Trial summary

To better delineate the contribution of VEN-DEC to the treatment of AML patients aged between ≥ 60 and < 75 years and deemed fit for Allo-HSCT, real-world data on a patient-level basis will be collected and utilized to generate a matched control cohort of same AML patients treated with intensive chemotherapy.

About this study

Official title: Designing a Generative AI Model and Propensity Score Matching Methodology for Validation of "The Phase II Study on Venetoclax (VEN) Plus Decitabine (DEC) (VEN-DEC) in Elderly (e60 <75years) Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Eligible for Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation (Allo-SCT)". Evaluation of an Exploratory Approach Respect to a Randomized Phase III Trial

To better delineate the contribution of VEN-DEC to the treatment of AML patients aged between ≥ 60 and < 75 years and deemed fit for Allo-HSCT, real-world data on a patient-level basis will be collected and utilized to generate a matched control cohort of same AML patients treated with intensive chemotherapy.

In addittion, to further validate the efficacy of the VEN-DEC treatment approach in elderly AML patients, an advanced generative AI model will be constructed and trained using the historical cohort data. The AI model aims to simulate outcomes based on the standard

What is being measured

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

  1. Propensity Score Matching (PSM) objective

    Design of a model based on Generative Artificial Intelligence and the Propensity Score Matching methodology for the validation of the "Phase II Study on Venetoclax (VEN) plus Decitabine (DEC) (VEN-DEC) in elderly patients (≥60, <75 years) with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT)". Evaluation of an exploratory approach as an alternative to a randomized phase III study.

    Propensity Score Matching objective The PSM method can be used to reduce the effects of confounding when using observational data to estimate treatment effects. The objective of this analysis is to validate the VEN-DEC treatment Program as more effective than the conventional chemotherapy treatment for inducing CR in intermediate/high risk AML patients older than 60 years and offering them a higher probability to be transplanted and cured.

    Measured: 8-12 months

  2. Artificial Intelligence objectives

    Design of a model based on Generative Artificial Intelligence and the Propensity Score Matching methodology for the validation of the "Phase II Study on Venetoclax (VEN) plus Decitabine (DEC) (VEN-DEC) in elderly patients (≥60, <75 years) with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) eligible for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT)". Evaluation of an exploratory approach as an alternative to a randomized phase III study.

    AI Objectives By AI generative methodology, the objective is confirming the superiority of VENDEC in AML patients older than 60 years and acquiring information useful to guide the use of VEN-DEC or similar treatments in AML patients with clinical features similar to those of the VEN-DEC phase II study patients' population but younger than 60 years.

    Measured: 8-12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Azienda Socio Sanitaria Territoriale degli Spedali Civili di Brescia at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 30 Apr 2026. 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 Italy. 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.

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 Domenico Russo, MD (00390303996811, domenico.russo@unibs.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Propensity Score Matching (PSM) objective (time frame: 8-12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Apr 2026.
