Brief summary

This study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled phase III clinical trial aimed at comparing the efficacy of two induction chemotherapy regimens-VA (Venetoclax + Azacitidine) and D/IA (Daunorubicin/Idarubicin + Cytarabine)-in elderly patients (aged 55-75) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are fit for intensive chemotherapy.

Interventions

DRUGDaunorubicin/Idarubicin

Daunorubicin/Idarubicin is used in Induction Therapy and Maintenance Therapy.

DRUGCytarabine

Cytarabine is used in Induction Therapy, Consolidation Therapy and Maintenance Therapy.

DRUGAzacitidine

Azacitidine is used in VA regimen

DRUGVenetoclax

Venetoclax is used in VA regimen

Inclusion criteria

* Diagnosis of AML according to WHO (2022) or ICC criteria. * Age ≥55 and ≤75 years. * ECOG performance status score of 0-2. * Adequate organ function: * Total bilirubin ≤1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN) * AST and ALT ≤2.5× ULN * Serum creatinine \<2× ULN * Cardiac enzymes \<2× ULN * Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, by echocardiogram) within normal range Signed informed consent by the patient or legal representative.

Exclusion criteria

* Acute promyelocytic leukemia with PML-RARA fusion gene. * AML with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 or CBFB-MYH11 fusion genes. * AML with BCR-ABL fusion gene. * Relapsed or refractory AML (previously treated with induction chemotherapy, but hydroxyurea is allowed). * Concurrent other malignancies requiring treatment. * Active cardiac disease (e.g., uncontrolled angina, recent myocardial infarction, severe arrhythmias, uncontrolled heart failure, LVEF below normal). * Severe infectious diseases (e.g., untreated tuberculosis, pulmonary aspergillosis). * Other conditions deemed unsuitable by the investigator.
