New hope for tough leukemia in younger patients

NCT ID NCT04269213

Summary

This study is testing how well a chemotherapy drug called CPX-351 works for adults under 60 with secondary acute myeloid leukemia, a type of blood cancer that develops from other blood disorders or previous cancer treatments. The goal is to see if this drug can help patients achieve remission and potentially proceed to a stem cell transplant. Researchers will measure how many patients respond to treatment, how long the response lasts, survival rates, and side effects.
