ABL‑ or JAK‑targeted drugs with chemotherapy and venetoclax for Ph‑like ALL

Official title: An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Phase II Exploratory Study of ABL and JAK Kinase Inhibitors With Chemotherapy and Venetoclax in Adult Patients With Ph-like ALL

Run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China · NCT07454226 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This protocol tests whether adding an ABL‑targeted or JAK‑targeted drug plus venetoclax to standard chemotherapy helps people aged 14–60 with newly diagnosed Ph‑like acute lymphoblastic leukemia get deeper remissions.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are people aged 14–60 with newly diagnosed Ph‑like ALL who have adequate organ function, ECOG performance status ≤2, and a qualifying ABL‑class or JAK‑pathway genetic alteration.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are pregnant, have severe uncontrolled infections, major comorbidities, poor organ function, or who do not have Ph‑like or targetable ABL/JAK alterations are unlikely to benefit from this regimen.

What this trial studies

This open‑label, non‑randomized phase II study enrolls patients with newly diagnosed Ph‑like ALL and assigns therapy based on the driving genetic alteration: olverembatinib for ABL‑class fusions and gecacitinib for JAK‑pathway alterations. Both groups receive the targeted agent combined with venetoclax and proceed through a defined sequence of induction, consolidation, intensification, and maintenance chemotherapy, with protocol-specified use of blinatumomab as indicated. The primary endpoint is the rate of flow cytometry MRD‑negative complete remission at three months after induction, and secondary endpoints include NGS MRD rates, overall remission, survival outcomes, relapse, and safety. The study is conducted at the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital in Tianjin and is exploratory to determine whether this targeted combination improves early deep remissions.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the approach could increase the number of patients achieving early MRD‑negative remissions and reduce the risk of relapse.

How similar studies have gone: ABL‑directed TKIs improved outcomes in Ph‑positive ALL and emerging work supports targeting drivers in Ph‑like ALL, but combining ABL/JAK inhibitors with venetoclax is exploratory and not yet proven.
