Scientists test new combo against tough blood cancers

NCT ID NCT03772925

Summary

This early-stage study tested a combination of two chemotherapy drugs, pevonedistat and belinostat, in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that had returned or stopped responding to other treatments. The main goal was to find the highest dose of the drug pair that patients could tolerate without severe side effects. Researchers also looked for any early signs that the treatment might help control the cancer.
