Study tests transplant vs. pills for Tough-to-Treat blood cancer

NCT ID NCT01745588

Summary

This study aimed to find the best way to use the drug pomalidomide for patients whose multiple myeloma has returned or stopped responding to treatment. It compared two approaches: a stem cell transplant followed by the drug, versus staying on a three-drug combination. The goal was to see which method better controlled the cancer and for how long.
