Venetoclax and a Pediatric-Inspired Regimen for the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
A Phase 1 Study Combining Venetoclax With a Pediatric-Inspired Regimen for Newly Diagnosed Adults With B Cell Ph-Like Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
City of Hope Medical Center
24 participants

Conditions
Summary
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of venetoclax in combination with a pediatric-inspired chemotherapy regimen known as C10403 in treating patients with newly diagnosed B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. The C10403 regimen is composed of the chemotherapy drugs cytarabine, cyclophosphamide, daunorubicin, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase, vincristine, and methotrexate, all which work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It also consists of prednisone, which is an anti-inflammatory drug that lowers the body's immune response and is used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of some types of cancer. This study may help researchers learn if adding venetoclax to the pediatric-inspired C10403 regimen can be tolerated and help treat older patients.
