Personalized chemo dose could reduce side effects in lymphoma transplant patients

NCT ID NCT05540340

Summary

This study is testing a new, personalized way to calculate the dose of melphalan chemotherapy given to lymphoma patients before a stem cell transplant. Instead of using a standard dose based on height and weight, researchers are using a mathematical model to calculate an optimal dose for each person. They hope this personalized approach will be just as effective at treating the cancer but cause fewer side effects than the standard method.
