Recruiting PHASE2 Chronic Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

New treatment option for Chronic Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia

Official title ASTX727 and Dasatinib for the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome or BCR-ABL Positive Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Chronic Phase

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05007873

What this study is testing

What is Dasatinib?

Dasatinib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Also referred to as BMS-354825, Dasatinib Hydrate.

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 II trial studies the effect of ASTX727 and dasatinib in treating patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome or BCR-ABL positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase. Philadelphia chromosome positive and BCR-ABL positive are types of genetic mutations (changes).
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Time commitment: about 3 years

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
