Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This pilot study looked at 20 adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who were not healthy enough for strong chemotherapy. They received a standard combination of azacitidine and venetoclax. Researchers measured venetoclax levels in the blood at several time points to see if those levels relate to how well the drug works and how toxic it is. The goal is to gather information that could lead to personalized dosing in the future.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
venetoclax and azacitidine
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors personalize venetoclax dosing for AML patients, potentially improving treatment effectiveness and reducing side effects.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It is designed to gather information, not to prove a new treatment works.
