Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new drug called FHD-286 combined with two standard chemotherapy drugs (decitabine and venetoclax) in 33 people with acute myeloid leukemia that is either newly diagnosed with high-risk features or has returned after one prior treatment. The main goal is to find safe doses and watch for side effects. Researchers will also track how well patients tolerate the treatment over 12 weeks.
