Brief summary

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)

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.

Interventions

Enrolled patients will receive: Venetoclax: 100 mg on Day 1, 200 mg on Day 2, and 400 mg on Days 3-14. Azacitidine: 75 mg/m² on Days 1-7. Cycle duration: 28 days Total cycles: 1 to 2 cycles

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
2-Year Relapse-Free Survival(2-RFS)From date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.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

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Survival (OS)From date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 48 months.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.
Cumulative Relapse Rate (CIR)rom date of index treatment to death, disease progression, or end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months.Defined as the proportion of patients who experience disease relapse from the time of enrollment in this study.
Composite Complete Response Rate(mCRc)Through study completion, an average of 1 yearComplete Remission (CR) or CR-equivalent+ CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRL) + CR with limited hematologic recovery (CRh)
