Filter by:Drugs used in chemotherapy such as CCI-779 work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myelogenous leukemia in blastic phase
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of different doses of epoetin alfa for treating anemia in patients who have cancer; or patients who no longer have any signs of cancer, but remain anemic as a result of their treatment. These patients should not be currently receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy. A subject's participation in the study will last approximately 6 months. Subjects will receive weekly doses of epoetin alfa or placebo. Their hemoglobin will be tested every week.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of epoetin alfa in treating anemia in patients who have cancer or who no longer have any signs of the cancer, but remain anemic as a result of their treatment.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of intravenous (iv) or subcutaneous (sc) Mircera, administered with pre-filled syringes, as maintenance treatment for renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who were previously receiving iv or sc epoetin. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous Mircera in the treatment of renal anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease who are not on dialysis and not receiving epoetin or any other erythropoietic substance. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This phase I/II trial studies whether stopping cyclosporine before mycophenolate mofetil is better at reducing the risk of life-threatening graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) than the previous approach where mycophenolate mofetil was stopped before cyclosporine. The other reason this study is being done because at the present time there are no curative therapies known outside of stem cell transplantation for these types of cancer. Because of age or underlying health status, patients may have a higher likelihood of experiencing harm from a conventional blood stem cell transplant. This study tests whether this new blood stem cell transplant method can be made safer by changing the order and length of time that immune suppressing drugs are given after transplant.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of intravenous (iv) Mircera given as maintenance treatment for renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who were previously receiving iv darbepoetin alfa. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This study will assess the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (sc) Mircera given as maintenance treatment for renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who were previously receiving sc epoetin.

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of Mircera given intravenously in the treatment of renal anemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis who are not currently receiving epoetin or any other erythropoietic substance. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
