727) to the combination treatment of ASTX727 and enasidenib in treating patients with higher-risk, IDH2-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs, decitabine and cedazuridine. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have... Read More
