This trial is for adults with newly diagnosed, de novo acute myeloid leukemia.

The idea: use blood-DNA 5hmC patterns to assess residual leukemia and guide later treatment. Patients receive azacitidine or decitabine, which alter DNA methylation, with or without venetoclax, or intensive cytarabine plus an anthracycline. After four weeks, positive tests may lead to continued or changed treatment; negative tests lead to consolidation, possibly transplantation. Researchers compare residual disease, remission duration and survival.

This phase 2 study plans 112 patients. Shilpan Shah leads Houston Methodist’s recruiting Houston site.
