Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Signed informed consent
  • Newly diagnosed CD33-positive AML with NPM1 mutation according to WHO criteria
  • Age 18-70 years
  • Fit for intensive chemotherapy, defined by: 1. ECOG 0-2 2. Adequate hepatic function: ALAT/ASAT/Bilirubin ≤ 2.5 x ULN unless considered due to leukemic organ involvement (Note: Subjects with Gilbert's Syndrome may have a bilirubin > 2.5 × ULN per discussion between the investigator and Coordinating investigator.) 3. Adequate renal function assessed by serum creatinine ≤ 1.5x ULN OR creatinine clearance (by Cockcroft Gault formula) ≥ 50 mL/min
  • WBC < 25 x 109/L (<25,000/µL) (Note: Prior hydroxyurea is permitted to meet this criterion.)
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent.

You likely can't join if

  • Activating FLT3 mutation
  • Known positivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and history of active or chronic infectious hepatitis unless serology demonstrates clearance of infection (i.e. PCR undetectable viral load for hepatitis).
  • Inability to swallow oral medications
  • Any malabsorption condition
  • Cardiovascular disability status of New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class ≥ 2, unstable coronary artery disease (MI more than 6 months prior to study entry is permitted); serious cardiac ventricular arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy (Note: Class 2 is defined as cardiac disease in which patients are comfortable at rest but ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitations, dyspnea, or anginal pain).
  • Relapsed or refractory AML

What rules you out
  • Activating FLT3 mutation
  • Known positivity for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and history of active or chronic infectious hepatitis unless serology demonstrates clearance of infection (i.e. PCR undetectable viral load for hepatitis).
  • Inability to swallow oral medications

  • Relapsed or refractory AML
  • AML after antecedent myelodysplasia (MDS) with prior cytotoxic treatment
  • Prior history of malignancy, other than MDS, unless the subject has been free of the disease for equal to or greater than 1 year prior to start of study treatment (exceptions are basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix or of the breast, incidental histologic finding of prostate cancer (T1a or T1b using the tumor, node, metastasis clinical staging system))
  • Previous treatment with HMA or venetoclax
  • Previous treatment for AML except hydroxyurea
  • Cumulative previous exposure to anthracyclines of > 200 mg/m2 doxorubicin equivalents
  • CNS involvement or extramedullary disease only
