New treatment option for B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Official title Inotuzumab Ozogamicin and Post-Induction Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With High-Risk B-ALL, Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia, and B-LLy
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03959085
What this study is testing
What is Blinatumomab?
Blinatumomab is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for b acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Also referred to as AMG 103, AMG-103.
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
- This phase III trial studies whether inotuzumab ozogamicin added to post-induction chemotherapy and immunotherapy (chemo-immunotherapy) for patients with High-Risk B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) improves outcomes. Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, which is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets on the surface of cells.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Time commitment: about 2 years
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
