Studies to Assess Ziftomenib in Combination With Ven+Aza or 7+3 in Patients With Untreated NPM1-m or KMT2A-r AML

Ziftomenib is an investigational drug in development for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with eligible genetic alterations. Ziftomenib is a type of therapy known to target the menin pathway in cancer cells. This protocol has 2 separate studies that will investigate the benefits and risks of adding ziftomenib to standard-of-care (SOC) AML treatments in patients with certain genetic mutations who have not received any treatment for their AML. In the first study, the Nonintensive Therapy Study, older patients or those with serious medical problems will receive the SOC therapies venetoclax (ven) and azacitidine (aza), plus either ziftomenib or a placebo. In the second study, the Intensive Therapy Study, medically fit patients will receive (a) the SOC therapies cytarabine and daunorubicin, plus either ziftomenib or a placebo during a first treatment phase called induction, (b) cytarabine plus either ziftomenib or a placebo during a second treatment phase called consolidation, and (c) ziftomenib or a placebo during a third treatment phase called maintenance. The physician will determine which study is the appropriate treatment for the patient, but neither the patient nor their physician will know whether the patient has been assigned to receive ziftomenib or a placebo. This design is called "double-blinded".

Key Inclusion Criteria: The following criteria apply to both the Nonintensive Therapy Study and the Intensive Therapy Study unless otherwise noted: * Age ≥18 years at time of signing the informed consent form. * Diagnosis of AML per the 2022 WHO Classification of Hematolymphoid Tumors (5th Edition). * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, 1, or 2. * Adequate liver and kidney function according to protocol requirements. * A female of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception from the time of screening through 180 days following the last dose of study intervention. A male with a female partner of childbearing potential must agree to use abstinence or adequate contraception from the time of screening through 90 days following the last dose of study intervention. * NONINTENSIVE THERAPY STUDY ONLY (VEN+AZA): 1. Documented NPM1-m. 2. Patients considered ineligible for Intensive Therapy defined by the following: * i. Age ≥75, OR * ii. Age \
