Condition(s) studied

Intensive Chemotherapy UnfitNewly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)Age ≥60

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Alternately treated with VA/low CHA regimen

Alternately treated with VA/low CHA regimen: 1. Induction Phase (4 alternating cycles): Participants will receive 4 cycles of alternating therapy: * VA Cycle: * Venetoclax 400 mg PO daily on Days 1-28 * Azacitidine 75 mg/m² SC daily on Days 1-7 * Low-dose CHA Cycle: * Cladribine 5 mg/m² IV daily on Days 1-3 * Homoharringtonine 1 mg/m² IV daily on Days 1-5 * Cytarabine 20 mg SC every 12 hours on Days 1-10 Alternating sequence: VA → CHA → VA → CHA → VA → CHA → VA → CHA 2. Maintenance Phase (24 months): Following induction, participants will receive: * Venetoclax 400 mg PO daily on Days 1-28 * Azacitidine 75 mg/m² SC daily on Days 1-7 Repeated every 28 days for 24 cycles. We aimed to compare this clinical intervention with standard VA which is: * Venetoclax 400 mg PO daily on Days 1-28 * Azacitidine 75 mg/m² SC daily on Days 1-7 Repeated every 28 days for at least 24 cycles.

Study summary

This phase II trial tests how well VA alternating with low-dose CHA works in treating unfit patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This is a prospective, multi-centers, single arm phase II study aimed to overcome VEN resistance and achieve greater MRD negative rate, providing better control of treatment for unfit AML.

Exclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of: AML arising from chronic myeloid leukemia (CML); myeloid sarcoma; acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) or presence of FLT3-ITD mutations; * Active malignancies (except adequately treated carcinoma in situ or basal cell carcinoma) within 2 years prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1); * Major surgery or systemic anticancer therapy within 28 days before C1D1; * Known hypersensitivity to: Active pharmaceutical ingredients: cladribine, homoharringtonine, cytarabine, venetoclax, azacitidine; Any excipients in study drug formulations; * GI conditions impairing oral drug absorption: Dysphagia; short-gut syndrome; gastroparesis or related disorders; * Uncontrolled active infection; * Controlled infection permitted if: Afebrile (\<38°C) and hemodynamically stable (SBP \>90 mmHg, HR \<100 bpm) for ≥72 hours pre-C1D1; on non-interacting antimicrobial regimen; active HBV/HCV infection (Chronic carriers require PI approval with viral load monitoring); HIV-positive patients receiving HAART; * Pregnancy/lactation or refusal of contraception: Negative serum β-hCG within 24h pre-C1D1; * Psychiatric disorders or social circumstances compromising protocol compliance; * Prior AML-directed therapy except: cytoreduction for hyperleukocytosis per institutional guidelines (hydroxyurea, leukapheresis); supportive growth factors;
