MM1OA-S04

This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares ASTX727 with standard duration versus shorter duration of venetoclax for the treatment of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). ASTX727 is a combination of decitabine and cedazuridine. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Shorter duration venetoclax may be as effective as standard duration venetoclax when given with ASTX727 for the treatment of newly diagnosed AML.
