HM2024-29: Phase I/II Clinical Trial of Proteasome Inhibitor in Combination with CPX-351 for the Treatment of Newly-Diagnosed TP53-mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
This study is meant for participants who have been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and have a specific mutation in a gene called TP53.

Phase I Study of Peptide Alarm Therapy (PAT) Administered by Intratumoral Injection with a PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor in Patients with Solid Tumor Cancers Who Have Failed Two Prior Therapies
This study is testing an “investigational” drug referred to as peptide alarm therapy (PAT) that was specially made for this study.
