New hope for lymphoma patients after chemo fails

NCT ID NCT02588651

Summary

This study tested whether the drug brentuximab vedotin could help control T-cell lymphoma that had returned or stopped responding to previous chemotherapy. The trial enrolled 23 patients whose cancer cells had low levels of a specific target called CD30. Researchers wanted to see if this targeted drug could shrink tumors and extend patients' lives even with low target levels.
