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.
