WARNING
DIFFERENTIATION SYNDROME
Differentiation syndrome, which can be fatal, has occurred with REVUFORJ. Signs and symptoms may include fever, dyspnea, hypoxia, pulmonary infiltrates, pleural or pericardial effusions, rapid weight gain or peripheral edema, hypotension, and renal dysfunction. If differentiation syndrome is suspected, immediately initiate corticosteroid therapy and hemodynamic monitoring until symptom resolution. [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and ADVERSE REACTIONS].
REVUFORJ contains revumenib, a menin inhibitor. Revumenib is present as revumenib citrate hydrate with a chemical name of benzamide, N-ethyl-2-[[4-[7-[[trans-4[(ethylsulfonyl)amino]cyclohexyl]methyl]-2,7-diazaspiro[3.5]non-2-yl]-5-pyrimidinyl]oxy]-5-fluoro-N-methylethyl]-, 2-hydroxypropane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid, hydrate (1:1:1). The molecular formula is C32H47FN6O4S•C6H8O7•H2O with a molecular weight 840.96 g/mol.
Revumenib citrate hydrate is a white to faint pink solid. Revumenib citrate hydrate is soluble at pH 1.2 and 6.8, and sparingly soluble at pH 4.5.
The chemical structure is shown in Figure 1.

REVUFORJ is available as tablets for oral use.
Each 25 mg strength tablet contains 25 mg revumenib, equivalent to 33.4 mg revumenib citrate, and the following inactive ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, crospovidone, hypromellose, sodium bicarbonate, hydrophobic colloidal silica, magnesium stearate, polyvinyl alcohol, titanium dioxide, polyethylene glycol, talc, and red iron oxide.
Each 110 mg strength tablet contains 110 mg revumenib, equivalent to 146.5 mg revumenib citrate, and the following inactive ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, crospovidone, hypromellose, sodium bicarbonate, hydrophobic colloidal silica, magnesium stearate, polyvinyl alcohol, titanium dioxide, polyethylene glycol, talc, red iron oxide, and yellow iron oxide.
Each 160 mg strength tablet contains 160 mg revumenib equivalent to 213.2 mg revumenib citrate, and the following inactive ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, crospovidone, hypromellose, sodium bicarbonate, hydrophobic colloidal silica, magnesium stearate, polyvinyl alcohol, titanium dioxide, polyethylene glycol, talc, red iron oxide, and FD&C blue #2/indigo carmine aluminum lake.
REVUFORJ is indicated for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a lysine methyltransferase 2A gene (KMT2A) translocation in adult and pediatric patients 1 year and older.
Select patients for the treatment of acute leukemia with REVUFORJ based on the presence of a KMT2A translocation in bone marrow cells [see Clinical Studies]. An FDA-approved companion diagnostic for the detection of a KMT2A translocation is not currently available.
The recommended dosage of REVUFORJ varies by patient weight and concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. See Table 1 for the recommended dosage for patients 1 year and older. Do not start REVUFORJ until the WBC is reduced to less than 25 Gi/L. Continue REVUFORJ until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. For patients without disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, treat for a minimum of 6 months to allow time for clinical response.

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The safety of REVUFORJ reflects exposure in 135 patients (104 adult and 31 pediatric patients) with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute leukemia with KMT2A translocation treated with REVUFORJ at a dose approximately equivalent to 160 mg in adults orally twice daily with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor [see Clinical Studies]. The median duration of exposure to REVUFORJ was 2.3 months (range < 1 to 23 months), and 3% of patients were exposed for more than 6 months.
Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 4 (3%) patients who received REVUFORJ, including 2 with differentiation syndrome, 1 with hemorrhage, and 1 with sudden death. Serious adverse reactions were reported in 99 (73%) patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions (≥ 5%) were infection (24%), febrile neutropenia (19%), bacterial infection (17%), differentiation syndrome (12%), hemorrhage (9%), and thrombosis (5%).
Adverse reactions leading to dose interruption occurred in 42% of patients. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 5%) leading to dose interruption were electrocardiogram QT prolonged, febrile neutropenia, differentiation syndrome, infection, hypokalemia, and nausea. Adverse reactions leading to dose reduction occurred in 10% of patients who received REVUFORJ. Adverse reactions leading to a dose reduction (> 1%) included electrocardiogram QT prolonged. Adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation occurred in 12% of patients. Adverse reactions resulting in permanent discontinuation (> 1%) included infection and respiratory failure.
The most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions were hemorrhage, nausea, phosphate increased, musculoskeletal pain, infection, aspartate aminotransferase increased, febrile neutropenia, alanine aminotransferase increased, parathyroid hormone intact increased, bacterial infection, diarrhea, differentiation syndrome, electrocardiogram QT prolonged, phosphate decreased, triglycerides increased, potassium decreased, decreased appetite, constipation, edema, viral infection, fatigue, and alkaline phosphatase increased.

If concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors is required, reduce the REVUFORJ dosage [see Recommended Dosage].
Revumenib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Concomitant use with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increases revumenib systemic exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may increase the risk of REVUFORJ adverse reactions.
Avoid concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers.
Revumenib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Concomitant use with a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer may decrease revumenib and increase M1 systemic exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], which may reduce REVUFORJ efficacy or increase the risk of QT prolongation associated with the M1 metabolite.
Avoid concomitant use of REVUFORJ with other drugs with a known potential to prolong QTc interval. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, obtain ECGs when initiating, during concomitant use, and as clinically indicated [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]. Withhold REVUFORJ if the QTc interval is greater than 480 msec. Restart REVUFORJ after the QTc interval returns to less than or equal to 480 msec [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
REVUFORJ causes QTc interval prolongation [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Concomitant use of REVUFORJ with other drugs that prolong QTc interval may result in an increase in the QTc interval and adverse reactions associated with QTc interval prolongation [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Included as part of the "PRECAUTIONS" Section
REVUFORJ can cause fatal or life-threatening differentiation syndrome (DS). Symptoms of differentiation syndrome, including those seen in patients treated with REVUFORJ, include fever, dyspnea, hypoxia, peripheral edema, pleuropericardial effusion, acute renal failure, and/or hypotension.
In clinical trials, DS occurred in 39 (29%) of 135 patients treated with REVUFORJ at the recommended dosage for relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation, including 32% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 25% of patients with mixed-phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), and 14% of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). DS was Grade 3 or 4 in 13% and fatal in one patient. The median time to onset was 10 days (range 3-41 days). Some patients experienced more than 1 DS event. Treatment interruption was required for 7% of patients, and treatment was withdrawn for 1% [see ADVERSE REACTIONS].
Reduce the white blood cell count (WBC) to less than 25 Gi/L prior to starting REVUFORJ. If DS is suspected, immediately initiate treatment with systemic corticosteroids (e.g., dexamethasone 10 mg intravenously every 12 hours in adults or dexamethasone 0.25 mg/kg/dose intravenously every 12 hours in pediatric patients weighing less than 40 kg) for a minimum of 3 days and until resolution of signs and symptoms. Institute supportive measures and hemodynamic monitoring until improvement. Interrupt REVUFORJ if severe signs and/or symptoms persist for more than 48 hours after initiation of systemic corticosteroids, or earlier if life-threatening symptoms occur such as pulmonary symptoms requiring ventilator support. Restart steroids promptly if DS recurs after tapering corticosteroids [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
REVUFORJ can cause QT (QTc) interval prolongation [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. In the clinical trials, QTc interval prolongation was reported as an adverse reaction in 39 (29%) of 135 patients treated with REVUFORJ at the recommended dosage for relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation; QTc interval prolongation was Grade 3 in 12%. The heart-rate corrected QT interval (using Fridericia’s method) (QTcF) was greater than 500 msec in 8%, and the increase from baseline QTcF was greater than 60 msec in 18%. REVUFORJ dose reduction was required for 5% due to QTc interval prolongation [see ADVERSE REACTIONS]. QTc prolongation occurred in 16% of the 31 patients less than 17 years old, 33% of the 88 patients 17 years to less than 65 years old, and in 50% of the 16 patients 65 years or older.
Correct electrolyte abnormalities, including hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia, prior to treatment with REVUFORJ. Perform an ECG prior to initiation of treatment with REVUFORJ, and do not initiate REVUFORJ in patients with QTcF > 450 msec. Perform an ECG at least once a week for the first 4 weeks on treatment, and at least monthly thereafter [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION ]. In patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval, more frequent ECG monitoring may be necessary. Concomitant use of REVUFORJ with drugs known to prolong the QTc interval may increase the risk of QTc interval prolongation [see DRUG INTERACTIONS, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].
Interrupt REVUFORJ if QTcF increases to greater than 480 msec and less than 500 msec, and restart REVUFORJ at the same dose twice daily after the QTcF interval returns to less than or equal to 480 msec. Interrupt REVUFORJ if QTcF increases to greater than 500 msec or by > 60 msec from baseline, and restart REVUFORJ twice daily at the lower dose level after the QTcF interval returns to less than or equal to 480 msec. Permanently discontinue REVUFORJ in patients with ventricular arrhythmias and in those who develop QTc interval prolongation with signs or symptoms of life-threatening arrhythmia [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, REVUFORJ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of revumenib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused adverse developmental outcomes, including embryo-fetal mortality, malformations, and altered fetal growth at maternal exposures approximately 0.5 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dose.
Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential and males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 4 months after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations and CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].
Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Medication Guide) and Instructions for Use.
Advise patients of the risks of developing differentiation syndrome as early as 1 day after the start of therapy and during treatment. Ask patients to immediately report any symptoms suggestive of differentiation syndrome, such as fever, cough or difficulty breathing, rash, low blood pressure, rapid weight gain, swelling of their arms or legs, or decreased urinary output, to their healthcare provider for further evaluation [see BOX WARNING and WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise patients to consult their healthcare provider immediately if they feel faint, lose consciousness, or have signs or symptoms suggestive of arrhythmia. Advise patients with a history of hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia of the importance of monitoring their electrolytes [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to notify their healthcare provider of a known or suspected pregnancy [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and Use In Specific Populations].
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 4 months after the last dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 4 months after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].
Advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 1 week after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].
Advise females and males of reproductive potential of the potential for impaired fertility from REVUFORJ [see Use In Specific Populations , Nonclinical Toxicology].
Advise patients to inform their healthcare providers of all concomitant products, including over-the counter products and supplements [see DRUG INTERACTIONS].
Advise patients to swallow tablets whole with a cup of water and not to cut or chew tablets. If patients are unable to swallow the tablets, they may be crushed and dispersed in water [see INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE]. Instruct patients that, if they miss a dose of REVUFORJ, to take it as soon as possible on the same day, and at least 12 hours prior to the next scheduled dose, and return to the normal schedule the following day [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].
Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with revumenib. In a repeat dose toxicity study in rats treated with revumenib for 13 weeks, lymphoma was observed in multiple organs in one animal.
Revumenib was not genotoxic in an in vitro bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay, an in vitro micronucleus assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes, or an in vivo rat peripheral blood reticulocyte micronucleus assay.
Fertility studies in animals have not been conducted with revumenib.
In a repeat dose toxicity study in dogs treated with revumenib at 12.5, 25 or 40 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks, microscopic findings in the testes and epididymis consisted of depletion of germ cells and decreased sperm at ≥12.5 mg/kg/day. In females, microscopic changes of atrophy in the mammary glands, uterus, and vagina and decreased number of corpora lutea in the ovaries were observed at ≥12.5 mg/kg/day. At the end of the 13-week recovery period, the findings in the female reproductive organs were reversed at all doses, and the testicular and epididymal effects were reversed at 12.5 mg/kg/day. At the dose of 12.5 mg/kg/day in dogs, exposures (AUC) were approximately 1.3 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dose.
Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], REVUFORJ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.There are no available data on REVUFORJ use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk.
In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of revumenib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused adverse developmental outcomes, including embryo-fetal mortality, malformations, and altered fetal growth at maternal exposures approximately 0.5 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dose (see Data). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.
In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2%-4% and 15%-20%, respectively.
Animal Data
In an embryo-fetal development study, revumenib was administered once daily via oral gavage at doses of 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg/day to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis (gestation days 6-17). Decreased maternal body weight gain and adverse embryo-fetal findings including decreases in the number of live fetuses, increases in resorptions and post-implantation loss, and decreases in fetal body weight were observed at all doses. At 300 mg/kg/day, total litter resorption and eye malformations were observed. At the dose of 30 mg/kg/day in rats, the maternal exposures (AUC) were approximately 0.5 times the human exposure at the recommended dose.
There are no data on the presence of revumenib or its metabolites in human milk or the effects on the breastfed child or milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 1 week after the last dose.
Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, REVUFORJ can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women [see Pregnancy].
Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential within 7 days prior to initiating REVUFORJ.
Females
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 4 months after the last dose.
Males
Advise males of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REVUFORJ and for 4 months after the last dose.
Females and Males
Based on findings in animals, REVUFORJ may impair fertility. The effects on fertility were reversible [see Nonclinical Toxicology].
The safety and efficacy of REVUFORJ have been established in pediatric patients 1 year and older with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation. Use of REVUFORJ for this indication is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled trials in adults and pediatric patients [see Clinical Studies] and additional pharmacokinetic and safety data in pediatric patients [see ADVERSE REACTIONS and CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. The patients included 13 infants (age < 2 years), 41 children (age 2 to < 12 years) and 16 adolescents (age 12 to < 17 years). The recommended dosage in patients weighing less than 40 kg is BSA-based.
The safety and efficacy of REVUFORJ in pediatric patients less than 1 year old have not been established.
In a repeat dose toxicity study in 6-7 week-old rats treated with revumenib at 75, 150, or 300 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks, an irreversible increase in femur growth plate closure was observed at revumenib exposures approximately 2 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dose.
Based on the findings in animals, monitor bone growth and development in pediatric patients.
Of the 135 patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation in clinical studies of REVUFORJ, 16 (12%) patients were 65 years of age and older and 3 (2%) patients were 75 years of age and older [see Clinical Studies].
No overall differences were observed in the effectiveness of REVUFORJ between patients who were 65 years and older and younger patients [see Clinical Studies and CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Compared to younger patients, the incidences of QTc prolongation and edema were higher in patients 65 years and older [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
No Information Provided
None.
Revumenib is a menin inhibitor and blocks the interaction of both wild-type lysine methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A) and KMT2A fusion proteins with menin. The binding of KMT2A fusion proteins with menin is involved in KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2Ar) acute leukemias through activation of a leukemogenic transcriptional pathway. In nonclinical studies using cells that express KMT2A fusions, inhibition of the menin-KMT2A interaction with revumenib altered the transcription of multiple genes including differentiation markers.
In nonclinical in vitro and in vivo studies, revumenib demonstrated antiproliferative and antitumor activity in leukemia cells harboring KMT2A fusion proteins.
Revumenib exposure-response relationships have not been fully characterized and the time course of pharmacodynamic response is unknown.
The effect of REVUFORJ on the QTc interval was evaluated across a dose range of 113 mg to 339 mg twice daily (1.2 times the highest adult approved recommended dosage) with and without strong CYP3A4 inhibitors in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia with KMT2Ar.
The increase in QTc interval was concentration dependent with an increase in QTc predicted to be 27 msec (upper bound of 90% confidence interval: 30 msec) at the mean steady-state maximum concentration (Cmax) observed in patients at the highest approved recommended dosage without CYP3A4 inhibitors. The increase in QTc interval was predicted to be 19 msec (upper bound of 90% confidence interval: 22 msec) at steady-state Cmax after administration of 163 mg twice daily with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
The pharmacokinetics of revumenib were characterized in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia following single and multiple oral administration of revumenib with or without strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Steady-state pharmacokinetic parameters are presented as geometric mean [coefficient of variation (%CV)] unless otherwise specified.

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of revumenib were observed based on age (1 to 82 years), race (71% White, 8% Asian, 8% Black), sex, mild to moderate (CLcr 30 to 89 mL/min) renal impairment, and mild (total bilirubin ≤ upper limit of normal [ULN] and AST > ULN or total bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST) or moderate (total bilirubin > 1.5 to 3 × ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment. The effect of severe renal impairment (CLcr less than 30 mL/min), end-stage renal disease (CLcr less than 15 mL/min), or severe (total bilirubin > 3 × ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment is unknown.
Body weight (8-146 kg) has a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of revumenib, with higher revumenib exposures in patients with lower body weight (less than 40 kg). This supports the use of BSA-based dosage in patients weighing less than 40 kg.
Revumenib geometric mean (CV%) steady-state Cmax was 3137 (39%) ng/mL and AUC0-tau was 14,630 (55%) ng·hr/mL following 95 mg/m2 twice daily (approximately 1.02 times the highest approved recommended adult dosage) with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.
Revumenib predicted geometric mean (%CV) steady-state Cmax was 1597 (70%) ng/mL and AUC0tau was 12,570 (56%) ng·hr/mL following 160 mg/m2 twice daily (approximately 1.02 times the highest approved recommended adult dosage) without strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.
Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors
Revumenib AUC and Cmax is increased by 2-fold following concomitant use of multiple doses of revumenib with certain azole antifungals that are strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (i.e., posaconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole). Similarly, revumenib AUC and Cmax is increased by 2.5-fold following concomitant use of multiple doses of revumenib with cobicistat (strong CYP3A4 inhibitor).
Strong and Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers
Revumenib exposure is expected to decrease and M1 exposure is expected to increase with strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers.
Other Drugs
No clinically significant differences in revumenib pharmacokinetics were observed when used concomitantly with fluconazole (moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor), isavuconazole (moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor).
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes
Revumenib inhibits CYP3A4, but does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP2E1. Revumenib does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4.
Transporter Systems
Revumenib is a substrate of OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, and MATE1, but is not a substrate of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, MATE2-K, or BSEP. M1 is a substrate of OATP1B1, but is not a substrate of P-gp, BCRP, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, OATP1B3, MATE1, or MATE2-K.
Revumenib inhibits MATE1, but does not inhibit P-gp, BCRP, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, BSEP, and MATE2-K. M1 inhibits MATE1, but does not inhibit OAT1, OAT3, OCT2, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, and MATE2-K.
In a repeat dose toxicity study in dogs treated with revumenib at 12.5, 25, or 40 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks, microscopic findings of nerve fiber degeneration in the brain, sciatic nerves, and spinal cord segments were observed at ≥ 12.5 mg/kg/day and were not reversed at the end of a 13-week recovery period.
In a repeat dose toxicity study in rats treated with revumenib at 75, 150, 300 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks, dose dependent ocular findings of lens opacities were observed at ≥ 75 mg/kg/day; the findings progressed during the dosing and recovery periods and were not reversed.
Hyperplasia was observed in multiple organs including the testes, mammary gland, uterus, pancreas, and kidney in rats treated at ≥ 75 mg/kg/day for up to 13 weeks. The findings were irreversible in the testes, mammary gland, and pancreas. Revumenib exposures at 75 mg/kg/day in rats are approximately 2 times the human exposure (AUC) at the recommended dose.
The efficacy of REVUFORJ was evaluated in a single-arm cohort of an open-label, multicenter trial (SNDX-5613-0700, NCT04065399; AUGMENT-101) in adult and pediatric patients at least 30 days old with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation. Patients with an 11q23 partial tandem duplication were excluded. Eligibility required a QTcF < 450 msec at study baseline. Treatment consisted of REVUFORJ at a dose approximately equivalent to 160 mg in adults orally twice daily with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, failure to achieve morphological leukemia-free state by 4 cycles of treatment, or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
The baseline demographic and disease characteristics of the 104 treated patients are shown in Table 10. Twenty-four (23%) patients underwent HSCT following treatment with REVUFORJ.

Efficacy was established on the basis of the rate of complete remission (CR) plus CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh), the duration of CR+CRh, and the rate of conversion from transfusion dependence to transfusion independence. The median follow-up was 5.73 months (range, 0.3 to 28.9 months). The efficacy results are shown in Table 11. On subgroup analysis, CR+CRh was achieved by 18/86 (21%) of patients with AML, 3/16 (19%) of patients with ALL, and 1/2 (50%) of patients with MPAL.
