Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to examine the outcome of a combined bone marrow and kidney transplant from a partially matched related (haploidentical or "haplo") donor. This is a pilot study, you are being asked to participate because you have a blood disorder and kidney disease. The aim of the combined transplant is to treat both your underlying blood disorder and kidney disease. We expect to have about 10 people participate in this study. Additionally, because the same person who is donating the kidney will also be donating the bone marrow, there may be a smaller chance of kidney rejection and less need for long-term use of anti-rejection drugs. Traditionally, very strong cancer treatment drugs (chemotherapy) and radiation are used to prepare a subject's body for bone marrow transplant. This is associated with a high risk for serious complications, even in subjects without kidney disease. This therapy can be toxic to the liver, lungs, mucous membranes, and intestines. Additionally, it is believed that standard therapy may be associated with a higher risk of a complication called graft versus host disease (GVHD) where the new donor cells attack the recipient's normal body. Recently, less intense chemotherapy and radiation regimens have been employed (these are called reduced intensity regimens) which cause less injury and GVHD to patients, and thus, have allowed older and less healthy patients to undergo bone marrow transplant. In this study, a reduced intensity regimen of chemotherapy and radiation will be used with the intent of producing fewer toxicities than standard therapy. Typical therapy following a standard kidney transplant includes multiple lifelong medications that aim to prevent the recipient's body from attacking or rejecting the donated kidney. These are called immunosuppressant drugs and they work by "quieting" the recipient's immune system to allow the donated kidney to function properly. One goal in our study is to decrease the duration you will need to be on immunosuppressant drugs following your kidney transplant as the bone marrow transplant will provide you with the donor's immune system which should not attack the donor kidney.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ipilimumab and how well it works in treating patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or no longer responds to treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.
This study enrolled 472 participants, aged 55 or older, with a diagnosis of de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or AML secondary to prior myelodysplastic disease or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), and who have achieved first complete remission (CR)/ complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) following induction with or without consolidation chemotherapy. The study is amended to include an extension phase (EP). The EP allows participants who are currently receiving oral azacitidine and who are demonstrating clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator, to continue receiving oral azacitidine after unblinding by sponsor until the participant meets the criteria for study discontinuation or until oral azacitidine becomes commercially available and reimbursed. In addition, all participants in the placebo arm and participants who had been discontinued from the treatment phase (irrespective of randomization arm) and continuing in the follow-up phase will be followed for survival in the EP.
Primary objectives: - To establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BEZ235 when administered twice daily (BID) as a single agent in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia - To determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) Secondary objectives: - Assess the safety and tolerability of daily oral administration of BEZ235 with a BID schedule - To describe preliminary anti-leukemic activity of BEZ235 in patients with acute leukemia - To correlate changes in pharmacodynamic biomarkers with basic pharmacokinetic data Exploratory objectives: - To assess pre-treatment phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway-related genes in blast cells and all other malignant cells derived from blood or bone marrow. - To assess the pharmacodynamic changes in components of the PI3K-protein kinase B (AKT)-mTOR pathway in bone marrow following treatment as potential predictive biomarkers of pharmacodynamic (PD) activity of BEZ235 in association with clinical responses. - To identify potential resistance mechanisms and biomarkers that may correlate with efficacy and response from blood and bone marrow samples pre-and post-treatment in case of resistance
It is an open-label, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Compound realgar formula Realgar-Indigo naturalis Tablet combined with Imatinib will be compared with imatinib alone in adult patients with diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP).
The objective of this study is to acquire more information about what we are doing during pregnancy in CML patients, in order to possibly establish in the future a consensus on the management of patients receiving TKIs who wants to father a child or become/are pregnant.
This study will compare the clinical outcomes of transplants from family-mismatched/haploidentical donors (FMT) with transplants from 8/8-matched unrelated donor (MUT), which is a current gold standard donors when lacking of HLA-matched-siblings 1. Primary objectives: Overall survival of FMT may be similar to that of MUT 2. Secondary objectives: i. Comparison of disease-free survival, relapse, non-relapse mortality, immune reconstitution cytomegalovirus infection, and acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease between FMT and MUT. ii. Investigation of possible biomarkers related with above events after transplantation
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ruxolitinib and to see how well it works in participants with chronic myeloid leukemia with minimal residual disease while on therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Ruxolitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether cyclophosphamide post bone marrow transplant increases the rate of patients alive, in remission and without immunosuppression, one year after transplant, when compared with the combination of methotrexate and calcineurin inhibitor
The purpose of this phase I/II study is to define the maximum tolerated dose of 5-AzaC and the effect on grade II-IV GvHD when given after matched unrelated donor transplant (MUD).
