NCT ID NCT03630991
First seen Mar 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether two metal-removing drugs (edetate calcium disodium and succimer) are safe and can help control acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) when given alongside chemotherapy. About 58 adults with these blood cancers will receive the drugs to lower metal levels in their bone marrow and blood. The goal is to see if this approach reduces side effects or improves how well chemotherapy works.
