New drug cocktail trial targets rare blood cancer

NCT ID NCT04624906

Summary

This study is testing a combination of three drugs for people newly diagnosed with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, a rare type of blood cancer. Participants receive standard chemotherapy (bendamustine and rituximab) for six months, plus a newer pill called acalabrutinib for one year. The main goal is to see how well this combination controls the cancer and leads to deep responses.
