Filter by:The goal of the Phase I part of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of bendamustine that can be given to patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), Chronic myelogenous (or myeloid) leukemia (CML) in blastic phase, Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML), and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The goal of the Phase II part of this clinical research study is to learn if bendamustine can help to control AML, ALL and MDS. The safety of this drug will continue to be studied.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor natural killer (NK) cell therapy and to see how well it works when given together with fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, total-body irradiation, donor bone marrow transplant, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus in treating patients with hematologic cancer. Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) may help the patient's immune system see any remaining cancer cells as not belonging in the patient's body and destroy them (called graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus after the transplant may stop this from happening.
The study investigates if CPX-351 will be a) more effective than the standard AML treatment and b) more tolerable than the standard AML treatment regimens. The study compares the investigational product CPX-351 vs the standard treatment for AML in this patients age group.
In this study safety and tolerability of two dose levels of SU 11248 (sutent) with standard chemotherapy in patients with FLT3 mutated AML over 60 years will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tosedostat in elderly patients suffering from refractory or relapsed AML.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if clofarabine given in combination with cytarabine and decitabine can help to control the disease in patients with AML or MDS who are 60 years old or older. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a particular combination of drugs used to treat cancer.
A study comparing conventional chemotherapy to low dose total body irradiation-based conditioning and hematopoietic cell transplantation from related and unrelated donors as consolidation therapy for older Patients with AML in first Complete Remission.
This study will test an experimental combination of the drugs Mylotarg and 5-azacitidine in the hopes of finding a treatment that may be effective against Acute Myeloid Leukemia that has come back after treatment.
Fatigue is the most common and disabling symptom in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Studies in other cancer patients with fatigue have shown that exercise improves both fatigue and quality of life (QOL), but there are no such studies in AML. The investigators want to conduct a pilot study of a home-based exercise program to see if this type of exercise program is feasible for AML patients, reduces fatigue, and improves QOL. What the investigators learn from this study will be essential to designing a larger, definitive randomized trial of exercise in patients with AML.
