Brief summary:
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1 study of MLN8237 in participants with advanced hematological malignancies for whom there are limited standard treatment options.

Detailed description:
The drug being tested in this study is called alisertib. Alisertib is being tested to treat people who have advanced hematological malignancies. This study determined the dose-limiting toxicity, maximum tolerated dose, safety and pharmacokinetics (how the drug moves through the body) for alisertib when given once or twice a day for 7 to 21 days.

This open label study enrolled 58 patients. Participants were enrolled in one of 3 treatment groups:

* Part 1: Powder-in-Capsule (PIC) Dose Escalation (alisertib 25 mg PIC, orally twice daily \[BID\] on Day 1 \[loading dose\] and then alisertib 25 or 35 mg PIC once daily \[QD\] for 21 days (D), or alisertib 35, 45, 65 or 90 mg PIC, orally, QD for 14D) in 28-day cycles
* Part 1: Enteric-coated Tablet (ECT) Dose Escalation (alisertib 40 mg, ECT, orally, QD for 14D or alisertib 30, 40 or 50 mg, orally, BID for 7D) in 28-day cycles
* Part 2: Participants with Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL) (alisertib 50 mg ECT, orally, BID for 7D) in 21-day cycles

All participants received treatment for 12 months or until their disease progressed or they experienced unacceptable alisertib-related toxicity. This multi-center trial was conducted in the United States. The overall time to participate in this study was 422 days. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic, including a final visit 30 days after receiving their last dose of alisertib for a follow-up assessment.

Arms: arm 1: Alisertib 25 or 35 mg, Powder-in-Capsule (PIC) formulation, orally, once daily (QD) for 21 days followed by a 7-day recovery period in 28-day cycles or alisertib 35, 45, 65 or 90 mg PIC, orally, (QD for 14 days followed by a 14-day recovery period in 28-day cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable alisertib-related toxicity (up to 14 cycles). All participants received an initial starting dosage of alisertib PIC 25 mg, orally, twice daily (BID) on Day 1 (loading dose), followed by their respective dosage assignment. arm 2: Alisertib 40 mg, Enteric-coated Tablet (ECT) formulation, orally, QD for 14 days followed by a 14-day recovery period in 28-day cycles, or alisertib 30, 40 or 50 mg ECT, orally BID for 7 days followed by a 14-day recovery period in 21-day cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable alisertib-related toxicity (up to 15 cycles). arm 3: Participants with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) received alisertib 50 mg ECT, orally, BID for 7 days followed by a 14-day recovery period in 21-day cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable alisertib-related toxicity (up to 2 cycles).
