Leukaemia
Status:
Closed to Recruitment
This study will investigate the effectiveness of the introduction of a new drug Blinotumomab to the standard treatment for infants diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Blinotumomab attaches to the cancer cells, causing them to break down and die. Infants will be given the standard chemotherapy treatment for the first month, followed by an additional month of continuous treatment with Blinotumomab. This will require an extra period of hospitalisation.
