New drug combo aims to stop leukemia relapse after transplant
NCT ID NCT07559695
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether menin inhibitors can help prevent leukemia from coming back in patients who have had a stem cell transplant. About 20 adults with certain genetic types of acute leukemia will take these drugs as maintenance therapy. Researchers will track how many patients stay relapse-free for two years and monitor for side effects.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- menin inhibitors (e.g., Revumenib, BN104, Ziftomenib, HMPL-506)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a way to keep leukemia from coming back after a stem cell transplant, potentially improving long-term survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early real-world study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drugs may cause side effects or fail to prevent relapse.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥ 15 years. 2. Patients diagnosed with acute leukemia (including AML, ALL, and MPAL) according to the World Health Organization (WHO 2022) criteria. 3. Must meet one of the following characteristics: a. Harboring an NPM1 gene mutation (without concurrent FLT3-ITD or FLT3-TKD mutation); b. Harboring a KMT2A gene rearrangement or KMT2A-PTD; c. Harboring a NUP98 gene rearrangement; d. Other acute leukemia subtypes dependent on the menin-KMT2A interaction, if evidenced, may be enrolled upon discussion with and approval from the principal research team. 4. Has undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), with ≥ 30 days elapsed since the date of graft infusion. 5. Received menin inhibitor maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT and meets the following conditions: a. Received at least ≥ 2 complete cycles (7 days per cycle) of menin inhibitor therapy, or cumulative medication duration ≥ 14 days; b. Patient was in a state of CR/CRh/CRi at the initiation of maintenance therapy. 6. No evidence of leukemia relapse during menin inhibitor maintenance therapy, defined as: a. Bone marrow blasts \< 5%, and blasts do not exhibit morphological features of acute leukemia (e.g.Auer rods); b. No evidence of extramedullary leukemia (e.g. CNS leukemia or myeloid sarcoma). 7. The menin inhibitors used include but are not limited to: Revumenib, BN104, Ziftomenib, HMPL-506, or other menin-KMT2A interaction inhibitors. 8. Capable of understanding and voluntarily signing the informed consent form. 9. Complete clinical data. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Presence of any of the following at the initiation of menin inhibitor maintenance therapy (including within 28 days prior to starting treatment): a. Morphologic relapse in bone marrow (bone marrow blasts ≥ 5%); b. Presence of leukemic cells in peripheral blood. 2. Active infection that is deemed uncontrolled by the investigator. 3. Severe organ dysfunction, including: a. Hepatic impairment: ALT or AST ≥ 5 × ULN (Upper Limit of Normal), or total bilirubin ≥ 3 × ULN; b. Severe renal impairment: eGFR \< 30 ml/min/1.73 m²; c. Cardiac dysfunction: NYHA (New York Heart Association) Class III-IV. 4. Concurrent acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) ≥ Grade 2 or chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) ≥ Grade 3, requiring corticosteroids ≥ 1 mg/kg and ≥ 3 types of immunosuppressive therapy (including CNI, ruxolitinib, belumosudil, etc.). 5. History of other malignancies requiring ongoing treatment (except for malignancies that have undergone curative treatment or are assessed to be in complete remission and require no systemic maintenance therapy or radiotherapy). 6. Any gastrointestinal disorder that may affect the intake or absorption of oral medications (e.g.dysphagia, gastroparesis, uncontrolled chronic diarrhea, intestinal GVHD, etc). 7. Patients deemed unsuitable for inclusion in this study by the investigator. 8. Severely missing clinical data, precluding efficacy or safety assessment. 9. Receipt of other maintenance therapies, including but not limited to hypomethylating agents, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), or other specific small-molecule targeted drugs.
