Trial Description

The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) of
bleximenib in phase 1 Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine the safety and
tolerability at RP2D in Phase 1 Part 2 (Dose expansion). The purpose of the Phase 2 part
of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bleximenib at the RP2D.

Eligibility Requirements

Inclusion Criteria:

Phase 1:

- Age 2 years to less than (<) 18 years of age (pediatric cohort only), all other
cohorts 18 years and above

- Relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute leukemia and has exhausted, or is ineligible for,
available therapeutic options

- Acute leukemia harboring histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A),
nucleophosmin 1 gene (NPM1) or nucleoporin 98 gene or nucleoporin 214 gene (NUP98 or
NUP214) alterations

Phase: 2

- Participants greater than 18 years are eligible

For Both Phase 1 and 2:

- Pretreatment clinical laboratory values meeting the following criteria: (a)
Hematology: white blood cell (WBC) count <= 20*10^9/liter (L) and (b) renal
function; For adult participants, estimated or measured glomerular filtration rate

participants an estimated or measured glomerular filtration rate >=40 mL/min per the
CKiD (Chronic Kidney Disease in Children) Schwartz formula

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status grade of 0, 1 or 2.
Pediatric participants only: Performance status >=70 by Lansky scale (for
participants < 16 years of age) or >=70 Karnofsky scale (for participants >=16 years
of age)

beta-human chorionic gonadotropin at screening and within 48 hours prior to the
first dose of study treatment

allogenic bone marrow or stem cell transplant <=3 months before the first dose of
study treatment ; b. Has evidence of graft versus host disease; c. Received donor
lymphocyte infusion <=1 month before the first dose of study treatment; d. Requires
immunosuppressant therapy (exception: daily doses <=10 milligrams (mg) prednisone or
equivalent are allowed for adrenal replacement)

2 weeks prior to enrollment. Additional prior cancer therapies must not be given
within 4 weeks prior to enrollment or 5 half-lives of the agent (whichever is
shorter)
