Patient description: A 54-year-old obese woman admitted to the emergency department with abdominal pain that started 4 days ago with nausea and vomiting. The epigastric pain radiates to the right upper quadrant, getting worse after eating fatty food. The patient experienced similar pain twice in the past year. Her past medical history is remarkable for hypercholesterolemia and 2 NVDs. She has 2 children, and she is menopausal. She does not smoke, drink alcohol, or use illicit drugs. She is mildly febrile. Her BP is 150/85, HR 115, RR 15, T 38.2, SpO2 98% on RA. She is an obese woman with no acute distress. On palpation, she experiences epigastric tenderness and tenderness in the right upper quadrant without rebound. Bowel sounds are normal. Laboratory analysis is remarkable for elevated ESR and leukocytosis with a left shift. The ultrasound revealed several gallstones, biliary sludge and CBD stones. The smallest stone is 14mm.

Adequate renal function as documented by creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min based on the Cockcroft-Gault equation. 7. In the absence of rapidly proliferative disease, the interval from prior leukemia-directed therapy to first dose of study drug will be at least 7 days for cytotoxic or non-cytotoxic (immunotherapy) agents. Use of supportive care measures per institution's standard of care is permitted at any time. 8. The effects of brequinar on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

Male subjects must agree to refrain from sperm donation from initial study drug administration until 90 days after the last dose of study drug  Patients in need of immediate leukapheresis. 2. Any concurrent uncontrolled clinically significant medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that could place the participant at unacceptable risk of study treatment. 3. QTc interval using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 470 msec. Participants with a bundle branch block and prolonged QTc interval may be eligible after discussion with the medical monitor. 4. Pre-existing liver disease. 5. The use of other chemotherapeutic agents or anti-leukemic agents is not permitted during study with the following exceptions: a. Intrathecal chemotherapy for prophylactic use or maintenance of controlled CNS leukemia. 6. Presence of graft versus host disease (GVHD) which requires an equivalent dose of ≥ 0.5 mg/kg/day of prednisone or therapy beyond systemic corticosteroids (e.g. cyclosporine or other calcineurin inhibitors or other immunosuppressive agents used for GVHD). 7. Active cerebrospinal involvement of AML, T-cell leukemia (T-ALL), bi-lineal leukemia (BLL), or mixed phenotypic acute leukemia (MPAL). 8. Diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) 9. Clinically active hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV) infection. 10. Severe gastrointestinal or metabolic condition that could interfere with the absorption of oral study medication. 11. Prior malignancy, unless it has not been active or has remained stable for at least 2 years. Participants with treated non-melanoma skin cancer, in situ carcinoma or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, regardless of the disease-free duration, are eligible if definitive treatment for the condition has been completed. Participants with organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of recurrent or progressive disease are eligible if at the active surveillance stage, hormonal therapy has been initiated, or the malignancy has been surgically removed or treated with definitive radiotherapy. 12. Nursing women or women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) with a positive pregnancy test. 13. Documented hemoglobinopathy
