Summary

This study tested a new form of chemotherapy called CPX-351 in 56 adults with a fast-growing blood cancer (acute myeloid leukemia) who were unlikely to respond to standard treatment. The drug combines two older chemo drugs inside a tiny fat bubble to help them work better together. The goal was to see how well it could put the cancer into remission and what side effects it caused.
