Azacitidine in Combination With Low Dose Intensity Venetoclax in Patients With AML Incl. Explorative AML Profiling

Is NCT05431257 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies Venetoclax for acute myeloid leukemia.

Phase 2RecruitingRigshospitalet, DenmarkNCT05431257Data as of May 2026

Treatment: VenetoclaxMulti-center phase II study of standard azacytidine treatment (AZA; D1-D7, 75mg/m2 qd) in combination with a short duration of "low-dose" venetoclax treatment (LD-VEN; D1-D14 before CR and D1-D7 after CR, 400mg qd) per 28 days cycle for elderly/unfit (arm 1) and relapsed/refractory (arm 2) patients with acute myeloid leukemia. AZA and LD-VEN treatment is combined with exploratory AML profiling using established platforms for OMICs analyses and ex vivo drug sensitivity and resistance testing. This will validate the feasibility of AML profiling in a clinical setting to predict responders and non-responders to AZA/LD-VEN therapy. The exploratory AML profiling program will also identify biomarkers as well as novel drugs and drug combinations applicable for treatment of AML patients in future clinical trial initiatives.
