Detailed Description
This is a phase II/III study that seeks to treat patients ages 18-60 who have acute myeloid leukemia but have never been treated before. In order to improve the outcome of patients with primary AML, venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine was applied in the treatment of primary AML. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax in combination with homoharringtonine and cytarabine in newly diagnosed subjects with AML.Depending on the level of recovery, patients will either be forced to come off study or have the option to continue the medication, receive maintenance therapy, or pursue an allogeneic stem cell transplant. After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up every 3 to 6 months for up to 2 years.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Venetoclax Combined With Homoharringtonine and Cytarabine All recipients in this arm received Venetoclax, Homoharringtonine and Cytarabine. Venetoclax was uesd as 100 mg on day 1, 200 mg on day 2, 400mg from day-3 to day-28. Homoharringtonine was uesd as 1 mg/m2 qd from day-1 to day-5. Cytarabine was uesd as 100 mg/m2 qd from day-1 to day-5. |
Drug: Venetoclax
Starting on day 1, venetoclax will be dose escalated to a target dose of 600 mg in the following manner: 100 mg on day 1, 200 mg on day 2 and 400 mg on day 3. The patient then continues to take the 400mg dose for the remainder of the 28 day cycle. Each dose of venetoclax will be self-administered with approximately 240 mL of water within 30 minutes after the completion of a meal, preferably breakfast. The dose should be administered at the same time each day.
Other Names:
Drug: Homoharringtonine
On day 1, homoharringtonine 1 mg/m2 IV will be given, and will continue for 5 days.
Other Names:
Drug: Cytarabine
On day 1, cytarabine 100 mg/m2 IV will be given, and will continue for 5 days.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall response rate (ORR) [28 days after study treatment]
Defined as complete response (CR) + CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) + morphologic leukemia-free state (MLFS) + partial response (PR).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Rate of Participants With Adverse Events [Through 28 days post study medication administration]
Percentage of Participants with 3 or 4 grade Adverse Events reported through 28 days post study medication administration.
- Event-free survival [Through study completion, up to 3 years]
Defined as the number of days from the date of treatment initiation (i.e., course 1 day 1) to the date of documented treatment failure, relapses from CR, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Will be calculated for all patients. Estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Log-rank tests will be used to compare among subgroups of patients.
- Overall survival [Through study completion, up to 3 years]
Estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Log-rank tests will be used to compare among subgroups of patients.
