ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at a new treatment called KQB198 for adults with advanced blood cancers, known as hematologic malignancies. The main goals are to find out how safe KQB198 is, what the best dose is, and whether it can help shrink tumors either on its own or when combined with other cancer drugs. Participants in the trial will take KQB198 daily and will need to visit the clinic about eight times in the first two months, with less frequent visits afterward.
To be eligible for this trial, participants should have enough healthy organ function and specific types of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that have not responded well to previous treatments. Certain health conditions, like severe lung or heart issues, or prior treatments similar to KQB198, may prevent someone from joining. This trial is currently recruiting participants, and it's important for those interested to discuss their individual health conditions with their doctor to see if they qualify.
