What phase is Talacotuzumab in?

Talacotuzumab is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. Two Phase 2 trials have been completed, one in acute myeloid leukemia and one in myelodysplastic syndromes.

What clinical trials is Talacotuzumab in?

Talacotuzumab has been studied in two completed Phase 2 trials. NCT02472145 evaluated decitabine plus talacotuzumab versus decitabine alone in 326 adults aged 65 and older with acute myeloid leukemia. NCT03011034 evaluated talacotuzumab or daratumumab in 34 adults with myelodysplastic syndromes.

Is Talacotuzumab the same as JNJ-56022473?

Yes, Talacotuzumab is also known as JNJ-56022473. Both names refer to the same investigational drug, and the clinical trials use the JNJ-56022473 designation in their titles.
