Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of AZD1152 and to assess effect of AZD1152 on the rate of complete remission in patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia who are not considered to be suitable for standard chemotherapy.
Hypothesis: Myeloablative conditioning using a dose escalation of clofarabine in combination with cytarabine (ARA-C) and total body irradiation (TBI) will lead to improved survival for previously untransplanted children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute non-lymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL)followed by allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AlloSCT).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a tablet form of azacitidine that taken by mouth is safe. This Phase I study will also look at different doses and different treatment schedules in order to better understand the effects (positive and negative) of oral azacitidine on the body and on the disease MDS, AML and CMML.
The purpose of this study is to show that a therapeutic platelet transfusion strategy (i.e. platelet transfusion only in case of bleeding) needs minimally a quarter less of transfusions compared to the standard prophylactic transfusion strategy (i.e. platelet transfusion without any sign of bleeding when the platelet count is below 10.000/µL). With the experimental transfusion strategy transfusions could be safely reduced when the study hypothesis can be proven. This is the first prospective randomized study on this topic.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of performing unrelated stem cell transplants using intravenous busulfan and fludarabine as preparative therapy and tacrolimus plus methotrexate as the GVHD prophylaxis regimen. The goal is to demonstrate safety, aiming for a transplant related mortality rate (TRM) of < or equal to 40% at 100 days. A TRM of > or equal to 60% will be considered unacceptable. Another goal is to demonstrate efficacy by showing and overall survival of >40% at 1-year following transplant.
This is a phase II, multi-center, open-label, non-randomized trial. During Part 1 of the trial, patients will receive once daily oral administration of STI571 at a dose of 600 mg for 24 weeks. After completing 24 weeks of therapy, patients may be eligible to receive additional therapy during Part 2 of the trial provided that, in the opinion of the investigator, the patient has benefited from treatment with STI571 and in the absence of safety concerns. During Part 2 (which is of indefinite duration), patients will continue to receive STI571 on a daily basis until either death, the development of intolerable toxicity or the investigator feels it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue therapy, whichever comes first.
This is a phase III multicenter, open-label study designed to investigate the efficacy (hematological response, cytogenetic response and molecular response) and feasibility (tolerance, compliance and safety) of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib mesylate (formerly STI 571, GLIVEC, Novartis Pharma) at conventional dose (400 mg/daily) if compared with high dose (800 mg/daily) (serial number protocol ICSG/CML/022) in patients with Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP) previously untreated, at high Sokal risk.
The primary objective of this study is to examine transplant related mortality (TRM) at 100 days <30%. A TRM of >50% is considered unacceptable. This study also seeks a TRM at 12 months that is <50%, engraftment >90% (defined as donor cells >80% at 6 months), and 1 year overall survival >50%.
This study is a phase I/II study to determine the safety and efficacy of AMD3100 when combined with mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine in patients with relapsed or refractory AML. We hypothesize that disrupting the interaction between AML blasts and the marrow microenvironment with AMD3100 may enhance the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapy.
The overall aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of AS1411, over a range of doses, when combined with cytarabine, in the treatment of patients with primary refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
