VA-CAG Two-Week vs. Three-Week Regimen for Induction Remission in Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
Sponsor: Hematology department of the 920th hospital
Summary
Objective: This clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of the VA-CAG regimen administered as a two-week schedule versus a three-week schedule for induction remission in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Key Research Questions: 1. Is the efficacy of the two-week VA-CAG regimen equivalent to that of the three-week regimen in inducing remission in AML? 2. Does the two-week VA-CAG regimen reduce treatment-related adverse events compared to the three-week regimen? Methods: Researchers will compare the efficacy and safety of the two-week VA-CAG regimen with the three-week regimen for induction remission in AML. Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive standard treatment with either the two-week or three-week VA-CAG regimen. Patients are required to attend monthly follow-up visits for a total of one year. At each follow-up, the following assessments will be performed: complete blood count, liver and kidney function tests, bone marrow aspiration, flow cytometric measurement of minimal residual disease (MRD), and/or fusion gene analysis, along with monitoring of other efficacy endpoints and adverse reactions.
