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 newly diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).~The combination of venetoclax and azacitidine is the standard therapy for elderly (> 60 year old) patients with newly diagnosed AML who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy. 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. The preliminary results suggest that venetoclax in combination with azacitidine and CAG are well tolerated and effective for newly diagnosed young patients with AML. Thus, this phase II clinical trial is going to further explore its efficacy and safety. It is expected that about 62 patients will take part in this trial.
This study aims to assess the therapeutic efficacy and safety of venetoclax in combination with azacitidine and CAG(VA-CAG) as induction regimen in newly diagnosed young patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).
