New method aims to protect babies from harsh chemo side effects

NCT ID NCT05359237

Summary

This study is testing a new way to calculate the dose of the cancer drug vincristine for infants and very young children. The goal is to give them drug levels in their blood that are similar to older children, who use a standard dosing method, while trying to reduce severe side effects. Researchers are comparing the two methods by measuring drug levels in the blood of children up to age 12 who are being treated for cancer.
