Interferon-alpha after Chemo for Favorable-Risk AML
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests if a medicine called interferon-alpha can help keep leukemia from coming back after initial treatment. It is for people with a favorable-risk type of AML who still have tiny traces of leukemia-related genetic material after finishing their first round of chemo.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 70 years old.
- You were just diagnosed with a favorable-risk type of AML (specific genetic forms that respond well to treatment).
- You reached your first complete remission after 1-2 rounds of standard chemo.
- You finished 4-6 cycles of consolidation chemo, including at least 2 high-dose cytarabine rounds.
- After consolidation, your bone marrow is in remission, but a very small amount of leukemia-related genetic material (MRD) can still be found.

This trial tests whether the drug interferon alfa can help prevent blood cancer from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain types of blood cancer (MDS or AML with a TP53 mutation) who had no detectable cancer cells when checked after transplant.
This trial tests combining a protein called interferon-gamma with an infusion of donor white blood cells to treat AML or MDS that returned after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination helps the donor cells attack the cancer more effectively.
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 trial tests a new type of maintenance therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who have already responded well to chemotherapy. The treatment uses your own immune cells to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
This trial compares two types of chemotherapy for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that came back or did not get better after initial treatment. Your doctor will help decide if you can join, and you will be randomly assigned to either a lower-intensity or a higher-intensity treatment plan.
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of medicines (decitabine/cedazuridine, venetoclax, and ivosidenib or enasidenib) in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or hasn’t responded. It may help control the leukemia by targeting cancer cells and specific genetic changes in the leukemia.
