Filter by:This study is sponsored by Genzyme Japan K.K. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Clofarabine (JC0707) intravenously administered to Japanese adult patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) at 20, 30, and 40 mg/m2/day on a 5-day dose schedule.
The current understanding of PR104 justifies the evaluation of PR104 in subjects with relapsed/refractory AML and ALL. These include: - Hypoxia. Leukemic bone marrow is likely to demonstrate a level of hypoxia sufficient to activate PR104 to its active metabolites PR104H and PR104M. - Myelotoxicity as the primary toxicity at MTD. In prior clinical studies in subjects with solid tumors PR104 has demonstrated myelotoxicity as the primary toxicity. This observation suggests that PR104 will exert a similar effect on leukemic cells. - AKR1C3. AML has been reported to exhibit high levels of AKR1C3 which should lead to selective activation of PR104 within both hypoxic and oxic leukemic cells. - Preclinical data. PR104 has demonstrated impressive activity in an initial study using primary human ALL in a mouse model. The initial dose finding phase of the study will provide estimates of the activity and toxicity of PR104 in subjects with refractory/relapsed AML, and determine the optimal individualized dose to give each subject based on his/her covariates (prior CR duration, prior number of salvage therapies, age). Once a potentially beneficial dose has been determined, an expanded cohort of subjects with AML or ALL will receive PR104 at a uniform dose. This information will prove valuable in defining the future clinical development of PR104, and in determining if PR104 has sufficient activity and acceptable safety in AML to warrant future phase II or phase III studies in this indication. Primary objectives - Determine the toxicities and recommended dose of PR104 when administered IV to subjects with relapsed/refractory AML and ALL. Secondary objectives - Evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of PR104 and a series of PR104 metabolites - Evaluate any anti-tumor effects of PR104 - Evaluate the expression of AKR1C3 in bone marrow and leukemic cells - Evaluate potential biomarkers of hypoxia
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of 3 drug schedules in preventing chemotherapy-related nausea and/or vomiting in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AlloSCT) followed by targeted immune therapy Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)/juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML)/myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) will be safe and well tolerated.
Hypothesis: Combined treatment with valproic acid and ATRA can be used to achieve disease stabilization for a subset of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and this effect can be improved without serious toxicity by adding low-dose cytarabine to this treatment. Adult patients >18 years of age who can be included: Elderly patients who cannot achieve standard chemotherapy, patients with relapsed or resistant AML. Treatment: Combined therapy with: Valproic acid, continuous therapy until disease progression ATRA, oral therapy for 14 days every three months Low-dose cytarabine 10 mg/m2 up to 10 injections during week 2 and 3, repeated every 3 months.
Primary objectives: - To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SAR103168 and to characterize the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in the proposed dose regimen - To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of SAR103168 Secondary objectives: - To characterize the global safety profile of SAR103168 - To evaluate preliminary anti-leukemia activity - To investigate the potential induction effect on CYP3A4 and persistence of this effect by using oral midazolam as a probe substrate in patients enrolled into the expanded cohort at the MTD - To determine the metabolic pathways of SAR103168 and identify the chemical structures of metabolites - To determine the potential impact of SAR103168 on the QTc interval in patients enrolled at the MTD
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) of the medication basiliximab in combination with cyclosporine (investigational therapy) for the prevention of a complication of bone marrow transplantation known as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). GVHD is a complication in which the cells of the transplanted bone marrow react against organs and tissues.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving 5-aza-2 deoxycytidine (decitabine) in combination with Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin) can help to control AML or high-risk MDS. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether treatment with cenersen in combination with 4 cycles of high and low-dose chemotherapy (idarubicin and cytarabine) improves the complete response rate in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients ≥ 55 years of age who did not show a response (CR, CRi, or PR) to a single aggressive frontline induction course.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of receiving a combination of ondansetron and aprepitant to receiving ondansetron alone in helping to prevent nausea and/or vomiting in patients with Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who are receiving cytarabine. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
