Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Percentage of Patients With Adverse Events (AEs), Grade 3 & 4 AEs, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), AEs Leading to Discontinuation, and Deaths up to 24 Months (M24).
Baseline up to approximatly 24 months

Safety of Midostaurin was represented by various types of AEs, SAEs \& death up to M24. AE: the appearance of (or worsening of any pre-existing) undesirable sign(s), symptom(s), or medical condition(s) that occur after patient's signed informed consent has been obtained. AE grades to characterize the severity of AEs were based on the Common Terminology Criteria for AEs ver. 4.03 with Grade (Gr) 1: mild; Gr 2: moderate; Gr 3: severe; Gr 4: life-threatening; Gr 5: death related to AE. AEs not related to hematological toxicities were generally of grade 1 or 2 severity. SAE: 1 of the following: is fatal or life-threatening, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, constitutes a congenital anomaly/birth defect, is medically significant, i.e. an event that jeopardizes the patient or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed above, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization with a few exceptions.

Event-free Survival
8years

To perform two predefined subgroup analyses in the age-groups 18-60 years and 61-70 years evaluating the impact of midostaurin given in combination with intensive induction, consolidation including allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and single agent maintenance therapy on event-free survival (EFS) in adult patients with AML exhibiting a FLT3-ITD.

Percentage of Safety Events (Part 1, Japan Only)
up to Day 21 of the first Consolidation cycle; cycle = 28 days

Percentage of Safety Events, defined as death or serious adverse event leading to treatment discontinuation that occurs on or before Day 21 of the first Consolidation cycle. This was determined by the Independent Safety Committee (ISC) to be definitely or probably related to midostaurin. Percentage was calculated based on the percentage of subjects with safety event out of 3 evaluable subjects in Part 1.

Event Free Survival (EFS) (Part 2 - Randomized, Controlled)
up to 3 years after last patient started treatment

Event Free survival is defined as the time from the date of randomization until an EFS event is observed. An EFS event is defined as a failure to obtain a complete remission (CR) within an induction 2, relapse after CR, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. The objective was to evaluate the efficacy based on EFS of midostaurin versus placebo in combination with daunorubicin/cytarabine induction, with high-dose cytarabine consolidation, and with midostaurin single agent continuation therapy in newly diagnosed patients with FLT3-mutated AML.

Proportion of Participants With Relapse Free Survival (RFS) up to 18 Months Post Transplant (Full Analysis Set) by Kaplan-Meier Analysis
date of transplant up to 18 months

Relapse-free survival assesses the clinical benefit of remaining in remission free from relapse or death due to the disease. It was defined as the time from transplant to relapse or death due to the disease. Relapse following complete response was defined as reappearance of leukemic blasts in the peripheral blood or finding more than 5% blasts in the bone marrow.

ArmTypeDescription
MidostaurinEXPERIMENTALPatients went through 3 phases: Induction phase - Day (D)8 to D28 in combination with standard of care (7+3 or 5+2 chemotherapy) up to 2 cycles; Consolidation phase - D8 to D28 in combination with cytarabine up to 4 cycles; Maintenance phase - D1 to D28 up to 12 cycles
PlaceboPLACEBO_COMPARATORPatients took placebo on day 8-21 during induction and consolidation phase; then on days 1-28 for 12 cycles in the continuation (post consolidation) phase.
Standard of Care with MidostaurinEXPERIMENTALPatients received standard of care in the post stem cell transplant (SCT) setting in addition to Midostaurin 50mg twice a day for 12 months (cycles).
Standard of CareACTIVE_COMPARATORPatients received standard of care alone in the post SCT setting
