Read the transcript

This trial is for adults aged 18–59 with newly diagnosed, untreated, adverse-risk acute myeloid leukemia assigned through myeloMATCH. FLT3 mutations, t(9;22), and acute promyelocytic leukemia are excluded.

The idea: compare cytarabine/daunorubicin, standard or liposomal, with or without venetoclax, and azacitidine plus venetoclax. These are five separate regimens. Venetoclax blocks BCL-2, a protein that supports leukemia-cell survival. Researchers compare remission without measurable residual disease.

This phase 2 study plans 335 patients. Paul Shami leads through SWOG; 203 US locations list recruitment.
