New drug boosts stem cell harvest for cancer transplant

NCT ID NCT03246529

Summary

This study tested if adding an experimental drug called BL-8040 to the standard medication (G-CSF) helps collect more stem cells from patients with multiple myeloma. The goal is to gather enough healthy stem cells for a patient's own transplant (autologous transplant), a key part of treatment. Researchers compared the combination of BL-8040 and G-CSF against G-CSF with a placebo in 122 participants.
