Summary
This study tested a drug called blinatumomab in 36 adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia who were in remission but still had a small number of cancer cells (minimal residual disease). The drug helps the immune system attack these leftover cells to keep the cancer from coming back. The goal was to see if it could extend the time patients stay cancer-free.
