About this study

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 acute myeloid leukemia.

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 1 course of treatment

    Time frame: 1 months after the start of study treatment

    Defined as the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of complete response (CR) or CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi).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.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Complete Remission (CR) Rate after 1 course of treatment

    Time frame: 2 months after study treatment

    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.

  2. Complete Remission (CR) Rate after 2 courses of treatment

    Time frame: after two 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.

  3. Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 2 course of treatment

    Time frame: after two courses of chemotherapy (each course is 28 days)

    Defined as the percentage of participants achieving a best overall response of complete response (CR) or CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi).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.

  4. Rate of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)-Negative Response

    Time frame: after two 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.

  5. Event-free survival

    Time frame: 180 days after study treatment

    Defined as the time interval from treatment initiation to the occurrence of induction failure,relapse,or death,whichever came first.

  6. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time frame: 180 days after study treatment

    Defined as the time from joining the clinical study to death due to any cause.

  7. Treatment-related adverse events

    Time frame: From the first dose of study treatment to 30 days after the discontinuation of treatment

    Defined as adverse events that occurred from the first dose of study treatment to 30 days after the discontinuation of treatment.

  8. Early death

    Time frame: Within 30 days of the start of the first course of treatment

    Defined as death within 30 days of chemotherapy.

  9. Disease-free survival

    Time frame: 180 days after study treatment

    Defined as the time interval from disease remission to the occurrence of relapse or death,whichever came first.
