Filter by:A subject of major interest for researchers, clinicians, patients, and payers, is the role of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of these older patients with AML. With conventional induction chemotherapy or hypomethylating agents, the expected 2-year overall survival (OS) is less than 25% in patients with intermediate- or high-risk disease. The 2-year OS ranges from 50 to 56% with allo-HSCT in AML patients older than 65 years. Performing an allo-HSCT in older patients is however still controversial because of the higher risk of non-relapse mortality (15 to 35%) and graft-versus-host disease. Depending on the center policy, patients older than 65 years will either be contraindicated for transplant or will receive allo-HSCT. With a phase III comparative, randomized, controlled, prospective, multicenter study, the trial aim to assess prospectively the outcomes and quality of life of older patients with AML receiving allo-HSCT strategy compared to those receiving a non-transplant approach.

The purpose of this phase 2/3 study is to confirm the recommended doses and to evaluate the safety and pharmacodynamics of Calaspargase pegol for the treatment of adult patients with Philadelphia-negative Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the effects of ASTX727 (decitabine and cedazuridine) in combination with venetoclax in treating patients with higher-risk acute myeloid leukemia patients who do not have a change in the gene called fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3). Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cedazuridine is an enzyme inhibitor. It helps to increase the amount of decitabine in the body so that the medication will have a greater effect. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Venetoclax and decitabine are commonly given together for older patients with AML ASTX727 (a pill form of decitabine + cedazuridine) has been found to be equal to decitabine (given intravenously), and this part of the study is to confirm that venetoclax and ASTX727 is as safe as venetoclax and decitabine given intravenously. This study allows for lowering doses of study drugs to assure the dose chosen for the randomized study (second portion of this trial) is safe and tolerable for people. Giving ASTX727 in combination with venetoclax may help in the treatment of patients with higher-risk acute myeloid leukemia.
Background: CAR (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) T cell therapy is a type of cancer treatment in which a person s T cells (a type of immune cell) are changed in a laboratory to recognize and attack cancer cells. Researchers want to see if this treatment can help people with hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Objective: To test whether it is safe to give anti-CD22 CAR T cells to people with HCL. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older with HCL (classic or variant type) who have already had, are unable to receive, or have refused other standard treatments for their cancer. Design: Participants will be screened with the following: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Biopsy sample Electrocardiogram Echocardiogram Lung function tests Imaging scans Some screening tests will be repeated during the study. Participants may need to have a catheter placed in a large vein. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. Participants will have a neurologic evaluation and fill out questionnaires. Participants will have leukapheresis. Blood will be removed from the participant. A machine will divide whole blood into red cells, plasma, and lymphocytes. The lymphocytes will be collected. The remaining blood will be returned to the participant. Participants will get infusions of chemotherapy drugs. Participants will get an infusion of the anti-CD22 CAR T cells. They will stay at the hospital for 14 days. Then they will have visits twice a week for 1 month. After treatment, participants will be followed closely for 6 months, and then less frequently for at least 5 years. Then they will have long-term follow-up for 15 years.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of hCD19.IL15.CAR-iNKT cells in treating patients with relapsed/refractory/high-risk B-cell tumors.
There are studies in the literature that include parent training for the prevention and care of mucositis. Many national and international organizations have emphasized the responsibility of the nurse in patient education and stated it in the relevant laws and regulations. The regulations focus on the educative role of the nurse for patients. In pediatric oncology clinics where leukaemia treatment and care is provided, the educational role of the nurse is directed towards the child individual and their family, and determining and meeting the educational needs of the whole family is vital in the nursing management of the child with cancer. In this context, this study aims to examine the effect of mucositis care training to caregivers of pediatric patients aged 2 to 18 years, on the development of mucositis and the clinic's "mucosal barrier damage, laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infections".
Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is an aggressive and rare cancer of myeloid cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections) and is the most common acute leukemia in adults. This study will assess how safe and effective oral venetoclax is in participants with AML. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be monitored under routine clinical practice. Venetoclax is an approved drug to treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Around 400 participants of any age who are treated with oral venetoclax tablets for AML in accordance with the approved label will be enrolled in the study across Japan. Participants will be followed up to 52 weeks following the first dose of oral venetoclax tablets. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this study. Data will be collected by information provided by participating physicians based on routine medical records.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) of JNJ-75276617 in Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine safety and tolerability at the RP2D(s) in Part 2 (Dose Expansion).
The purpose of this single-arm, open-label, Phase 1b/2a, multicenter basket study is to evaluate whether tafasitamab and parsaclisib can be safely combined at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and dosing regimen that was established for each of the 2 compounds as a treatment option for adult participants with R/R B-cell malignancies.
