Official title Phase Ib/II Trial of Cladribine/Ruxolitinib/Venetoclax in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory T-cell Prolymphocytic Leukemia
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07311746
What this study is testing

- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of ruxolitinib with cladribine and venetoclax can help to control the disease in patients with R/R T-PLL.
- 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.
