Brief summary

This study was a prospective, two-arm, multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tretinoin capsules combined with azacitidine and venetoclax in the treatment of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Azacitidine, venetoclax, and tretinoin may arrest cancer cell growth by demethylation, promoting cell differentiation, or killing cells, while reducing blood-related adverse effects by promoting cell differentiation.

Detailed description

This is a multi-center, non-controlled, open-label, Phase 3 interventional study.Young (≥18 and ≤60 years old) patients with newly diagnosed non M3, acute myeloid leukemia will receive a combination of AZA+Venetoclax+ATRA(AVA regimen) or daunorubicin +cytarabine(DA regimen) as induction treatment for 2 cycles. According to standard procedures, patients will receive one of the following consolidation regimens separately, including the AVA regimen, or medium-dose cytarabine alone or in combination with anthracyclines regimen for 2cycle. After consolidation therapy, maintenance treatment could be given once a month for 4 times, then once every 3 months until progression. After the second induction therapy, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was recommended for patients with suitable donors. The primary endpoint is ORR after second induction therapy.Outcome measures included complete remission (CR)/complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) .

Interventions

DRUGATRA+Venetoclax+Azacitidine

Participants will receive a standard dose of azacitidine (75mg/m²/day),venetoclax (target dose, 400 mg),ATRA 45mg/m²/day

DRUGChemotherapy drug

Participants will receive commercially available cytarabine (cytosine arabinoside) and anthracycline (daunorubicin).
