Induction and Consolidation With Fludarabine, Cytarabine, Idarubicin, and Venetoclax for the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This phase II trial compares induction and consolidation therapy with fludarabine, cytarabine, idarubicin, and venetoclax to cytarabine and daunorubicin induction and cytarabine consolidation for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Patients with AML often receive induction and consolidation therapy. Induction therapy is given first to get the patient's AML under control (remission). Consolidation therapy is given after the cancer has disappeared following the initial therapy. Consolidation therapy is used to kill any cancer cells that may be left in the body. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine, cytarabine, idarubicin, and daunorubicin, 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. 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. Giving fludarabine, cytarabine, idarubicin, and venetoclax for induction and consolidation therapy may be more effective in treating AML.
