First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study tests whether combining two chemotherapy drugs (tretinoin and arsenic trioxide) with an immunotherapy drug (gemtuzumab ozogamicin) works better than the two drugs alone for people with a specific type of leukemia called acute promyelocytic leukemia. About 151 newly diagnosed patients will take part. The goal is to see if the combination can stop the cancer from coming back longer.
