Filter by:The primary aim of this protocol is to evaluate if the one-year survival is significantly improved in the group of patients who receive a T-cell replete haploidentical donor hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) with a novel reduced intensity conditioning regimen. Study population will consist of patients (21 years or under) with hematologic malignancies that have relapsed or are refractory after prior allogeneic transplant. Toxicity will be evaluated by the rate of transplant related mortality and the rates of moderate and severe graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) at day 100. The investigators will describe event-free, and disease-free survival at one year, as well as the rates of hematopoietic recovery and donor engraftment and study comprehensively immune reconstitution following T-cell replete haploidentical transplantation.
This phase II trial studies how well targeted therapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia or acute myelogenous leukemia that has come back after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Testing patients' blood or bone marrow to find out if their type of cancer may be sensitive to a specific drug may help doctors choose more effective treatments. Dasatinib, sunitinib malate, sorafenib tosylate, ponatinib hydrochloride, pacritinib, ruxolitinib, and idelalisib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving targeted therapy based on cancer type may be an effective treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia or acute myelogenous leukemia.
The primary objective of the trial is to compare the two-year relapse-free survival (RFS) of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), presumed to be at high risk for relapse due to the presence of leukemia stem cells (LSCs) in their bone marrow at first complete remission (CR1), who receive either standard cytarabine-based chemotherapy or allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT).
This Phase 1/2 study consists of two parts. The purpose of Part 1 of the study is to examine the safety and tolerability of AKN-028 and to determine the recommended dose of AKN-028 for further evaluation in Part 2 of the study in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). The purpose of Part 2 of the study is to determine safety and efficacy in patients with AML.
All patients receiving induction, consolidation and salvage chemotherapy, and autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation according to a strategy defined in the GIMEMA AML1310 protocol will be prospectively monitored for SI (bacteremia, invasive mycoses, other microbiologically documented bacterial infections, pneumonia, other invasive tissue infections and viral diseases) during each chemotherapy and transplant and the impact of these infections on survival will be evaluated until 24 months from the diagnosis of AML.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving rasburicase together with allopurinol works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Rasburicase may reduce the level of uric acid in the blood. Allopurinol may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known which dose of rasburicase is more effective in treating hematologic malignancies when given together with or without allopurinol.
The purpose of this study is to find out the highest safe dose and examine the side effects and effectiveness of eltrombopag olamine in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with chemotherapy that have not responded to previous therapy or have suffered a relapse
This phase II clinical trial studies how well two donors stem cell transplant work in treating patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies. After receiving radiation to help further treat the disease, patients receive a dose of donors' T cells. T cells can fight infection and react against cancer cells. Two days after donors' T cells are given, patients receive cyclophosphamide (CY) to help destroy the most active T cells that may cause tissue damage (called graft versus host disease or GVHD). Some of the less reactive T cells are not destroyed by CY and they remain in the patient to help fight infection. A few days after the CY is given, patients receive donors' stem cells to help their blood counts recover. Using two donors' stem cell transplant instead of one donor may be more effective in treating patients with high-risk disease and may prevent the disease from coming back.
This partially randomized phase II trial studies the side effects and best way to give and best dose of cholecalciferol in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing intensive induction chemotherapy. Cholecalciferol may help improve the outcome of patients with AML undergoing intensive chemotherapy
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the multi-lineage hematopoietic chimerism for unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) grafts pooled from two to three cord blood units. Also to evaluate the toxicity, and antitumor responses of pooled unrelated UCB transplants.
