New treatment option for Lymphoid Malignancies
Official title The OPAL Study: AVM0703 for Treatment of Lymphoid Malignancies
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04329728
What this study is testing
What is AVM0703?
AVM0703 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for lymphoid malignancies.
Also referred to as Supra-Pharmacologic Dexamethasone Phosphate.
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 is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics(PK), and preliminary antitumor activity of AVM0703 administered as a single intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with lymphoid malignancies.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Time commitment: about 4 weeks
