Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- A patient will be eligible for study participation if he/she meets the following criteria within 30 days prior to the first day of therapy (bone marrow biopsy can be performed 30 days prior to the first day of therapy). Historical records are permitted per investigator discretion.\n- Patients must voluntarily sign and date an informed consent, approved by an Institutional Review Board (IRB), prior to the initiation of any research directed screening procedures.\n- Patients must have confirmation of with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with persistent measurable residual disease (MRD) or MRD reappearance after frontline intensive chemotherapy (including at least one cycle of cytarabine and anthracycline), and prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). a. In patients with NPM1 mutation, qRT-PCR of NPM1 will be the method used to establish a molecular failure, defined as failure to achieve molecular response after consolidation therapy (NPM1mut/ABL1·100 > 0.01) or MRD reappearance after molecular response. All cases of molecular failure must be confirmed with a second MRD assessment in 2 to 4 weeks. b. In patients with core-binding factor AML, qRT-BCR of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and CBFb-MYH11 transcripts will be used. Patients failing to achieve a major MRD reduction after consolidation therapy (i.e., RUNX1-RUNX1T1/ABL1·100>0.1 or CBFb-MYH11/ABL1·100>0.1), a log increase in MRD between two positive samples or confirmed MRD CETLAM-LMA-AC-2024-01- Protocol Version - 1.0 17JUL2023 Page 14/103 VERDI reappearance after molecular response will be considered as molecular failures and could be included in the trial. c. In the remaining cases, an appropriate leukemia-associated immunophenotype (LAIP) measured by multiparameter flow cytometry will be used for MRD surveillance. A cutoff of 0.1% will be used to define MRD positivity.\n- Age ≥18 years.\n- Without clinical signs of active central nervous system disease.\n- Patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance status of ≤2 or Karnosky performance status (KPS) equivalent (Appendix\n- Patients must have adequate renal function as demonstrated by a calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min; determined via urine collection for 24-hour creatinine clearance or by the Cockcroft Gault formula.\n- Patients must have adequate liver function as demonstrated by: a. aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3.0 × upper limit normal (ULN) b. alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3.0 × ULN c. bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, unless due to Gilbert's syndrome\n- Non-sterile male patients must use contraceptive methods with partner(s) prior to beginning study drug administration and continuing up to 3 months after the last dose of study drug.

Endpoints

Primary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Rate of MRD conversion after 2 to 4 courses of Ven/Aza treatment.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"MRD conversion assessed after 2–4 courses of venetoclax+azacitidine. MRD methods described in inclusion criteria: qRT‑PCR for NPM1 (molecular failure defined, e.g., NPM1mut/ABL1·100 > 0.01 with confirmation 2–4 weeks later), qRT‑BCR for RUNX1‑RUNX1T1 and CBFb‑MYH11, or multiparameter flow cytometry using an appropriate LAIP with a 0.1% cutoff for MRD positivity."}
