Summary
This study tests a personalized vaccine made from a patient's own leukemia cells and immune cells. The goal is to train the immune system to recognize and destroy any remaining cancer cells after chemotherapy, helping to prevent the leukemia from returning. The trial involves 82 adults aged 55 and older with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are in remission. Half receive the vaccine, and half are simply observed.
