About this study

The pediatric-inspired regimen has greatly improved the prognosis of adult patients with with Philadelphia chromosome-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph- ALL), but relapse remains a great challenge. Venetoclax (Ven) is an oral, selective inhibitor of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2). Although this drug is currently used primarily for acute myeloid leukemia, in vitro as well as small cohort studies suggest a effect in acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This study proposes to combine pediatric-inspired regimen with venetoclax for the treatment of adult patients with Ph- ALL, aiming to improve the MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by flow cytometry after induction and to reduce relapse, thus further improving patients overall survival.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Pediatric-inspired Regimen Combined With VenetoclaxExperimentalInduction therapy is administered as follows:Vincristine (VCR) 1.4 mg/m2 (maximum dose 2 mg) IV on D1,8,1,5,22; Daunorubicin (DNR) 30 mg/m2/day IV on D1-3; Cyclophosphamide (CTX) 1200 mg/m2 IV on D1,15; Pegaspargase 2500u/m2 IM on D5; Prednisone 1 mg/kg/d PO on D1-14, 0.5 mg/kg/d PO on D15-28; Venetoclax 100 mg PO on D6,200 mg on D7, 400mg on D8-14, All patients underwent bone marrow aspiration on day 14 during induction. Patients with bone marrow blasts ≥10% on day 14 of induction received 7 additional days of Venetoclax on day 15-22. Consolidation therapy is a combination of multi-drug pediatric-inspired regimen chemotherapy and Venetoclax. Maintenance therapy consisted of a monthly VMMP regimen (vincristine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, prednisone) continuing until 3 years for male and 2.5 years for female patients.
Receives: Drug: Vincristine; Drug: Daunorubicin; Drug: Cyclophosphamide; Drug: Pegaspargase; Drug: Prednisone; Drug: Cytarabine; Drug: 6-mercaptopurine; Drug: Dexamethasone; Drug: Methotrexate; Drug: Venetoclax

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by flow cytometry

    Measured: After induction (4 week)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Complete remission (CR) rate

    Measured: After 2 cycles of chemotherapy, an expected average of 3 months

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    From the date of registration to the date of death resulting from any cause

    Measured: Up to 5 years post-registration

  3. Relapse free survival (RFS)

    From the date of complete remission(CR) until the date of documented relapse or death due to any cause or the last follow-up day

    Measured: Up to 5 years post-registration

  4. Disease-free Survival (DFS)

    From CR1 to relapse, death from any cause or last follow-up

    Measured: Up to 5 years post-registration

  5. The rate of adverse events

    Measured: An expected average of 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vincristine, Daunorubicin and Cyclophosphamide in people with Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma, run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jianxiang Wang, Dr (86-22-23909120, wangjx@ihcams.ac.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by flow cytometry (time frame: After induction (4 week)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05660473, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2025.
