Can targeted drug cocktails erase hidden leukemia cells?
NCT ID NCT07131059
First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing whether combining various chemotherapy and targeted drugs can clear measurable residual disease (MRD) in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are in remission but still have traces of leukemia cells. The study enrolls patients aged 14 and older with MRD-positive AML and evaluates different drug combinations to find the most effective and safe approach. The goal is to improve relapse-free survival by eliminating these hidden cancer cells.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- A combination of chemotherapy and targeted drugs, including ivosidenib, gilteritinib, venetoclax, avapritinib, daunorubicin, cytarabine, idarubicin, mitoxantrone, homoharringtonine, azacitidine, ruxolitinib, and trametinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to more effective treatment strategies to eliminate residual leukemia cells and improve long-term remission and survival in AML patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage platform trial, and the optimal drug combinations are still being explored. There is a risk of side effects, and not all patients may respond to the treatments.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * AML (non-M3) compliant with WHO (2016) standards; * In morphological complete remission. * Mrd-positive patients: including bone marrow flow cytometry, PCR quantification of NPM1 mutations, PCR quantification of fusion genes (RUNX 1-RUNX1T1, CBFB-MYH11 and DEK-NUP214), or NGS detection of FLT3 mutation positive. * Age over 14 years old, male or female. Informed consent must be signed prior to the commencement of all specific study procedures, and for those 14 years of age and older, informed consent must be signed by the patient or an immediate family member. Considering the patient's condition, if the patient's signature is not conducive to the treatment of the condition, the informed consent shall be signed by the legal guardian or the patient's immediate family. Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who intend to undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation within 4 weeks * The diagnosis is APL * Those who were not considered suitable for inclusion by the researchers.
