Filter by:This study compares overall survival between patients with acute myeloid leukemia, who are in complete remission following initial treatment with chemotherapy and whose remission is maintained either with a transplantation of stem cells obtained from a sibling or unrelated donor or with standard treatment, which is additional chemotherapy. The study hypothesis is that the group transplanted with stem cells from a donor will have a superior survival compared with patients treated with standard of care.
Cancer patients in clinical trials donate various human samples (e.g., serum, plasma, blood, urine, feces, bile, saliva) for research purposes. The purpose of this study is to conduct further analyses on these existing samples from clinical trials that are being performed outside of, but in collaboration with, the National Cancer Institute.
MULTICENTERS. Uncontrolled and open phase II study. Evaluation of the effectiveness of a treatment associating 5 Azacytidine,Valproic acid ,Retinoic Acid at subjects-reached of syndromes myelodysplasia and acute MYELOID leukaemia Hematological response at 6 months Uncontrolled prospective cohort.
This study is composed of Phase I and Phase II part. Phase I part: The objective is to evaluate the safety of BMS-354825 in subject with chronic phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML). Dosage of BMS-354825 will be 50 mg BID, 70 mg BID or 90 mg BID. Phase II part: The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of BMS-354825. dosage will be decided according to the results of Phase I part. Treatment period will be 6 months for subjects with chronic phase CML, and 3 months for subjects with accelerated phase or blast phase CML and Philadelphia Chromosome Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (Ph+ALL)
RATIONALE: PHA-739358 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well PHA-739358 works in treating patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia that relapsed after imatinib mesylate or c-ABL therapy.
The purpose of this trial is to to determine the safety and effectiveness of therapeutic combination - Clofarabine and Cytarabine for the treatment of AML and MDS.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the side effects and anti-leukemic benefits of imatinib with those of interferon and Ara-C for patients who have chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in the chronic phase. Patients in this study will be randomized (1:1) to receive either interferon plus Ara-C or imatinib as initial treatment.
This randomized phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with idarubicin in treating patients with relapsed or refractory leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and idarubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving vorinostat together with idarubicin may kill more cancer cells.
To document therapeutic gain achieved by cyclic application of L-ascorbic acid (LAA) supplementation and depletion, while confirming safety and avoidance of clinically significant scurvy, in chemorefractory patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of neutrophil engraftment after transplantation of one or two cord blood units meeting a predetermined total minimum cell dose of 2.0 x 10 to the seventh total nucleated cell (TNC)/kg.
