NCT ID NCT07486726

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a combination of three drugs—aclarubicin, azacitidine, and venetoclax—in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are either newly diagnosed and unable to tolerate standard chemotherapy, or whose cancer has returned or not responded to treatment. The trial has two phases: first, to find the safest dose of aclarubicin, and second, to see how well the combo works at achieving remission. Up to 112 adults will take part across multiple centers.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

aclarubicin (a chemotherapy drug) combined with azacitidine and venetoclax

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for AML patients who cannot tolerate standard intensive chemotherapy, potentially improving remission rates.

What could go wrong

This is an early phase 1/2 trial with only 112 participants, so results are preliminary. The combination may cause side effects or fail to work better than existing treatments.
