Adaptive Treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukemia Based on D14 MRD Results

Q: What is the NCT05736978 clinical trial studying?

This is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of selinexor in combination with azacitidine and venetoclax for untreated acute myeloid leukemia based on MRD results on day 14 of the first cycle. The full protocol is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and includes the primary outcome measures, eligibility criteria, and study endpoints.

Q: Who can participate in NCT05736978?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

Q: How do I contact the trial site for NCT05736978?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Q: Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.

Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Adaptive Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Based on D14 MRD results-a Multicenter, Single-arm, Prospective Clinical Study

Adaptive Treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukemia Based on D14 MRD Results (NCT05736978) is a Phase 2 interventional studying AML and MRD, sponsored by Shanghai Tong Ren Hospital. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against AML and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 58 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused AML subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.
