New treatment option for Refractory and/or Relapsed Metastatic Solid Tumors
Official title Reduced Intensity Haploidentical BMT for High Risk Solid Tumors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT01804634
What this study is testing
What is Cyclophosphamide?
Cyclophosphamide is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for refractory and/or relapsed metastatic solid tumors.
Also referred to as cytoxan.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The purpose of this study is to see if giving reduced intensity chemotherapy, haploidentical bone marrow, post-transplant cyclophosphamide and shortened duration tacrolimus is safe and feasible for patients with very high-risk solid tumors.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
