Shorter treatment for tough leukemia shows promise in pilot study
NCT ID NCT05833438
First seen May 03, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new way of giving two drugs (venetoclax and azacitidine) to adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are too old or sick for standard chemotherapy. Instead of the usual 7 days of azacitidine, this approach uses only 5 days per cycle to reduce side effects like infections and hospital stays. The goal is to see if this shorter schedule still helps control the leukemia while being easier for patients to tolerate.
