Summary

This early-stage study is testing the safety of two experimental drugs, AG-120 and AG-221, when given together with standard chemotherapy for adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has a specific genetic change (IDH1 or IDH2 mutation). The study involves about 153 participants and will also look at the best dose to use. After initial treatment, some participants may continue taking the study drug alone to help keep the leukemia under control.
