Filter by:This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of pevonedistat when given together with decitabine in treating patients with high risk acute myeloid leukemia. Pevonedistat and decitabine may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes need for cell growth.
The purpose of the clinical trial is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of SEL24/MEN1703 and to further investigate its safety profile in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to compare relapse-free survival between participants with FLT3/ITD AML in first morphologic complete remission (CR1) who undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) and are randomized to receive gilteritinib or placebo beginning after the time of engraftment for a two year period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of progressively substituting day +3 and +4 post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) with post-transplant bendamustine (PT-BEN) in myeloablative (MAC) haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HHCT) for patients with hematological malignancies. The goal of the Phase 1 component of the study is to evaluate the safety of progressively substituting post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) given on Days +3 and +4 with bendamustine (PT-BEN). The Phase I component of the study has been completed. The Phase Ib component of the study will continue to evaluate the safety and efficacy of subjects who receive PT-BEN on Days +3 and +4 at the maximum tolerated dose determined by Phase I. The Phase Ib component of the study has been completed. Approximately, 18-36 subjects will be treated as part of Phase I and 15 as part of Phase Ib. Approximately 18 subjects will be used as controls, subjects that receive no PET-BEN, for direct comparison. Total, approximately 38-56 treatment and control patients and 38-56 donor subjects will be enrolled.
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the white blood cells. It is fatal if not treated. Treatment for AML that has not responded to treatment (refractory) or has returned after treatment (relapsed) often do not work. Researchers want to see if an immunotherapy drug, combined with a less intense chemotherapy, may be able to help. Objective: To test if pembrolizumab, in combination with decitabine, is a possible treatment for people with relapsed or refractory AML. Eligibility: Adults 18 years of age and older with refractory AML or relapsed AML. Design: Participants will be first screened for eligibility. The study is counted in 21-day cycles. The initial phase of the study consists of 8 cycles. Participants may be in the study for up to 2 years if they are responding to the treatment. The first 3 weeks of treatment is usually done in the hospital. The rest may be done as an outpatient. Participants will get pembrolizumab at the beginning of each cycle through an IV. Participants will usually get decitabine by IV on days 8 12 and days 15 19 of every other cycle. Participants will give blood samples. Participants will have bone marrow exams. A needle will be inserted into the hip to extract cells from the bone marrow. Some participants may give a sample of saliva from the inside of their cheek. Some participants may give a small skin sample. The top layer of the skin is removed. Some patients may require leukapheresis before starting treatment. This is a procedure to remove leukemia cells in the blood stream.
The investigators hypothesize that CX-01 will disrupt the bone marrow microenvironment and increase the cytotoxic effects of azacitidine on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) hematopoietic stem cells by disrupting the High-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) interaction with toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), the CXC chemokine CXCL12/chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) axis, and by disrupting other leukocyte and vascular adhesion molecules. In addition, CX-01 may also help promote count recovery after treatment given its affinity for platelet factor-4 (PF4). The selection of CX-01 dose for study in relapsed or refractory MDS and AML has been based upon the dual requirements to have sufficient drug administered to have potential activity but without clinically significant anticoagulation. The study dose chosen (4 mg/kg bolus followed by 0.25 mg/kg/hour) fulfills both of these criteria. In addition, this dose is expected to result in serum levels of CX-01 which are significantly higher than the IC90 identified in preclinical studies for inhibition of HMGB1-RAGE, toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4 interaction. Therefore, the chosen dose represents a rational balance between effective dosing and safety in thrombocytopenic patients with MDS and AML. This dose was previously established to be safe and tolerable when combined with cytarabine and idarubicin in patients with AML.
Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) is an aggressive and rare cancer of myeloid cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). Successful treatment of AML is dependent on what subtype of AML the participant has, and the age of the participant when diagnosed. Venetoclax is an experimental drug that kills cancer cells by blocking a protein (part of a cell) that allows cancer cells to stay alive. This study is designed to see if adding venetoclax to azacitidine works better than azacitidine on its own. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind (treatment is unknown to participants and doctors), placebo controlled study in patients with AML who are >= 18 or more years old and have not been treated before. Participants who take part in this study should not be suitable for standard induction therapy (usual starting treatment). AbbVie is funding this study which will take place at approximately 180 hospitals globally and enroll approximately 400 participants. In this study, 2/3 of participants will receive venetoclax every day with azacitidine and the remaining 1/3 will receive placebo (dummy) tablets with azacitidine. Participants will continue to have study visits and receive treatment for as long as they are having a clinical benefit. The effect of the treatment on AML will be checked by taking blood, bone marrow, scans, measuring side effects and by completing health questionnaires. Blood and bone marrow tests will be completed to see why some people respond better than others. Additional blood tests will be completed for genetic factors and to see how long the drug remains in the body.
The outcome of HMA-refractory patients with MDS or AML is dismal with a median survival of 5 months after failure, representing a significant unmet medical need due to the very limited treatment options. In this context, a specific targeting of the leukemic stem cell (LSC) seems a promising option to selectively combat the leukemic progenitor cells. In fact, CD123 is overexpressed in AML and MDS progenitors making it an attractive target for immunotherapy-based approaches. JNJ-56022473 is a promising compound that has been engineered with regard to this strategy and the current phase II trial has the aim to evaluate the overall hematological response rate at 3 months in HMA refractory/relapsed AML and MDS patients.
This is a single center pilot study of a non-myeloablative umbilical cord blood transplant for the treatment of a hematological malignancy with a single infusion of T regulatory (Treg) given shortly after UCB transplantation.
This is a single-arm, multi-center Phase II trial using IL-15 super-agonist complex (N-803 formerly known as Alt-803) maintenance after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT) for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
