New treatment option for Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Official title Randomized Trial in Adult de Novo Ph Positive ALL With Chemotherapy, Imatinib or Ponatinib, Blinatumomab and SCT
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06061094
What this study is testing
What is Imatinib?
Imatinib is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic 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
- The current Standard of Care (SoC) in younger patients with Ph+ ALL is Imatinib in combination with low-dose chemotherapy, change of TKI in case of persistent MRD above 10-3 after consolidation I and indication for stem cell transplantation. The EVOLVE trial aims to answer three questions challenging the current SoC: Use of Ponatinib compared to Imatinib both in combination with low-dose chemotherapy and consolidation I (randomization I).
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
