All

Inclusion Criteria

  • Signed Informed consent
  • AML according to WHO criteria, excluding APL
  • Relapsed after first or second CR, including relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (dose escalation and expansion phase)
  • Only expansion phase: Primary refractory after 1-2 cycles of standard induction chemotherapy (100 to 200 mg/m2 cytarabine over 7-10 days plus anthracycline or mitoxantrone over 3 days) or equivalent treatment (e.g. CPX351)
  • Note: Primary refractory disease is defined by either = 20% myeloid blasts on early response assessment around day 15 after start of the most recent induction, or by = 5% myeloid blasts after blood count recovery after start of the most recent induction, respectively.
  • Age 18-75 years
  • Fit for intensive chemotherapy, defined by
  • - ECOG 0-2, life expectancy > 3 months
  • - Adequate hepatic function (ALAT/ASAT/Bilirubin =2.5 x ULN )
  • - Adequate renal function assessed by creatinine < 1.5 x ULN OR creatinine clearance (by Cockcroft Gault Formula) = 50 mL/min
  • Patient is afebrile and hemodynamically stable for at least 72 hours at the time of study medication initiation.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 54
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 54

Exclusion Criteria

  • Acute promyelocytic leukemia
  • CNS involvement or subjects with extramedullary disease only
  • Known hypersensitivity to any agent given in association with this study including cytarabine or mitoxantrone
  • relapse within 90 days after last cytarabine dose
  • Intended hematopoietic stem cell transplantation planned as early conditioning from aplasia without previous blood count recovery
  • Cumulative previous exposure to anthracyclines of >410 mg/m2 doxorubicin equivalents
  • Acute GVHD = grade 2, extensive chronic GVHD or requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy
  • HIV infection (due to potential drug-drug interactions between antiretroviral medications and venetoclax, as well as anticipated venetoclax mechanism based lymphopenia that may potentially increase the risk of opportunistic infections)
  • Inability to swallow oral medications
  • Any malabsorption condition
  • Cardiovascular disability status of New York Heart Association Class = 2. Class 2 is defined as cardiac disease in which patients are comfortable at rest but ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitations, dyspnea, or anginal pain.
  • Chronic respiratory disease that requires continuous oxygen use.
  • White blood cell count > 25 × 109/L. Note: Hydroxyurea is permitted to meet this criterion.
  • AML relapse treatment with any investigational or commercial drug within 10 days before enrolment. Hydroxyurea is allowed until enrolment to control peripheral WBC counts.
  • Substance abuse, medical, psychological, or social conditions that may interfere with the subject’s cooperation with the requirements of the trial or evaluation of the study results
  • Acute non-hematologic toxicities from any prior anti-leukemia therapy or from previous investigational drugs that have not resolved to Grade <2 per National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 5.0
  • History of active or chronic infectious hepatitis unless serology demonstrates clearance of infection (Occult or prior hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (defined as negative hepatitis B surface antigen and positive total hepatitis B core antibody) may be included if HBV DNA is undetectable, provided that they are willing to undergo monthly DNA testing. Patients who have protective titers of hepatitis B surface antibody after vaccination or prior but cured hepatitis B are eligible. Patients positive for hepatitis C virus antibody are eligible provided PCR is negative for HCV RNA)
  • History of clinically significant liver cirrhosis (e.g., Child-Pugh class B and C).
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding patients
