AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia)
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to explore a superior first-line induction remission regimen by incorporating Chidamide into the modified VAH chemotherapy combined with targeted therapy regimen, leveraging its dual epigenetic modulation mechanism.
Interventions
Induction (Chi+VAH Regimen): Cycle 1: Chi+VAH regimen (28-day cycle). Assessment \& Cycle 2: CR/CRi: Repeat one cycle → Proceed to post-remission therapy. PR: Repeat one cycle → Re-assess. If CR/CRi → Proceed to post-remission therapy. NR: Discontinue study. Post-Remission / Consolidation: 1-2 cycles of either intermediate-dose Cytarabine (± targeted therapy) OR the Chi+VAH regimen. Eligible patients should proceed to allogeneic HSCT. Maintenance (Non-transplant): MRD-negative: VA (Venetoclax + Azacitidine) until relapse, intolerance, or 1 year. MRD-positive: Chi+VAH or clinical trial until MRD negativity, then switch to VA maintenance.
