Decitabine, Venetoclax and Blinatumomab for Maintenance Following HSCT in Patients With Ph-Negative B-ALL

A Multicenter, Prospective, Phase II Study of Decitabine, Venetoclax and Blinatumomab for Maintenance Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Patients With Ph-Negative B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

This study aims to evaluate whether maintenance therapy with decitabine, venetoclax and blinatumomab could improve the 2-year progression free survival (PFS) of patients with philadelphia chromosome-negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia who had recently received an allogeneic stem cell transplant and in measurable residual disease-negative remission.

This is a phase Ⅱ, open-label, single-arm, multi-center study in patients with philadelphia chromosome-negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia who had recently received an allogeneic stem cell transplant and in minimal residual disease-negative remission. In this study, patients will be treated with 4 cycles of maintence therapies for up to one year (or until intolerable toxicity, death, withdrawal, or study termination). In cycle one and three, patients will receive decitabine monotherapy, and in cycle two and four, patients will receive a combination of venetoclax and blinatumomab. This study aims to evaluate whether maintenance therapy with decitabine, venetoclax and blinatumomab could improve the 2-year progression free survival (PFS) of those patients, and explore the efficiency and safety.
