NCT ID NCT06629818

First seen Jul 28, 2026 · Last updated Jul 29, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing whether combining daratumumab, venetoclax, and dexamethasone can produce a deep and rapid response in people newly diagnosed with light-chain (AL) amyloidosis who carry a specific genetic marker called t(11;14). The study enrolls 36 participants and measures how well the treatment controls the disease at 3 months. The goal is to see if this oral-friendly regimen can become a new standard for this patient group.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a combination of daratumumab, venetoclax, and dexamethasone
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a highly effective, oral-based treatment option for a specific genetic subtype of AL amyloidosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (36 participants) without a control group, so results may not generalize. The combination carries risks of infection and bone marrow suppression.
