Can leukemia patients stop their meds? trial tests 'Drug Holiday' for stable remission

NCT ID NCT04626024

Summary

This study is testing whether some patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who have been in a stable, deep remission for years can safely stop their daily medication. Researchers want to see if these patients can remain cancer-free without treatment, which would spare them from long-term side effects and high costs. The trial will monitor 100 adults who meet strict remission criteria to see how many stay in remission after stopping their pills.
