New drug combo tested for Tough-to-Treat blood cancers

NCT ID NCT00776373

Summary

This early-phase study tested whether adding the drug rapamycin to a standard high-dose chemotherapy regimen (HiVAC) was safe and effective for adults with aggressive blood cancers that had returned or stopped responding to previous treatments. The goal was to see if this combination could better control these difficult cancers. The study was terminated early after enrolling only four participants.
