New drug combo aims to free CML patients from lifelong pills after failed first try

NCT ID NCT03610971

Summary

This study is for people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who had to restart their daily pills after trying to stop them once. Researchers want to see if adding a drug called ruxolitinib to their current CML medication for a year can help them successfully stop all treatment for a longer period the second time they try. The trial will follow 24 participants for about four years to measure how many remain in remission without needing their CML drugs.
