Scientists test drug duo to tame rare blood cancer

NCT ID NCT03069326

Summary

This study is testing whether adding the drug thalidomide to the standard drug ruxolitinib works better for people with myelofibrosis, a rare bone marrow cancer. It aims to see if the combination can shrink the cancer and improve problems like anemia, enlarged spleen, and other symptoms. The trial is for adults whose disease isn't responding well enough to ruxolitinib alone.
