About this trial

This randomized, open label, multi arm phase II trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax based induction regimens of varying intensity (VA, VAM, or 2+5+V) versus standard 3+7 in fit patients aged ≥14 years with newly diagnosed AML. The trial is designed to select the optimal regimen as the experimental arm for a subsequent phase III randomized controlled trial.

A total of 320 patients will be enrolled in this study,and segregated into four groups with 80 in each group. Patients who achieve CR/CRi/CRh after using different induction regimens will receive the same consolidation. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is recommended for patients in the high-risk group or those with persist MRD positivity. After completion of the treatment phase, patients entered the follow-up period.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Diagnosis of AML per WHO (2022) or ICC criteria, and MDS/AML as defined by ICC (with bone marrow blast percentage of 10%-20%).

Age ≥14 years, male or female.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2.

Judged by the investigator to be suitable for intensive induction chemotherapy and expected to tolerate the treatment intensity specified in the protocol.

Disqualifiers

Acute promyelocytic leukemia with PML-RARA fusion gene.

Acute myeloid leukemia with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 or CBFB-MYH11 fusion gene.

Acute myeloid leukemia with BCR-ABL fusion gene.

Presence of FLT3 mutation (these patients are recommended to be enrolled in clinical trials of FLT3 inhibitors).
