Clinical Trial Summary

To explore the efficacy of venetoclax combined with azacytidine in Myelodysplastic / myeloproliferative neoplasms（MDS/MPN）, so as to improve the overall survival and treatment status of MDS/MPN patients.

Description:

At present, there is no standardized treatment strategy for MDS/MPN. The purpose of our study is to explore the efficacy of venetoclax combined with azacytidine in the treatment of MDS/MPN, so as to improve the overall survival and treatment status of patients with MDS/MPN. After the participants were treated with four cycles of venetoclax combined with azacytidine, the efficacy was evaluated according to the 2015 adult MDS/MPN response criteria to determine the disease status. Participants with disease progression and intolerance withdrew from the study during treatment.

Intervention

Drug:
• venetoclax combined with azacitidine
On day 1 of each cycle, decitabine 75 mg/m2 will be given subcutaneously, and will continue for 5 days. Simultaneously the patient will start out with Venetoclax 100mg and progress to 400mg until the 14 day cycle is finished.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Overall Response Rate (ORR)	ORR (equals the rates of complete remission [CR]+partial remission [PR]+complete cytogenetic remission [CCyR]+marrow response [MR[+clinical benefit [CB] )of venetoclax in combination with azacitidine.; CR and CCyR are shown in the secondary outcome measures below.; PR: Normalization of peripheral counts and hepatosplenomegaly with bone marrow blasts (and blast equivalents) reduced by 50%, but remaining>5% of cellularity except in cases of MDS/MPN with=5% bone marrow blasts at baseline.; MR: Optimal marrow response: Presence of all marrow criteria necessary for CR without normalization of peripheral blood indices.; Partial marrow response: Bone marrow blasts (and blast equivalents) reduced by 50%, but remaining>5% of cellularity, or reduction in grading of reticulin fibrosis from baseline on at least 2 bone marrow evaluations spaced at least 2 months apart.; CB: Hematology improvement, spleen response and symptom response.	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
Secondary	Complete remission rate	Bone marrow: =5% myeloblasts (including monocytic blast equivalent in case of CMML) with normal maturation of all cell lines and return to normal cellularity Osteomyelofibrosis absent or equal to "mild reticulin fibrosis" (=grade 1 fibrosis).; Peripheral blood: Leukocyte=10×10E9 cells/L; Hemoglobin=11g/dL; Platelets=100×10E9/L, =450×10E9/L; Neutrophils=1.0×10E9/L; Blasts 0%; Neutrophil precursors reduced to=2%; Monocytes =1.0× 10E9/L.; Extramedullary disease: Complete resolution of extramedullary disease present before therapy (eg, cutaneous disease, disease-related serous effusions), including palpable hepatosplenomegaly.	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
Secondary	Complete remission rate of bone marrow morphology	Presence of all marrow criteria necessary for CR without normalization of peripheral blood indices as presented above.	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
Secondary	Hematology improvement (HI) rate	Percentages of participants with HI (erythroid/platelet/neutrophil responses); Erythroid response: Hemoglobin increase by=2.0 g/dL; Transfusion independence (TI) for =8 week for patients requiring at least 4 packed red blood cell transfusions in the previous 8 week; Only red blood cell transfusions given based on physician's judgment for a pretreatment Hgb of =8.5 g/dL will count in the red blood cell TI response evaluation.; Platelet response: TI when previously requiring platelet transfusions of at least a rate of 4 platelet transfusions in the previous 8 week; Pretreatment=20×10E9/L: increase from<20×10E9/L to>20×10E9/L and by at least 100%; Pretreatment>20×10E9/L but=100×10E9/L: absolute increase of =30×10E9/L.; Neutrophil response: Pretreatment=0.5×10E9/L at least 100% increase and an absolute increase=0.5×10E9/L; Pretreatment>0.5×10E9/L and=1.0×10E9/L, at least 50% increase and an absolute increase =0.5×10E9/L.	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years

Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
Secondary	Incidence of severe infection (=grade 3 )	Assessed using CTCAE 5	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
Secondary	Spleen response rate	Either a minimum 50% reduction in palpable splenomegaly of a spleen that is at least 10 cm at baseline or a spleen that is palpable at more than 5 cm at baseline becomes not palpable.	Study start date to study end date, or death, whichever comes first, up to 4 years
