Can a Triple-Drug combo outsmart resistant leukemia?
NCT ID NCT07755202
First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether adding gilteritinib to the standard drugs azacitidine and venetoclax can help adults with a type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has returned or stopped responding to prior treatment. Participants receive the three-drug combination in repeated 28-day cycles for at least two cycles, with daily gilteritinib and azacitidine plus venetoclax on days 1-7. The study aims to see if this approach improves remission rates and to assess its safety.
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 gilteritinib, azacitidine, and venetoclax
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this combination could offer a new treatment option for AML patients whose cancer has stopped responding to standard therapy, potentially improving remission rates.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small phase 2 trial, so results may not be conclusive. The combination may cause significant side effects, and not all patients may respond.
