Filter by:Primary outcome measure: Evaluate the efficacy in terms of complete responses of induction therapy and first-line consolidation of Clofarabine and low-dose Cytarabine with AML patients aged 60 years or more. The first efficacy objective is evaluate the overall remission rate (TRG), where general reference (RG) is defined as a patient who achieved complete remission (CR) or complete remission with inadequate platelet recovery (CPR). Secondary outcome measures: - To evaluate disease-free survival (DFS) - Evaluate the overall survival (OS) - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of clofarabine and duration, severity and relationship of adverse events (AEs) occurring during treatment - To assess the rate of mortality at 30 days (ie, the incidence of deaths occurring between Day 1 and Day 30 of induction cycle) - The incidence, intensity (according to the latest version of the CTCAE classification), duration, causality, severity and type of AA
The purpose of this prospective phase III, open-label, randomized multicenter study is to evaluate whether Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) elderly patients in Complete Remission (CR) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after a reduce toxicity conditioning regimen (I.V. BuFlu) as compared to the conventional I.V. BuCy2 program will experience: 1. A lower transplant-related mortality (TRM) at 1 year after Hematopoietic Stem Cells Transplant (HSCT) 2. A similar anti-leukemic activity and a similar or better safety profile, in terms of: - Early and/or late graft rejection - Hematopoietic and immunologic recovery - Chimerism - Toxicity and incidence of Veno-occlusive Disease (VOD) - Acute (aGvHD) and chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) - Cumulative incidence of TRM at +100 days and 2 years after transplant - Cumulative incidence of relapse by 1 and 2 years after transplant - Event-free (EFS) and overall survival (OS) by 1 and 2 years after transplant
This study compared treatment groups of patients treated with vosaroxin and cytarabine versus patients treated with placebo and cytarabine.
Patients participating in this study will have a diagnosis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. This study will evaluate whether the addition of an investigational drug called RAD001 given together with Imatinib will better target leukemia stem cells, causing them to die. Stem cells are a small population of cells, existing primarily within the bone marrow, and are believed to be responsible for the ongoing risk of disease relapse.
The purpose of the study is to determine if participants who receive the GVHD prophylaxis medication pentostatin will have less severe hepatic toxicities than those receiving MTX. The study is estimated to have sufficient statistical power to ascertain at least a 20% improvement in day 42 NCI CTC grade 2 or above hepatic toxicity-free survival in pentostatin recipients.
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a disease of the elderly, with a median age at diagnosis of 65. A poor outcome in this population has been well established, with very short overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS).There are numerous bad prognostic factors related to the disease itself or to the patient's medical condition. This study will evaluate the impact of a Comprehensive Geriatric assessment (CGA) performed at diagnosis with planned interventions according to disabilities and monthly follow-up by a nurse practitioner during 6 months on functional status of older cancer patients treated for Acute myeloid leukaemia. Functional status will be assessed with the Lawson Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scale at diagnosis and 6 months after randomisation.
The purpose of this study is to determine predictive value of Hammersmith score on Complete Cytogenetic Response (CCyR).
The present trial will establish a prospective sequential Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation (allo-SCT) treatment combining both salvage chemotherapy and Reduced Intensity Conditioning (RIC) for primary treatment failure Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), to which future innovative strategies can be compared.
The purposee of this study is to determine the safety and dosing of Fenretinide when given continuously for 5 days, every 3 weeks, in pediatric patients with recurrent and/or resistant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the addition of Sirolimus (rapamycin) to standard chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with high risk acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Cancer cells taken from the patients will be studied in the laboratory to see if rapamycin is affecting the mTOR pathway in the cells and if this effect is correlated with how well patients respond to the therapy.
