About this study
Official title: Venetoclax Combined With Intermediate-dose Cytarabine Versus Intermediate-dose Cytarabine for Consolidation Therapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): a Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized Controlled, Phase 2 Study
This study intends to use a randomized controlled design to compare the MRD-negativw rate and related efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with intermediate-dose cytarabine (IDAC) versus IDAC in the consolidation treatment of patients with AML after remission, providing high-quality evidence-based medical evidence for optimizing post-remission consolidation therapy for AML and improving patients' prognosis.
Read the detailed description
Studies have shown that venetoclax can significantly enhance the efficacy of intensive chemotherapy (IC) in the induction and salvage treatment of AML. However, there is still a lack of direct comparison of the efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with intermediate-dose cytarabine (IDAC) with IDAC for consolidation in AML. In order to evaluate the benefit of venetoclax combined with IDAC, we plan to conduct a multicenter, prospective randomized controlled, phase 2 study to compare the efficacy and safety of venetoclax (d1-7, 400mg QD) combined with cytarabine (d1-3, 1.5g/㎡, q12h) versus cytarabine only for consolidation therapy in AML, aiming to fill the current evidence gap and provide scientific basis for improving deeper remission of AML and finally improve patients' long-term survival.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing Ventoclax and Cytarabine in people with AML (Acute Myelogenous Leukemia), run by Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital 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 9 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2026. 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 combined 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.
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Rate of Measurable residual disease (MRD) negative (time frame: At the end of cycle 2 (28 days for a cycle)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Apr 2026.
