AZA + Venetoclax as Maintenance Therapy in Younger Adults With AML in First Remission
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This phase III trial is conducted to evaluate if azacitidine in combination with venetoclax as maintenance therapy improves relapse-free survival (RFS) for younger adults with favorable-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who remained in first complete remission (CR1) following intensive consolidation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Relapse-free survival (RFS) [From date of complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete count recovery (CRi), to relapse or death from any cause, up to approximately 3 years]
RFS is defined as the number of days from CR/CRi to the date of relapse or the date of death from any cause, whichever comes first.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of Participants Who Achieve Minimal Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negative Conversion [Measured From Baseline to approximately 3 years]
The MRD conversion rate is defined as the percentage of participants deemed MRD positive (≥ 10^-3) at study initiation who converted to MRD of < 10^-3 in the bone marrow after randomization or initiation of treatment.
- Complete remission duration (CRd) [From date of CR/CRi to approximately 3 years]
CRd is defined as time from CR/CRi until date of confirmed relapse
- Overall Survival (OS) [Time from treatment to death from any cause, up to approximately 3 years]
OS is defined as the number of days from the date of study treatment to the date of death.
- Event free survival (EFS) [Time from treatment to relapse，withdrawal from study due to adverse event and death from any cause, up to approximately 3 years]
EFS is defined as time from the start of study treatment until date of first confirmed relapse, withdrawal from study due to adverse event, or death due to any cause,
- Incidence of adverse events [Time from treatment to approximately 3 years]
The NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTCAE 5.0) is used to grade adverse events.
