Recruiting PHASE1 Acute Myeloid Leukemia

New treatment option for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Official title 8-Chloroadenosine in Combination With Venetoclax for the Treatment of Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05263284

What this study is testing

What is 8-Chloroadenosine?

8-Chloroadenosine 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 8-Chloro-adenosine, 8-Cl-adenosine.

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 I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of a new 8-chloroadenosine in combination with venetoclax in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). 8-Chloroadenosine may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
  • Time commitment: about 1 year
