New hope for tough leukemia: adding a pill to transplant prep

NCT ID NCT03247088

Summary

This study is testing if adding the drug sorafenib to standard chemotherapy drugs (busulfan and fludarabine) is safe and effective for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has returned or not responded to treatment. The goal is to better prepare patients for a stem cell transplant from a donor. Researchers want to see if this combination helps control the cancer and improves survival after the transplant.
