New cocktail of drugs hopes to beat childhood leukemia that Won't quit

NCT ID NCT05751044

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests a combination of dasatinib, venetoclax, and chemotherapy in children and young adults with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL). The study has two phases: first to find the safest dose, then to see how well it shrinks tumors or clears leukemia cells from the bone marrow. Only 26 participants will be enrolled, and all have tumors with specific genetic changes in the MAPK/SRC pathway.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

dasatinib, venetoclax, dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide, cytarabine

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for children with hard-to-treat blood cancers that have returned or not responded to standard therapy.

What could go wrong

This is an early-phase trial with only 26 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug combination can cause serious side effects, and it is not yet known if it will improve survival.
