Filter by:The investigators recently identified promiscuous HLA-DR-derived epitopes from the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) called universal cancer peptides (UCP), to study tumor-specific CD4+ T cell responses. The aim of this prospective preliminary study is to evaluate the presence of UCP-specific Th1 responses in patients in complete remission of CML two years after end of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKi) treatments.
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy (iTKs) is the first-line treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). Its effectiveness in controlling the progression of the disease is such that it is possible today to consider stopping treatment in patients with deep molecular response (> RM4.0). Only in about 50% of cases, patients relapse. It has been shown in these patients that hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are persistant, quiescent and insensitive to iTKs. These cells are probably at the origin of relapse. It is therefore necessary to develop complementary therapies to cure the disease and consider discontinuation iTKs The development of anti-tumor immunotherapy approach using genetically modified T cells to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and specifically targeting CML CSH + could address this issue. The membrane expression of the IL-1-RAP protein could be an interesting target.
This is a post-authorization, retrospective multicentre observational nationwide study (PAS-OD). It will be conducted by reviewing medical records and database of patients who participated in the validation of the psychometric properties of the GAH study (CEL-GAH-2011-01). In all cases, only data prior to the start date of the study will be collected to ensure its retrospective nature, thereby reflecting routine clinical practice and non-interference in the physician's clinical practice
Over recent decades, improvements have been made in the treatment of adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This has been mainly attributed to improvements in supportive therapy and to intensification of treatment strategies. The introduction of a post-induction myeloablative regimen followed by allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) has reduced the relapse rate in younger adults. However, this procedure is limited by the availability of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical donors and conventional SCT preparative regimens according to patient age. In the absence of a compatible donor, myeloablative chemotherapy followed by autologous peripheral blood (PB) SCT remains one treatment strategy in adult patients with AML, allowing 35 - 50% long-term survivors. Despite several advantages of the CD34+ cell mobilization procedure, recent data have shown that relapse was higher and leukemia-free survival (LFS) shorter compared with bone marrow (BM) autografts. Higher doses of CD34+ peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) are collected to ensure engraftment and possibly reduce the incidence of treatment-related mortality (TRM). Although there is a threshold CD34+ cell dose below which engraftment is delayed in AML, the positive linear correlation of the number of CD34+ cells and kinetics of engraftment reaches a limit above which an increase in the number of progenitor cells does not provide any additional benefit. Relapse has been shown to be higher and survival shorter for those who receive the highest CD34+ PB doses. Although highly active against the leukemia bulk, intensive chemotherapy often spares the hardiest leukemia stem cells (LSCs) responsible for relapse. Detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) in autologous PBSC products may reflect inadequate in vivo purging, at least in part responsible for relapse. Although representing a heterogeneous cell population including both normal and leukemia cells, and despite that recent data have challenged the CD34+ CD38- phenotype of LSCs in AML, the CD34+ CD38- cell population generally remains considered enriched for LSCs. In this setting, MRD remaining during morphological complete remission (CR) should be relatively enriched in CD34+ CD38- leukemia cells, and their persistence after CR achievement should correlate with disease recurrence. This was investigated in a cohort of 123 patients with AML following apheresis procedures after CR achievement. The investigators also studied the impact of the infused dose of subpopulations of CD34+ PB cells on the outcome of a subset of 71 patients who further underwent autologous PBSCT.
A Phase 1, an Open-label, Multicenter Phase 1 Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Splicing Modulator H3B-8800 (RVT-2001) for Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia
The purpose of this study is to characterize the regimen limiting toxicities (RLT) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of indoximod in patients with newly diagnosed AML receiving remission induction chemotherapy with cytarabine and idarubicin.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well selinexor works when given together with induction, consolidation, and maintenance therapy in treating older patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Selinexor may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Selinexor with induction, consolidation, and maintenance therapy may kill more cancer cells in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
This is a phase 1b, dose escalation, study of quizartinib to evaluate the safety profile, the pharmacokinetics, and the recommended dose of quizartinib for subsequent clinical studies of the combination of quizartinib and induction and consolidation chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to see whether HLA-mismatched donor cells infusion with chemotherapy (microtransplantation，MST) could increase complete remission (CR) and improve survival in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)，the investigators conducted a prospective, multicenter clinical trial of HLA-mismatched MST to estimate outcomes and toxicities.
The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to learn if ponatinib alone can help to control FLT3-mutated AML or FLT3-mutated high-risk MDS. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The goal of Part 2 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of ponatinib in combination with 5-azacytidine and to learn if the highest dose level found can help to control FLT3-mutated AML or FLT3-mutated high-risk MDS. The safety of this combination will also be studied.
