Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ruxolitinib when given together with venetoclax and compares the effect of ruxolitinib in combination with venetoclax to venetoclax and azacitidine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back (relapsed) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Ruxolitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Azacitidine stops cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid and may kill cancer cells. It is a type of antimetabolite. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving ruxolitinib in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective compare to ruxolitinib with venetoclax in treating patients with relapsed or refractory AML.
