Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • 1. Patients aged ≥ 16 years old.
  • 2. Confirmed diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) by morphology, flow cytometry, and cytogenetics/molecular testing.
  • 3. performance status 0-2.
  • 4. Adequate organ function:
  • Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 ×
  • Total ≤ 2 × ULN
  • /ALT ≤ 3 × ULN
  • 5. Able to understand and sign the form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Concurrent participation in another interventional clinical trial.
  • 2. History of other within the past 5 years (except cured basal cell carcinoma or in situ cervical cancer).
  • 3. Severe uncontrolled infection or other serious underlying diseases that may interfere with study treatment or follow-up.
  • 4. Known to lisaftoclax, ATRA, ATO, or any components of the study regimen.
  • 5. Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Lisaftoclax for Prevention of Differentiation Syndrom

    Drug: Lisaftoclax (APG-2575)

Interventions

  • Description: Newly diagnosed APL patients receive standard induction therapy with oral ATRA 25 mg/m²/day and intravenous ATO 0.16 mg/kg/day. Lisaftoclax (APG-2575) is given for DS prophylaxis in patients with peripheral WBC count \>2.0×10⁹/L or ≥24-hour 2-fold WBC elevation. Lisaftoclax can only be initiated 24 hours after ATRA/ATO induction initiation. Dosing and Escalation: Lisaftoclax starts at 50 mg QD. Dose may be escalated to 100 mg QD, with a maximum dose of 100 mg twice daily (bid) based on patient tolerability. Monitoring and Interruption: Daily peripheral blood count monitoring is required during Lisaftoclax treatment. Lisaftoclax must be immediately withheld if the WBC count declines for two consecutive days. Protocol-defined dexamethasone or ruxolitinib will be administered for suspected DS during induction therapy.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. the rate of Differentiation Syndrom

    DS, known as retinoic acid syndrome, is a severe complication of ATRA or ATO during the differentiation of promyelocytes. Signs of DS are presented as fever, weight gain, hypertension, dyspnoea, radiographic opacities, peripheral edema and acute renal failure.

    Time frame: the induction regimen (21 days to 28 days)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 30, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
