Low-intensity chemotherapy with olverembatinib, venetoclax and blinatumomab for newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome–positive ALL

Official title: Low-intensity Chemotherapy Combined With Targeted-Immunotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Prospective Clinical Cohort Study

Run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China · NCT07493161 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial will test whether adding venetoclax to a low‑intensity chemotherapy plan together with continuous olverembatinib and planned blinatumomab helps people aged 14+ with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL get deeper early molecular remission and live longer.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are people aged 14 or older with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL (BCR::ABL1 positive), ECOG ≤2, adequate organ function, and no prior systemic anti‑leukemic therapy besides brief cytoreduction.

Probably not a fit

Patients with recent myocardial infarction, uncontrolled cardiac disease, uncontrolled severe infection, a diagnosis of CML in blast/accelerated phase, or those unable to tolerate the required therapies are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.

What this trial studies

This is a single-center, open‑label, randomized 1:1 trial for patients ≥14 years with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome–positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia and adequate organ function. All participants receive continuous olverembatinib and a low‑intensity chemotherapy backbone (vincristine and prednisone), with randomization to receive or not receive venetoclax during the first three induction/consolidation cycles; up to four cycles of blinatumomab may begin from cycle four and allo‑HSCT is allowed per physician decision. The co‑primary endpoints are the proportion of patients achieving BCR::ABL1 ≤0.01% at 90 days and event‑free survival, and secondary endpoints include overall survival, relapse‑free survival, molecular relapse rate, NGS MRD negativity, and cardiovascular events. The trial excludes patients with significant recent cardiac events, uncontrolled infection, prior systemic anti‑leukemic therapy (except limited cytoreduction), or other medical/psychiatric conditions that would prevent protocol therapy.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could produce earlier and deeper molecular remissions and improve event‑free and overall survival while using a lower‑intensity chemotherapy backbone.

How similar studies have gone: Combining TKIs with blinatumomab or adding venetoclax has shown promising early signals in limited series and nonrandomized reports, but randomized evidence specifically in Ph+ ALL remains limited.
