Targeted drug combo offers hope for Tough-to-Treat leukemia

NCT ID NCT01371630

Summary

This study is testing a combination of a targeted cancer drug (inotuzumab ozogamicin), low-intensity chemotherapy, and an immunotherapy drug (blinatumomab) for adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It focuses on older patients (60+) or younger patients who are too frail for standard high-dose chemotherapy, as well as those whose cancer has returned or resisted prior treatment. The main goals are to find the safest dose and see how well this approach controls the leukemia and extends survival.
