Small study aims to personalize drug dosing for young cancer patients

NCT ID NCT06383338

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how young people (ages 6-25) with Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma process certain medications. Researchers will give tiny, non-therapeutic doses of two common drugs (omeprazole and dextromethorphan) and measure how they are broken down in the body. The goal is to see if this approach is acceptable and feasible, which could lead to more personalized medicine in the future.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Omeprazole and dextromethorphan (probe drugs to measure metabolism)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could pave the way for more personalized dosing of cancer and supportive care drugs in children and young adults with lymphoma.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 10 participants. It is not designed to test treatment effectiveness, only whether the study procedures are acceptable and doable.
