New treatment option for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Official title Decitabine Alone or in Combination With Venetoclax, Gilteritinib, Enasidenib, or Ivosidenib as Maintenance Therapy for the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Remission
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05010772
What this study is testing
What is Decitabine and Cedazuridine?
Decitabine and Cedazuridine is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for acute myeloid leukemia.
Also referred to as ASTX727, C-DEC.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This phase Ib trial is to find out the side effects and possible benefits of decitabine alone or given together with venetoclax, gilteritinib, enasidenib, or ivosidenib in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is under control (remission). Chemotherapy drugs, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
- Time commitment: about 4 weeks
