ASH 2025 | The PedAL master trial and sub-studies: accelerating drug development in pediatric acute leukemias

In this interview, Gwen Nichols, MD, Blood Cancer United, Washington, DC, provides insight into the Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) master trial (NCT04726241) and sub-studies, which aim to accelerate pediatric drug development in acute leukemias to address the need for a greater number of effective treatment options in this patient population. Dr Nichols highlights that the screening trial has enabled over 500 pediatric patients to receive free molecular sequencing, and two sub-trials are currently underway: a large international randomized trial of standard relapse therapy with or without venetoclax, and a trial investigating the menin inhibitor ziftomenib. This interview took place at the 67th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in Orlando, FL.
