About this trial

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with azacitidine(VA) induction followed by bridging allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of hypoplastic and secondary acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age ≥18 years.

Previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosed according to the 2022 ELN guidelines. Patients with isolated extramedullary disease (i.e., no evidence of AML in bone marrow or peripheral blood) are not eligible.

Bone marrow biopsy demonstrating cellularity <20% or concurrent myelofibrosis; Or a prior history of an antecedent hematologic disorder, radiotherapy/chemotherapy-related history, or presence of myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC according to WHO-HEAM5).

The patient is deemed suitable for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as assessed by the treating physician.

Disqualifiers

Prior treatment for AML, except non-cytotoxic therapy given to stabilize disease.

White blood cell count ≥10×10⁹/L, or presence of proliferation-associated gene mutations such as FLT3.

Favorable risk group according to the 2022 ELN prognostic stratification, e.g., t(8;21), inv(16)/t(16;16), NPM1 mutation, or CEBPA bZIP in-frame mutation.

No suitable stem cell donor available.

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Venetoclax (VEN)

    Drug

    Venetoclax was administered at 100 mg on day 1, 200 mg on day 2, and 400 mg on days 3-28 of cycle 1.

  • Azacitidine (AZA)

    Drug

    Azacitidine was administered at 75 mg/m² on days 1-7 of cycle 1.

  • Allo-HSCT

    Procedure/Surgery

    All patients proceeded directly to allogeneic HSCT after cycle 1, regardless of remission. Myeloablative or intensified conditioning was preferred; reduced-intensity conditioning was allowed for intolerant patients. Donor source and transplant type were not restricted.
