Personalized vaccine trial aims to train immune system to fight leukemia
NCT ID NCT03679650
Summary
This early-stage study is testing the safety of a personalized cancer vaccine for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have recently had a stem cell transplant. The vaccine is made by fusing a patient's own immune cells with their leukemia cells, aiming to teach the body's immune system to recognize and attack any remaining cancer. Researchers are also testing if adding a low-dose chemotherapy drug (decitabine) makes the vaccine work better.
