New hope for keeping rare blood disease in check after initial treatment

NCT ID NCT03618537

Summary

This study is testing whether a maintenance therapy with the drug Ixazomib can help control AL amyloidosis and prevent it from coming back after patients have already responded to their first treatment. It involves 17 adults who have achieved at least a partial response to their initial therapy. The main goal is to see if this ongoing treatment can extend the time patients live without their disease getting worse.
