Filter by:A prospective, observational, comparative study with no intervention.The objective of the study to compare the efficiency of detecting glycemic abnormalities using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGMs) versus Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) and HbA1C (Glycated Hemoglobin) and their relation to iron overload detected by T2* MRI of the pancreas in high-risk patients due to insulin deficiency (potential beta cell injury) and those with insulin resistance and to study the different factors that may affect the glycemic control in these patients in relation to their results like the Dose of corticosteroids and chemotherapy in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies, Liver function in ALL and Hemoglobinopathies, and Serum ferritin in Hemoglobinopathies and their transfusion status. Using Validated Tools with Permission, the participants will be selected through probability (random) sampling method with expected subjects numbers ALL/L: 30-50, Thalassemia Major: 20, Sickle cell disease: 20.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, or double-hit lymphoma/leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate liposome, dexamethasone and bortezomib, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of entospletinib (ENTO) monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy in Japanese participants.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of palbociclib when given alone and in combination with sorafenib, decitabine, or dexamethasone in treating patients with leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or that does not respond to previous treatment (refractory). Palbociclib, sorafenib, and decitabine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving palbociclib alone and in combination with sorafenib, decitabine, or dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with recurrent or refractory leukemia.
Since the debut of imatinib, the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI), more than two decades ago, the prognosis of patients with chronic myelogenous leukaemia (CML) has continued to improve. It has been shown that life expectancy of CML patients is approaching that of the general population nowadays. Currently, indefinite use of TKIs in patients with chronic-phase CML who achieve optimal response remains the standard practice. Nevertheless, the concepts of "treatment-free remission" and "functional" cure have been hotly discussed in recent years. A number of major international clinical trials have demonstrated that about 40-60% of CML patients who previously enjoyed deep molecular response on TKI manage to stay free from molecular relapse after cessation of TKI therapy. Local experience of TKI cessation is lacking. This study aims to recruit patients diagnosed with CML, chronic phase who are treated with TKIs and remain in stable deep molecular response for at least two years. It is planned to stop TKI in these patients with regular monitoring, and determine their outcomes.
Phase 2, single-arm, open-label trial. Patients will receive bosutinib for the duration of the study.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil work in preventing graft versus host disease in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing myeloablative or reduced intensity donor stem cell transplant. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft versus host disease). Giving high dose cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of 211^astatine(At)-BC8-B10 before donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or mixed-phenotype acute leukemia. Radioactive substances, such as astatine-211, linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as BC8, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells and have less of an effect on healthy cells before donor stem cell transplant.
To determine the maximum tolerated and / or recommended Phase II dose of oral mutant IDH1 (mIDH1) inhibitor BAY1436032 and to characterize its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical efficacy in patients with mIDH1-R132X advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
Any time the words "you," "your," "I," or "me" appear, it is meant to apply to the potential participant. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety and tolerability of 3 different doses of CD33-CAR-T cells (referred to throughout the consent as "T-cells") in patients who have CD33-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is relapsed (has come back) or refractory (has not responded to treatment). CD33-CAR-T is made by genetically modifying (changing) your T-cells (a type of white blood cell). T-cells are genetically changed to help target leukemia cells. This is an investigational study. CD33-CAR-T is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. The study doctor can explain how the study drug is designed to work. Up to 39 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
