Azacytidine, Venetoclax Plus Minus Quizartinib for First Line Older/Unfit AML Patients (VENP-A-QUI)
Spain376 participantsStarted 2026-03
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib works better than standard therapy (Venetoclax+Azacytdine) to treat naïve adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not suitable for standard induction therapy due to age, co-morbidities or other risk factors. The main question it aims to answer is:
\- Does the combination of Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib show more probability of overall survival than Venetoclax+Azacytdine?
Researchers will compare Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib to Venetoclax+Azacytdine to see if Venetoclax+Azacytidine+Quizartinib works better than Venetoclax+Azacytdine to treat AML.
Participants will be randomized to one of the two treatment arms in a 1:1 ratio, both of which will have treatment cycles of 28 days.

Inclusion criteria
. The subject must have confirmation of AML by 2022 WHO criteria, previously untreated and be ineligible for treatment with a standard cytarabine and anthracycline based induction regimen due to age and/or comorbidities.
. Patients must be considered ineligible for treatment with a standard cytarabine and anthracycline induction regimen due to age or co-morbidities defined by the following criteria:
. ECOG performance status ≤2 for patients \>75 years, ≤3 for patients ≥ 60 to 75 years of age.
. Male subjects who are sexually active, must agree, from Study Day 1 through at least 120 days after the last dose of study drug, to practice the protocol specified contraception.
. Female subjects must be either postmenopausal for at least 1 year before screening OR permanently surgical sterile (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy) or Women of Childbearing Potential (WOCBP) must agree to practice 1 highly effective method and 1 additional effective (barrier) method of contraception, at the same time, from the time of signing the informed consent through 7 months after the last dose of study drug (female and male condoms should not be used together), or Agree to practice true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence \[e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods\] withdrawal, spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea are not acceptable methods of contraception). Female subjects of childbearing potential must have negative results for pregnancy test performed and must not be lactating and breastfeeding.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
. Subject must voluntarily sign and date an informed consent, approved by an Independent Ethics Committee (IEC)/Institutional Review Board (IRB), prior to the initiation of any screening or study specific procedures, with the understanding that consent may be withdrawn by the patient at any time without prejudice to future medical care.
Exclusion criteria
. Age \<18 years old at screening.
. Subject has received prior treatment with hypomethylating agent, FLT3 or BCL2 inhibitors.
. Confirmed diagnosis of prior myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) or MDS/MPNs including CMML, aCML, JMML and others. This exclusion criterion will not be applicable to patients with FLT3 or NPM1 mutations (as per technical sensitivity threshold of local and/or central laboratory), who can be enrolled.
. Genetic diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia.
. Treated (excluding surgery or hormone-therapy) for another malignancy within 6 months before randomization or previously diagnosed with another malignancy and have any evidence of disease which may compromise the administration of investigational treatment schedule.
. Presence of any severe psychiatric disease or physical condition that, according to the physician´s criteria, contraindicates the inclusion of the patient into the clinical trial.
