What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to assess the efficacy of Dasatinib monotherapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have not responded to previous treatment with Venetoclax and Azacitidine. Participants will receive Dasatinib for up to three months, with their response evaluated through myelograms and complete blood counts after each treatment cycle. The study will follow participants for six months to monitor outcomes and side effects.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with confirmed AML who are refractory to Venetoclax and Azacitidine.

Not a fit: Patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive AML, acute promyelocytic leukemia, or those eligible for other targeted therapies may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for AML patients who have limited treatment choices.

How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies on Dasatinib in other contexts, this specific approach for refractory AML is novel and has not been extensively tested.
