Filter by:The study aims to determine the feasibility of a 6-month low glycemic dietary intervention in children and adolescents undergoing treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Aberrant RNA splicing and mutations in spliceosome complex in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) are frequent. It have been shown that some splicing variants had a prognostic value in AML. AML are characterized by their propensity to relapse because of the persistence of leukaemia initiating cells (LICs). The aim of this study is to determine the splice variants on AML initiator cells and define a splicing pattern.
This is a non-controlled, single-arm, open-label clinical trial to describe the PK, PD, immunogenicity and safety of ASNase. All subjects enrolled will receive the IP recombinant ASNase (Spectrila®). Since Spectrila is already approved in the European Economic Area for first-line treatment of ALL patients of all age groups and showed similar efficacy and safety in comparison to Asparaginase medac no blinding or control groups are necessary. As underlying treatment protocol the BRALL 2014 treatment protocol will be used.
This is a single arm, open-label, uni-center, phase I/II study to determine the safety and efficacy of an experimental therapy called BinD19 cells in patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma, who are chemo-refractory, relapsed after allogeneic SCT, or are otherwise ineligible for allogeneic stem cell transplant.
Evaluate the safety (P-I), pharmacokinetics and anti-tumor effect of immunotherapy of autologous T cells genetically modified to express anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) (TBI-1501) for relapsed or refractory CD19+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This study will test the safety and effectiveness of a combination of investigational new drug called BL-8040 and atezolizumab to find out what effects, good or bad, this treatment has on medical condition. Atezolizumab is manufactured by Roche and is approved by FDA for other indications while BL-8040 is in late stages of clinical development. This is an investigational study. Approximately 60 patients will take part at multiple centers worldwide. It is an open-label study, which means that both subjects and the doctors will know which treatment you are receiving. All participants in the study will receive the investigational drug, BL-8040, both alone and in combination with atezolizumab. In other words, there will be no placebo (dummy drug). The duration of the treatment period of the study will be up to 2 years and will be followed by one year safety follow up. The study will consist of: - a screening period of 21 days to allow your doctor to assess your suitability for enrollment into the study - a treatment period of combination regimen of 21 day cycles for up to 2 years - a follow-up period of up to 30 days after completion of combined treatment with BL-8040 + Atezolizumab - an additional follow up period for up to one year after the completion of the treatment
The purpose of this study is to determine the most appropriate dose for the combination of ibrutinib and pembrolizumab and to see if the combination is active for the disease. The study will monitor for any side effects and if the combination of ibrutinib and pembrolizumab works in the cancers being studied. There will be 2 experimental drugs given to the subject in this study. One experimental drug used in this study is called ibrutinib and the second is called pembrolizumab. This is the first time that ibrutinib will be used in combination with pembrolizumab. This combination is considered experimental. Experimental means that it is still being tested to see if it is safe and effective. Ibrutinib is a new drug known as a 'Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor'. Ibrutinib blocks an enzyme (protein) that affects how certain types of blood cancer cells grow and survive. Blocking this enzyme is a very important mechanism in killing blood cancer cells. Ibrutinib has been approved in the United States, Israel, and the European Union for use in adult patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have received at least one prior therapy. Pembrolizumab is an antibody (a type of human protein) that is being tested to see if it will allow the body's immune system to work against tumor cells. Pembrolizumab is approved for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with melanoma (skin cancer) who have received prior treatments. Pembrolizumab is not FDA approved to treat patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia [CLL] and mantle cell lymphoma [MCL].
This is a phase II trial designed to test the safety and efficacy (complete response [CR]) of related donor HLA-haploidentical NK-cell based therapy for the treatment of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Patients with newly diagnosed AML who failed to achieve a complete remission (CR) after one or two standard induction attempts receive after a preparative regimen of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine a single infusion of CD3-/CD19- NK cells or CD3-/CD56+ NK cells followed by a short course of Interleukin-2 (IL-2) to facilitate NK cell survival and expansion.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, double-blind, randomized study of pracinostat vs. placebo with azacitidine (AZA) as background therapy in patients ≥ 18 years of age with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML), excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia and cytogenetic low-risk AML, who are unfit to receive intensive remission induction chemotherapy due to age ≥ 75 years or comorbidities. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of two groups: Group A (experimental group) to receive pracinostat plus AZA and Group B (control group) to receive placebo plus AZA. Randomization will be stratified by cytogenetic risk category (intermediate vs. unfavorable-risk, according to SWOG Cytogenetic Risk Category Definitions) and ECOG performance status (0-1 vs. 2). Treatments will be administered based on 28-day cycles, with pracinostat/placebo administered orally once every other day, 3 times a week for 3 weeks, followed by one week of no treatment and AZA administered for 7 days of each cycle. Study treatment should continue until there is documented disease progression, relapse from complete remission (CR), or non-manageable toxicity. A minimum of 6 cycles may be required to achieve a complete remission. Once permanently discontinued from study treatment, patients will enter the Long-term Follow-up phase of the study and will be followed for assessment of disease progression, if applicable, and survival every 3 months (±1 month) until death. The end of this study is defined when 390 events (deaths) have occurred and the study is unblinded for final overall survival analysis. Patients who are receiving study treatment at the end of the study may have the opportunity to continue to receive the study drugs to which they were randomized to (Post- Study Observation Period), until the Sponsor informs the Investigators of the appropriate course of action based on the study results. The Post-Study Observation Period is defined as the period starting from the end of the study for a maximum of 12 months.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is the most common type of chronic leukemia, accounting for approximately 40% of all leukemias and mainly affecting older individuals. As it has a highly variable clinical course, identification of molecular and biological prognostic markers has provided new insights into the risk stratification of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
