CPX-351 for the Treatment of Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Patients Younger than 60 Years Old

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial studies how well liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin-cytarabine (CPX-351) works in treating patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia who are younger than 60 years old. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
