Filter by:This study aims at evaluating the safety and the tolerance of the micro-transplantation in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia who are ineligible to conventional allogeneic transplantation.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well multi-antigen cytomegalovirus (CMV)-modified vaccinia Ankara vaccine works in reducing CMV related complications in patients with blood cancer who are undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Vaccines made from a gene-modified virus may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells.
The study aims at developing a model for the prediction of time to first treatment in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients presenting with asymptomatic early stage disease
The purpose of this study is to assesses the benefit, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of BST-236 in patients with newly-diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who are not eligible for standard induction chemotherapy due to advanced age or comorbidities. The Complete Remission (CR) rate following treatment with BST-236 will be compared to the CR rate reported in historical data in a similar population.
Prospective, multicenter, observational, national study (EPA-SP) that aims to describe the survival and the quality of life, the clinical management strategies and the prognostic factors for survival related to the patient, in a prospective cohort of patients over 60 with AML diagnosis in Spain and treated outside of clinical trials; that is, under conditions of standard clinical practice. The study will last 24 months in total from the inclusion of the first patient until the end of the last patient's follow-up
The aim of the research in this study is to make participants' transplant safer by reducing the risk of developing GVHD and GVHD-related complications by giving participants a dose of the drug tocilizumab in addition to the standard approach for GVHD prevention. Tocilizumab reduces the risk of inflammation by blocking the effect of Interleukin-6, a protein that exists in high levels in the blood when there is inflammation. Participants who receive stem cell transplants have high levels of this protein in their blood early after transplant. Therefore, the goal of this study is to reduce the risk of inflammation after transplant with the addition of Tocilizumab. This could decrease the risk of developing GVHD and GVHD-associated complications.
SIR-POSA is a phase II trial of peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation from a partially compatible family (Haplo) donor in patients with a blood tumor (myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute leukemia) treated for the prevention of primary fungal infections with posaconazole. The aim is evaluate the composite end-point graft-versus-host disease-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) in these patients and evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of posaconazole oral tablets as primary antifungal prophylaxis.
Published data regarding the temporal pattern of AML are scarce and old. The greater knowledge of these neoplasias has made that their classification has been remarkable modified. Therefore, we consider relevant to carry out the present study as it would allow us to analyze the potential existence of a spatio-temporal pattern in the incidence of AML in Spain.
Patients with acute leukaemia requiring induction or consolidation chemotherapy and those requiring a haematopoietic stem cell transplant are at high risk of fever and infection when they have low white cell counts (neutropenic fever). The causes of neutropenic fever are frequently unknown and patients are treated with broad antibiotics, without a clear target to what is being treated. This study will prospectively enroll patients who are receiving chemotherapy for acute leukaemia or for a stem cell transplant and compare the diagnostic utility of bacterial and fungal PCR performed directly off blood drawn, to the standard blood culture. Patients who have persistent fever after 72 hours of antibiotics will then be randomized to have either the interventional scan (PET/CT) or the conventional scan (standard CT) to look for a source of infection. Diagnostic yield, change in management and outcomes will be compared between arms.
