Cancer-Fighting antibiotic trial targets precancerous blood cells

NCT ID NCT07209371

Summary

This study is testing whether a short course of the antibiotic rifaximin can reduce abnormal blood protein levels in people with IgA MGUS, a condition that can sometimes turn into cancer. Fifty adults with IgA MGUS will be randomly assigned to either take the antibiotic pills for two weeks or receive no treatment, with regular blood tests to monitor results. The goal is to see if the drug can kill or reduce the precancerous cells and potentially lower the future risk of cancer.
