Filter by:This Phase I, multicenter, first-in-human, open-label, dose-escalation study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) administered as single agent to participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid malignancies or hematologic malignancies. The study will be conducted in two cohorts: Dose-escalation cohort and Expansion cohort.
This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other indications.
This is a Phase I, open label, dose escalation study of oral administration of MLN0128 in combination with paclitaxel, with/without trastuzumab, in participants with advanced solid malignancies.
This is a research study involving the treatment of patients with hematological cancers with allogeneic (cells from a donor) hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT is often referred to as bone marrow transplant. Patients who are not expected to have long term survival after conventional therapy will undergo HSCT as a curative therapy after receiving front line therapy for their disease. This project is based on an HSCT approach that has been used at TJU since 2006 with the goal of optimizing this type of treatment further. In this new study, the investigators will substitute the chemotherapy agent, Melphalan (Mel), for cyclophosphamide (CY). Cyclophosphamide was used in the original trial. The research question is whether side effects are less using Mel and if donor T cells can be made tolerant to the recipient with the use of Mel. The proposed study is also more specific in terms of performance status and organ function entry criterion. The investigators observed in the original trial that patients with poor performance upon admission for transplant did not have as good outcomes. Because many older patients are treated according to this type of transplant, the chemotherapy and radiation used are less intensive than other types of transplant. The name for this in the transplant field is a reduced intensity hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The abbreviations most used in this document are RIC for reduced intensity conditioning, HSCT which refers to the transplant itself, and MEL which refers to the drug, Melphalan.
The purpose of this study is to determine if denosumab is non-inferior to zoledronic acid in the treatment of bone disease from multiple myeloma.
In this study, participants with high-risk hematologic malignancies undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), who do not have a suitable human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related/sibling donor (MSD), matched unrelated donor (MURD) or killer-immunoglobulin receptors (KIR) ligand mismatched haploidentical donor identified, will receive an umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen. The preparative regimen includes fludarabine (75 mg/m2), fractionated total body irradiation (TBI) (10.0 Gy), and cyclophosphamide (120mg/kg) with mesna. Fludarabine will be given once a day at 25 mg/m2 for three days on day -10 to day -8, TBI will be given twice a day at 150 cGy for four days on day -7 to day -4, and cyclophosphamide will be given once a day for at 60mg/kg for two days on day -3 and day -2. Post-transplantation immunosuppression with cyclosporine and MMF will begin on day -3. Cord Blood infusion will occur on day 0 and G-CSF will start on day +1.
Fludarabine is a chemotherapy drug used extensively in bone marrow transplantation. The goal of this study is to determine what causes some children to have different drug concentrations of fludarabine in their bodies and if drug levels are related to whether or not a child experiences severe side-effects during their bone marrow transplant. The hypothesis is that clinical and genetic factors cause changes in fludarabine drug levels in pediatric bone marrow transplant patients and that high levels may cause severe side-effects.
This is a multi-center, phase 1, open-label first-in-human study of AMG 319 in subjects with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies. This study consists of two parts. The dose exploration in part 1, studies cohorts of 3 subjects with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies and uses a practical continuous reassessment model [CRM] to guide dose escalation and to define the MTD. The dose expansion in part 2 will enroll 20 subjects with CLL at a dose no higher than the MTD and further explore the safety, PK, and clinical activity of AMG 319 in this patient population.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and tolerability of CA-18C3 in subjects with hematologic malignancies, as well as look at the preliminary efficacy of IL-1alpha blockade.
Transfusion of red blood cells (RBCs) is important for the care of patients undergoing stem cell transplantation. Stem cell transplants are used to treat blood cancers and bone marrow disorders. This involves the use of high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation to kill cancer cells; but this damages the marrow and blood system. Blood stem cells are transplanted by infusing into the recipient and blood counts recover over 2-3 weeks. Before bone marrow recovery, RBCs are needed to support the patient. Higher hemoglobin in these high risk patients may have benefits such as better energy and organ function. However, research in other areas of medicine suggests that a higher red cell count may be dangerous. Taken together, it is unclear whether having a lower or higher red cell count is better for patients having a blood stem cell transplant. The investigators plan to study this by randomly assigning patients having a transplant to be transfused with RBCs either at a higher or lower hemoglobin level. In this way, the investigators will be able to accurately find out if there are any benefits or harms in having a lower or higher red cell count during the recovery period after blood stem cell transplantation.
