Study on Gilteritinib, Venetoclax, and Azacitidine for Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Sponsor: Astellas Pharma Global Development, Inc.

Sponsor score: 60

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05520567

This clinical trial is exploring a new combination of drugs—Gilteritinib, Venetoclax, and Azacitidine—for treating people newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have a specific gene change and cannot undergo chemotherapy.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is testing a new treatment for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have a specific change in the FLT3 gene, which makes the cancer grow faster. The treatment combines three drugs: Gilteritinib, Venetoclax, and Azacitidine. It's for patients who can't have chemotherapy due to age or other health conditions. The study aims to find the right doses of these drugs, understand how they work together in the body, and check for any side effects. Participants will visit the clinic often for tests and monitoring. The study has two phases: Phase 1 will find the best dose of Venetoclax, and Phase 2 will test the treatment on more people. Participants can have up to 12 cycles of treatment, and those who respond well may continue with additional cycles. There will be follow-up visits to monitor health and treatment progress.
