Shielding hearts from Chemo's toxic blow in blood cancer battle

NCT ID NCT03589729

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called dexrazoxane can protect the heart from damage caused by powerful chemotherapy used to treat aggressive blood cancers like acute myeloid leukemia. It will enroll 100 patients with these cancers who are receiving a specific combination of chemotherapy drugs. The main goal is to see if adding dexrazoxane reduces the number of patients whose heart function drops significantly during the first six months of treatment.
