NCT ID NCT06969430
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This early-phase trial is testing a new drug called Debio 1562M in about 134 people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or not responded to other treatments. The study first checks safety and finds the right dose, then looks at whether the drug can shrink the cancer. It's an open-label trial, meaning everyone knows they are getting the experimental drug.

- Active substance
- Debio 1562M (a drug given by IV infusion)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with hard-to-treat acute myeloid leukemia.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, first-in-human trial, so safety and effectiveness are not yet known. It may not work or could cause serious side effects.
