Overview
This study aims to assess the therapeutic efficacy and safety of venetoclax in combination with azacitidine and CAG as induction regimen in Patients with Refreactory/Relapse Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
Description
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase II clinical trial to assess the therapeutic efficacy and safety of venetoclax in combination with azacitidine (VA) and CAG (G-CSF priming, low dose cytarabine, and aclarubicin) as induction regimen in Patients with Refreactory/Relapse Acute Myeloid Leukemia(AML).
Previous studies have shown that venetoclax plus intense chemotherapy represent promising efficacy in de novo AML patients with high complete remission rates and good tolerance. Our preliminary results suggest that venetoclax in combination with azacitidine and CAG are well tolerated and effective for patients who were diagnosed with refreactory/relapse AML. Thus, this phase II clinical trial is going to further explore its efficacy and safety. It is expected that about 42 patients will take part in this trial.
