Promising combo for relapsed AML stalls as trial ends early
NCT ID NCT05799079
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial tested a combination of three oral drugs—decitabine, cedazuridine, and venetoclax—in adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) came back after a donor stem cell transplant. The goal was to see if the drugs could kill cancer cells and achieve a complete remission. However, the study was terminated early after enrolling only one person, so no meaningful conclusions can be drawn.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- decitabine, cedazuridine, and venetoclax
- What this could lead to
- If it worked, this combination could offer a new treatment option for AML that returns after a stem cell transplant.
- What could go wrong
- The trial was terminated early with only 1 participant, so we have very little data. It is unclear if the combination is safe or effective.
