Filter by:To determine, compared with Daunorubicin(DNR), whether Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) inducing higher complete remission (CR) rate, in untreated primary ALL adult patients with VDCLD regimen induction therapy. Second, to determine, compared with the DNR, whether chemotherapy containing PLD with a higher response rates and greater safety in adult ALL
To evaluate the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using targeted busulfan, fludarabine, etoposide conditioning regimen in childhood and adolescent ALL.
The purpose of this study is to investigate safety and efficacy of SyB L-0501 after 2-day intravenous infusion at a dose of 100 mg/m2/day to patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
The reconstitution of a functioning immune system after allogeneic stem cell transplantation takes months to years. Particularly memory B-lymphocytes reconstitute poorly with the current conditioning regimes. During the period of intense immune suppression the patients are extremely susceptible to bacterial, fungal and, most importantly, viral infections.The adoptive transfer of B-lymphocytes from the stem-cell donor might significantly enhance humoral immunity for the patient. Aim of the study is to evaluate a new cellular therapy with B-lymphocytes regarding safety. A booster vaccination after B-lymphocyte transfer will evaluate the functionality of the transferred B-lymphocytes in the patient.
The cure rate for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has increased significantly in recent decades and expected cure rates now exceed 85%. In recent years, Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor(TKI) has improved outcome of Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+)ALL . But in some high risk groups, The prognosis of patients is still very bad and the relapse rate is high. Clearly, new therapies are urgently needed to prevent and /or treat relapsed ALL.
This is a treatment guideline for an unrelated umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT) using a myeloablative preparative regimen for the treatment of hematological diseases, including, but not limited to acute leukemias. The myeloablative preparative regimen will consist of cyclophosphamide (CY), fludarabine (FLU) and fractionated total body irradiation (TBI).
The ALL SCTped 2012 FORUM is a multinational, multi-centre, controlled, prospective phase III study for the therapy and therapy optimisation for children and adolescents with ALL in complete morphological remission (CR, less than 5% bone marrow blasts, no blasts in cerebrospinal fluid, no other extramedullary leukemia), who have an indication for HSCT with a myeloablative conditioning regimen. The stratification of patients in first and following remissions according to the individual transplantation modalities rests upon an indication for allogeneic HSCT and the availability of a suitable donor within the individual transplantation groups.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) accounts for 30 % of all childhood malignancies. The patients undergo four phases of treatment, finishing with a late maintenance phase in which 6-mercaptopurine and Methotrexate are essential components. Insufficient treatment intensity in this phase is associated with increased risk of relapse. Excessive variation in the bioavailability of 6-mercaptopurine has been observed which can cause both risks of undertreatment/relapse as well as overtreatment with severe side effects. In the attempt to achieve individualized 6-mercaptopurine dosing different approaches have been pursued. Nonetheless variation in bioavailability remains a problem. Earlier, oral tablets of 50 mg (Purinethol) were the only administration form of 6-mercaptopurine and it was primarily designed for adult patients. Challenges with accurate dosing and getting the children to swallow the tablets have been a widespread problem, forcing the caregivers to divide or crush the tablets as well as having to administer different dosages over 2-3 days. Due to these problems, an oral liquid formulation of 6-mercaptopurine (Xaluprine) has been developed. However this oral liquid has only been tested on healthy adult volunteers, and not on the target group, childhood patients. This project will assess the bioavailability and plasma kinetics of oral liquid and tablet formulation of 6-mercaptopurine in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The investigators hypothesize to observe comparable plasma kinetics, in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when treated with 6-mercaptopurine in the form of a tablet and oral liquid formulation, as previously observed in healthy adults.
To provide the IRB approved mechanism for the prospective collection, analysis and reporting of data on patients who are undergoing either an autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant for a disease in which a research question is not being addressed and for which peer reviewed, published data have demonstrated efficacy for this treatment approach.
Intensified conditioning regimen allo-HSCT is based on a hypothesis of that intensifying condition with less-used drugs could overcome resistance,reduce tumor burden, and most importantly, spare enough time for slow-growing GVL effect following immune reconstitution to finally get rid of MRD and control the disease. Our previous trial of HDE-ALL-2011 (NCT01457040) have confirmed the role of intensified conditioning allo-HSCT in adult ALL, resulting in significantly improved OS and EFS in comparison with previous standard TBI/CY2 conditioning regimen(data not yet published). But at the same time, FA-TBI/CY2-VP16 conditioning regimen was associated with high transplantation-related mortality (TRM), which might be attributed to excessive suppression on both bone marrow and immune. TT-ALL-HIE-2013, substituting FA with idarubicin, is aimed at maintaining anti-tumor effect with less cross-resistance and immune suppression and reducing TRM.
