Can new drug cocktails beat back Hard-to-Treat leukemia?
NCT ID NCT06265545
First seen Aug 07, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026
Summary
This trial is testing several different drug combinations to find the best approach for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has not responded to treatment or has come back. The study compares the effectiveness and safety of these salvage therapies, aiming to improve remission rates and survival. It includes adults with refractory or relapsed AML (excluding a subtype called APL) and measures outcomes like overall response and survival.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Multiple drug combinations including ivosidenib, venetoclax, gilteritinib, homoharringtonine, cytarabine, anthracyclines, azacitidine, lisaftoclax, and other investigational agents
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could identify more effective treatment regimens for patients with hard-to-treat AML, potentially improving remission rates and survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage platform trial, and the various drug combinations may not all prove safe or effective. There is also risk of significant side effects from intensive chemotherapy.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (except for acute promyelocytic leukemia) diagnosed by bone marrow cell morphology, immunology and genetics above are classified according to the French-British-American Collaboration diagnostic criteria (FAB criteria) and the World Health Organization diagnostic criteria (WHO2016 criteria). 2\. Meet criteria for refractory/recurrent AML (except APL). The recurrence was morphological recurrence, excluding molecular recurrence. Except for simple extramedullary leukemia. 3\. Age and gender are not limited. 4. Informed consent must be signed before the start of the study procedure, and the informed consent must be signed by the patient himself or his immediate family if he is 18 years old and above; For young patients under the age of 18, the legal guardian shall sign the informed consent. 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: 1. Concurrent malignant tumors of other organs (patients requiring treatment). 2. Participants considered unsuitable for inclusion by the researchers.
