Study design 
Multi center, open-label, non-randomized Phase 2 trial. 
Patients with relapsed/refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) 
will receive standard chemotherapy cytosine arabinose (Ara-C) 
100mg/m² days 1-7 and Idarubicin 10 mg/m² days 1, 3, 5 every 4 
weeks (max. 2 cycles) and Selinexor as a flat dose of 60 mg twice 
weekly during weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle starting on Day 2 of 
week 1 (total of 6 doses per induction cycle).  
If a bone marrow CR or CRi was achieved the patient will be 
recommended for stem cell transplantation, which represents the 
end of study treatment.  
If a partial remission was achieved an additional induction cycle will 
be initiated.  
Patients achieving CR or CRi, who are not eligible for SCT will 
receive consolidation therapy with AraC (3 cycles) in parallel to 
maintenance with Selinexor until relapse.  
Patients with >50% blast reduction after 2 cycles will continue 
maintenance with Selinexor until PD. 
Patients will be evaluated for disease status at the end of each 4-
weeks induction cycle and approximately every 3 months after 
allogeneic SCT or CR (or CRi) has been achieved until relapse or 
death, whichever is first. 
Duration of study 
 
The planned number of 40 patients was reached.  
End of enrolment period: June 2016.  
End of study is defined as 2 years after registration of last patient

Treatment scheme 
 
All enrolled patients may participate in an optional baseline 
translational research study. Patients will receive single dose of 
Selinexor (60 mg) after registration and before first induction cycle. 
Bone marrow aspirate samples will be collected pre-dose and 24 
hour post-dose. 
All enrolled patients will be treated with Ara-C at a dose of 100 
mg/m² continuous infusion (day 1-7) and idarubicin at a dose of 10 
mg/m² iv (day 1,3,5) every 4 weeks and Selinexor. If a second 
cycles is applied idarubicin is only given on day 1 and 3). 
Selinexor will be administered at a dose of 60 mg twice weekly 
orally during weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle (day 2,4,9,11,16,18) 
(total of 6 doses per induction cycle). 
If a CR was achieved the patient will be recommended for stem cell 
transplantation and will have his/her end of treatment and will be 
followed for event-free and overall survival. 
If patient has achieved a PR an additional cycle (4 weeks) will be 
initiated. If a CR was achieved the patient will be recommended for 
stem cell transplantation and will be followed for event-free and 
overall survival. 
In patients achieving CR or CRi after 1 or 2 4-week cycles who are 
not eligible or do not undergo additional stem cell transplantation, 
but, in the opinion of the investigator, are benefiting from Selinexor, 
then oral Selinexor dosed twice weekly may be continued parallel 
to consolidation therapy with Ara-C until relapse or toxicity 
develops.  The dose of Ara-C is 3 g/m² IV for 2h every 12 hours at 
3 consecutive days for patients with good performance status and 
younger than 60 years (in total 6 doses). If patients are older than 
60 years the dose is 1 g/m² IV for 2h every 12 hours at 3 
consecutive days. Consolidation with AraC will consist of 3 4-week 
cycles. During consolidation Selinexor dosing (60 mg) will start on 
day 2 and continue twice weekly in weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle 
(total of 6 doses per cycle). Selinexor twice weekly (with ~48 hours 
between two consecutive doses) in weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle at 
a dose of 60 mg (total of 6 doses per 4-week cycle) may continue 
until relapse or for maximally 1 year of treatment.  
Patients achieving a > 50% blast reduction after the end of 2 
induction cycles, not candidates for SCT, and in the opinion of the 
investigator, are benefiting from Selinexor, oral Selinexor dosed 
twice weekly may be continued until PD or for maximally 1 year of 
treatment. Drug administration will occur twice weekly with ~48 
hours between two consecutive doses at a dose of 60 mg. One 
cycle is 4 weeks with 6 doses of Selinexor during weeks 1-3. (e.g.

on Monday and Wednesday or on Tuesday and Thursday or on 
Wednesday and Friday).  
Treatment will continue until progression of disease (PD) or 
unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent by the patients, or 
non-compliance by the patient with protocol requirements. 
Patients for whom none of the above mentioned is achieved after 
2 4-week induction cycles will have their end of treatment and will 
be followed for overall survival.

(complete remission without normalization of peripheral blood 
counts) 
Secondary Endpoints 
 
Partial response rate 
 
Percentage of patients undergoing subsequent allogeneic stem 
cell transplant 


a CR or CRi, Relapse after CR or CRi) 
 
Toxicity (acc. to NCI CTC AE v4.03) 
Exploratory Endpoints 
(Optional Studies)  
 
Limited pharmacokinetics to measure plasma concentration of 
Selinexor 
 
Selinexor-induced changes in mRNA levels of XPO1 and tumor 
suppressor markers 
 
Selinexor-induced changes in plasma cytokine levels 


Efficacy assessment 
Clinical and Bone Marrow Aspirate examinations and safety 
assessments are performed at baseline, at the End of induction 
cycles and if applicable at the end of each consolidation cycle. 
Disease status during maintenance will be evaluated at the end of 
each cycle and Follow-up after SCT every 3 months ± 28 days  
If a patient discontinues treatment due to any other reason than 
disease progression/ death/ withdrawal of informed consent, the 
disease evaluations shall continue until definition of relapse-free 
survival are met. This includes patients who wish to discontinue 
treatment, but agree that further data is captured for the purpose of 
the study (partial withdrawal). 
Safety assessment 
All adverse events occurring during the course of the trial and for 
up to 30 days after the last dose of study medication will be 
captured, documented and reported. Toxicity will be graded twice 
weekly during treatment.

Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
Until recovery of platelets and ANC, hematology assessments are 
done as often as necessary to determine the exact date of recovery 
of platelets and ANC. 
Safety laboratory assessments include complete blood count, time 
to recovery of platelets ≥ 50x 109/L and ≥ 100x 109/L, ANC recovery 
≥ 0.5x 109/L and ≥ 1.0x 109/L, clinical chemistry, including liver 
function test, coagulation, and 12-lead electrocardiogram as well 
as cardiac ultrasound. 
Statistical 
considerations 
Primary Efficacy Parameter 
The primary efficacy measure will be the rate of complete 
responders (CR). 
Secondary Efficacy Parameters 
The secondary efficacy measures: 
 
Rate of partial remissions 
 
Percentage of patients being transplanted after induction 
therapy 
 
Early death rate 
will be analyzed as rates. 
 
Overall survival (OS); 
 
Event-free survival (Events are defined as Death, not 
achieving a CR or CRi, Relapse after CR or CRi) 
will be described by median survival time and respective 95%-
confidence intervals. 
Sample size 
calculation 
The sample size calculation is based on the evaluation of response 
rates according to Fleming for single-stage phase II designs. For 
the Fleming's procedure the two response levels p0 (expected CR 
rate) and p1 (meaningful increase in CR rate) are specified as 
p0=30% and p1=60%: 
N=25 patients should participate in the study to ensure a power of 
1–=0.90 for the discrimination of p0 and p1. According to Fleming 
the null hypothesis should be rejected if at least

 
responses are observed (x* denotes the nearest integer to). With 
p0 and N defined as above and Z1– = (1 – )-quantile of the 
normal distribution = 1.645 at least 12 responders should be 
observed to show the efficacy as postulated. 
Using the same approach in the 15 additional patients, submitted 
to an adapted drug regimen, the power will be 80% to discriminate 
a p0=30% (expected CR rate) from a p1=65% (meaningful increase 
in CR rate), if 8 out of 14 completed patients are considered as 
responders, with a one-tailed alpha error of 5%. Alternatively, the 
power will be 90% to discriminate a p0=30% from a p1=70% again 
if 8 out of 14 completed patients are considered as responders, with 
a one-tailed alpha error of 5%.

Accompanying 
baseline translational 
study (optional) 
Leukemic blast cells will be isolated pre- and 24 hr post- a single 
Selinexor dose (60 mg) given at baseline (after registration and 
before first induction cycle). Blast cells will be used for leukemic 
stem cell gene expression profiling and in mouse model studies to 
define parameters associated with clinical responsiveness to 
Selinexor.    
Data 
Monitoring 
Committee 
An independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be 
implemented that reviews accumulating data of the clinical trial with 
respect to any potential safety issues, study progress and critical 
efficacy endpoints.  
The DMC will be an independent board consisting of 2-3 physicians 
with special expertise in AML. A physician is not allowed to 
participate in this clinical trial while serving on the DMC. The DMC 
will be supported by an independent statistician, if necessary. 
The DMC will review safety data, recovery times and efficacy of the 
clinical trial and support the interpretation of clinical trial results.

BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 
1.1 
Background 
1.1.1 Acute myeloid leukemia 
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignancy of hematopoietic progenitor cells (2).  Patients 
below an age of 60 years are treated with 1-2 cycles of standard chemotherapy usually with 
cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) and daunorubicin according to the 7 + 3 schedule. Between 70-80% 
of patients achieve a complete remission. Both American (3, 4) and European (5) cooperative group 
studies have found that the choice of anthracycline (daunorubicin or idarubicin, or the 
anthracenedione mitoxantrone) is of little consequence, assuming equitoxic doses are 
administered. Thereafter, patients receive consolidation therapy which is guided by the European 
LeukemiaNet (ELN) risk criteria (6, 7). Patients with good risk receive several cycles high dose Ara-
C(8, 9), patients with intermediary risk I and II and patients with unfavorable prognosis are 
transplanted in first CR if a suitable donor is available and no contraindications to stem cell 
transplant exist. In Germany, up to two thirds of patients receive an allotransplant in first 
remission. With this strategy 70-80% of patients are cured in the good risk category (10, 11), 50% in 
the intermediary risk and 20-40% in the high risk category (12).  
Recurrent/ Relapsed AML 
Patients with relapsed AML usually have a dismal prognosis(13). The best outcome is achieved in 
patients who receive an allotransplanting with about 20% - 40% of patients being long term 
survivors (14). The best results with allografting are achieved in patients who have achieved a 
second remission (15). The chance of a second CR depends of the duration of the first remission, 
the karyotype and the performance status of the patient.  
No standard regimen exists for the treatment of patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia 
(AML), particularly in patients with a first remission duration of less than 1 year (16). A number of 
agents have activity in recurrent/relapsed with an overall response rate of 20-80%, depending on 
study design and treatment (see Table 1, Appendix 1). Re-induction with Ara-C and daunorubicin 
will result in a 50% CR rate in patients who had a first remission lasting longer than 1 year (17-19). 
In a trial of mitoxantrone in combination with Ara-C in patients with refractory or relapsed AML 
with 49 patients 62.5% with first relapse AML achieved complete remission while none of the four 
patients with more than one prior remission responded (20). A triple combination of mitoxantrone, 
etoposide, and cytarabine (MEC) demonstrated a CR induction rate of 55% in a population 
including 30 patients with relapsed AML, 28 patients with primary refractory AML, and 16 patients 
with secondary AML(21). A phase 1-2 study of clofarabine plus Ara-C in 25 patients with relapsed 
acute myeloid leukemia 7 (22%) achieved complete remission (CR), and 5 (16%) achieved CR 
with incomplete platelet recovery (CRi), for an overall response rate of 38%(22). For patients not 
achieving a complete remission the only potentially curative treatment option is allogeneic 
transplantation with up to 20% of patients being long term survivors(14). 
Therefore, the combination of Ara-C and idarubicin was chosen for standard induction therapy 
and if the patient receives complete remission transplantation is recommended.  
In the light of a dismal prognosis for patients with relapsed/rectory AML a great clinical need exists 
for new treatment options.

1.1.2 Selinexor 
Over 10 major tumor suppressor pathways have evolved in order to prevent the development and 
progression of neoplasia. Because the vast majority of tumor suppressor (TSP) and growth 
regulatory (GRP) proteins require nuclear localization in order to carry out their antineoplastic 
activities, enhancing their nuclear export leads to their functional inactivation. The major 
TSP/GRP are exported exclusively by the protein CRM1 (also called XPO1), and tumors showing 
elevated CRM1 levels with cytoplasmic mislocalization of TSP/GRP. 
Additional detailed information is provided in the Investigator’s Brochure.  
Selinexor is an orally available, irreversible, potent and Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export 
(SINE) that specifically blocks XPO1. It is selectively cytotoxic for cells with genomic damage, i.e., 
for tumor cells, both in vitro and in vivo.  Normal cells, with minimal or no DNA damage, remain 
in transient, reversible cell cycle arrest until the export block is relieved. Selinexor and other SINE 
compounds are not intrinsically cytotoxic; rather, they can restore the highly effective tumor 
suppressing pathways that lead to selective elimination of genomically damaged (i.e., neoplastic) 
cells. Tumors of hematopoietic lineage are particularly susceptible to induction of apoptosis by 
XPO1 inhibition; normal hematopoietic cells and their functions are largely spared.

1.1.2.1 Preclinical Efficacy 
In vitro experiments with continuous (~72 hour) exposure to Selinexor demonstrated potent pro-
apoptotic activity across a broad panel of tumor-derived cell lines and patient samples in culture 
including multiply-resistant cancers, with the majority of IC50s for cytotoxicity <800 nM and most 
hematologic tumor lines having IC50s of 20-400 nM for Selinexor.  In contrast, normal cells 
typically underwent (or remained in) cell cycle arrest but were resistant to apoptosis-induction; 
cytotoxicity IC50s were typically >5 µM.  Efficacy was demonstrated in mouse models of myeloma, 
mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (T-ALL) xenografts. 
Moreover, efficacy including significant survival advantages was demonstrated in acute myeloid 
leukemia (AML) [MV4-11 (FLT3-ITD)] (23, 24) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (TCL-1) 
leukemografts. Efficacy was also demonstrated in solid tumor xenografts including prostate, 
breast, liver, glioblastoma, kidney and colon cancers. KPT-276 and KPT-335, SINEs closely 
related to Selinexor, have been given orally to several dogs with various cancers in ongoing pilot 
studies, and clear evidence of antitumor activity with acceptable tolerability has been obtained in 
dogs with both de novo newly diagnosed and chemotherapy (e.g. CHOP- (cyclophosphamide, 
hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin and prednisone-resistant diffuse large B cell non-Hodgkin’s 
lymphoma (DLBCL) in dogs. In a Phase 2b study of newly diagnosed or first relapsed NHL (mainly 
DLBCL) in dogs, KPT-335 induced a 34% objective response rate (≥50% tumor shrinkage) as a 
single agent. Reduced food intake, which can be accompanied by weight loss, was observed; 
food supplementation can largely overcome this and dosing has been maintained for over 6 
months in dogs with cancer.  
1.1.2.1.1 Preclinical Efficacy:  AML 
AML cells overexpress the nuclear exporter, Exportin 1 (XPO1/CRM1) and higher XPO1 levels 
correlate with poor outcome (28). The novel selective inhibitor of nuclear transport (SINE), 
Selinexor, antagonizes XPO1 and shows potent cytotoxicity for AML and ALL cells in vitro, 
independent of genotype.  
 
Selinexor show potent antiproliferative effect and induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and 
myeloid differentiation in AML cell lines and patient blasts, including those from patients with 
NPM1 and FLT3-ITD mutations (23).  
Mechanistic studies show that SINE induces nuclear localization and activation of multiple tumor 
suppressor proteins (TSPs), leading to rapid apoptosis of AML cells.  In addition, a strong down-
regulation of the oncogenes FLT3 and c-KIT were observed after SINE treatment in both FLT3- 
ITD and wild-type cell lines (23). Selinexor treatment also restored the localization of cytoplasmic 
mutant NPM1 into the nucleus.  
 
In murine AML and ALL models, Selinexor showed potent antileukemic activity without toxicity 
to normal hematopoietic cells (23,24,29).

1.1.2.2 Preclinical Safety 
In the Selenixor nonclinical safety program in Spegue-Dawley rats and cynomolgus monkeys, the 
primary effects of oral Selinexor were dose-dependent reductions in food intake and body weight 
(or reductions in body weight gain), with minimal clinical symptoms (no or mild non-bloody 
diarrhea), associated primarily with gastrointestinal atrophy.  Similar effects are observed in mice 
and dogs.  At high repeated doses of Selinexor associated with marked weight loss, there were 
changes in cerebellar granular layer neurons in both rats (≥300 mg/m²) and monkeys (≥72 mg/m²), 
but only monkeys showed any CNS symptoms.  No central nervous system (CNS)-related 
adverse side effects were observed in the GLP, rat and monkey 4-cycle toxicity studies.  
A GLP, rat neurofunctional study (Irwin test) has also been performed at dose levels of 12, 60, or 
300 mg/m² (2, 10, and 50 mg/kg).  No behavioral changes were observed at all doses tested.   
In the pivotal, GLP, 4-week monkey study, there was no evidence of a direct or indirect effect of 
Selinexor on the morphology and intervals of the ECG at up to 36 mg/m² (3 mg/kg).  Based on 
these results, QT prolongation or other cardiac effect does not appear to be a safety concern for 
Selinexor.  
In summary, dose limiting toxicity (DLT)/mortality in both rats and monkeys is related primarily to 
marked weight loss with atrophy of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and noncritical effects on other 
major organs.  
Further detailed information is provided in the Investigator’s Brochure. 
1.1.2.3 Clinical Efficacy 
Karyopharm Therapeutics is currently conducting three open label Phase 1 clinical trials to assess 
the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Selinexor given orally 2-3 times per week. The first study 
(KCP-330-001) is a dose escalation study in patients with advanced hematological malignancies, 
the second (KCP-330-002) is a dose escalating study in patients with advanced or metastatic 
solid tumor malignancies and the third (KCP-330-003), a food effect study, is in patients who have 
metastatic, locally advanced or locally recurrent soft tissue or bone sarcomas. All patients entering 
these single-agent phase 1 studies have relapsed after available therapies and have objectively 
progressing tumors at time of study drug initiation. To date Selinexor has been administered to 
over 130 patients. The food effect study was initiated in July 2013, so preliminary safety or efficacy 
data are not yet available. 
In the Phase 1 study (KCP-330-001) a total of 39 patients with relapsed AML have been enrolled. 
As of December 4, of 33 pts who were evaluable for response, complete response (CR) with full 
hematological recovery was achieved in 4 patients (11%), and CR without hematological recovery 
(CRi) in 1 patient (3%). Partial Response (PR) was achieved in 2 patients (6%). Morphological 
leukemia free state was achieved in 1 patient (3%). Ten (29%) of the remaining patients have had 
stable disease for > 30 days, and 13 (34%) have had progressive disease.

1.1.2.4 Clinical Safety 
Gastrointestinal adverse events and fatigue are the most common types of AEs seen in Arm 2 
(AML) patients.  As of 8 November 2013, Karyopharm has reports of AEs in 36 of the 38 patients 
enrolled in this arm and the AE prevalence percentages below are based upon 38 patients.  As 
of 8 November 2013, the gastrointestinal adverse events typically consist of nausea in 22 patients 
(58%), anorexia in 17 patients (45%), vomiting in 13 patients (34%) and weight loss in 10 patients 
(26%).  The gastrointestinal events are primarily Grade 1 or Grade 2 events that are generally 
responsive to standard supportive care.  Fatigue was observed in 18 patients in this arm (47%) 
as of 8 November 2013, including Grade 3 fatigue in three patients (8%) and Grade 1 or Grade 2 
fatigue in 15 patients (39%).  Karyopharm has also observed Grade 4 thrombocytopenia in three 
patients (8%) in this arm as of 8 November 2013.  Karyopharm expects that the thrombocytopenia 
is primarily a result of patients entering this arm with marked bone marrow suppression due to 
both disease and prior therapies.  
It is anticipated that fewer and more mild gastrointestinal events and reduced fatigue will be 
observed in the future as a result of the initiation of supportive care and medications prior to 
beginning Selinexor therapy.   
To date, over 1,800 patients have received Selinexor in clinical studies. Of these, 1,175 patients 
were evaluable for safety as of 31 May 2016. 
Since the beginning of this study new safety data were revealed from other ongoing clinical trials 
with Selinexor. Four cases of Nervous System Disorders are described below. The necessity to 
report all cases of cerebellar toxicity ≥ 3 as SAE is included in the Safety Reporting Procedures 
in chapter 7. 
  
One patient, heavily pre-treated for recurrent pancreatic cancer, developed acute cerebellar 
syndrome (ACS) following 3 doses of selinexor at 85 mg/m2 twice weekly. The patient 
experienced abnormal speech, loss of coordination, and was unable to walk. Selinexor was 
permanently discontinued, and the patient recovered to near baseline over ~6 weeks.  
 
A five-year-old male patient with refractory AML and prior stem cell transplant (SCT) had severe 
body pain, followed the next day by irritability, aphasia, and lower extremity weakness after 
receiving 4 doses of selinexorr (70 mg/m2) and 5 days fludarabine and cytarabine. The event was 
considered to be ACS. Selinexor was permanently discontinued and the patient recovered 
completely after 6 weeks.  
 
A 19-month-old patient with relapsed AML and without prior SCT was unable to hold his trunk or 
head straight and demonstrated erratic use of his hands on study day 13, after receiving 4 doses

of Selinexor (70 mg/m2) and prior to receiving fludarabine or cytarabine. The event was 
considered to be ACS. Selinexor dosing was permanently discontinued and his ataxia improved 
over the course of two weeks. 
 
An 18-year old female patient with heavily pre-treated, refractory AML developed cognitive 
disturbance Grade 3 after receiving 4 doses of Selinexor 56 mg/m² twice weekly. Symptoms 
included flat affect and brief episodes of non-responsiveness, but not focal or gait disturbances. 
Selinexor was held and the symptoms resolved within one week,however, after  restarting 
treatment and receiving two additional doses , the symptoms returned and selinexor was 
permanently discontinued. The symptoms returned to near baseline. The event differs from ACS 
seen in the other patients, as the patient had pre-existing MRI abnormalities, including cerebellar 
disease, but did not develop focal abnormalities or gait disturbances. 
 
ACS is defined as Adverse Event of Special Interest (AESI), see section 7.1.5. A further AESI is 
the development of (or worsening of existing) cataracts during treatment with Selinexor. In 30 
patients (3%), a cataract (or worsening of existing cataract) occurred, but in all cases, prior or 
ongoing use of other drugs associated with cataracts, diabetes or age-related progression have 
been implicated in cataract worsening. Most of the cases were worsening of existing cataracts.  
 
  
1.2 
Study Rationale 
Selective inhibition of nuclear export (SINE) is a novel therapeutic strategy that could potentially 
be applicable to many cancers. Tumors of hematopoietic lineage are particularly susceptible to 
induction of apoptosis by XPO1 inhibition; normal hematopoietic cells and their functions are 
largely spared.  In vivo efficacy was observed with Selinexor treatment groups in mouse models 
of different types of cancer. Moreover, efficacy including significant survival advantages was 
demonstrated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) [MV4-11 (FLT3-ITD)] (23, 24), and chronic 
lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (TCL-1) leukemografts. These studies demonstrate potent in vitro 
and in vivo efficacy of Selinexor against a variety of cancer tumor models as a standalone agent 
or in combination with a variety of anti-cancer modalities.  
In a recent study the safety and efficacy of Selinexor and Ara-C as single agent or in combination 
was tested in vivo. Treatment with AraC or Selinexor alone significantly prolonged the survival of 
leukemic mice from a median survival of 24 days (APL + vehicle) to 33 days or 39 days, 
respectively (P < 0.0001). Encouragingly, combination therapy with AraC + KPT-330 further 
prolonged survival compared to monotherapy (P < 0.0001), with some mice being cured of the 
disease. 
In the Phase 1 study (KTP-330-001) 5 out of the 33 AML patients (15%) have experienced a 
complete remission (CR)/ complete remission without platelet recovery (CRi).    
Because of the encouraging efficacy, unique mechanism of action and clinical safety, it is 
considered to be a suitable agent to study in the combination with Ara-C and Idarubicin.

STUDY DESIGN 
3.1 
 Overview of Study Design and Dosing Regimen 
This is a multi center, open-label, non-randomized phase II trial study. 
Patients are informed, screened and enrolled in the study at the time of progression of disease 
on prior chemotherapy documented by Bone Marrow Aspirate. Treatment should start within two 
weeks after enrolment.  
The study design is displayed in Figure 1. 
3.1.1 Baseline Translational Research Study (optional) 
All enrolled patients may participate in an optional baseline translational research study. Patients 
will receive single dose of Selinexor (60 mg) after registration and before first induction cycle. 
Bone marrow aspirate samples will be collected pre-dose and 24 hour post-dose. Blast cells will 
be used for leukemic stem cell gene expression profiling and in mouse model studies to define 
parameters associated with clinical responsiveness to Selinexor. See 5.1.2.1 for more details. 
3.1.2 Definition of Treatment Cycle 
All enrolled patients will be treated with cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) at a dose of 100 mg/m² 
continuous infusion (day 1-7) and idarubicin at a dose of 10 mg/m² i.v. (days 1,3,5) every 4 weeks 
and Selinexor for a maximum of 2 cycles. During the second cycle the idarubicin dose is restricted 
to 2 administrations on day 1 and 3.  
Patients will receive oral Selinexor 60 mg twice weekly in weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle (Monday/ 
Wednesday or Tuesday/ Thursday or Wednesday/Friday) starting on day 2 of week 1 (total of 
6doses per induction cycle).  
If a CR or CRi was achieved, patients will be recommended for stem cell transplantation. If a PR 
is achieved patients can undergo a second, identical treatment cycle. 
In patients who are not eligible or do not undergo additional stem cell transplantation, but, in the 
opinion of the investigator, are benefiting from Selinexor, then oral Selinexor dosed twice weekly 
in weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle may be continued parallel to 3 cycles of consolidation therapy with 
Ara-C until relapse or toxicity develops.  The dose of Ara-C is 3 g/m² IV for 2h every 12 hours at 
3 consecutive days for patients with good performance status and younger than 60 years (in total 
6 doses). If patients are older than 60 years the dose is 1 g/m² IV for 2h every 12 hours at 3 
consecutive days. During consolidation Selinexor dosing (60 mg) will start on day 2 of week 1 of 
a 4-week cycle and will be continued twice weekly during weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle  (total of 6  
doses per cycle). Selinexor twice weekly (Monday/ Wednesday or Tuesday/ Thursday or 
Wednesday/Friday) in weeks 1-3   at a dose of 60 mg (total of 6 doses per 4-week cycle) may 
continue until relapse or for maximally 1 year of treatment. 
Patients achieving a > 50% blast reduction after the end of 2 induction cycles and in the opinion 
of the investigator, are benefiting from Selinexor and are not candidates for Stem cell 
transplantation, oral Selinexor dosed twice weekly in weeks 1-3 may be continued. Drug 
administration will occur twice weekly, on days 1 and 3 of weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle at a dose 
of 60 mg (e.g. on Monday and Wednesday or on Tuesday and Thursday or on Wednesday and 
Friday). One cycle is 4 weeks with 6 doses of Selinexor.

Safety assessments are performed at baseline visit, twice weekly during induction treatment, at 
the End of Cycle and at the End of Treatment visit. Clinical and Bone Marrow Aspirate for disease 
status are performed at baseline, at the end of the cycle during induction and consolidation. During 
maintenance and follow-up after SCT bone marrow aspirate is required in case of suspicious 
blood counts. If a patient discontinues treatment due to any other reason than disease 
progression/ death/ withdrawal of informed consent, the disease evaluations shall continue until 
disease progression. This includes patients who wish to discontinue treatment, but agree that 
further data is captured for the purpose of the study (partial withdrawal).

3.1.3 Treatment Duration 
Treatment duration for patients achieving CR or CRi during induction will be 1 or 2 cycles of 4 
weeks each. These patients will be recommended for stem cell transplantation and have their end 
of treatment prior to SCT and will be followed for event-free and overall survival. 
For patients achieving CR or CRi but who are not eligible or do not undergo additional stem cell 
transplantation, will continue in consolidation/maintenance therapy with 3 cycle of AraC combined 
with 4-week cycles with twice-weekly Selinexor during weeks 1 and 3 until relapse (for maximally 
1 year of treatment).  
Patients with a > 50% blast reduction at the end of 2 induction cycles and in the opinion of the 
investigator, are benefiting from Selinexor, will in maintenance therapy with 4-week cycles with 
twice-weekly Selinexor in weeks 1-3 until progression of disease (for maximally 1 year of 
treatment).  
For patients for whom none of the above mentioned is achieved after 2 4-week induction cycles 
will discontinue study and will be followed for overall survival. 
In any case, treatment will be discontinued upon progression of disease (PD) or unacceptable 
toxicity, withdrawal of consent by the patients, or non-compliance by the patient with protocol 
requirements.  
3.1.4 End of treatment Visit 
Patients that discontinue from treatment will undergo an end of treatment visit, regardless of the 
reason of discontinuation, approximately 30 days (±7 days) after the last dose of study medication. 
In case of allogeneic SCT the end of treatment visit should be performed prior to SCT.   
3.1.5 Follow-up Phase 
Patients who discontinued for reasons other withdrawal of consent for participation in the trial will 
be followed every 3 months ± 28 days for event free- and/or overall survival. 
A patient may decide to discontinue study treatment. This is not the same as fully withdrawal of 
consent to participate in the trial and these patients should be encouraged to continue to be 
followed for event-free and overall survival. If a patient chooses to have no further interaction 
regarding the study (fully withdrawal of consent), the investigator must provide written 
documentation of the patient’s decision to fully withdraw from the study. 
 
3.2 
Study timelines 
The planned number of 40 patients was reached. The end of the enrolment period was June 
2016. End of study will be defined 2 years after registration of the last patient.

SCHEDULE OF ASSESSMENT AND PROCEDURES 
5.1 
Study Assessments 
5.1.1 Response Assessments 
Disease status will be assessed by bone marrow and peripheral blood analysis at the end of each 
4-weeks induction and consolidation cycle. Disease status during maintenance will be evaluated 
by peripheral blood analysis at the end of each cycle and during follow-up after SCT every 3 
months ± 28 days. Bone marrow aspirate during maintenance and FU is required in case 
peripheral blood analysis is suspicious for progression of disease/relapse. Response is evaluated 
according to Döhner et al. criteria1. 
5.1.2 Translational, Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Analyses (Optional) 
5.1.2.1 Baseline Translational Studies  
5.1.2.1.1 Leukemic Blast Cell Expansion in Mice 
The leukemic blasts isolated from bone marrow aspirates of patients will be expanded in 2-3 NSG 
mice and then retransplanted into 20 NSG mice for therapeutic experiments. The resulting mouse 
models of patient leukemias will be used to determine the activity of Selinexor against both the 
bulk leukemia population and leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) of patient AML cells. Mice 
transplanted with patient AML cells will be treated with either vehicle control or Selinexor to assess 
the drug response of the bulk AML population and will then re-transplant at limiting cell dilutions 
the bone marrow AML cells of the vehicle and Selinexor treated mice into new recipient mice in 
order to calculate the fold reduction of LICs in response to therapy. The therapeutic response of 
mouse primagrafts of patient leukemias will be correlated with clinical outcomes of patients 
enrolled in the trial.  
5.1.2.1.2 Leukemic Stem Cell Gene Expression 
Recent studies by Eppert et al., 2011 and Metzeler et al., 2013 identified AML stem cell prognostic 
(42 gene) signature by correlating enrichment for the leukemia stem cell (LCS) expression 
signature with the clinical outcome.25, 26 To analyze the extent of “stemness” of patient AML blasts 
in response to treatment with Selinexor, we will perform gene expression profiling of leukemic 
blasts isolated from patients before the start of therapy and 24 hour after the first drug dose. The 
LSC scores will be calculated based on the extent of the enrichment in the 42 LSC-specific gene 
signature for patient leukemias and will be used to predict clinical outcome. These experiments 
will be critical for defining the anti-leukemic activity of Selinexor against LICs of specific patient 
AML cells and predicting patients’ long-term response to the Selinexor therapy. 
 
5.1.2.2 Pharmacodynamic Studies 
5.1.2.2.1 XPO1 Inhibition 
Leukocytes will be isolated from patient blood samples collected pre- and post-dosing (≥ 4hr) and 
total RNA will be isolated to study changes in gene expression before and after exposure to 
Selinexor. Inhibition of XPO1 (Selinexor target) will be assessed by qRT-PCR of XPO1 and other 
genes, which are upregulated once XPO1 is inactivated (based on Karyopharm gene chip 
studies)(e.g., ARRDC3, NGFR, SLC family, PCLO).

Page 33/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
5.1.2.2.2 Cytokines 
Blood samples will be collected pre- and post-dosing and analyzed for plasma cytokine 
concentrations. Cytokines include: interleukin 1 alpha (IL1α), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), 
interleukin 6(IL-6), MCP1, interferon gamma (IFNγ), vascular endothelial growth factor alpha 
(VEGFα), interleukin 8 (IL-8), interferon alpha (IFNα), interleukin 10 (IL-10). 
5.1.2.3 Pharmacokinetics of Selinexor 
Blood samples will be obtained pre- and post-first Selinexor dose of induction cycle 1 to determine 
Selinexor plasma concentrations. 
 
5.1.3 Safety Assessments 
Throughout the treatment period until one month after the last dose of study medication, patients 
will be assessed for all adverse events. Common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE 
v4.03, see Appendix 7) will be used for grading. If necessary, the patient may be withdrawn from 
the study treatment.  
Medical history including leukaemia and treatment history will be reviewed and recorded at the 
screening visit.  
Concomitant medications will be documented throughout treatment phase until the EOT visit.  
Adverse events (see also Section 7.1): All patients will be closely monitored for adverse events 
from start of treatment, i.e. cycle 1 day 1, until 30 days after the last dose of study medication. 
Adverse events for which the relationship to test drug is not “unrelated” should be followed up 
until they have returned to baseline status or stabilised.  Adverse events will be recorded at each 
visit.   
5.1.4 Laboratory Assessments 
Safety blood samples include complete blood count, time of recovery of platelets ≥ 50x 109/L and 
≥ 100x 109/L, ANC recovery ≥ 0.5x 109/L and ≥ 1.0x 109/L, clinical chemistry, including liver 
function test and coagulation.

5.2.1 Prophylactic Therapy for All Patients 
Patients may receive prophylactic treatment to prevent anorexia and nausea, which includes: 
 
Megesterol acetate 160-400 mg daily, 0-3 days before the first dosing day of Selinexor  
 
AND 
 
Olanzapine 5.0 mg qhs or 2.5 mg bid, 0-3 days before the first dosing day of Selinexor  
OR 
 
Mirtazapine 15 mg qd (qpm/qhs), 0-3 days before the first dosing day of Selinexor  
If the patient is on steroids coming on the study, megesterol acetate should be added 
prophylactically to prevent anorexia. If an increased risk of adverse effects due to olanzapine is 
anticipated, olanzapine can be omitted. However, it is recommended that mirtazapine or other 
appetite stimulating serotonergic agent be used.  Additional standard supportive care agents may 
be used as needed (prn). 
Supportive care may be tapered or discontinued in Cycle 2 or later in patients who tolerate 
Selinexor well in Cycle 1.

Planned Treatment of the Patient after End of Treatment Phase 
After completion of the study at routine follow-up (EOT), patients will generally be treated at the 
discretion of the investigator according to medical routine, although stem cell transplantation is 
recommended if a donor is available and no contra-indications exist.  
 
 
5.4 
Removal of Patients from Treatment 
Subjects will be free to discontinue treatment or withdraw from the study at any time, for any 
reason.  Or they may be withdrawn/ removed if necessary in order to protect their health (see 
reasons for withdrawal below).  It is understood by all concerned that an excessive rate of 
withdrawals can render the study uninterpretable; therefore, unnecessary withdrawal of subjects 
should be avoided. Patients who are withdrawn from the study will not be replaced. 
Patients will be removed from further treatment for the following reasons: 
 
Disease progression 
 
Non-compliance 
 
Need of treatment with medications not allowed by the study protocol 
 
Patient no longer consents to participate in the study 
 
Intercurrent illness that interferes with study assessments 
 
Incidence or severity of AEs in this study indicates a potential health hazard to the patient 
 
Investigator discretion 
 
Pregnancy 
 
Termination of the study by the sponsor 
 
If there is a medical reason for withdrawal of treatment, the patient will remain under the 
supervision of the investigator until the AEs have been resolved or declined to baseline values. 
If a patient has failed to attend scheduled assessments in the study, the investigator must 
determine the reasons and circumstances as completely and accurately as possible.  
In case of premature discontinuation of the study treatment, the investigations scheduled for the 
EOT and the follow-up visits should be performed, if possible. The CRF section entitled “End of 
Treatment” must be completed in all cases. Should a patient decide to withdraw, every effort will 
be made to complete and report the observations as thoroughly as possible. The investigator 
should contact the patient to determine as completely as possible the reason for the withdrawal. 
A complete final evaluation at the time of the patient’s withdrawal should be made, with an 
explanation of why the patient is withdrawing from the study. If the reason for removal of a patient 
from the study is an adverse event or an abnormal laboratory test result, the principal specific 
event or test will be recorded on the case report form. 
If a patient withdraws consent for further study treatment, the patient should still be followed for 
disease progression and overall survival. If a patient withdraws consent for further participation in 
the study, follow-up assessments will be discontinued.

TREATMENT 
6.1 
Investigational medicinal product (IMP) 
An investigational medicinal product is a pharmaceutical form of an active substance or placebo 
being tested or used as a reference in a clinical trial, including products already with a marketing 
authorisation but used or assembled (formulated or packaged) in a way different from the 
authorised form, or when used for an unauthorised indication, or when used to gain further 
information about the authorised form. 
The IMP in this study is Selinexor. AraC and Idarubicin are not considered IMP as the treatment 
is according standard of care. Any AraC or Idarubicin with marketing authorisation in the member 
state can be administered according to protocol.  
The investigator or other appropriate individual, who is designated by the local principal 
investigator, should maintain records of the inventory at the site, the use for each patient and 
delivery, storage and destruction. Investigators should maintain records that adequately 
document that patients were provided the doses specified in the protocol and reconcile all 
investigational product(s) received from the sponsor. 
 
6.2 
Preparation and Administration of Selinexor 
The investigator or responsible site personnel must instruct the patient or caregiver to take the 
study drug as per protocol. Study drug will be dispensed to the patient by authorized site 
personnel only. All dosages prescribed to the patient and all dose changes during the study must 
be recorded on the Dosage Administration Record CRF. 
Tablets, including instructions for administration, are dispensed by study personnel on an 
outpatient or inpatient basis. 
Patients will be provided with an adequate supply of study drug for self-administration at home 
until at least their next scheduled study visit.

6.2.1.1 Tablets 
Selinexor (KPT-330) for oral administration will be supplied as 10 mg tablets. Bottles of 50 tablets 
per bottle will be supplied. 
6.2.1.2 Labelling 
Each bottle of Selinexor tablets will be labelled in accordance with current ICH GCP and specific 
national requirements. 
6.2.1.3 Storage 
Selinexor tablets will be stored at ambient temperatures between 5 –30 °C in a locked and 
secured area with restricted access to study staff. The tablets should not be stored at freezer 
temperatures or allowed to freeze. Tablets will be supplied in white high density polyethylene 
(HDPE) bottles.  
6.2.2 Route of Administration 
Selinexor tablets will be taken orally twice weekly during weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle, either on 
Monday and Wednesday or on Tuesday and Thursday or on Wednesday and Friday. 
Selinexor is to be taken within approximately 30-minutes of solid food consumption together with 
240 mL (8 ounces) of water. 
Each dose will consist of Selinexor for oral administration with a dose of 60 mg.  
6.2.3 Compliance 
The investigator should ensure that the investigational product is used only in accordance with 
the protocol. All doses given are to be documented in the CRF, including exact dose, number of 
tablets, time and date administered. The principal investigator or the designee will account for the 
number of tablets dispensed against those stored at the site. Any deviations and missed doses 
will be recorded in the CRF and drug accountability logs for verification with the reasons for 
missed doses. The investigator/ designee will try to ensure complete compliance with the dosing 
schedule by providing timely instructions to the patients. It will be requested from patients to 
document intake of Selinexor in a patient diary. 
The investigational product should be stored as specified by the sponsor and in accordance with 
applicable regulatory requirements. 
 
6.3 
Dose modification of Selinexor 
Toxicity will be graded according to NCI CTCAE, version 4.03; the therapy modifications 
described below are applied according to this severity grading. 
Each dose modification or treatment delay has to be documented in the CRF, including the 
respective reason. 

SAIL 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Page 45/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
Based on observations from the ongoing Phase 1 studies in patients with advanced hematological 
and solid tumors, Selinexor (KPT-330) shows a wide therapeutic range, with documented anti-
leukemic activity from ~17mg/m² to ≥55mg/m² orally twice weekly. At the present time, we cannot 
predict which patient's leukemia will respond to lower doses, nor can tolerability be predicted. 
Therefore, in order to individualize and optimize therapeutic benefit with this oral SINE XPO1 
antagonist, initiation of study therapy will be with a relatively high dose (60 mg twice weekly in 
weeks 1-3 of a 4-week cycle by mouth) of Selinexor. Although this is a high dose, it is below the 
MTD of oral Selinexor, and we believe will maximize early disease control with good tolerability in 
the majority of patients.  Flexible dose reductions and/or schedule modifications will be permitted. 
In patients with tolerability issues on Selinexor, it is recommended either: (1) reducing Selinexor 
dose by 30% or (2) reducing Selinexor dosing frequency to once weekly.  
6.3.1 Dose Adjustment Guidelines for Selinexor Related Toxicities 
Toxicity will be graded according to NCI CTCAE, version 4.03; the therapy modifications 
described below are applied according to this severity grading. 
If more than one different type of toxicity occurs concurrently, the most severe grade will 
determine the modification. 
Re-escalation of the study drug is allowed as outlined in the sections that apply for the specific 
toxicity. If drug-related toxicity requires a treatment delay of more than 28 days the patient is taken 
off protocol treatment. 
Each dose modification or treatment delay has to be documented, including the respective 
reason.

Discontinue dosing 
 
Based on observations from the ongoing Phase 1 studies in patients with advanced hematological 
and solid tumors, we note that selinexor shows a reasonably wide therapeutic range, with 
activities from ~10mg/m2 to ≥50mg/m2.  Therefore, in order to optimize specific anti-tumor activity 
and the patient’s tolerability, we will allow for dose and/or schedule modifications as described 
below. Patients should also be treated aggressively with supportive care to reduce toxicities.

Table 3: Criteria for dose adjustments of Selinexor-related toxicities  
Toxicity and Intensity 
Dose Modification 
Fatigue (common) 
Grade 1 
Insure adequate caloric intake and assess volume status. Adjust 
other medications. Consider addition of low dose corticosteroids 
(e.g., 4 mg dexamethasone with each dose of Selinexor or 10 
mg prednisone per day every day).  Rule out other causes of 
fatigue such as adrenal insufficiency.  
Grade 2 
Insure adequate caloric and fluid intake and assess volume 
status.  Add corticosteroids on day of Selinexor (e.g., 4 mg 
dexamethasone), or give or 10-15mg prednisone every other 
day.  If fatigue dose not resolve to Grade 1, increase 
corticosteroids to the day of and the day after Selinexor dosing, 
and/or reduce dose of Selinexor by one level (Table 2). 
Grade 2 lasting ≥7 days 
and Grade 3 
Insure adequate caloric and fluid intake and assess volume 
status.  Interrupt Selinexor dosing until resolved to Grade ≤ 1, 
reduce dose of Selinexor by 1 level (Table 2), and add 
corticosteroids on day of (± day after) Selinexor dosing. 
Anorexia or weight loss 
(common) 
 
Grade 1 
Assess dietary options (e.g., try a variety of other foods). Add 
high-calorie supplements (e.g., Ensure®). If fatigue or nausea 
also present, consider low doses of corticosteroids (as for 
fatigue) on day of ± day after Selinexor dosing. 
Grade 2 
Add high-calorie supplements (e.g., Ensure®). Consider 
olanzapine 2.5-5 mg po qhs (especially if nausea or sleep 
disturbance present).  Consider megesterol acetate 400-800 mg 
daily.  Consider low dose corticosteroids (see fatigue).  Consider 
anabolic steroids such as oxandrolone. Consider dronabinol 
(Marinol®).  Skip intermittent doses of Selinexor while supportive 
medications are instituted. If Grade 2 anorexia does not resolve 
after institution of supportive medications, reduce Selinexor dose 
by 1 level (Table 2). 
Grade 3 
Interrupt dosing with Selinexor.  Add high calorie supplements.  
Use supportive medications alone or in combinations.  Restart 
Selinexor at 1 dose level reduction (Table 2) once anorexia 
resolves to Grade ≤ 2 and weight stabilized.  If Grade 2 anorexia 
persists with supportive medications, reduce dose of Selinexor 
another level (Table 2). 
Nausea/Emesis (common) 
 
Grade 1 
5-HT3 antagonists, D2 antagonists, olanzapine 5mg qhs or 
2.5mg bid, corticosteroids (e.g., 4-10 mg dexamethasone with 
each dose of Selinexor ± the day after dosing), NK1 antagonists, 
or dronabinol (Marinol) or combinations can prevent nausea in 
the majority of patients. 
Grade 2 
Implement one or more combinations of anti-nausea 
medications.  If nausea does not resolve to Grade ≤ 1, reduce 
dose of Selinexor by one dose level (Table 2).

Dose Modification 
Grade 3 
Implement one or more combinations of anti-nausea 
medications and interrupt dosing of Selinexor.  Selinexor may be 
restarted with one dose level reduction (Table 2) when nausea is 
Grade ≤ 2 and adequate caloric and fluid intake have been 
achieved. 
Hyponatremia (common) 
Grade 1 (Lower Limit of 
Normal to 130 nM) 
 
Maintain dose level, assure adequate fluid, electrolyte and 
caloric intake, adjust other medications, consider salt 
supplementation, rule out other causes. 
Be certain that reported sodium level is corrected for concurrent 
hyperglycemia (serum glucose > 150mg/dL). 
Grade 3 (120-130 nM) 
without symptoms 
First Occurrence: Discontinue Selinexor until resolved to Grade 
≤ 1 then reinstate starting dose.  Check renal function, serum 
and urinary electrolytes, and rule out other causes. Reinforce 
patient education regarding fluid intake. 
Be certain that reported sodium level is corrected for concurrent 
hyperglycemia (serum glucose > 150mg/dL). 
 
Subsequent Occurences: Discontinue Selinexor until resolved to 
Grade ≤ 1 then reduce dose by 1 level (Table 2).  Check renal 
function, serum and urinary electrolytes, and rule out other 
causes. 
Grade 3 (120-130 nM with 
symptoms) or Grade 4 
(<120 nM) 
Check renal function, serum and urinary electrolytes, and rule 
out other causes. Be certain that reported sodium level is 
corrected for concurrent hyperglycemia (serum glucose > 
150mg/dL). 
 
Discontinue Selinexor until resolved to Grade ≤ 1 then reduce 
dose by 1 level (Table 2).  Check renal function, serum and

Note: If Grade 3 or Grade 4 hyperbilirubinemia is due to the 
indirect component only, and hemolysis as the etiology has been 
ruled out as per institutional guidelines (e.g. review of peripheral 
blood smear and haptoglobin determination), then reduce 
Selinexor dose by 1 level (Table 2) and continue treatment at 
the discretion of the investigator. 
Discontinuation of Selinexor is required if concurrent elevations 
of total bilirubin > 2.0 X upper limit of normal (ULN) and ALT or 
AST > 3.0 X ULN are observed and other causes have been 
ruled out. 
In order to characterize hepatic toxicity more precisely, 
fractionation of bilirubin and alkaline phosphatases will be 
required for elevated values > 2.0 X ULN and ≥ CTCAE Grade 
2, respectively. 
AST or ALT (rare) 
Grade 1 (> ULN-2.5 x ULN) 
Maintain dose level 
Grade 2 (> 2.5-5.0 x ULN) 
Delay Selinexor until resolved to Grade ≤ 1, then maintain dose 
level.  Consider addition of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) 400mg 
qd-bid. 
Grade 3 (> 5.0-20.0 x ULN) 
Delay Selinexor until resolved to ≤ Grade 2, then reduce by 1 
dose level (Table 2). 
Consider addition of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) 400mg qd-
qid. 
If no further AST or ALT elevations occur during one cycle 
(4 weeks) at the reduced dose level, then dose may be 
continued at the reduced dose. 
Discontinuation of Selinexor is required if concurrent elevations 
of direct bilirubin > 2.0 X upper limit of normal (ULN) and ALT or 
AST > 3.0 X ULN are observed. 
In order to characterize hepatic toxicity more precisely, 
fractionation of bilirubin and alkaline phosphatases will be

according to institutional standard of care. Maintain dose level of 
Selinexor. 
Grade 2 (despite maximal 
anti-diarrheal medication) 
 
Reduce to Selinexor to one weekly until resolved to ≤ Grade 1, 
then re-start twice weekly at the current dose level.  
If diarrhea returns as ≥ Grade 2, then reduce Selinexor dose by 
one dose level and dose once weekly until resolved to ≤ Grade 
1, then re-start twice weekly at reduced dose level 
Grade 3/4  (despite 
maximal anti-diarrheal 
medication) 
Delay Selinexor until resolved to ≤ Grade 1 or baseline and 
patient is clinically stable, then follow guidelines above.

Asymptomatic Grade 3 or 4 
Delay Selinexor until ≤ Grade 2, then restart at 1 dose level 
reduction (Table 2).  Rule out other causes of amylase/lipase 
elevation.  If levels have not returned to ≤ Grade 2 within 3 
weeks then no further Selinexor may be given and the patient 
should discontinue permanently from the study. A computed 
tomography (CT) scan or other imaging study to assess the 
pancreas, liver and gallbladder must be performed within 1 week 
of the first occurrence of any Grade 3 elevation of amylase 
and/or lipase.

Rule out other causes including drug effects. 
Interrupt Selinexor until recovers to Grade 2 or baseline and 
reduce selinexor by 1 dose level. If the occurrence falls on a Day 
1 of a cycle: delay start of cycle, check platelet counts weekly 
until recovers to Grade 2 or baseline and reduce selinexor by 1 
dose level when resuming. 
≥ Grade 3 with bleeding 
Interrupt selinexor dosing and check platelet counts weekly until 
the bleeding has stopped, patient is clinically stable and the 
platelets have recovered to Grade 2 or baseline. When resuming 
selinexor, reduce by 1 dose level. If the occurrence falls on a 
Day 1 of a cycle: delay start of cycle, check platelet counts 
weekly until the bleeding has stopped, patient is clinically stable 
and the platelets have recovered to Grade 2 or baseline. 
Reduce selinexor by 1 dose level when resuming. 
Neutropenia 
Grade 3 or 4 Neutropenia 
With (febrile neutropenia) 
OR Without fever 
Institute prophylactic antibiotics as clinically indicated per 
institutional guidelines. 
Interrupt selinexor and check neutrophils weekly until recovers

If the occurrence falls on a Day 1 of a cycle: delay start of cycle, 
check neutrophils weekly until recovers to Grade 2 or baseline 
and without fever (if febrile) and the patient is clinically stable. 
Reduce selinexor by 1 dose level when resuming. 
Anemia 
Treat per institutional guidelines including blood transfusion. Consider transfusing for haemoglobin 
< 8 g/dL. If possible, maintain selinexor dose as long as patient is clinically stable, but if a dose 
reduction or interruption is desired, consult with the Medical Monitor.

Toxicity and Intensity 
Dose Modification 
Other Selinexor-related adverse events 
Grade 1 or 2 
Maintain dose level and initiate standard supportive care. 
Grade 3 
Delay dose until resolved to ≤ Grade 1, then reduce by 1 dose 
level (Table 2). 
Grade 4 
Discontinue Selinexor and rule out other causes.  If other causes 
of Grade 4 adverse event are uncovered, Selinexor may be re-
initiated at 1 dose level reduction (Table 2). 
All dose modifications should be based on the worst preceding toxicity. 
Isolated values of ≥ Grade 3 alkaline phosphatase values will NOT require dose interruption.  
Determination of liver vs. bone etiology should be made, and evaluation of gamma-glutamyl 
transferase (GGT), 5'-nucleotidase (5’NT), or other liver enzymes should be performed. 
Patients are allowed dose reductions to a minimum dose of 15 mg/m2 as described in Table 2.   
If a patient requires a dose interruption of > 28 days, then the patient must be discontinued 
from the study. Patients who discontinue the study for a study related adverse event or an abnormal 
laboratory value must be followed at least once a week for 28 days and subsequently at 28 day 
intervals until resolution or stabilization of the event, whichever comes first. 
a. Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE Version 4.03 ) otherwise specified 
values. 
 
For all ≥ Grade 3 hematological or non-hematological AEs that are NOT Selinexor related: 
After consultation with the Medical Monitor and at the discretion of the treating physician, 
Selinexor dosing may be maintained provided that the patient can continue to take the agent by 
mouth, or via other enteral route.   
6.3.2 Selinexor Dose Reduction for Decreased Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) 
Selinexor is not significantly eliminated by the kidney. Therefore, no dose alteration of Selinexor 
is required with renal dysfunction.  
6.3.3 Selinexor Dose Adjustment in the Setting of Infection 
Patients with active uncontrolled or suspected infections should have Selinexor treatment 
withheld until infection has clinically resolved or the patient is clinically stabilized. After the 
infection has resolved clinically or the patient’s clinical condition has stabilized, treatment with 
Selinexor may continue at the original dose.  Missed doses will not be replaced. Patients may 
continue on antibiotics for prolonged periods while re-initiating their Selinexor regimen at the 
discretion of the investigator. Note: Over 1,175 patients receiving selinexor were evaluated for 
safety as of 31 May 2016 in clinical studies. Opportunistic infections attributed to selinexor were 
not observed, even with long-term (> 6-month) dosing.  
6.3.4 Conditions not Requiring Selinexor Dose Reduction 
The following conditions are exceptions to the above guidelines.  Selinexor does not need to be 
held in the following cases: 
 
Alopecia of any grade 
 
Electrolyte or serum analyte (e.g., urate) abnormalities that are reversible with standard 
interventions

Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
6.3.5 Missed doses  
A maximum of three doses may be given per week. If the dose was missed for more than 24 
hours, the dose will be skipped and the next dose will be taken as per schedule. If the dose was 
missed within 24 hours, then it will be replaced. Doses should not be administered in less than 
36 hours apart and all missed doses should be documented in the patient diary and the CRF. 
6.3.6 Vomited doses 
If a dose is vomited within one hour of ingestion, it will be replaced. If vomiting occurs more than 
1 hour after dosing, it will still be considered a complete dose. 
 
6.4 
Concomitant Medication and Treatment 
Concomitant medication is defined as any prescription or over-the-counter preparation, including 
vitamins and supplements. Patients may continue their baseline medication(s). All concomitant 
medication(s) must be reported in the case report form (CRF). Any diagnostic, therapeutic or 
surgical procedure performed during the study period should be recorded, including the dates, 
description of the procedure(s) and any clinical findings. Patients should minimize the use of 
products containing acetaminophen to less than 1000 mg acetaminophen on dosing days. 
Acetaminophen can interfere with the metabolism of Selinexor. For combination painkillers 
containing acetaminophen it is recommended that single agent opiates or aspirin combinations 
(when clinically acceptable) be substituted. 
6.4.1 Permitted Concomitant Medication 
Patients will receive concomitant medications to treat symptoms, adverse events and intercurrent 
illnesses that are medically necessary as standard care. Medications to treat concomitant 
diseases like diabetes, hypertension, etc. are allowed. 
6.4.1.1 Prevention of Pregnancy 
Female patients of child-bearing potential must agree to use dual methods of contraception and 
have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening, and male patients must use an effective 
barrier method of contraception if sexually active with a female of child-bearing potential. 
Acceptable methods of contraception are condoms with contraceptive foam, oral, implantable or 
injectable contraceptives, contraceptive patch, intrauterine device, diaphragm with spermicidal 
gel, or a sexual partner who is surgically sterilized or post-menopausal. For both male and female 
patients, effective methods of contraception must be used throughout the study and for three 
months following the last dose. 
6.4.1.2 Use of Blood Products 
During the administration of Selinexor, patients may receive red blood cell (RBC) or platelet 
transfusions, if clinically indicated, per institutional guidelines. Appropriate anti-coagulation is 
allowed during the study (eg: LMW heparin, direct factor Xa inhibitors, etc).  
6.4.2 Prohibited Medications 
Patients should minimize the use of products containing acetaminophen. For combination 
painkillers containing acetaminophen it is recommended that single agent opiates or metamizol 
combinations (when clinically acceptable) be substituted, particularly on the days of Selinexor 
dosing.

Page 53/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
Concurrent therapy with an approved or investigational anticancer therapeutic, other than Ara-C, 
Idarubicin and glucocorticoids as specified herein, is not allowed.  
Use of any immunosuppressive agents during the study must be confirmed by the Medical 
Monitor.    
Other investigational agents should not be used during the study. 
Inactivation of Selinexor by glutathione conjugation is a significant metabolic pathway in vitro and 
in vivo, including in humans. This process can be mediated in the absence of proteins, indicating 
that it is thermodynamically favorable. In vitro studies using human liver microsomes confirm in 
vivo findings that Selinexor undergoes minimal CYP450 metabolism. Therefore, administration of 
Selinexor with drugs which undergo substantial glutathione conjugation should be minimized or 
avoided. These drugs include acetaminophen (paracetamol) and ethyl alcohol. It should be noted 
that studies of Selinexor in combination with acetaminophen are to begin in late 2013 and 
therefore that these recommendations are empirical. It should also be noted that recreational 
ethanol ingestion is associated with glutathione depletion; therefore, the use of products 
containing ethanol should be minimized or avoided on Selinexor dosing days. 
6.5 
Supportive Care Guidelines 
Supportive measures for optimal medical care shall be provided during participation in this clinical 
trial. Supportive care including anti-nausea / anti-emetic therapy, acid suppression (proton pump 
inhibitors and/or H2-blockers), glucocorticoids, and other standard treatments may be 
administered as per institutional guidelines for symptomatic patients. As needed and per 
individual study site institutional guidelines, prophylactic therapies, including antivirals, 
antifungals, and antibiotics, may be administered to ameliorate risks associated with non-
malignant disorders or of immune system compromise.  
All patients are required to receive prophylactic anti-emetics ondansetron 8 mg (or similar 5-HT3 
antagonist) before their first dose of Selinexor and continued two or three times daily, as needed. 
 
6.5.1 Anorexia 
Based on clinical observations in over 1,175 adult patients treated with selinexor as of 31 May 
2016, one of the most frequent treatment-emergent adverse event is anorexia (50%) with poor 
caloric and fluid intake leading to weight loss, fatigue and nausea. Therefore, it is strongly 
recommended that patients at risk for anorexia, weight loss, and/or fatigue receive strong 
nutritional counseling, high caloric beverages with adequate electrolyte levels (e.g., Ensure®), 
prophylaxis with appetite-stimulating agent(s), and anti-emetic agents. Patients with proper 
nutritional support and counseling have remained on Selinexor for >11 months. There is no 
correlation between initial BMI or weight and the development of anorexia. 
In patients with problematic food/liquid/caloric intake, a patient log of food and drink should be 
considered and monitored by the treatment team. 
Fresh juices, simple carbohydrates, as well as ginger can improve appetite before the meal; 
ginger may also improve dysgeusia. 
Since the duration of treatment is short and most of the patients are hospitalized during induction 
treatment patients with anorexia nutrition is usually provided by infusion directly into the circulatory 
system  
If constipation occurs, then laxatives should be given as constipation can contribute to anorexia 
and loss of appetite.

Page 54/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
6.5.2 Fatigue    
Fatigue may be related to underlying malignancy, Selinexor side effects, side effects of other 
agents or concurrent morbidities. Fatigue may also be related to anorexia and/or dehydration, so 
caloric and fluid intake should be optimized in all patients (please see above aggressive 
guidelines for maintenance of food and fluid intake). Acid suppression (proton pump inhibitors 
and/or H2-blockers) may be beneficial in some patients with fatigue. 
6.5.3 Emesis    
Supportive care for nausea and vomiting should be given promptly. The site can consider 
prophylactic treatment in case of previous side effect of nausea and vomiting with prior anti-cancer 
therapy. The treatment should start with the first sign of nausea. Standard anti-emetics are 
allowed and strongly recommended. 
6.5.4 Acute Emesis 
Acute emesis is not a major observation with Selinexor but has been reported. Selinexor 
associated nausea/emesis generally responds to D2-antagonists, 5-HT3 antagonists, or 
combinations of agents. 
5-HT3 receptor antagonists (Zofran® 8 mg on days of dosing) — First-generation 5-HT3 receptor 
antagonists all appear equally effective at preventing nausea/emesis at the recommended doses. 
A single dose of a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist prior to therapy is equivalent to a multiple dose 
schedule. The efficacy of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists is significantly improved when they are 
combined with glucocorticoids.  As QTc prolongation is the main side effect, magnesium and 
potassium 
should 
be 
corrected 
prior 
to 
use. 
If 
first-generation 
5-HT3 
receptor 
antagonists+dexamethasone do not adequately control emesis, second generation 5-HT3 
receptor antagonists (e.g., palonosetron) should be considered. Second generation 5-HT3 
receptor antagonists also improve delayed nausea/emetic response. 
Neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists (e.g., aprepitant or fosaprepitant, Emend®) – should be 
considered in case of uncontrolled emesis with standard treatments as described above. 
Neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists should be given with combination of dexamethasone and first 
or second generation 5-HT3 receptor antagonists. 
Additional treatment: Metoclopramide Hydrochloride 10mg, 30 min before meal (up to 4 time a 
day) or prochlorperazine (standard doses) have been effective in many patients.  Dronabinol 
(Marinol) has shown some activity in both nauea/emesis and anorexia in patients treated with 
Selinexor. Lorazapeam can be added to the combination treatment of 5-HT3 receptor 
antagonists +dexamethasone, e.g., at night, but has been less effective in Selinexor associated 
nausea/emesis. 
6.5.5 Delayed Emesis - > 24h after treatment 
Management — Selinexor is infrequently associated with delayed, resistant emesis. Many of the 
regimens associated with delayed emesis are classified as high-emetic risk, and professional 
guidelines recommend the use of an NK1 receptor antagonist (either NK-1 blockers e.g., 
aprepitant on days 1 to 3 or fosaprepitant on day 1 only), plus a glucocorticoids on days 1 to 4, 
along with a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist (particularly second generation agents) on day 1. This 
regimen is effective against both acute and delayed emesis. The data supporting the individual 
components of this regimen are reviewed below. 

SAIL 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Page 55/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
Olanzapine — Conventional antiemetics are more successful at preventing emesis than in 
preventing nausea, particularly delayed nausea. Olanzapine at the dose of 2.5 to 5 mg once daily 
(typically given at night to mitigate sedative effects) was proven effective in both anti emesis and 
nausea control. It may also be useful for management of breakthrough emesis, and to improve 
food intake in patients with anorexia. 
Glucocorticoids are also consistently useful and should be administered as described above. 
Granisetron transdermal patch — A transdermal preparation of granisetron should be consider in 
patients that have uncontrolled emesis/nausea >grade 2 under best supportive treatment 
Ginger — Supplemental ginger added to foods or at doses of 0.5, 1.0gm powder daily total dose, 
usually in divided doses. Ginger may also improve dysgeusia. 
Additional agents can be added, including lorazepam or alprazolam, a dopaminergic D2-
antagonist (eg, prochlorperazine, thiethylperazine, haloperidol), or substituting high-dose 
intravenous metoclopramide for the 5-HT3 antagonist. 
6.5.6 Diarrhea    
Diarrhea is common at up to 27 % as of 31 May 2016 (mostly Grade 1), which responds to 
standard anti-diarrheal agents. Fluid replacement is important to prevent dehydration, fatigue and 
electrolyte abnormalities (e.g., hyponatremia). 
6.5.7 Hyponatremia   
Hyponatremia Grade 3 (plasma sodium < 130 nM) has been reported in 283 patients (24%) of 
patients treated with selinexor as of 31 May 2016: (please note that Grade 2 hyponatremia is not 
recognized in the CTCAE, v. 4.03; Grade 1 hyponatremia includes any plasma level between 
normal and 130 nM). None of the cases of Grade 3 hyponatremia was symptomatic and all were 
rapidly correctable with standard measures. No instances of Grade 4 hyponatremia have been 
seen. One case was pseudohyponatremia due to hyperglycemia (not associated with Selinexor).  
Most of the patients had anorexia, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea. Two of the patients with 
Grade 3 hyponatremia had third-space fluid accumulation or resolution (e.g., ascites, edema). 
Adequate fluid and caloric intake, including electrolyte rich beverages rather than free water, has 
led to reversal of the hyponatremia. 
6.5.8 Liver enzyme increase   
Liver toxicities in rodents and monkeys were not observed in the GLP toxicology studies. To date, 
significant liver toxicity has not been reported in patients treated with Selinexor.  Patients should 
minimize their use of alcohol and acetaminophen as these drugs may deplete hepatic glutathione 
which could alter Selinexor metabolism. Studies of low dose acetaminophen administered just 
prior to Selinexor (in order to boost hepatic and gastrointestinal levels of Selinexor as 
demonstrated in rat nonclinical studies) are ongoing and will clarify any potential drug-drug 
interactions and/or liver toxicities of this combination.  The secondary goal of these studies is to 
boost hepatic Selinexor levels in order to enhance hepatic anti-tumor activity. Glutathione (GSH) 
replacing agents such as N-acetylcysteine or S-adenosylmethionine may be considered if 
Selinexor induced liver dysfunction is suspected.

SAFETY REPORTING 
The Investigator’s Brochure will be used as reference document for KPT-330 (selinexor) and will 
be provided to the investigators in the investigator’s file. 
 
7.1 
Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities Reporting 
7.1.1 Adverse Event 
An adverse event is defined in the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Guideline for 
Good Clinical Practice as “any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation 
subject administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal 
relationship with this treatment” (ICH E6:1.2). 
An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal 
laboratory finding, for example), symptom or disease temporally associated with the use of a 
medicinal product, whether or not it is considered related to the medicinal product. 
7.1.2 Adverse Drug Reaction 
All untoward and unintended responses to a medicinal product related to any dose administered. 
The phrase “responses to a medicinal product” means that a causal relationship between the 
medicinal product and the adverse event is at least a reasonable possibility, i.e. the relationship 
cannot be ruled out. 
A serious ADR (SADR) is an ADR that meets the definition of serious (provided below). 
7.1.3 Serious Adverse Event 
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an adverse event that meets one or more of the 
following: 
 
is fatal 
 
is life threatening (places the subject at immediate risk of death) 
 
requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization 
 
results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
 
is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
 
other important medical events 
 
A hospitalization meeting the regulatory definition for “serious” is any inpatient hospital 
admission that includes a minimum of an overnight stay in a healthcare facility. Any 
adverse event that does not meet one of the definitions of serious (e.g. visit to A&E, 
outpatient surgery, or requires urgent investigation) may be considered by the investigator 
to meet the “other significant medical hazard” criterion for classification as a serious 
adverse event. Examples include allergic bronchospasm, convulsions, and blood 
dyscrasias. 
Important medical events are defined as those occurrences that may not be immediately life 
threatening or result in death, hospitalization, or disability, but may jeopardize the subject or 
require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes listed above. Medical 
judgment should be exercised in deciding whether such an AE should be considered serious.

Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
7.1.4 NOT to be reported as SAEs 
For this study, the following is not classified as serious adverse event: 
 
Progression or deterioration of the malignancy under study (including new metastatic 
lesions) or death due to progression. 
 
Hospitalization for the performance of protocol-required procedures or administration of 
study treatment. However, hospitalization or a prolonged hospitalization for a complication 
of therapy administration will be reported as an SAE. 
 
Hospitalization or procedures planned prior to study start. A pre-planned procedure must 
be documented in the source documents. However, hospitalization or prolonged 
hospitalization for a complication remains to be reported as an SAE. 
 
An elective hospitalization for a pre-existing condition unrelated to the studied indication. 
 
Hospital admission that is not associated with an adverse event (e.g. social hospitalization 
for purpose of respite care). 
 
Routine treatment or monitoring of the studied indication not associated with any 
deterioration in condition. 
 
The administration of blood or platelet transfusion as routine treatment of studied 
indication. However, hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization for a complication of such 
transfusions remains to be reported as an SAE. 
 
Emergency outpatient treatment or observation that does not result in admission, unless 
fulfilling other seriousness criteria above. 
7.1.5 Adverse events of special interest (AESI) 
The occurrence of acute cerebellar syndrome (ACS) and development of (or worsening of 
existing) cataracts during treatment with Selinexor are closely monitored as AESIs. 
All cases of cerebellar toxicity ≥ Grade 3 must be captured as an SAE and reported in an 
expedited Safety Report within 24 hours of awareness of the event. 
7.1.6 SUSAR/ Unexpected Serious ADR 
A SUSAR/ Unexpected Serious ADR is a suspected unexpected serious adverse reaction. A 
suspected adverse reaction is an adverse event for which there is a reasonable possibility that 
the drug caused the event. An unexpected adverse reaction is any adverse reaction with a 
reasonable possibility that the study drug caused the event and the specificity or severity is not 
consistent with the current investigator’s brochure for Selinexor. Also, reports that provide 
significant information on the specificity or severity of a known, already documented adverse 
event constitute unexpected adverse events. An event more specific or more severe than 
described in the investigator’s brochure would be considered “unexpected”. All suspected adverse 
reactions related to Selinexor which occur in the trial and that are both unexpected and serious 
(SUSARs/ Unexpected Serious ADR) are subject to expedited reporting.

Reporting of SAEs 
Any clinical adverse event or abnormal laboratory test value that is serious occurring during the 
course of the study from the date of signing the informed consent, irrespective of the treatment 
received by the patient, must be reported to the sponsor (via coordinating CRO) within 24 hours 
(expedited reporting). For each patient, all serious adverse events must be reported up to 30 days 
after the last dose of investigational product. Serious adverse events occurring more than 30 days 
after a patient is discontinued from the study treatment may be reported at the discretion of the 
investigator. 
The completed SAE form must be faxed to: 
GSO mbH 
Fax: +49  40 44 19 54 78 
 
The following detailed information must be recorded for each serious adverse event in the SAE 
report form: 
 
A description of the AE in medical terms according to NCI-CTC Version 4.03, not as 
reported by the subject 
 
The severity grade as assessed by the investigator according to the definitions in NCI-
CTC Version 4.03 
 
The date of becoming serious and the date of becoming known (if different) 
 
The reason for seriousness 
 
The outcome of the SAE at the time of the report 
 
Information on administration of the study drug and chemotherapy and any action taken 
 
Information on any treatment procedures necessary for the SAE, concomitant 
medications, relevant lab tests and relevant medical history 
If in any one subject the same SAE occurs on several occasions, then the SAE in question 
must be documented and assessed anew each time. 
The investigator is required to submit SAE Follow-up reports until the SAE has resolved 
or stabilized and all queries have been answered.

Adverse events will be followed until they resolve to baseline or considered stable. It will be left 
to the investigator’s clinical judgment to determine whether an adverse event is related and of 
sufficient severity to require the subject’s removal from treatment or from the study. A subject may 
also voluntarily withdraw from treatment due to what he or she perceives as an intolerable adverse 
event. If either of these situations arises, the subject should be strongly encouraged to undergo 
an end-of-study assessment and be under medical supervision until symptoms cease or the 
condition becomes stable.

Pre-existing diseases, when worsening during study therapy, have to be considered as adverse 
events. They can lead to serious adverse events, if the meet the criteria described in section 
7.1.3. 
Intensity of adverse events will be graded using the National Cancer Institute Common 
Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4.03. If an adverse event occurs which 
is not described in the CTCAE version 4.03, the four-point scale below will be used. 
 
Mild 
Discomfort noticed but no disruption of normal daily activity 
Moderate 
Discomfort sufficient to reduce or affect daily activity 
Severe 
Inability to work or perform normal daily activity 
Life-threatening Represents an immediate threat to life 
 
7.5 
Laboratory Test Abnormalities 
Laboratory test results will be recorded on the laboratory results pages of the CRF. In the event 
of unexplained abnormal laboratory test values, the tests should be repeated immediately and 
followed up until they have returned to the normal range and/or an adequate explanation of the 
abnormality is found. Laboratory test value abnormalities as such should not be reported on the 
AE page of the CRF as adverse events unless they are judged clinical significant by the 
investigator. 
7.6 
Pregnancy 
Female patients must be instructed to immediately inform the investigator if they become pregnant 
during the study. The study treatment must immediately be stopped and the patient must be 
withdrawn from the study. Pregnancies occurring up to 6 months after the completion of the last 
treatment cycle must also be reported to the investigator. The investigator must report all 
pregnancies within 24 hours to GSO mbH. GSO mbH will forward all pregnancy reports to the 
sponsor within 24 hours. The investigator should counsel the patient; discuss the risks of 
continuing the pregnancy and the possible effects on the fetus. The patient should be monitored 
until the conclusion of the pregnancy. 
Pregnancy occurring in the partner of a patient participating in the study should also be reported 
to the investigator, the sponsor and the CRO. The partner should be counseled and followed as 
described above. 
7.7 
Adverse Drug Reactions with Concomitant Medication 
The investigators must be aware that for all concomitant medications the regulations of post-
marketing reporting for suspected adverse drug reactions apply, i.e. reporting to the marketing 
authorization holder or the local regulatory bodies.

BIOSTATISTICS 
8.1 
Trial Design and Hypotheses 
This is a single-arm trial to evaluate efficacy of Selinexor in patients with relapsed/ refractory AML 
by complete response rate (CR) or CRi), as defined by the revised recommendations of the 
International Working Group for diagnosis, standardization of response criteria in Acute Myeloid 
Leukemia for AML. 
The trial tests the null hypothesis that the observed response rate is less or equal than the 
predefined limit of 30% versus the alternative hypothesis that the response rate is at least 60%.: 
 
 
H0 
: 
p ≤ p0  against the alternative hypothesis   H1 
: 
p ≥ p1. 
8.2 
Sample Size Calculation 
The sample size calculation is based on the evaluation of response rates according to Fleming 
using the  A'Hern (Sample size tables for exact single-stage phase II designs. Statist. Med. 
2001;20:859-866.) extension. 
In Fleming's procedure two response levels p0 and p1 are specified: 
 the largest response proportion p0 which, if true, would clearly imply that the treatment does 
not warrant further investigations (except for other types of administration, e.g. in standardized 
combinations); and 
 the minimum required response level p1 that would imply the treatment warrants further 
investigations. 
The following characteristics were specified  
 p0 = 0.30 
 p1 = 0.60 
  = 0.05   (one-tailed) and 
 β = 0.10 
N=25 patients should participate in the study to ensure a power of 1–=0.90 for the discrimination 
of p0 and p1. According to Fleming the null hypothesis should be rejected if at least

responses are observed (x* denotes the nearest integer to). With p0 and N defined as above and 
Z1– = (1 – )-quantile of the normal distribution = 1.645 at least 12 responders should be 
observed to show the efficacy as postulated. 
 
Using the same approach in the 15 additional patients, submitted to an adapted drug regimen, 
the power will be 80% to discriminate a p0=30% (expected CR rate) from a p1=65% (meaningful 
increase in CR rate), if 8 out of 14 completed patients are considered as responders, with a one-
tailed alpha error of 5%.  
Alternatively, the power will be 90% to discriminate a p0=30% from a p1=70% again if 8 out of 14 
completed patients are considered as responders, with a one-tailed alpha error of 5%.

Evaluation Categories for Patients 
A Data Review will be performed prior to the data base lock. In this meeting the patients will be 
assigned to the respective analysis set depending on the observed protocol deviations.. 
 
8.3.1 Intent-to-Treat Population 
Intent-to-Treat Analysis Set (ITT):  The ITT-population includes all subjects who have received 
study medication at least once and for whom efficacy data upon treatment are available. 
 
8.3.2 Per Protocol Population 
Per Protocol Set (PP):  The PP population includes all patients who completed the treatment 
section (up to Visit 9) without any major protocol deviation. 
 
8.3.3 Safety Population 
Safety Analysis Set (SAS):  The SAS- Set will comprise all subjects who received at least one 
administration of study medication at any dosage and for any period of time. 
 
8.4 
Methods of Statistical Analysis 
8.4.1 General Statistical Considerations 
All statistical analyses will be performed and all summary tables and data listings will be prepared 
using the most recently installed version of the Statistical Analysis System® (SAS) software at 
the time of statistical analysis. For continuous variables, summary statistics (mean, standard 
deviation, median, minimum and maximum values) will be tabulated. For discrete variables, the 
frequency distribution will be tabulated. Statistical tests will be of descriptive nature only except 
for the analysis of the responder rate. 
The following chapter describes the planned statistical analyses at the time of writing the study 
protocol. More details about the statistical analyses will be provided in the separate Statistical 
Analysis Plan (SAP), which will be finalized before enrolment of the first subject. Any changes in 
the statistical methods compared to the final SAP will be documented in the integrated Clinical 
Study Report.

8.4.3 Efficacy Evaluation 
Primary Efficacy Parameter 
The primary efficacy measure will be the rate of complete responders (CR). Disease status will 
be assessed by bone marrow and peripheral blood analysis at the end of each 4-weeks induction 
and consolidation cycle. Disease status during maintenance will be evaluated by peripheral blood 
analysis at the end of each cycle and during follow-up after SCT every 3 months ± 28 days. Bone 
marrow aspirate during maintenance and FU is required in case peripheral blood analysis is 
suspicious for progression of disease/relapse. Response is evaluated according to Döhner et al. 
criteria1. 
 
Secondary Efficacy Parameters 
The secondary efficacy measures will be: 
 
Rate of partial remissions 
 
Percentage of patients being transplanted after induction therapy 
 
Early death rate 
 
Overall survival (OS) 
 
Event-free survival (Events are defined as Death, not achieving a CR or CRi, Relapse 
after CR or CRi)

DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE 
 
Accurate and reliable data collection will be assured by verification and cross–check of the CRFs 
against the investigator’s records by the study monitor (source document verification), and the 
maintenance of a drug–dispensing log by the investigator. Data for this study will be recorded via 
CRF. It will be transcribed by the site from the source documents onto the CRF. Data are reviewed 
and checked for omissions, apparent errors, and values requiring further clarifications using 
computerized and manual procedures. Data queries requiring clarification are communicated to 
the site for resolution. Only authorized personnel will make corrections to the clinical database 
and an audit trail will document all corrections.

10 DATA MONITORING COMMITTEE 
 
An independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) will be implemented that reviews 
accumulating data of the clinical trial with respect to any potential safety issues, study progress 
and critical efficacy endpoints. The DMC will function in accordance with the principles of the 
following 
documents: 
EMA 
guideline 
on 
data 
monitoring 
committees 
(EMEA/CHMP/EWP/5872/03 Corr), ICH Note for guidance E3 (structure and content of clinical 
study reports), ICH Note for guidance E6 (Good Clinical Practice), ICH Note for Guidance E9 
(Statistical Principles for Clinical Trials) and Directive 2001/20/EC relating to the implementation 
of good clinical practice in the conduct of  clinical trials on medical products for human use. 
The DMC will be an independent board consisting of 2-3 physicians with special expertise in AML. 
A physician is not allowed to participate in this clinical trial while serving on the DMC. The DMC 
will be supported by an independent statistician, if necessary. 
The DMC will review safety data, recovery times and efficacy of the clinical trial and support the 
interpretation of clinical trial results.   
A DMC charter will be set up which defines the roles and responsibilities of the DMC.

11 ETHICAL ASPECTS 
 
11.1 Declaration of Helsinki / Good Clinical Practice 
The Declaration of Helsinki is the accepted basis for clinical study ethics, and must be fully 
followed and respected by all those engaged in research on human beings. Any exceptions must 
be justified and stated in the protocol. The latest version of the Declaration of Helsinki is available 
at www.wma.net. 
Additionally it is the responsibility of all those engaged in research on human beings to ensure 
that the study is performed in accordance with the international standards of Good Clinical 
Practice and according to all local laws and regulations concerning clinical studies. 
 
11.2 Patient Information and Informed Consent 
It is the responsibility of the investigator to obtain written informed consent from each patient 
participating in this study, after an adequate explanation of the aims, importance, anticipated 
benefits, potential hazards and consequences of the study according to applicable local laws. 
Written informed consent must be obtained before any study-specific procedures are performed. 
It must be also explained to the patient that they are completely free to refuse to enter the study 
or to withdraw from it at any time, for any reason, without incurring any penalty or withholding of 
treatment on the part of the investigator.  
With the declaration of consent, the patient agrees to data about his/ her disease being recorded 
within the context of the clinical trial and that it may be transferred to the sponsor in 
pseudonymized form. 
The subject/ patient also agrees to allow the monitor/ auditor/ health authorities to verify the 
patient data collected against the subject’s/ patient’s original medical records for the purpose of 
source data verification.  
The informed consent form personally signed and dated by the patient must be kept on file by the 
investigator(s) and documented in the CRF and the subject’s medical records. The investigator 
must confirm with the sponsor/coordinating CRO that he/ she has obtained written informed 
consent. 
If new safety information results in significant changes to the risk/ benefit assessment, the consent 
form should be reviewed and updated if necessary. All patients (including those already being 
treated) should be informed of the new information and must give their written informed consent 
to continue in the study. 
If family doctors are to be informed of their patients’ participation in the clinical study, this should 
be mentioned in the consent form. 
 
11.3 Independent Ethics Committees and Regulatory Authorities 
11.3.1 Approval of the Study by the Regulatory Authority and Independent Ethics Committees 
It is the responsibility of the sponsor to obtain and maintain independent approval from the 
applicable regulatory authority and a positive opinion from the competent ethics committees to 
conduct the study in accordance with local legal requirements and statutes.  
Indemnity insurance will be arranged for the trial subjects in accordance with the applicable local 
law.

Protocol modifications to ongoing studies must be made via amendment. The sponsor is 
responsible for obtaining independent approval for substantial amendments from the applicable 
regulatory authority and a positive opinion from the competent ethics committees in accordance 
with local legal requirements, statutes and the European Clinical Trial Directive. Approval must 
be obtained before any changes can be implemented, except for changes necessary in order to 
eliminate an immediate hazard to trial subjects or when the changes are non-substantial and 
involve only logistical or administrative aspects of the trial (e.g. change of telephone numbers).

13 STUDY DOCUMENTATION, CRFS AND RECORD-KEEPING 
 
13.1 Investigator’s Files / Retention of Documents 
The investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of the study 
to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These documents should 
be classified into two separate categories: investigator’s study file and subject/ patient data. 
The investigator’s study file will contain all essential documents such as the protocol/ 
amendments, case report and query forms, patient information and informed consent form, ethics 
committee and regulatory authority approval, notification of the federal regulatory authority and 
competent regional authorities (if applicable), drug records, staff curriculum vitae and 
authorisation forms, and other appropriate documents/correspondence, etc. 
Patient data includes patient hospital/clinic records (e.g. medical reports, surgery reports 
appointment book, medical records, pathology and laboratory reports, ECG, EEG, X-ray, etc.), 
signed informed consent forms and patient screening and eligibility screening forms.  
The investigator must keep these two categories of documents on file for at least 15 years (or 
longer, as legally required) after completion or discontinuation of the study. The documents must 
be archived in a secure place and treated as confidential material.  
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, the sponsor must be notified in advance. 
If the investigator cannot guarantee this archiving requirement at the investigational site for any 
or all of the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and the 
sponsor to store these in sealed containers outside of the site so that they can be returned sealed 
to the investigator in the event of a regulatory audit. Where source documents are required for 
the continued care of the patient, appropriate copies should be made for storing outside of the 
site. 
All documents must be archived in a secure place and treated as confidential material. 
 
13.2 Source Documents and Background Data 
The investigator shall supply the sponsor on request with any required background data from the 
study documentation or clinic records. This is particularly important when case report forms are 
illegible or when errors in data transcription are suspected. In the event of special problems and/or 
governmental queries or requests for audit inspections, it is also necessary to have access to the 
complete study records, provided that patient confidentiality is protected. According to the 
standards of the data protection law, all data obtained in the course of a clinical study must be 
treated with discretion in order to guarantee the rights of the patient’s privacy. 
13.3 Audits and Inspections 
This study may be audited by the sponsor, any person authorised by the sponsor, or the 
competent health authority in order to determine the authenticity of the recorded data and 
compliance with the study protocol.  

SAIL 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Page 71/87 
Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
The investigator must be aware that source documents for this trial should be made available to 
appropriately qualified personnel working on behalf of the sponsor/monitor/auditor/health 
authority inspectors after appropriate notification for the purposes of source data verification and 
proper review of the study progress. The verification of the case report form data must be done 
via direct inspection of the source documents. The investigator agrees to comply with the sponsor 
and regulatory authority requirements regarding the auditing of the study. 
All materials used in clinical studies are subjected to quality control. 
 
13.4 Case Report Forms 
For each patient enrolled, acase report form must be completed and signed by the principal 
investigator or an authorised delegate from the study team. This also applies to records for those 
patients who fail to complete the study. If a patient withdraws from the study, the reason must be 
noted in the CRF. If a patient is withdrawn from the study because of a treatment-limiting adverse 
event, thorough efforts should be made to document the outcome clearly.

14 MONITORING THE STUDY 
 
The monitor is responsible for familiarising the investigator(s) and the entire centre staff involved 
in the study with all study procedures, including the administration of the study drug. 
The monitor will visit the clinical study centre before the first patient has been enrolled (initiation 
visit). During the study, the monitor will visit the site regularly to check the completeness of patient 
records, the accuracy of entries on the CRFs (source data verification), the adherence to the 
protocol to Good Clinical Practice, the progress of enrollment, and to ensure that study drug is 
being stored, dispensed, and accounted for according to specifications.  
Key study personnel must be available to assist the monitor during these visits. The investigator 
(or his/her deputy) agrees to cooperate with the monitor to ensure that any problems detected in 
the course of these monitoring visits are resolved.

15 CONFIDENTIALITY OF TRIAL DOCUMENTS AND PATIENT RECORDS 
 
The investigator and the sponsor (or designated person) must ensure that all data obtained in the 
course of a clinical study is treated with discretion in order to guarantee the rights of the patient’s 
privacy, according to the standards of the data protection law. CRFs or other documents should 
be submitted to the sponsor in pseudonymised form. The investigator should keep a patient 
identification log showing codes and names. The investigator should maintain documents not 
intended for submission to the sponsor, e.g. patients’ written consent forms, in the strictest 
confidence.

16 STUDY REPORT AND PUBLICATION POLICY  
 
This study will be entered into a clinical trial protocol registry and clinical results database. The 
sponsor is responsible for the timely reporting of study data. An integrated clinical study report 
(CSR) has to be completed one year after the end of the study (whether completed or prematurely 
terminated). The report has to be approved by the responsible specialist chosen by the sponsor, 
the project manager of the CRO, the statistician and the coordinating investigator by provision of 
their signatures. In this multi-centre study, the main publication will be a full publication of all data 
from all sites. Any publication of the results, either in part or in whole (abstracts in journals, oral 
presentations, etc.) by investigators or their representatives will require a pre-submission review 
by the sponsor and the coordinating investigator. This requirement only serves the information of 
the sponsor and does not imply any claim to any editing or restriction of the content of publications 
and presentations. The coordinating investigator will be the first author. The senior author of the 
study will be the last author. The remaining positions will be based on recruitment, good data 
quality and scientific input to the study. The final author list will be a joint agreement between the 
coordinating investigator and the sponsor. For all other publications, the order of the authors will 
be determined according to recruitment, data quality and significant scientific input to the study, 
after consulting the coordinating investigator.

17.2 Appendix 2 - Adverse Event Categories for Determining Relationship to Test Drug 
 
Related (must have one of them) 
 
This category applies to those adverse events that are considered to be related to the test 
drug. An adverse event may be considered related if: 
 
It follows a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of the drug 
 
It cannot be reasonably explained by the known characteristics of the subject’s clinical 
state, environmental or toxic factors or other modes of therapy administered to the subject 
 
It disappears or decreases on cessation or reduction in dose. (There are important excep-
tions when an adverse event does not disappear upon discontinuation of the drug, yet 
drug-relatedness clearly exists: e.g. (1) bone marrow depression, (2) tardive dyskinesias.) 
 
It follows a known pattern of response to the suspected drug 
 
It reappears upon rechallenge 
 
Unrelated 
This category is applicable to those adverse events which are judged to be clearly and incon-
trovertibly due only to extraneous causes (disease, environment, etc.) and do not meet the criteria 
for drug relationship listed under related.

17.3 Appendix 3 – Definitions According to ICH Topic E2A Clinical Safety Data Management, 
Definitions and Standards for Expedited Reporting, (CPMP/ICH/377/95) 
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject 
who has been administered a pharmaceutical product, and which does not necessarily have to 
have a causal relationship with this treatment. 
Adverse reactions are defined as all untoward and unintended responses to an investigational 
medicinal product related to any dose administered. The phrase "responses to a medicinal 
products" means that a causal relationship between a medicinal product and an adverse event is 
at least a reasonable possibility, i.e., the relationship cannot be ruled out. 
A serious adverse event or serious adverse reaction is any experience that suggests a significant 
hazard, contraindication, side effect or precaution. It is any adverse event that at any dose fulfils 
at least one of the following criteria: 
 
is fatal (results in death) (NOTE: Death is an outcome, not an event) 
 
is life-threatening (NOTE: The term “life-threatening” refers to an event in which the patient 
was at immediate risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an event which 
could hypothetically have caused a death had it been more severe) 
 
required in-patient hospitalisation or prolongation of existing hospitalisation 
 
results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 
 
is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
 
is medically significant or requires intervention to prevent one or other of the outcomes 
listed above 
Medical and scientific judgement should be exercised in deciding whether expedited reporting to 
the sponsor is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical events that may not be 
immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalisation but may jeopardise the patient or 
may require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in the definitions above. These 
situations should also usually be considered serious. 
Examples of such events are intensive treatment in A&E or at home for allergic bronchospasm; 
blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in hospitalisation, or development of drug 
dependency or drug abuse. 
An unexpected adverse event, the nature or severity of which is not consistent with the applicable 
product information (e.g., Investigator's Brochure for an unapproved investigational medicinal 
product) 
Causality is initially assessed by the investigator. With respect to the obligation to report and 
document (regulatory authorities, ethics committees and other investigators) serious adverse 
events, causality can be one of two possibilities: 
 
No (unrelated; equals not drug-related) 
 
Yes (remotely, possibly or probably drug-related) 
All adverse events not assessed as definitively “not drug-related” by the investigator will be 
considered as adverse drug reactions. 
A suspected unexpected serious adverse reaction (SUSAR) is a serious adverse reaction whose 
nature or severity is not consistent with the applicable product information.

It is important that the severity of an adverse event is not confused with the seriousness of the 
event. For example, vomiting which persists for many hours may be severe, but is not necessarily 
a serious adverse event. On the other hand, stroke which results in only a limited degree of 
disability may be considered a mild stroke, but would be a serious adverse event. 
A serious adverse event occurring during the study or which comes to the attention of the 
investigator within three weeks of stopping the treatment or during the protocol-defined follow-up 
period, if this is longer, must be reported, whether considered treatment-related or not. In addition, 
serious adverse events occurring after this time should be reported if considered related to test 
“drug”. 
Such preliminary reports will be followed by detailed descriptions later that will include copies of 
hospital case reports, autopsy reports and other documents. 
For serious adverse events, the following must be assessed and recorded on the adverse events 
page of the case report form: intensity, relationship to test substance, action taken, and outcome 
to date. 
The obligation to document and report must be adhered to according to the national and inter-
national laws and regulations.

Current version: Version 3.1, 13.01.2017 
Death in aplasia 
Deaths occurring ≥ 7 days following completion of initial treatment while 
cytopenic; with an aplastic or hypoplastic bone marrow obtained within 7 
days of death, without evidence of persistent leukemia 
Death from 
indeterminate 
cause 
Deaths occurring before completion of therapy; or < 7 days following its 
completion; or deaths occurring ≥ 7 days following completion of initial 
therapy with no blasts in the blood, but no bone marrow examination 
available 
Relapse¶ 
Bone marrow blasts ≥ 5%;  
or reappearance of blasts in the blood;  
or development of extramedullary disease 
EMD  extamedullary disease 
* All criteria need to be fulfilled; marrow evaluation should be based on a count of 200 
nucleated cells in an aspirate with spicules; if ambiguous, consider repeat exam after 5 to 
7 days; flow cytometric evaluation may help to distinguish between persistent leukemia and 
regenerating normal marrow; a marrow biopsy should be performed in cases of dry tap, or 
if no spicules are obtained; no minimum duration of response required. 
† The criterion of CRi is of value in protocols using intensified induction or double induction 
strategies, in which hematologic recovery is not awaited, but intensive therapy will be 
continued. In such protocols, CR may even not be achieved in the course of the entire 
treatment plan. In these instances, the overall remission rate should include CR and CRi 
patients. Some patients may not achieve complete hematologic recovery upon longer 
observation times. 
‡  This category may be useful in the clinical development of novel agents within phase 1 
clinical trials, in which a transient morphologic leukemia-free state may be achieved at the 
time of early response assessment. 
§  Four studies showed that failure to convert to a normal karyotype at the time of CR predicts 
inferior outcome. 
i   As an example, in CBF AML low-level PCR-positivity can be detected in patients even in 
long-term remission. Normalizing to 104 copies of ABL1 in accordance with standardized 
criteria, transcript levels below 12 to 10 copies appear to be predictive for long-term 
remission. 
¶  In cases with low blast percentages (5-10%), a repeat marrow should be performed to 
confirm relapse. Appearance of new dysplastic changes should be closely monitored for 
emerging relapse. In a patient who has been recently treated, dysplasia or a transient 
increase in blasts may reflect a chemotherapy effect and recovery of hematopoiesis. 
Cytogenetics should be tested to distinguish true relapse from therapy-related MDS/AµL.
