Summary
This early-phase trial tests whether the drug olutasidenib can safely help people with a specific genetic form of acute myeloid leukemia (IDH1-mutant AML) stay in remission after standard chemotherapy. About 15 participants will take the drug twice daily. The main goals are to see if people can stick with the treatment and if it causes serious side effects.
