Anthracycline

This is a therapeutic intervention trial evaluating the clinical utility of a novel blood-based epigenetic biomarker-genome-wide 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in cell-free DNA (cfDNA)-for assessing measurable residual disease (MRD) in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The study compares the efficacy of hypomethylating agent (HMA)-based therapy versus intensive induction chemotherapy, using the 5hmC biomarker to guide post-induction treatment decisions. Approximately 112 adult patients will be enrolled and assigned to treatment arms based on a stratified sampling scheme. Blood samples will be collected at defined intervals to assess MRD status. Primary endpoints include minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate, duration of remission, event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS).

This is a phase II, open-label, multi-center study evaluating the efficacy and safety of sonrotoclax (SA) in combination with azacitidine (AZA) plus individualized targeted or chemotherapeutic agents in adult participants with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Eligible participants will be stratified into different treatment arms based on genetic background (FLT3/IDH1 mutation status) and fitness for intensive chemotherapy. All participants will receive sonrotoclax with dose escalation from 20 mg/day to 320 mg/day, followed by maintenance dosing, which may be temporarily held by the investigator from Day 14 to Day 28 of each 28-day cycle based on the participant's condition, combined with azacitidine 75 mg/m²/day intravenously on Days 1-7. For participants fit for intensive chemotherapy, additional anthracycline (daunorubicin 60 mg/m²/day or idarubicin 10 mg/m²/day on Days 1-3) will be administered. For participants with FLT3 mutations, gilteritinib 80 mg once daily on Days 1-14 will be added; for those with IDH1 mutations, ivosidenib 500 mg once daily on Days 1-28 will be added.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is as sociated with shorter overall survival than other breast cancer subtypes, despite the use of curative-intent anthracycline- and taxane-based systemic chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant therapy is now also recognized as the standard treatment for patients with high-risk TNBC. The Keynote-522 study demonstrated that the application of pembrolizumab has raised the pathological Complete Response (pCR) rate in TNBC to over 60%, but nearly 40% of patients still do not achieve pCR. How to further improve the pCR rate in TNBC patients has become a hot topic of current research. Posaconazole is an antibiotic used to prevent invasive Aspergillus and Candida infections and to treat oropharyngeal candidiasis. Our preclinical studies have found that posaconazole can inhibit immune cell-mediated steroidogenesis to restrict TNBC tumor progression. The investigators design and begin a a prospective randomized controlled clinical study to explore the effectiveness of posaconazole in the neoadjuvant treatment of TNBC.
