Brief Summary:
This phase I trial finds the best dose and side effects of venetoclax in combination with cladribine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and mitoxantrone (CLAG-M) in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia and high-grade myeloid neoplasms. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cladribine, cytarabine, and mitoxantrone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax with CLAG-M may kill more cancer cells.

Detailed Description:

OUTLINE:

This is a dose-escalation study of venetoclax.

Patients will receive induction with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor on days 0-5 (if peripheral white blood cell count is less than 20,000/uL), cladribine on days 1-5, cytarabine on 1-5, and mitoxantrone on days 1-3. Patients also receive venetoclax orally (PO) on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 28-35 days for up to 2 induction cycles including mitoxantrone, and up to 4 consolidation cycles without mitoxantrone in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 12 months.
