Purpose

The purpose of the study is to determine whether CEP-701 given in sequence with induction chemotherapy increases the proportion of patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who achieve a second complete remission (CR).

Further study details as provided by Cephalon:

Primary Outcome Measures:

Determine whether CEP-701 given in sequence with induction chemotherapy increases the proportion of patients with relapsed AML who achieve a second complete remission or a complete remission with incomplete platelet count recovery. [ Time Frame: 113 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

- overall survival - event-free survival - remission duration - safety and tolerability of CEP-701 - pharmacokinetics of CEP-701 - CEP-701 inhibitory activity [ Time Frame: 113 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment:	220
Study Start Date:	October 2003
Estimated Study Completion Date:	April 2009
Estimated Primary Completion Date:	April 2009 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
1: Active Comparator Induction chemotherapy with or without sequential treatment with oral CEP-701 at 80 mg bid. For patients with duration of first CR of 1 to 6 months, the induction regimen will be MEC.	Drug: lestaurtinib lestaurtinib with induction regimen of MEC
2: Active Comparator Induction chemotherapy with or without sequential treatment with oral CEP-701 at 80 mg bid. For patients with duration of first CR of more than 6 months to 24 months, the induction regimen will be HiDAC.	Drug: lestaurtinib lestaurtinib with induction regimen of HiDAC
