New combo pill aims for deep remission in blood cancer, hoping patients can stop treatment

NCT ID NCT05007873

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a pill called ASTX727 to the standard drug dasatinib works better for people newly diagnosed with a slow-growing type of blood cancer called chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The goal is to achieve a very deep remission, where the cancer is nearly undetectable, which might allow patients to eventually stop treatment safely. About 70 participants will take the two-drug combination for up to 3 years, followed by dasatinib alone for up to 12 more years, to see how well it controls the disease and if it's safe.
