Filter by:The purpose of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab retreatment and maintenance in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia who have previously responded or had disease stabilization after ofatumumab in an ongoing trial (Hx-CD20-406).
The patient receive 2 different drug combinations on this study. The first combination will consist of an intensive chemotherapy regimen (cyclophosphamide, mesna, methotrexate, doxorubicin liposomal or doxorubicin, vincristine, ARA-C (cytarabine) and dexamethasone). The second combination will consist of another intensive chemotherapy regimen (methotrexate and Ara-C [cytarabine]).
RATIONALE: Gathering information about metabolic syndrome from young patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia may help doctors learn more about the disease. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the metabolic syndrome in young patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in remission.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, open-label, multicenter study in subjects with previously untreated CLL. It is designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, rituximab (FCR) and lumiliximab versus FCR alone.
To evaluate whether CAMPATH-1H given to patients with CLL after maximum response to chemotherapy will: a) eliminate minimal residual disease (documented by flow cytometry) in patients who have achieved a complete remission (CR) or b) convert partial remission to complete remission. To evaluate the time-to-progression of patients according to pretreatment characteristics and response status at study entry. To evaluate whether CAMPATH-1H given to patients with CLL after maximum response to chemotherapy will eliminate minimal residual disease as determined by real-time quantitative PCR.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of clofarabine when given to patients with CLL. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
RATIONALE: A personalized Internet-based program may help improve fatigue, depression, and quality of life in long-term survivors of stem cell transplant. It is not yet known whether an Internet-based program is more effective with or without telephone-based problem-solving training. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well an Internet-based program works with or without telephone-based problem-solving training in helping long-term survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplant cope with late complications
Participants with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) will be randomized to SCH 727965 or gemtuzumab ozogamicin. All participants with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) will receive SCH 727965. Part 1 of the study will determine the activity of SCH 727965 treatment in participants with AML and participants with ALL. Part 2 of the study will determine the activity of SCH 727965 treatment in participants with AML who experienced disease progression after standard treatment with gemtuzumab ozogamicin during Part 1.
All patients are treated according to the same therapy regimen. Therapy duration (number of cycles) and radiotherapy vary according to age group, stage and response. Chemotherapy consists of a pre-phase-treatment (for all patients) and varying A, B and C cycles. Therapy for Patients in the 18-55 Age Group - Patients in stages III-IV and all patients with mediastinal tumors or extranodal involvement are administered 6 cycles (A1, B1, A2, B2, A3, B3). - Chemotherapy is stopped after 4 cycles (A1, B1, A2, B2) for patients with stage I/ II if a clear CR has been achieved and there is initially no mediastinal or extranodal involvement. - In cases of refractory or progressive disease after 4 cycles, study therapy is stopped. These patients are to be given salvage therapy with subsequent stem cell transplantation. Therapy for Patients older than 55 years - The course corresponds to that of patients in the younger age group, but the regimen is dose reduced (A1*, B1*,A2*, B2*, A3*, B3*). Antibody therapy with anti-CD20 is to be administered on day 1 of each chemotherapy cycle (A, B). After end of chemotherapy (6 or 4 cycles) 2 more cycles of anti-CD 20 are to be administered to reach a total number of 8 resp. 6 cycles antibody therapy.
Objectives: Primary objective: Evaluate toxicity of rapamycin when used for post-bone marrow transplant graft vs. host disease prophylaxis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Investigator initiated; four participating institutions; Phase II pilot study
