Filter by:This is a Phase 2a, Open-label, one arm study in which the eligible patients will be treated with IV Nerofe, three times a week in 28 days cycles (up to 12 cycles). Evaluation will include safety procedures, blood level of study drug in certain time points, immune system response and tests checking the mechanism of the drug action.
This observational study aims to study the effectiveness and safety of Obinutuzumab in common clinical practice settings in Argentina. The study population comprises all patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that have received the indication for treatment with Obinutuzumab as per routine clinical practice.
The aim of this study is to look for predisposing mutations in patients and relatives affected by AML and MDS with familial history of myeloid or, less frequently, lymphoid malignancies. Taking advantage of a next generation sequencing (NGS) platform, screening for known and unknown mutations potentially associated with the disease will be done. The screening will be performed on affected and unaffected family members, in order to outline new pedigrees that either validate previous findings or constitute novel discoveries.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well Lactobacillus plantarum works in preventing acute graft versus host disease in children undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Lactobacillus plantarum may help prevent the development of gastrointestinal graft versus host disease in children, adolescents, and young adults undergoing donor stem cell transplant.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving genetically changed immune cells, called CAR-NK cells, after chemotherapy will improve the disease in stem cell transplant patients with relapsed (has returned) and/or refractory (has not responded to treatment) B-cell lymphoma or leukemia. Also, researchers want to find the highest tolerable dose of CAR-NK cells to give to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma or leukemia. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. This is an investigational study. The making of and infusion of genetically changed NK cells and the drug AP1903 (if you receive it, explained below) are not FDA approved or commercially available for use in this type of disease. They are currently being used for research purposes only. The chemotherapy drugs in this study (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and mesna) are commercially available and FDA approved. Up to 36 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
This is a multicenter (S. Korea/US), Phase Ib, open-label, dose-finding study to assess safety, PK, PD, and preliminary efficacy of CWP232291 administered in combination with ara-C in subjects with relapsed or refractory AML. The primary objectives in phase 2a is to assess the efficacy of CWP232291 administered in combination with cytarabine (response rate complete remission [RR-CR]/complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery [CRi]/partial remission [PR]).
One-third to one-half of patients with AML relapse and in general relapsed AML patients have a poor prognosis. The treatment of relapsed AML consists of induction chemotherapy followed by Allogenic Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT). However, at present there is no standard salvage chemotherapy regimen for relapsed AML, as no study has shown any one regimen to be significantly superior. Anthracyclines, Fludarabine, Etoposide and cytarabineare active agents in AMLand have been used as monotherapy and in combination in refractory and relapsed AML patients. According to previous studies the present CR rate of different regimens ranges from 50-70%. A retrospective analysis (unpublished) conducted at IRCH, AIIMS on relapsed AML patients treated with ADE (Cytarabine, Daunorubicin and Etoposide) chemotherapy showed the CR rates of approximately 70%. Therefore, we have planned this study to test the efficacy and toxicity of ADE induction chemotherapy in relapsed AML patients in a prospective manner.
This study evaluates the impact of a 12-week theory-based exercise telephone counselling program (versus a self-directed exercise group) on closing the exercise intention-behavior gap in a sample of hematologic cancer survivors.
NOTE: This is a research study and is not meant to be a substitute for clinical genetic testing. Families may never receive results from the study or may receive results many years from the time they enroll. If you are interested in clinical testing please consider seeing a local genetic counselor or other genetics professional. If you have already had clinical genetic testing and meet eligibility criteria for this study as shown in the Eligibility Section, you may enroll regardless of the results of your clinical genetic testing. While it is well recognized that hereditary factors contribute to the development of a subset of human cancers, the cause for many cancers remains unknown. The application of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has expanded knowledge in the field of hereditary cancer predisposition. Currently, more than 100 cancer predisposing genes have been identified, and it is now estimated that approximately 10% of all cancer patients have an underlying genetic predisposition. The purpose of this protocol is to identify novel cancer predisposing genes and/or genetic variants. For this study, the investigators will establish a Data Registry linked to a Repository of biological samples. Health information, blood samples and occasionally leftover tumor samples will be collected from individuals with familial cancer. The investigators will use NGS approaches to find changes in genes that may be important in the development of familial cancer. The information gained from this study may provide new and better ways to diagnose and care for people with hereditary cancer. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: - Establish a registry of families with clustering of cancer in which clinical data are linked to a repository of cryopreserved blood cells, germline DNA, and tumor tissues from the proband and other family members. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: - Identify novel cancer predisposing genes and/or genetic variants in families with clustering of cancer for which the underlying genetic basis is unknown.
This is a multi-institutional Simon's optimal two-stage phase II trial of CD3/CD19 depleted, ALT-803 activated, haploidentical donor NK cells and subcutaneous ALT-803 given after lymphodepleting chemotherapy (CY/FLU) for the treatment of refractory or released acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
