Prevention study for DLBCL - Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma
Official title Prevention of Anthracycline-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction With Dexrazoxane in Patients With Diffuse Large-B Cell Lymphoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06220032
What this study is testing
What is Dexrazoxane?
Dexrazoxane is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for dlbcl - diffuse large b cell lymphoma.
Also referred to as Cardioxane.
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
- Patients treated for DLBCL are at high risk of developing AICD. This adverse event is characterized by irreversible damage to the heart muscle with a loss of cardiomyocytes and subsequent decline in cardiac pumping capacity.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
