New radiation technique tested in fight against relapsed blood cancers

NCT ID NCT02333162

Summary

This study is testing a new, more targeted form of radiation to the bone marrow (called IMTMI) given with two chemotherapy drugs before a second stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and can better prepare patients with advanced blood cancers (like leukemia) that have come back after treatment. Researchers want to find the best dose of the new radiation to help control the cancer and allow the donor's stem cells to grow.
