Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of edetate calcium disodium or succimer in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome undergoing chemotherapy. Edetate calcium disodium or succimer may help to lower the level of metals found in the bone marrow and blood and may help to control the disease and/or improve response to chemotherapy.
This phase I/II trial studies how well cytokine-treated veto cells work in treating patients with hematologic malignancies following stem cell transplant. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer 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. Cytokine-treated veto cells may help the transplanted donor cells to develop and grow in recipients without causing graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD - when transplanted donor tissue attacks the tissues of the recipient's body).
This study will evaluate the efficacy of uproleselan (GMI-1271), a specific E-selectin antagonist, in combination with chemotherapy to treat relapsed/refractory AML, compared to chemotherapy alone. The safety of uproleselan when given with chemotherapy will also be investigated in patients with relapsed/refractory AML
Recent preclinical and clinical data strongly suggested that dexamethasone could improve the activity of intensive chemotherapy in AML. In this study, the FILO study group will assess the impact of adding dexamethasone to both induction and consolidation therapy in older AML patients with intermediate or favorable risk.
This is a multicenter, open-label extension study for participants who participated in a previous Astex-sponsored guadecitabine clinical study [including but not limited to SGI-110-01 (NCT01261312), SGI-110-04 (NCT02348489), SGI-110-06 (NCT02920008), and SGI-110-07 (NCT02907359)].
Phase II randomized placebo-controlled study to assess the impact on outcome of Eltrombopag administered to elderly patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) receiving induction chemotherapy. A phase II multicenter and randomized placebo-controlled study
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) is a curative option for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, transplantation related toxicity and mortality as well as the existence of HLA identical sibling donor represent major limitations. Over the 20 past years, the development of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen and the use of alternative donors allowed extending the possibility of Allo-HSCT for AML, with decreased toxicity and mortality. This invited to propose this strategy to more advanced patients, making that AML recurrence has become one of the main issues after Allo-HSCT. Thus, to develop prophylactic and preemptive strategies to minimize disease recurrence after Allo-HSCT is now the main challenge in the field. Among cellular and/or pharmacological treatments after Allo-HSCT, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) is probably one of the most commonly used treatments after Allo-HSCT. Indeed, DLI were reported as a potential efficient immunotherapy more than 20 years ago for the treatment of patients with leukemia relapsing after Allo-HSCT. However, most of experiences were reported in the setting of relapse after Allo-HSCT and no prospective evaluation of prophylactic DLI is available so far. Thus no strong recommendation for the use of DLI after Allo-HSCT can be made. Our study proposal would like to assess the question of prophylactic DLI efficacy, as a proof of concept of early immune intervention after Allo-HSCT. The investigators, therefore, designed a prospective multicenter randomized trial evaluating the impact of early DLI on outcome after Allo-HSCT for AML.
This faisability study aims to evaluate the adhesion of the patient to a multidisciplinary program (adapted physical activity, coaching and nutrition)
Infections are a major life-threatening complication in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Currently there is no guidelines about antibacterial prophylaxis to prevent infections in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukaemia. The investigators will conduct a randomized prospective study to evaluate the benefit of prophylactic antibacterial by levofloxacin on febrile episode in Azacytidine treated patients (MDS and AML).
This phase II trial studies how well dexrazoxane hydrochloride works in preventing heart-related side effects of chemotherapy in participants with blood cancers, such as acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myeloid leukemia, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. Chemoprotective drugs, such as dexrazoxane hydrochloride, may protect the heart from the side effects of drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine, idarubicin, cytarabine, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin, in participants with blood cancers.
