Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Participants must be ≥18 to <71 years old at the time of signing an informed consent.
- Participants must be capable of giving signed and dated institutional review board or independent ethics committee approved informed consent.
- Participants must have a diagnosis of APL characterized by the presence of the t(15;17) translocation by fluorescence in situ hybridization or cytogenetics, or PML/RARA gene expression via RT-qPCR.
- Participants must be classified as low- or intermediate-risk APL, defined as WBC count ≤10×109/L at diagnosis.
- PART 1 Only: Participants with LR-APL should have completed induction and 3 cycles of Consolidation treatment with IV ATO and ATRA. They should have documented mCR at the time of study entry.
- PART 2 Only: Participants should be ND LR-APL.
You likely can't join if
- Participants who have had treatment for APL with ATRA for >7 days prior to the first dose of study intervention (Part 2 only).
- Participants with a history of other cancers must not be receiving active treatment (with radiation or chemotherapy) and must be free of disease for 2 years prior to the Screening Visit with the exception of localized prostate cancer treated with hormone monotherapy, breast cancer treated with hormone monotherapy, basal cell carcinoma, nonmelanoma skin cancer, or cervical carcinoma in situ.
- Participants with an active, life-threatening, or clinically important uncontrolled systemic infection requiring hospitalization.
- Participants who have a known malabsorption syndrome or other condition that may impair absorption of study medication (eg, gastrectomy) or who are unable to swallow oral medication.
- Participants who have other severe acute or chronic medical conditions (and/or psychiatric conditions or laboratory abnormalities) that may increase the expected risk to the participant (ie, the risk associated with the study participation or study intervention administration) or that may interfere with the interpretation of study results or, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study.
- Immunocompromised participants with increased risk of opportunistic infections, including known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with CD4 counts ≤350 cells/mm3 or history of opportunistic infection in the last 12 months. To ensure that effective antiretroviral therapy, when used in eligible HIV-positive participants, is tolerated and that toxicities are not confusing with investigational drug toxicities, participants should be on an established antiretroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks and have an HIV viral load less than 400 copies/mL prior to the Screening Visit.

- PART 1 Only: Participants with LR-APL should have completed induction and 3 cycles of Consolidation treatment with IV ATO and ATRA. They should have documented mCR at the time of study entry.
- PART 2 Only: Participants should be ND LR-APL.
- Participants must have organ function as defined below: • Serum total bilirubin ≤3.0 mg/dL • Alanine aminotransferase and Aspartate aminotransferase ≤3× upper limit of normal • Creatinine clearance ≥30 mL/min
- Participants must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of ≤2.
- Participants must have a serum or high-sensitivity urine pregnancy test (for females of childbearing potential) that is negative at the Screening Visit and immediately prior to initiation of treatment (first dose of study intervention).
- Participants must be willing and able to comply with the scheduled study visits, treatment plans, including receipt of study intervention at the study site through the end of study period, laboratory tests, contraception guidance, and other procedures. Note: Participants must be willing and able to provide written informed consent and commit to complete the full treatment and follow-up procedures as outlined in the protocol, unless discontinuation is medically indicated or required by the investigator or sponsor.
- Participants who have had treatment for APL with ATRA for >7 days prior to the first dose of study intervention (Part 2 only).
- Participants with a history of other cancers must not be receiving active treatment (with radiation or chemotherapy) and must be free of disease for 2 years prior to the Screening Visit with the exception of localized prostate cancer treated with hormone monotherapy, breast cancer treated with hormone monotherapy, basal cell carcinoma, nonmelanoma skin cancer, or cervical carcinoma in situ.
- Participants with an active, life-threatening, or clinically important uncontrolled systemic infection requiring hospitalization.
- Participants who have a known malabsorption syndrome or other condition that may impair absorption of study medication (eg, gastrectomy) or who are unable to swallow oral medication.

- Immunocompromised participants with increased risk of opportunistic infections, including known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with CD4 counts ≤350 cells/mm3 or history of opportunistic infection in the last 12 months. To ensure that effective antiretroviral therapy, when used in eligible HIV-positive participants, is tolerated and that toxicities are not confusing with investigational drug toxicities, participants should be on an established antiretroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks and have an HIV viral load less than 400 copies/mL prior to the Screening Visit.
- Participants who have a known active or chronic hepatitis B or active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Participants with a history of HCV infection who have completed curative therapy for HCV at least 12 weeks before the Screening Visit and have a documented undetectable viral load at the Screening Visit are eligible for randomization.
- Participants with indications requiring uninterrupted anticoagulation (eg, mechanical heart valves) due to increased risk of hemorrhagic complications during induction (Part 2).
- Pregnant females, breastfeeding females, and males not willing to comply with contraceptive requirements or females of childbearing potential not willing to comply with contraceptive requirements.
- Participants who are likely to withdraw consent at the completion of treatment, or during study follow-up, for the sole purpose of enrolling in another interventional clinical study for APL or another investigational therapy, unless recommended by the investigator or sponsor.
- Participants who have suspected central nervous system involvement with leukemia.
- Participants with Grade ≥2 neuropathy.
- Participants with a history of torsade de pointes.
- Participants with ECG abnormalities, including: • Congenital long QT syndrome. • History or presence of significant ventricular or atrial tachyarrhythmia. • Clinically significant resting bradycardia (<50 beats per minute). • Corrected QT interval (QTc) >450 msec on screening ECG using QTcF, obtained as the mean from 3 QTcF values from a triplicate standard resting ECG at screening. • Right bundle branch block plus left anterior hemiblock, bifascicular block.
- Participants with unresolved related AEs from prior exposure of IV ATO (Part 1 only) unless the AEs are Grade 1 or completely resolved prior to enrollment.

- Participants who received any other investigational agents within 30 days of the Screening Visit or <5 half-lives since completion of previous investigational therapy, whichever is shorter.
