New drug combo aims to control blood cancer in early phase

NCT ID NCT02689440

Summary

This study is testing whether combining two drugs, dasatinib and venetoclax, can better control early-stage chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) than one drug alone. It will involve about 155 adults newly diagnosed with this type of blood cancer. The main goal is to see if the combination leads to a deeper reduction of leukemia cells in the blood within the first year of treatment.
