NCT01820624 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of tretinoin when given together with lithium carbonate in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Lithium carbonate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Tretinoin may help \[type of cancer\] cells become more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly. Giving lithium carbonate together with tretinoin may kill more cancer cells
