Targeted attack on cancer cells during transplant shows promise

NCT ID NCT03856216

Summary

This study tested whether adding a targeted drug called inotuzumab ozogamicin to a stem cell transplant regimen could better control leukemia and lymphoma. The drug is designed to seek out and kill cancer cells that have a specific marker (CD22). Researchers enrolled 15 patients with certain blood cancers to assess the safety of giving this drug both before and after the transplant. The study was terminated early, and participants needed to take anti-rejection medications for about six months after the procedure.
