New treatment option for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Official title Bleximenib in Combination With Standard Induction and Consolidation Therapy Followed by Maintenance for Treatment of Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07223814
What this study is testing
What is Bleximenib?
Bleximenib is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, 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
- The current standard of care treatment for adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consists of chemotherapy and, if indicated, donor stem cell transplantation. Bleximenib blocks the interaction between a protein called menin and another protein called KMT2A in the leukemia cells.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
