A Single-Arm, Prospective Clinical Study of Venetoclax Combined with Azacitidine Followed by Bridging Transplantation in Patients with High-Risk Myelodysplastic Neoplasms with Increased Blasts 2 (MDS-IB2)
Read the detailed description
This is a single-center, single-arm, prospective study investigating pre-transplant bridging therapy in patients aged ≥18 years with higher-risk MDS-IB2. The study plans to enroll 46 eligible patients. Participants will receive Venetoclax combined with Azacitidine, administered in 28-day cycles for 1 to 2 cycles. Treatment response will be assessed according to the IWG 2023 HR-MDS response criteria.Patients achieving modified Composite Complete Remission (mCRc: CR or CR-equivalent + CRL + CRh) after Cycle 1 will proceed directly to transplantation. Patients not achieving mCRc will receive a second cycle of therapy. All patients will undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) within 3 months after completing Cycle 2, regardless of mCRc status. Patients unable to proceed to transplantation will receive standard institutional care and undergo follow-up.
- Conditions
- Myelodysplastic Neoplasms, Transplantation

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
2-Year Relapse-Free Survival(2-RFS)
Defined as the time from enrollment in this study to the occurrence of relapse. For patients without relapse, the time is calculated until death from any cause or the time of the last follow-up
Measured: From date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.
Secondary outcomes (3)
Overall Survival (OS)
Defined as the time from enrollment in this study to death from any cause. If the exact date of death is unknown, the time of death is defined as the last contact date. If the patient is still alive, the last observed time will be used, and the patient's OS will be considered for analysis.
Measured: From date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 48 months.
Cumulative Relapse Rate (CIR)
Defined as the proportion of patients who experience disease relapse from the time of enrollment in this study.
Measured: rom date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.
Composite Complete Response Rate(mCRc)
Complete Remission (CR) or CR-equivalent+ CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRL) + CR with limited hematologic recovery (CRh)
Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing VEN (Venetoclax) in people with Myelodysplastic Neoplasms and Transplantation, run by Yehui Tan 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 12 inclusion and 10 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 8 Aug 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 Yehui Tan (8615948027438, yhtan@jlu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
2-Year Relapse-Free Survival(2-RFS) (time frame: From date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 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 8 Aug 2025.
