First seen Feb 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study tested a drug called inotuzumab ozogamicin in children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) that still had small amounts of cancer cells after standard treatment. The goal was to see if the drug could wipe out those leftover cells. Only 5 children took part before the study was stopped early, so we don't have clear answers on how well it works.
