New hope for tough childhood cancers: drug trial after transplant

NCT ID NCT03465592

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called nivolumab can be safely given after a half-matched bone marrow transplant to help prevent cancer from coming back. It involves children and young adults up to age 50 who have high-risk, recurrent, or hard-to-treat sarcomas and have already had this specific type of transplant. Researchers want to see if this approach can help the body's immune system better fight the cancer and improve survival.
