NCT ID NCT05215639

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

Summary

This study looked at how well the drug Venetoclax works for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not healthy enough for intensive chemotherapy. About 120 patients in Switzerland and Austria took Venetoclax pills daily as part of their normal care. Researchers tracked survival and remission rates over 24 months to see how effective the treatment is in real-world settings.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Venetoclax (a targeted cancer drug taken as a pill)

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could confirm that Venetoclax is a good treatment option for AML patients who cannot tolerate intensive chemotherapy.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less reliable. It only included patients in Switzerland and Austria, so findings may not apply to other populations.
