Acute Myeloid Leukemia, First Line Therapy

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with the CACAG regimen with the traditional "3+7" regimen in the treatment of newly diagnosed intermediate- or high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Detailed description

Despite the availability of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and the emergence of many new therapeutic drugs, the prognosis of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia is still poor.Over the past years, combination chemotherapy with anthracycline and standard dose cytarabine (standard "3+7" induction therapy) remains the standard induction. In order to improve the outcome of patients with de novo AML, we developed a venetoclax combined with CACAG regimen in the treatment of de novo AML. In this study, we intent to compare the efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with CACAG regimen with the traditional "3+7" regimen in the treatment of newly diagnosed intermediate- or high-risk acute myeloid leukemia.

Interventions

Azacytidine (75 mg/m2/day, days 1 to 7). Cytarabine (75-100 mg/m2 bid, days 1 to 5). Aclacinomycin(20 mg/day, days 1,3,5). Chidamide (30 mg/day , days 1,4,8,11). Venetoclax (400 mg/day, days 1 to 14,Combined with posaconazole reduced to 100 mg/day,Combined with voriconazole reduced to 200 mg/day ). Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (300 μg/day, day 0 until agranulocytosis recovery)

DRUG"3+7"

IA regimen: Idarubicin (8-10 mg/m2) for 3 days . Cytarabine (75-100mg/m2, every 12 hrs) for 7 days. DA regimen: Daunorubicin(60 mg/m2) for 3 days. Cytarabine (75-100mg/m2, every 12 hrs) for 7 days.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Composite Complete Remission (CRc) Rate after 1 course of treatment1 months after study treatmenta combination of complete remission (CR) and complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 1 course of treatment1 months after the start of study treatmentDefined as the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of complete response (CR), CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi), or partial response (PR).Biological characteristics exploratory studies were analyzed by single-cell sequencing and Atac-seq. Further, according to European LeukemiaNet risk group, we analyzed the outcomes of patients by molecular subtype as a sub-group analysis.
Complete Remission (CR) Rate after 1 courses of treatmentafter 1 courses of chemotherapy (each course is 28 days)Defined in accordance with the IWG Response Criteria in AML. Bone marrow blasts\<5 percent; absence of blasts with Auer rods; absence of extramedullary disease; absolute neutrophil count \>1.0 x 109/L (1000/µL); platelet count \>100 x 109/L (100,000/µL); independence of red cell transfusions.
Rate of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)-Negative Responseafter each courses of chemotherapy (each course is 28 days)Percentage of participants who achieved MRD-negative response, defined as \< 1 leukemia cell per 10,000 leukocytes as assessed by flow cytometry.
Event-free survival180 days after study treatmentDefined as the time interval from treatment initiation to the occurrence of induction failure,relapse,or death,whichever came first.
Overall Survival180 days after study treatmentDefined as the time from joining the clinical study to death due to any cause.
Treatment-related adverse eventsFrom the first dose of study treatment to 30 days after the discontinuation of treatmentDefined as adverse events that occurred from the first dose of study treatment to 30 days after the discontinuation of treatment.
Disease-free survival180 days after study treatmentDefined as the time interval from disease remission to the occurrence of relapse or death,whichever came first.
Early deathWithin 30 days of the start of the first course of treatmentDefined as death within 30 days of chemotherapy.
Complete Remission with Incomplete Blood Count Recovery (CRi)after 1 courses of treatmentafter 1 courses of chemotherapy (each course is 28 days)Disappearance of leukemia blasts in the bone marrow (\<5% blasts) but without full recovery of blood counts (neutrophils \<1.0 x 10⁹/L and/or platelets \<100 x 10⁹/L).
