First seen Jun 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding bexmarilimab, an antibody that targets Clever-1, to standard azacitidine chemotherapy improves outcomes for adults with newly diagnosed higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS). Participants are randomly assigned to receive one of two doses of bexmarilimab plus azacitidine, or a placebo plus azacitidine. The main goal is to select the best dose of bexmarilimab for future studies based on both response and side effects.
