Comparison of VA (Venetoclax, Azacitidine), VACl (VA, Cladribine), VACh (VA, Chidamide), and Alternating VACl/VACh in Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia

• Status: RECRUITING
• Trial end date: 2028-08-01

Summary

This prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled Phase II study is to compare the therapeutic efficacy and side effect of VACl (Venetoclax,Azacitidine,Cladribine) alternating with VACh (Venetoclax,Azacitidine,Chidamide), VACl, VACh and VA in newly diagnosed adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients ineligible for intensive therapy or declining. Cladribine is a purine analogue widely used in hematologic malignancies. The monocytic leukemia stem cell is selective sensitivity to Cladribine. Chidamide, a newly designed selective histone deacetylase inhibitor, could down regulate myeloid cell leukaemia 1 (MCL1) expression in Venetoclax resistant AML cells. Chidamide or Cladribine have synergistic anti-leukemia effects with VA through their unique mechanisms, which can eradicate leukemia stem cells and prevent the occurrence of drug resistance.
