New hope for AML patients who fail standard therapy: experimental combo trial launches

NCT ID NCT07505160

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a new combination of drugs—lisafotoclax, decitabine, and homoharringtonine—in 35 adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) whose cancer did not respond to or could not tolerate the standard venetoclax/azacitidine regimen. The goal is to see if this new mix can shrink or eliminate the leukemia. Participants will receive the drugs in cycles and be followed for up to a year. The study is not yet recruiting.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

lisafotoclax (an experimental BCL-2 inhibitor) combined with decitabine and homoharringtonine

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for AML patients whose cancer no longer responds to standard venetoclax-based therapy.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 35 participants and no comparison group. The combination may cause serious side effects, and results may not apply to all AML patients.
