Summary

This early-stage trial is testing two oral drugs, CC-486 and venetoclax, together in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has relapsed or not responded to prior treatment. The main goal is to find the safest dose of CC-486 when combined with venetoclax, and to monitor side effects. Up to 35 participants will take part in this open-label study at a single center.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

CC-486 (oral azacitidine) and venetoclax

What this could lead to

If this works, it could offer a new treatment option for people with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or not responded to other therapies.

What could go wrong

This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 35 participants, so it is mainly checking safety and dosing. It may not lead to an effective treatment, and side effects are still being studied.
