Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Umbrella Study Based on Molecular Genetics to Guide the Efficacy and Safety of Maintenance Therapy After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Acute Myeloid Leukemia/Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Run by Ruijin Hospital · NCT06972641 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing whether personalized treatment based on genetic information can help people with blood cancers like acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes stay healthy after a stem cell transplant.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are patients aged 14-75 years with AML or MDS who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and have specific genetic mutations identified through second-generation sequencing.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without the specified genetic mutations or those who do not meet the eligibility criteria for the treatment arms may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study is a multicenter, open-label clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of mutation-based maintenance therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Participants will be grouped based on their myeloid genomic sequencing results and assigned to different treatment regimens tailored to their specific genetic mutations. Maintenance therapy will begin 60-90 days post-transplant and will continue for up to two years, with follow-up monitoring for safety and survival. The study aims to determine the best therapeutic approach based on individual genetic profiles to improve patient outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could lead to more effective and personalized maintenance therapies for patients after stem cell transplantation.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using genetic profiling to guide treatment decisions in hematologic malignancies, suggesting that this approach may be effective.
