New pill targets Leukemia's weak spot in frail patients

NCT ID NCT06930352

Summary

This study is testing an oral medication called ziftomenib for adults with a specific type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not healthy enough for standard intensive chemotherapy. The drug works by blocking a specific pathway (the menin pathway) that these leukemia cells need to grow. Researchers want to see if taking this pill daily can put the cancer into remission and improve quality of life for these patients.
