Clinical Trials for Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

Because current standard chemotherapy programs only cure a minority of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), almost all patients are encouraged to apply for entry into a clinical trial.

Clinical trials are carefully crafted studies testing the effectiveness of new experimental treatments for diseases like AML. These trials usually recruit anywhere from 20 to 100 or more participants for studies that may last for several months or years. AML Clinical trials for chemotherapy, stem cell / bone marrow transplantation, immunotherapy, and other experimental techniques can be found in almost every state in America.

It is important to look for age, gender, and prior treatment requirements when you are searching for a clinical trial to join. Participating in a clinical trial is one way of minimizing the costs of AML treatment and one way of giving back to your community.
