Organization (WHO) Classification as persisting or recurring following 1 or more
treatment courses (exceptions noted in exclusion criteria). Subjects must be
intolerant to or ineligible for available therapies (eg, patients with FLT3 ITD/TKD
mutations must have failed FLT3 inhibitors like midostaurin).

cytometry using an antibody targeting CD135 (FLT3)

immunophenotype by flow cytometry.
- Subject must have a donor or stem cell source identified for allogeneic
transplantation, either related (7/8 or 8/8 allele matched or haploidentical),
unrelated (7/8 or 8/8 allele matched donor), or cord blood stem cell source (at least
4/6 matched).
- Karnofsky performance score greater than or equal to 50 (for subjects aged greater
than or equal to 16 years) or Lansky (for subjects aged less than 16 years)
performance score greater than or equal to 50.
- Adequate organ function, defined as follows: Coagulation function: prothrombin
timeprothrombin time/international normalization ratio (PT/INR) and partial
thromboplastin time (PTT) less than or equal to 1.5 x Institutional Upper Limit of
Normal Renal function as follows: Estimated Glomerular filtration rate by
institutional formula greater than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or serum creatinine less than 2
times upper limit of normal (ULN) for the subject's age. Hepatic function: aspartate
aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase less
than 3 X upper limit of normal ULN. Total bilirubin less than 1.5 X upper limit of
normal ULN. Cardiac function: Cardiac ejection fraction greater than or equal to 50%,
no evidence of pericardial effusion as determined by an echocardiogram or Multigated
Acquisition (MUGA) scan, and no clinically significant ECG findings.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APML).
- Active extramedullary AML in the central nervous system (CNS).
- Subjects with a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment is
not anticipated to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the
investigational regimen may be included only after discussion with the Amgen Medical
Monitor.
- History of Down syndrome or any DNA fragility syndromes such as Bloom's syndrome.
- Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) within 6 weeks prior to
enrollment
- Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) within 3 months prior to
enrollment

- Subjects with history or presence of clinically relevant non-malignant CNS disease
requiring treatment (eg, uncontrolled seizures)
- Subjects with clinically relevant or uncontrolled active infections
- History or evidence of significant cardiovascular risk including any of the following:
symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina, clinically significant
arrhythmias (eg, ventricular fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia etc.), coronary
angioplasty within 6 months before dosing, intra-cardiac defibrillators or any
clinically relevant concurrent disorder that may pose a risk to subject safety or
interfere with study evaluation, procedures, or completion.
- History of arterial thrombosis (eg, stroke or transient ischemic attack) within 3
months prior to enrollment.
- History of symptomatic deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within 6 months
before enrollment.
- Positive test for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
- Positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HepBsAg)
- Positive for acute or chronic hepatitis C. Exceptions: Acute hepatitis C and
completely cleared of the virus (demonstrated by negative viral load). Chronic
hepatitis C with undetectable viral load defined by sustained virologic response 24
weeks (SVR24) after completion of anti-hepatitis C treatment.
- Received live vaccine(s) within 4 weeks of enrollment.
- Unresolved toxicities from prior antitumor therapy not having resolved to Common
Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0 grade 1 with the
exception of myelosuppression (eg, neutropenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia) or are
stable and well controlled AND there is agreement to allow by both the investigator
and sponsor.
- Treatment with systemic immune modulators including, but not limited to, non-topical
systemic corticosteroids, cyclosporine, and tacrolimus within 2 weeks before
enrollment (exception: low dose systemic corticosteroids if used for blood transfusion
reactions or similar).
- Major surgery within 28 days of enrollment with the exception of biopsy and insertion
of central venous catheter.
- Subject has known sensitivity and immediate hypersensitivity to any components of AMG
553 or lymphodepleting regimen (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine).
- Other anti-cancer therapy (eg, investigational therapy, chemotherapy, antibody
therapy, molecular targeted therapy) within 14 days (or 5 half-lives, whichever is
shorter) prior to leukapheresis. Use of immune checkpoint inhibitors is excluded 3
months prior to leukapheresis.
- Prior treatment with any CAR-T or other genetically modified cell therapy.
- Presence of any clinically relevant indwelling line or drain (eg, percutaneous
nephrostomy tube, biliary drain, or pleural/peritoneal/pericardial catheter).
- History of autoimmune disease (eg, Crohn's, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus)
resulting in end organ injury or requiring systemic immunosuppression/systemic disease
modifying agents within the last 2 years prior to enrollment.
- Females of child-bearing potential who are not willing to practice a highly effective
method(s) of birth control from the time of consent through 6 months after AMG 553
infusion day.
- Females who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding or who plan
to breastfeed from the time of consent through 6 months after AMG 553 infusion day.
- Males who are unwilling to abstain from sperm donation while on study through 6 months
after AMG 553 infusion day.
- Male subjects with a female partner of childbearing potential who are unwilling to
practice sexual abstinence (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use
contraception from the time of consent through 6 months after AMG 553 infusion day.
- Subject likely to not be available to complete all protocol-required study visits or
procedures, and/or to comply with all required study procedures to the best of the
subject and investigator's knowledge.
- History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, condition or disease
that, in the opinion of the investigator or Amgen physician, if consulted, would pose
a risk to subject safety or interfere with the study evaluation, procedures or
completion.
