New Triple-Drug attack on aggressive leukemia shows promise in major trial
NCT ID NCT07407140
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a three-drug combination (venetoclax, azacitidine, and gilteritinib) followed by strong chemotherapy works better than standard chemotherapy plus gilteritinib for adults with a specific genetic type of acute myeloid leukemia (FLT3-mutated AML). About 300 people aged 14 to 74 who are healthy enough for intensive treatment will take part. The goal is to see if the new approach helps patients live longer without the cancer coming back.
