This phase II trial studies the effect of venetoclax together with busulfan, cladribine, and fludarabine in treating patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome who are undergoing stem cell transplant. Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax, busulfan, cladribine, and fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Adding venetoclax to the current standard of care stem cell transplant regimen of busulfan, fludarabine, and cladribine may help to control high-risk acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
The INTERACT study is a nation-wide, population-based randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of 6-month integrative neuromuscular training during anti-cancer treatment on lower body muscle strength, metabolic syndrome, various measures of physical function, physical activity, days of hospitalization, health-related quality of life and health behavior in children and adolescents with cancer. The increased insight derived from this study will impact the development of pediatric exercise oncology and be of high relevance to a broad group of children and adolescents with severe chronic illness. The study is based on the overarching hypothesis, that structured integrative neuromuscular training initiated immediately after diagnosis will be effective in preventing deficits in neuromuscular function, limit long-term cardio-metabolic morbidity and found long-standing improvements in physical activity behavior. To maintain adherence and motivation throughout a 6-month training intervention, weekly supervision of the training is needed. For this study, it is hypothesized that a supervised exercise intervention, in addition to a motivational counseling intervention and usual care, will improve muscle strength compared with unsupervised home-based training (active controls).
Introduction of immuno-chemotherapy in the treatment options of CLL and SLL changed the treatment paradigm of these diseases. Presently, first-line therapies for CLL/SLL include targeted therapies (e.g. ibrutinib, acalabrutinib) or combined immuno-chemotherapy regimens (e.g., fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab for patients aged <65 years without del17p/TP53 mutations or bendamustine and rituximab for patients ≥65 years who have additional comorbidities). Despite the gradual introduction of targeted therapies, new treatment strategies efficacious for patients ineligible for/unresponsive to these therapies are still required. These new strategies should ideally overcome disease relapse and circumvent compound-specific safety challenges. Emerging treatment options include new compounds aimed for both untreated and relapsed/refractory CLL, and combination therapies of existing compounds that extend single-agent efficacy in specific high-risk patient populations. CAP-100 is expected to prevent the migration of leukemia cells to and their survival in lymphoid niches as well as to eliminate CCR7-positive leukemia cells via ADCC, resulting in measurable clinical responses. The present trial is the first-in-human trial of CAP-100 and is divided into two phases. The aim of the Phase Ia (dose escalation) is to define the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) versus the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CAP-100 in subjects with CLL. Phase Ib of the trial (expansion phase) will evaluate the safety and preliminary clinical benefit of CAP-100 monotherapy at RP2D (response rate, lymph node size reduction, assessment of minimal residual disease [MRD]) to support the design of future trials investigating CAP-100 either as monotherapy or in a combination setting with approved treatments for CLL.
The purpose of the study is to identify doses and schedules of VOB560 and MIK665 that can be safely given and to learn if the combination can have possible benefits for patients with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), Multiple Myeloma (MM) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). VOB560 and MIK665 are selective and potent blockers respectively of the B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) protein and of the myeloid cell leukaemia 1 (MCL1) protein, proteins that may protect tumor cells from undergoing cell death. VOB560 and MIK665 are designed to block the functions of the BCL2 and MCL1 proteins, so that the tumor cells that rely on these proteins undergo cell death. Preclinical data suggest that concomitant treatment with VOB560 in combination with MIK665 induces robust anti-tumor activity.
The aim of this study is to describe the survival and relapses of patients with diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia at two tertiary level hospitals in the metropolitan area of the valley of Mexico
This trial studies the feasibility and acceptability of a mobile intervention called txt4TKI for the improvement of tyrosine kinase inhibitor management in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are associated with numerous potential side effects, including a decrease in bone marrow activity (myelosuppression), nausea, diarrhea, fatigue, and soft-tissue swelling (edema), especially in the face and lower legs, which are the primary reasons for patients to discontinue TKI medication. Using a mobile text messaging (TXT) intervention that emphasizes the importance of TKI compliance may improve TKI adherence in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether people with CLL or SLL who are currently receiving treatment with ibrutinib can stop treatment and remain off-treatment for at least 12 months, if they have achieved complete or partial remission of their disease.
This is a clinical study of TAA6 cell injection in the treatment of patients with relapsed / refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia . The purpose is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CD276 targeted autologous chimeric antigen receptor T cells infusion in patients with relapsed / refractory CD276 positive Acute Myeloid Leukemia.（TAA6 cell injection is a T cell targeting CD276 chimeric antigen receptor）
This is a phase I trial of the IL-1 receptor antagonist anakinra in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients who are predicted to eventually require first-line therapy based on conventional clinical criteria. Three groups of 4 patients will be injected subcutaneously with either 100 mg daily or 100 mg twice daily or 200 mg twice daily for 7 cycles of 4 weeks each to determine the dose-limiting toxicity of anakinra in this population. Clinical responses will be determined by conventional IWCLL criteria. It is hoped anakinra will prevent disease progression with little toxicity. The study is anticipated to be completed within a year.
