About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib works better than standard therapy (Venetoclax+Azacytdine) to treat naïve adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not suitable for standard induction therapy due to age, co-morbidities or other risk factors. The main question it aims to answer is:

\- Does the combination of Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib show more probability of overall survival than Venetoclax+Azacytdine?

Researchers will compare Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib to Venetoclax+Azacytdine to see if Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib works better than Venetoclax+Azacytdine to treat AML.

Participants will be randomized to one of the two treatment arms in a 1:1 ratio, both of which will have treatment cycles of 28 days.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

The subject must have confirmation of AML by 2022 WHO criteria, previously untreated and be ineligible for treatment with a standard cytarabine and anthracycline based induction regimen due to age and/or comorbidities.

≥ 75 years of age;

ECOG Performance Status of 2 or 3;

Cardiac history of cardiac heart failure (CHF) requiring treatment or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >45% and ≤ 55% or chronic stable angina.

Disqualifiers

Age <18 years old at screening.

Subject has received prior treatment with hypomethylating agent, FLT3 or BCL2 inhibitors.

Confirmed diagnosis of prior myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) or MDS/MPNs including CMML, aCML, JMML and others. This exclusion criterion will not be applicable to patients with FLT3 or NPM1 mutations (as per technical sensitivity threshold of local and/or central laboratory), who can be enrolled.

Genetic diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia.
