Can a triple-drug combination tame AML without intensive chemo?

NCT ID NCT07722767

First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether adding an experimental drug called CLN 049 to two standard AML drugs (azacitidine and venetoclax) is safe and tolerable for adults newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia who are not candidates for intensive chemotherapy. The study will first find the best dose of CLN 049 and then expand to see how well the combination works. About 90 participants 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
an experimental drug called CLN 049 combined with azacitidine and venetoclax
What this could lead to
If it works, this combination could offer a new, less intensive treatment option for people with AML who cannot tolerate standard chemotherapy.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 1b trial, so the main goals are safety and finding the right dose. It is too soon to know if the combination will be effective, and there may be unknown side effects.
