MRD response-adapted treatment for high-risk acute myeloid leukemia

Measurable Residual Disease Response-adapted Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Adverse-risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia: an Open-label, Randomized, Controlled Trial(TROPHY-AML01)

Not applicable Interventional Peking University People's Hospital · NCT06301425

This study is testing a new way to treat high-risk acute myeloid leukemia by personalizing stem cell transplant plans based on how much leukemia is still detectable after initial treatment.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness and safety of a regimen that adapts allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) based on measurable residual disease (MRD) response in patients with adverse-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The study is open-label and randomized, focusing on patients who have achieved complete remission after one or two courses of induction chemotherapy. Given the high relapse rates in this patient population, the trial aims to improve long-term leukemia-free survival by tailoring post-chemotherapy treatment based on MRD levels. The trial is conducted at multiple hospitals in China, including Peking University People's Hospital.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 16-65 newly diagnosed with adverse-risk acute myeloid leukemia who achieve complete remission after one or two courses of chemotherapy.

Not a fit: Patients who are categorized as having favorable or intermediate-risk AML or those who do not achieve complete remission after induction chemotherapy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve survival rates and reduce relapse in patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise in using MRD as a predictor for relapse in AML, suggesting that this adaptive approach may be beneficial.
