New combo therapy shows promise for rare blood cancers
NCT ID NCT07318662
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether adding venetoclax to standard chemotherapy (HMAs) works better than chemotherapy alone for people newly diagnosed with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). About 224 adults are being observed to see how many respond to treatment and how long they live. The goal is to find a more effective way to control these blood cancers.
