About

In patients with MRD-positive patients after AML/MDS allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, azacytidine combined with venetoclax may be effective in eliminating micro residual diseases, reducing the risk of relapse, and ultimately improving long-term survival.The primary purpose of this study was to explore an effective protocol to reduce the risk of relapse in patients with MRD positive after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for AML/MDS.

Full description

The technology of Allogeneic Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has been continuously improved, relpase is still the leading cause of death after allo-HSCT. Monitoring of micro residual disease (MRD) after allogeneic HSCT provides a risk stratification of relpase risk in patients after transplantation.There is an urgent need to find an effective intervention plan for patients with MRD positive after transplantation, in order to reduce the risk of relapse after transplantation and improve long-term survival.The combination of demethylated drugs with venetoclax has shown promising results in clinical trials in AML patients who cannot tolerate induction chemotherapy.In patients with MRD-positive patients after AML/MDS allo-HSCT, azacytidine combined with venetoclax may be effective in eliminating small residual diseases, reducing the risk of relapse, and ultimately improving long-term survival.The primary purpose of this study was to explore an effective protocol to reduce the risk of relapse in patients with MRD positive after allo-HSCT for AML/MDS.

Patients with no GVHD and no previous history of 3 or more degrees of aGVHD. 10. Patients who voluntarily participate in the clinical trial, understand the research procedure and can sign the informed consent in writing.

Exclusion criteria

Patients with severe cardiac insufficiency and EF lower than 60%; or patients with severe arrhythmia who could not tolerate super pretreatment.
Patients with activity of aGVHD or extensive cGVHD.
Patients with BCR/ABL positive.
Patients who were previously known to be resistant to azacytidine or dessicabine or venetoclax.
In patients with severe pulmonary insufficiency (obstructive and / or restrictive ventilation disorders), the researchers evaluated the patients who could not tolerate the super pretreatment scheme.
Patients with severe liver function impairment and liver function indexes (alt, TBIL) more than 3 ULN were evaluated as intolerant of super pretreatment.
In patients with severe renal insufficiency, the renal function index (CR) is more than 2 times of the upper limit of the normal value (ULN), or the 24-hour creatinine clearance rate (CR) is less than 50ml / min, the researchers evaluated that they could not tolerate the super pretreatment scheme.
In patients with severe active infection, the researchers evaluated that they could not tolerate the pretreatment.
Patients who had allergic reactions or serious adverse reactions in the previous use of pretreatment related drugs could not be included in the study.
Patients with hematological recurrence (bone marrow smear: proportion of primordial cells >=5%) or any extramedullary recurrence.
Other reasons why the researchers could not be selected.
