Filter by:RATIONALE: Ondansetron may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ondansetron works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
The aim of this clinical study in adult ALL is to compare by risk category (1) the feasibility of two different CNS prophylaxis regimens and (2) the overall disease-free survival in relation to the achievement of an early MRD negative status and following consolidation with lineage-targeted methotrexate infusions and other disease-specific therapeutic elements, with or without the application of allogeneic or autologous SCT depending on risk class and MRD study results. In this multicentric prospective pilot randomized phase II trial on CNS prophylaxis, all patients receive induction/consolidation therapy incorporating lineage-targeted high-dose methotrexate plus other drugs (with additional imatinib in Ph/BCR-ABL+ ALL), for the achievement of an early negative MRD status. The MRD study supports a risk/MRD-oriented final consolidation phase.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the efficacy (combined morphologic and flow remissions) of a combination of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and multiple dose rituximab as frontline therapy for CLL. Secondary Objective: - To evaluate remission duration and survival.
This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving combination chemotherapy together with or without donor stem cell transplant and to see how well it works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect).
Primary objective: - To determine overall response-rate, complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) Secondary objectives: - To assess the safety and tolerability of ITF2357; - to assess total rate of responders (complete + partial responders); - to determine the 6 months progression free survival; - to determine the effects of the drug on haematological parameters.
The goal of the Phase I part of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of bendamustine that can be given to patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), Chronic myelogenous (or myeloid) leukemia (CML) in blastic phase, Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML), and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The goal of the Phase II part of this clinical research study is to learn if bendamustine can help to control AML, ALL and MDS. The safety of this drug will continue to be studied.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor natural killer (NK) cell therapy and to see how well it works when given together with fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, total-body irradiation, donor bone marrow transplant, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus in treating patients with hematologic cancer. Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem 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. Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) may help the patient's immune system see any remaining cancer cells as not belonging in the patient's body and destroy them (called graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus after the transplant may stop this from happening.
This is a Phase 1 study evaluating the safety of ABT-263 administered in combination with rituximab in participants with CD20-positive lymphoproliferative disorders. The extension portion of the study will allow active participants to continue to receive ABT-263 for up to 14 years after the last participant transitions with quarterly study evaluations.
This multicentric phase III study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of recombinant asparaginase (rASNase) in comparison to Asparaginase medac™ during treatment of children with de novo ALL
The study is a Phase Ib extension trial that will assess the toxicity, tolerability, and safety of up to two repeated administrations of 1x10^8, 3x10^8, or 1x10^9 autologous Ad-ISF35-transduced CLL B cells given intravenously to patients with CLL who tolerated ISF35 in the prior Phase I infusion trial at M.D. Anderson.
