Scientists test aggressive new drug cocktail for Tough-to-Treat leukemia

NCT ID NCT03900949

Summary

This early-stage study aimed to find the safest dose of a four-drug combination for adults newly diagnosed with a specific genetic type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Researchers tested adding two newer drugs (gemtuzumab ozogamicin and midostaurin) to a standard two-drug chemotherapy backbone. The main goal was to see how well patients tolerated this intensive treatment approach.
