Targeted missile drug aims to wipe out last traces of leukemia

NCT ID NCT03441061

Summary

This study is testing a targeted drug called inotuzumab ozogamicin for adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who are in remission but still have tiny amounts of cancer cells detectable by sensitive tests. The drug is designed to seek out and destroy these remaining leukemia cells specifically. The main goal is to see if this treatment can prevent the cancer from coming back and improve how long patients live without relapse.
