Filter by:The purpose of the clinical trial is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of SEL24/MEN1703 and to further investigate its safety profile in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to compare relapse-free survival between participants with FLT3/ITD AML in first morphologic complete remission (CR1) who undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) and are randomized to receive gilteritinib or placebo beginning after the time of engraftment for a two year period.
The investigators hypothesize that CX-01 will disrupt the bone marrow microenvironment and increase the cytotoxic effects of azacitidine on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) hematopoietic stem cells by disrupting the High-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) interaction with toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), the CXC chemokine CXCL12/chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) axis, and by disrupting other leukocyte and vascular adhesion molecules. In addition, CX-01 may also help promote count recovery after treatment given its affinity for platelet factor-4 (PF4). The selection of CX-01 dose for study in relapsed or refractory MDS and AML has been based upon the dual requirements to have sufficient drug administered to have potential activity but without clinically significant anticoagulation. The study dose chosen (4 mg/kg bolus followed by 0.25 mg/kg/hour) fulfills both of these criteria. In addition, this dose is expected to result in serum levels of CX-01 which are significantly higher than the IC90 identified in preclinical studies for inhibition of HMGB1-RAGE, toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4 interaction. Therefore, the chosen dose represents a rational balance between effective dosing and safety in thrombocytopenic patients with MDS and AML. This dose was previously established to be safe and tolerable when combined with cytarabine and idarubicin in patients with AML.
This pilot study has been designed to investigate the safety of pembrolizumab treatment for disease relapse following allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT). Pembrolizumab will be administered at a fixed dose of 200 mg IV every 3 weeks. Approximately 12-26 patients with relapsed MDS, AML, or mature B cell (B-NHL, cHL) malignancies that have relapsed following alloSCT will be enrolled on this trial. Pembrolizumab treatment will be administered for up to 24 months, provided that neither disease progression, nor development of a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), has occurred. Adverse events will be monitored every three weeks throughout the trial and graded in severity according to the guidelines outlined in the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. This trial will be conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practices.
This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects of cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride and to see how well they work in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading, and may be safer for the heart.
This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects of engineered donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft-versus-host disease). Using T cells specially selected from donor blood in the laboratory for transplant may stop this from happening.
The human microbiome is composed of unique groups of microorganisms occupying distinct habitats distributed throughout the human body. The Human Microbiome Project recently evaluated the bacterial composition of the microbiome in 18 (for women) and 15 (for men) body sites. Much initial attention in the field of microbiome research has focused on the bacterial contribution to a "healthy" microbiome. However, it is clear that other microorganisms, including fungi and viruses, are also distributed throughout the human body and serve as functional components of the microbiome. The populations of microorganisms residing within the oral and nasal cavities make important contributions to human health and disease. These contributions may be especially important in immunosuppressed patients, including those patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy or undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In these patients, organisms typically considered as commensals can become pathogenic, either locally or systemically. This observational study is primarily undertaken to evaluate the oral and nasal microbiota and to define the population of fungal organisms residing within the oral and nasal cavities in pediatric oncology patients before and after receiving protocol-directed chemotherapy and associated supportive care.
Acute myeloid leukemia with t(8;21) /AML1-ETO-positive (AE AML) is a heterogeneous disease entailing different prognoses. There were significant differences in the therapeutic effect between different subgroups of AE AML. Therefore, risk stratification-directed therapy is very necessary for AE AML.
In this study, DNA sequencing, computational biology modeling, and ex vivo drug sensitivity assays will be utilized to define clinically relevant gene mutations and identify potential therapeutics for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study of guadecitabine vs treatment choice (TC). Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either guadecitabine or TC. TC options include the 8 high or low intensity, locally available regimens below; or Best supportive Care (BSC) alone: - High intensity (intermediate or high dose cytarabine [HiDAC]; mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine [MEC]; or fludarabine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony stimulating factor [G-CSF], +/- idarubicin [FLAG/FLAG-Ida]). - Low intensity (low dose cytarabine [LDAC], decitabine, or azacitidine). - BSC.
