Outcomes of venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine in fit adults patients with de novo adverse-risk acute myeloid leukaemia: A single-centre retrospective analysis.

ABSTRACT: Adverse-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has a dismal prognosis. We aimed to investigate the activity and tolerability of venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine (HHT) plus cytarabine (VHA) regimen for de novo adverse-risk AML. Thirteen de novo AML patients with adverse-risk factors were treated with venetoclax (100 mg day 1, 200 mg day 2, 400 mg days 3-21), HHT (1 mg/m² days 1-5) and cytarabine (100 mg/m² days 1-5) (VHA regimen). Complete remission (CR) was achieved in 11/13 patient (84.6%), all of CR responders were measurable residual disease (MRD) negative detected by multi-parameter flow cytometry (MFC). Grade 3-4 neutropenia, anaemia, and thrombocytopenia occurred in most patients. Grade 3-4 non haematological adverse events (AEs) included febrile neutropeni
