New transplant prep aims to boost survival in leukemia patients
NCT ID NCT07214064
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether adding venetoclax to standard chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant can improve survival for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The study will enroll 27 adults aged 18 to 75. The main goal is to see if the new combination is safe and feasible, measuring survival at 28 days after transplant.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Venetoclax (Venclyxto®) combined with fludarabine and treosulfan
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a safer, more effective transplant preparation for older or frail patients with AML or MDS, potentially improving survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase trial with only 27 participants. The added drug may increase side effects without clear benefit, and results may not apply to all patients.
