This trial is for adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, or untreated disease at ages eighteen to sixty-nine. Acute promyelocytic leukemia and newly diagnosed core-binding-factor leukemia are excluded.

The idea: combine CPX-351 infusions with oral venetoclax. CPX-351 packages daunorubicin and cytarabine; venetoclax blocks BCL-2, which helps cancer cells survive. Treatment allows up to two induction and four consolidation cycles. Venetoclax is taken on days two through twenty-one of each four-week cycle. Researchers assess remission and safety.

This phase 2 study plans 72 patients. Tapan Kadia leads MD Anderson's recruiting Houston site.
