Maintenance therapy for favorable-risk AML patients
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a maintenance treatment with a hypomethylating agent can help keep favorable-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in remission after they have completed initial therapy. It is designed for patients who have achieved negative minimal residual disease (MRD) and have not received a stem cell transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 16 years or older.
- You have favorable-risk AML as defined by ELN 2022 guidelines.
- You reached remission after induction therapy and have received at least 3 cycles of high-dose cytarabine consolidation, with MRD-negative status (for certain mutations, specific thresholds apply).
- You have not had a stem cell transplant before joining this trial.
- You are in good physical condition (ECOG score 0-2) and expected to live at least 3 months.
- You do not have serious heart, lung, liver, or kidney issues, and you are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This Phase 1 trial tests whether continuing decitabine alone or with other targeted drugs can help prevent AML from coming back after you reach remission. It’s designed to study safety and how well these maintenance options work for people who are not immediately able to get a stem cell transplant.
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination treatment to try to get rid of remaining cancer cells in young adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is in remission but still detectable at low levels. It may help patients eliminate “minimal residual disease” (small traces of leukemia cells) and reduce relapse risk.
This trial tests whether it is safe to stop taking a type of chemotherapy (azacitidine or decitabine) combined with venetoclax if you have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and have achieved a remission with no trace of leukemia cells. If you have been on this treatment for less than a year and are not eligible for a stem cell transplant, you may be able to stop therapy and be monitored closely.
This trial tests a maintenance treatment called 'ITIVA' for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have achieved remission after initial chemotherapy and consolidation therapy. The goal is to see if this treatment helps keep the leukemia from coming back.
This early-phase trial tests whether a combination of targeted medicines can improve outcomes in people with higher-risk MDS or certain types of AML or CMML. It’s designed to find the safest dose and learn if the treatment can help the cancer respond.
This trial tests an oral medication (azacitidine) for people with AML who are in remission and planning a stem cell transplant. It focuses on patients who face health disparities, such as financial or access barriers, to help make transplant more successful for everyone.
