Summary

This trial is testing a new targeted therapy for AML patients. The therapy, GO-203-2C, is being tested both alone and in combination with decitabine. This is a Phase I/II clinical trial, which means they are testing both the safety and effectiveness of the new therapy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that's come back or didn't respond to initial treatment. They should be in decent health otherwise, not pregnant, and willing to use birth control. People with severe heart issues, active infections, recent major surgery, or HIV can't join.
What is being tested?
The study tests GO-203-2C alone and combined with Decitabine as treatments for AML. It aims to find the safest dose of GO-203-2C and see how well it works against leukemia cells without harming normal cells.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions specific to where the drug acts on cancer cells but may also affect normal cell function leading to blood count changes, fatigue, digestive issues or potential liver and kidney-related symptoms.
