New treatment option for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Official title Tagraxofusp and Azacitidine With Venetoclax in Newly Diagnosed Secondary AML After Hypomethylating Agents
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05442216
What this study is testing
What is Tagraxofusp?
Tagraxofusp is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for acute myeloid leukemia.
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
- A treatment cycle is 28 days. Tagraxofusp will be administered at 9 mcg/kg IV over 15 minutes (-5 or +15 minutes) daily for 3 consecutive days (or 3 doses over a period not to exceed 10 days if postponement is required to allow for toxicity resolution), followed by azacitidine administered at 75 mg/m2 SQ or IV daily on Day 4 through Day 10.
- 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.
