Gamunex for Blood Cancer Patients With Low Antibodies
This trial tests whether Gamunex, an antibody replacement therapy, helps patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, multiple myeloma, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma who have low immunoglobulin (antibody) levels. The treatment may reduce infections and improve how well the body fights disease.

You stay in control
