ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06429449

What this study is testing

What is Venetoclax?

Venetoclax is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for leukemia.

Also referred to as Venclexta, Venclyxto.

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 is an open label, phase 1 study for AML subjects with relapsed or refractory disease or subjects in morphologic remission with MRD+ after first line therapy with venetoclax+HMA. A preliminary dose-finding cohort will be followed by 3 expansion cohorts.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
