Radioactive antibody targets stubborn MDS cells in early trial
NCT ID NCT06888323
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This early-phase trial is testing a new drug called lintuzumab-Ac225 for people with a type of blood cancer called myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that hasn't responded to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody that seeks out cancer cells and delivers a small dose of radiation directly to them. The study will enroll 30 participants to find the safest dose and see if it can shrink or control the disease.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Lintuzumab-Ac225 (a monoclonal antibody linked to a radioactive particle)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for patients with high-risk MDS that hasn't responded to standard therapy.
What could go wrong
This is a very early (Phase 1) trial with only 30 participants, so it's primarily testing safety and dosing. It may not prove effective, and the radioactive component carries risks like bone marrow suppression.
