About this study

Official title: Venetoclax Combining Chidamide and Azacitidine (VCA) Regimen Followed by Dicitabine Combined With Liposome Mitoxantrone, Cytarabine, and G-CSF (D-MAG) Regimen on the Treatment of Elderly Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) : A Multicenter, Prospective, Single Arm Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Venetoclax Combining Chidamide and Azacitidine (VCA) Followed by D-MAG Regimen on the Treatment of Elderly Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Read the detailed description

Elderly Patients with AML have inferior outcomes due to poor physical condition, and intolerant to conventional chemotherapy. The regimen of Venetoclax and Azacitidine has been widely used in these patients and has proved to achieve higher CR rate than low intensity therapy. However, the median duration of response (DOR) of this regimen is about one year. Chidamide is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor and preclinical data showed adding low-dose Chidamide to venetoclax could significantly promoted apoptosis of leukemia cell lines. The Venetoclax Combining Chidamide and Azacitidine (VCA) regimen was applied to one 62-year-old male patient with AML who achieved CR. Meanwhile, Liposome mitoxantrone has better safety and tolerance than mitoxantrone in elderly patients. Thus, this study is intended to use 2 cycles of VCA regimens followed by 2 cycles of D-MAG regimens, and then repeat the above four courses of treatment once to improve the median event free survival of elderly AML patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complete remission (CR) rate

    CR was <5% marrow blasts by morphology

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. 1 year leukemia free survival (LFS)

    Leukemia-free survival (LFS) is defined as survival without evidence of relapse from treatment initiation

    Measured: 1 year from treatment initiation

  2. 1 year overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival(OS)is defined as the time from treatment initiation to death from any cause.

    Measured: 1 year from treatment initiation

  3. Adverse events

    Adverse event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with treatment

    Measured: 6 months

  4. objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as CR, CRi and PR. Partial remission (PR) is defined as a decrease of at least 50% in the percentage of blasts to 5 to 25% in the bone marrow aspirate and the normalization of blood counts.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Venetoclax Combining Chidamide and Azacitidine (VCA) regimen followed by dicitabine combined with liposome mitoxantrone, cytarabine, and G-CSF (D-MAG) regimen in people with Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute and AML Stage, Adult, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Bing Xu, M.D. (+865922137255, xubingzhangjian@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete remission (CR) rate (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Feb 2025.
