New antibiotic shield for kids battling leukemia

NCT ID NCT06810583

Summary

This study is testing whether a long-acting antibiotic called dalbavancin, given every 28 days, can prevent serious bloodstream infections in children and young adults with high-risk leukemia who are receiving intense chemotherapy. The trial will enroll up to 29 participants to see how well the body processes the drug and how safe and acceptable this preventive approach is. The main goal is to see if this method lowers the rate of dangerous bacterial infections compared to older prevention strategies.
