Study #2019-0353
A Phase II Study of Venetoclax in Combination with Azacitidine in the Post-Transplant Setting for AML, T Cell Leukemia and B Cell ALL, and Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia
MD Anderson Study Status
Enrolling
Treatment Agent
Azacitidine, Venetoclax
Description
This phase II trial studies how well venetoclax and azacitidine work for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia after stem cell transplantation. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Chemotherapy drugs, such as azacitidine, 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. Giving venetoclax and azacitidine after a stem cell transplant may help control high risk leukemia and prevent it from coming back after the transplant.
