This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study designed to compare overall survival in participants with relapsed or refractory AML treated with idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus participants treated with placebo and cytarabine. Participants will receive induction treatment with idasanutlin/placebo and cytarabine (Cycle 1). Responding participants may continue to receive a maximum of further two cycles of consolidation (Cycle 2 and Cycle 3). Complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp), overall remission rate (ORR), event-free survival (EFS) and percentage of participants with an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) will also be compared between treatment arms. This study will include participants with and without TP53 wild type (TP53 WT) mutations.

Overall Survival in TP53 WT Population
P53 tumor protein Wild Type (TP53 WT) population's Overall Survival was compared in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who had been randomized to idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus those who had been randomized to cytarabine and placebo. The study was terminated because of futility, therefore did not reach the planned end of the study.
Time frame: From randomization to death from any cause (up to approximately 4.5 years)
Percentage of Participants in Complete Response (CR) at the End of Induction According to Hematologic Malignancy Response Assessment (HMRA) in TP53 WT Population
Rate of complete response at the end of induction in the TP53 WT population was compared in participants who had been randomized to idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus those who had been randomized to cytarabine and placebo. The design followed a hierarchical statistical testing framework.
Time frame: At the end of induction (up to Day 56)
Event-Free Survival (EFS) According to HMRA in TP53 WT Population
Event Free Survival (EFS) is defined as the time from the date of randomization to whichever occurs first: treatment failure (failure to achieve CR, set as day of final response assessment), relapse from CR, or death from any cause. The study was terminated because of futility, therefore did not reach the planned end of the study. The design followed a hierarchical statistical testing framework.
Time frame: From randomization up to treatment failure, relapse, or death from any cause (up to approximately 4.5 years)
Percentage of Participants With Overall Remission (CR, CRp, and CRi) at the End of Induction According to HMRA in TP53 WT Population
Rate of overall remission (complete remission, complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery, complete remission with incomplete platelet count recovery) at the end of induction in the TP53 WT population was compared in participants who had been randomized to idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus those who had been randomized to cytarabine and placebo. The design followed a hierarchical statistical testing framework.
Time frame: At the end of induction (up to Day 56)
Duration of Remission Following CR (DOR) in TP53 WT Population
DOR is defined for patients achieving complete remission and is the time from clinical remission until relapse or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. For patients with none of these events before time of analysis, DOR is censored at the date of the patient's last response assessment. The Median upper limits were set to 999 because they were not reached and therefore it was Not Evaluable (NE) and the field is numeric only. The study was terminated because of futility, therefore did not reach the planned end of the study.
Time frame: From achieving CR until relapse or death from any cause (up to approximately 4.5 years)

Number of Participants With Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities in Biochemistry Tests at the Greatest Severity, According to NCI-CTCAE v4.03
Laboratory parameters for blood biochemistry will be measured and compared with a standard reference range. Values outside the standard reference range are considered abnormalities. A laboratory test result will be reported as an adverse event if it meets any of the following criteria: is accompanied by clinical symptoms; results in a change in study treatment or a medical intervention; or is clinically significant in the investigator's judgment. For each patient, baseline is the last observation prior to initiation of study drug. For each laboratory test, patients with at least 1 post-baseline assessment are included in the analysis. For each cell, the denominator is the number of patients with baseline NCI-CTCAE Grade 0-2 in the specified direction of abnormality, or Grade 1-4 in the opposite direction of abnormality.
