About this trial

This study aims to evaluate an integrated treatment protocol for adults with Philadelphia chromosome-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph- ALL), combining induction chemotherapy, consolidation therapy, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) to improve treatment efficacy and survival rates. The single-arm, open-label, multicenter study will enroll 50 newly diagnosed patients aged 18-60 years. The induction phase employs the VICP+VEN regimen (vindesine, idarubicin, cyclophosphamide, prednisone combined with venetoclax), followed by consolidation therapy with either Hyper-CVAD or CAM protocols, with eligible patients proceeding to allo-HSCT. Primary endpoints include disease-free survival (DFS) and complete remission (CR) rates, while secondary endpoints encompass relapse rate, overall survival (OS), and safety. Patients will be followed for 2 years with regular monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) and adverse events. The protocol is designed to reduce relapse risk through intensive therapy and transplantation, offering a potential cure for high-risk patients.The goal is to complete the entire treatment within 4 months after diagnosis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: 18 to 60 years;

Diagnosis must comply with the Chinese Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (2024 Edition), requiring MICM (Morphology, Immunology, Cytogenetics, and Molecular genetics) integration and WHO 2022 (5th edition) classification standards. The minimal diagnostic workup must include morphological assessment and immunophenotyping to differentiate ALL from acute myeloid leukemia (AML). All patients shall undergo bone marrow aspiration plus biopsy at initial diagnosis. A definitive ALL diagnosis requires ≥20% blasts/immature lymphocytes in bone marrow (Note: Patients with <20% blasts due to fever or glucocorticoid pretreatment require comprehensive evaluation incorporating medical history and ancillary tests for differential diagnosis);

ECOG Performance Status: 0-2

Disqualifiers

Intracranial hemorrhage

Pregnancy

Psychiatric disorders or other conditions compromising protocol compliance

Severe cardiac arrhythmia with ECG abnormalities (QTc >500 ms)

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Induction Therapy Regimen

    Drug

    VICP+VEN regimen: * Vindesine: 3 mg/m²/day (max 4 mg), administered on days 1, 8, 15, 22. * Idarubicin (IDA): 8 mg/m², days 1, 8, 15, 22. * Cyclophosphamide (CTX): 500 mg/m², days 7, 21. * Prednisone: 1 mg/kg/day, days 1-14; 0.5 mg/kg/day, days 15-28 * Venetoclax (VEN) 8-day ramp-up: Day 1: 100 mg, Day 2: 200 mg, Days 3-8: 400 mg/day

  • Pre-Treatment Regimen

    Drug

    Indications for pre-treatment: * WBC ≥30×10⁹/L, or significant hepatosplenomegaly/lymphadenopathy. * Laboratory signs of tumor lysis syndrome (e.g., electrolyte abnormalities). Pre-treatment protocol: * Glucocorticoids (e.g., prednisone or dexamethasone): Prednisone 1 mg/kg/day (PO/IV) for 3-5 days. * Optional addition of CTX: 200 mg/m²/day IV for 3-5 days.

  • Post-CR Treatment

    Other intervention

    Principles: 1. MRD-positive or rising: Administer blinatumomab (CD19/CD3 bispecific antibody) for residual disease clearance, followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). 2. MRD-negative/unknown: Continue multi-agent chemotherapy ± blinatumomab consolidation. Allo-HSCT for patients with high-risk clinical/genetic features.

  • Post-CR Consolidation Regimens

    Drug

    ① Hyper-CVAD-B (Methotrexate/Cytarabine-based): * Methotrexate (MTX): 1 g/m² IV over 24h (Day 1) with urine alkalinization (pH \>7.0) and leucovorin rescue. * Cytarabine (Ara-C): 1 g/m² IV q12h (Days 2-3; total 4 doses). * Dexamethasone: 40 mg/day (PO/IV, Days 1-4). * Cycle interval: 21-28 days (alternating with other regimens). ② CAM Regimen: * CTX: 750 mg/m² IV (split over 2 days). * Ara-C: 75 mg/m²/dose (8 days; 1-2 doses/day IV; if once daily, administer 5 days/week × 2 weeks). * 6-MP: 50-75 mg/m²/day fasting (7-14 days PO).

  • Transplant-Eligible Subsequent Therapy

    Other intervention

    * Allo-HSCT for eligible patients after induction. * Conditioning regimen: TBI-VP16-CY. * Donor priority: HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD), Matched unrelated donor (MUD), Haploidentical donor (Haplo).(Consider age/donor health status).

  • Allo-HSCT Protocol

    Other intervention

PO: 3-5 mg/kg/day BID (switch delayed until Day +10 if no aGVHD); Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) + short-course methotrexate.
