Pediatric-inspired Regimen Combined With Venetoclax for Adolescent and Adult Patients With de Novo Philadelphia Chromosome-Negative Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

The pediatric-inspired regimen has greatly improved the prognosis of adult patients with with Philadelphia chromosome-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph- ALL), but relapse remains a great challenge. Venetoclax (Ven) is an oral, selective inhibitor of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2). Although this drug is currently used primarily for acute myeloid leukemia, in vitro as well as small cohort studies suggest a effect in acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This study proposes to combine pediatric-inspired regimen with venetoclax for the treatment of adult patients with Ph- ALL, aiming to improve the MRD-negative complete remission rate measured by flow cytometry after induction and to reduce relapse, thus further improving patients overall survival.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Pediatric-inspired Regimen Combined With Venetoclax
Induction therapy is administered as follows:Vincristine (VCR) 1.4 mg/m2 (maximum dose 2 mg) IV on D1,8,1,5,22; Daunorubicin (DNR) 30 mg/m2/day IV on D1-3; Cyclophosphamide (CTX) 1200 mg/m2 IV on D1,15; Pegaspargase 2500u/m2 IM on D5; Prednisone 1 mg/kg/d PO on D1-14, 0.5 mg/kg/d PO on D15-28; Venetoclax 100 mg PO on D6,200 mg on D7, 400mg on D8-14, All patients underwent bone marrow aspiration on day 14 during induction. Patients with bone marrow blasts ≥10% on day 14 of induction received 7 additional days of Venetoclax on day 15-22. Consolidation therapy is a combination of multi-drug pediatric-inspired regimen chemotherapy and Venetoclax. Maintenance therapy consisted of a monthly VMMP regimen (vincristine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, prednisone) continuing until 3 years for male and 2.5 years for female patients.
