Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Venetoclax plus azacitidine are effective in treating newly diagnosed AML in patients who cannot recieve intensive chemotherapy. However there is no clinical data rewarding the efficacy and safety of low-dose venetoclax and azacitidine as first-line therapy.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Venetoclax 100 MG
  • Drug: Itraconazole capsule
  • Drug: Azacitidine Injection
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Venetoclax plus azacitidine are effective in treating newly diagnosed AML in patients who cannot recieve intensive chemotherapy. However there is no clinical data rewarding the efficacy and safety of low-dose venetoclax and azacitidine as first-line therapy. This phase 2 clinical trial will explore the efficacy and safety of low-dose venetoclax (100mg /day/21 days) and a fixed dose of azacitidine (75mg/m2, maximun dose 100mg, SC for seven consecutive days) for a maximun of two cycles.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Low-dose Ventoclax and oral itraconazol plus subcutaneous Azacitdine

Patients will recieve Low-dose Venetoclax at a dose of 100mg/day por 21 days, oral itraconazol 100mg every 12 hours, and subcutaneous Azacitidine 75mg/m2 (maximun dose 100mg) daily for seven days. Each cycle duration is 21 days and patients will recieve a maximun of two cycles.

Drug: Venetoclax 100 MG
Patients will receive oral Venetoclax at a fixed dose of 100mg/day from day 1 to day 21 per cycle for a maximum of 2 cycles.
Other Names:
  • Venclexta
  • Drug: Itraconazole capsule
    Patients will receive oral itraconazole at a dose of 100 mg every 12 hours from day 1 to day 21.

    Drug: Azacitidine Injection
    Patients will receive a maximum of two cycles of daily subcutaneous Azacitidine at a dose of 75 mg/m2 (maximum 100 mg) from day 1 to day 7.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Feasibility will be address by obtaining the proportion of patients who need hospitalization [1 month]

      If therapy is feasible >50% of patients will recieve their first cycle of treatment without hospitalization

    2. Safety will be defined by the number of patients deceased before 14 days of initiating treatment [2 weeks]

      If therapy is safe then <5% of patients will die in the first 14 days of treatment

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Efficacy will be achieved if the overall response rate is similar to standard of care (7+3) [2 months]

      If the therapy is effective then overall response rates will be similar to those reported with standard of care (7+3)
