5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is an open-label, dose-escalating trial to evaluate the MTD and/or dose to be used for further development by evaluation of DLT in course 1 and the safety of volasertib when added to standard intensive salvage chemotherapy with DNX-FLA in paediatric patients with AML after failure of first-line therapy. Furthermore, data on efficacy and PK/PD of volasertib in paediatric patients with AML when added to standard intensive salvage chemotherapy will be collected.
