New drug trial aims to better control aggressive blood cancer

NCT ID NCT07033598

Summary

This study is testing whether a newer drug called pacritinib works better than the standard drug hydroxyurea for adults with an advanced, fast-growing type of blood cancer called chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. About 66 participants will be randomly assigned to take one of the two drugs for up to 48 weeks. Researchers will compare which drug is more effective at controlling the disease and has fewer side effects.
