New hope for Tough-to-Treat blood cancer? scientists test promising drug

NCT ID NCT02302469

Summary

This study aimed to find a safe and effective dose of the drug lenalidomide for adults with Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, a rare and incurable blood cancer, whose disease had returned or was not responding to other therapies. It involved a small group of 17 participants to first test safety and then see if the drug could help control the cancer. The goal was to manage the disease, not cure it, by identifying a dose that patients could tolerate while still fighting the cancer.
