Официальное название

A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Clinical Study of Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride Liposome, Subcutaneous Cytarabine and G-CSF Combined With Venetoclax Versus Azacitidine Combined With Venetoclax in the Treatment of MDS-IB2 and Newly Diagnosed Adult Secondary or Elderly AML

Обзор

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome, subcutaneous cytarabine and G-CSF combined with venetoclax (CMG+Ven) versus azacitidine combined with venetoclax (VA) in the treatment of adult myelodysplastic syndrome IB2 (MDS-IB2) and newly diagnosed secondary or elderly AML.

Подробное описание

Patients with secondary AML (S-AML) and elderly AML have an extremely poor prognosis due to advanced age, multiple comorbidities, and unfavorable cytogenetic abnormalities. Traditional intensive chemotherapy is associated with low remission rates and substantial toxicity. Myelodysplastic syndrome with excess blasts-2 (MDS-IB2) carries a very high risk of transformation to AML, and its management is similar to that of AML. Although venetoclax, a BCL-2 targeted agent, combined with azacitidine (VA regimen) has revolutionized the treatment paradigm for AML patients unfit for intensive chemotherapy, the VA regimen provides insufficient depth of remission in patients eligible for chemotherapy and is difficult to administer at full dosage and full course, highlighting an urgent need for optimization.

Mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome is an improved formulation of conventional mitoxantrone. Through liposomal encapsulation and polyethylene glycol modification, it exhibits a prolonged half-life and enhanced tumor targeting, while significantly reducing cardiac toxicity and other non-hematologic toxicities. Our center's previous exploratory study demonstrated that mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome combined with cytarabine, G-CSF, and venetoclax (CMG+Ven) achieved a composite complete remission (CRc) rate of 72.6% and an MRD-negative rate of 75.6% in patients with newly diagnosed secondary or elderly AML. Furthermore, compared with the VA regimen, CMG+Ven significantly increased the MRD-negative rate and shortened hospital stay, showing promising clinical potential.

Therefore, the investigators designed a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial. The study plans to enroll 168 adult patients with clinically confirmed MDS-IB2 and newly diagnosed secondary or elderly AML. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive one of the following induction treatments: 1) mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome, subcutaneous cytarabine, and G-CSF combined with venetoclax (CMG+VEN), or 2) azacitidine combined with venetoclax (VA). The primary endpoint is the composite complete remission (CRc) rate following induction therapy.
