Filter by:This is a phase 1b, dose escalation, study of quizartinib to evaluate the safety profile, the pharmacokinetics, and the recommended dose of quizartinib for subsequent clinical studies of the combination of quizartinib and induction and consolidation chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to see whether HLA-mismatched donor cells infusion with chemotherapy (microtransplantation，MST) could increase complete remission (CR) and improve survival in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)，the investigators conducted a prospective, multicenter clinical trial of HLA-mismatched MST to estimate outcomes and toxicities.
Relapsed acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) requires remission prior to allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) for optimal survival, but is a disease with poor response to chemotherapy. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haploidentical, Natural killer (NK) enriched peripheral blood cell infusions have shown safety in patients with poor prognosis AML. Though not powered for such an assessment, this trial showed a promising but not statistically significant trend in remission rate. NK cell therapy was limited by small numbers of NK cells attainable through leukapheresis. We have now demonstrated that large numbers of NK cells can be propagated ex vivo from a small volume blood draw, obviating the need for donor leukapheresis. The purpose of this trial is to determine the feasibility and maximum tolerated dose of expanded NK cells and estimate the toxicity of treating relapsed/refractory AML with fludarabine + high-dose cytarabine + G-CSF (FLAG) chemotherapy followed by haploidentical expanded natural killer (NK) cells. The first NK cell dosing cohort will be well below the currently-established safe dose of pheresis-derived NK cells, as expanded NK cells may have increased toxicity because of their activated phenotype. In order to avoid accruing patients at suboptimal doses, a dose escalation schema based on the principles of an accelerated titration design is used in this study to allow expeditious advancement up to the current safe dose of NK cells.
The purpose of this study is to determine the activity of tamibarotene in participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML (administered as a monotherapy or in combination with azacitidine), R/R higher-risk MDS (HR-MDS) (administered as a monotherapy or in combination with daratumumab), newly diagnosed treatment naïve AML participants who are unlikely to tolerate standard intensive chemotherapy (administered as a monotherapy or in combination with azacitidine), or lower-risk MDS (LR-MDS) (administered as a monotherapy).
Several groups have demonstrated very low incidence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in haploidentical, unrelated and related allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Nonetheless for majority of the grafts, except for 10/10 HLA-matched bone marrow, with this type of prophylaxis require concomitant administration of calcineurin inhibitors±MMF, which delays immune reconstitution and development of graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect. So, despite reduction of transplant-related mortality, use of PTCy doesn't lead to the reduction of relapse incidence. This is particularly important for relapsed or refractory acute leukemia patients, where, despite all efforts to intensify conditioning regimens, relapses after SCT occur in more than 50% of patients, and long-term survival rarely exceeds 10-20%. In preclinical model of haploidentical SCT the substitution of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide with bendamustine, led to comparable GVHD control, but significantly augmented GVL effect. To test this hypothesis and improve the outcome of allogeneic SCT in refractory acute leukemia patients we initiated a pilot trial with high-dose post-transplantation bendamustine for GVHD prophylaxis. The selection of doses is based on the previous dose-escalation studies. Additional immunosuppression could be added for mismatched grafts.
This is a first in human, prospective, multicentric, nonrandomized, open-label study to investigate the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of the Fc-optimized antibody FLYSYN as monotherapy in adult subjects.
The purpose of this study in AML patients is to test whether vadastuximab talirine (SGN-CD33A; 33A) combined with either azacitidine or decitabine improves remission rates and extends overall survival as compared to placebo combined with either azacitidine or decitabine.
This is a standard phase 2 study powered to demonstrate improvement in the 100 day leukemia free survival to 30% from <10% expected with the use of reduced intensity haplo-HCT in this extremely high-risk patient cohort (based on the institutional experience using non-myeloablative / reduced intensity conditioning in a similar patient cohort). A formal safety evaluation will be done after every 6th patient enrolled and the trial will be stopped if noted to have unusually higher engraftment failure (acute GVHD rates (>60% any grades or >30% grade III/IV or ≥ 50% severe cGVHD) or engraftment failure rates (≥15%).
This phase IB trial studies the feasibility of using a functional laboratory based study to determine how well the test can be used to select personalized kinase inhibitor therapy in combination with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It also evaluates safety and potential efficacy. Kinase inhibitor is a type of substance that blocks an enzyme called a kinase. Human cells have many different kinase enzymes, and they help control important cell functions. Certain kinases are more active in some types of cancer cells and blocking them may help keep the cancer cells from growing. Testing samples of blood from patients with AML and ALL in the laboratory with kinase inhibitors may help determine which kinase inhibitor has more activity against cancer cells and which one should be combined with standard of care chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy 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. Giving a personalized kinase inhibitor therapy combined with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for AML and ALL.
Treatment for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) involves intensive chemotherapy regimens that result in periods of profound neutropenia leaving patients susceptible to severe infectious complications. Infectious complications are the leading cause of treatment related mortality among AML patients, but there are little clinical data to inform whether management of neutropenia post AML chemotherapy should occur in an outpatient or inpatient setting. The primary objective of this study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of outpatient versus inpatient management of neutropenia in children with AML.
