Filter by:This study is being performed to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary clinical effects of BVD-523 given orally, twice daily for 21-day cycles, in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
This pilot randomized controlled trial examined the feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of an intervention to improve sleep quality and decrease fatigue levels in children with a diagnosis of ALL, during maintenance treatment. Families were randomized to usual care or the intervention. The intervention included a sleep hygiene and relaxation education session with a nurse practitioner, literature for home, two story books, and a follow-up phone call. Self-reported measures were used in addition to actigraphy to measure children's quality and quantity of sleep.
This study evaluates the efficacy of high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphomide as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with different risk of GVHD. The risk-adapted strategy involves using single-agent cyclophosphomide in recipients of matched bone marrow graft, and combining cyclophosphomide with tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil in recipients of matched peripheral blood stem cells and mismatched bone marrow.
To evaluate the tolerability and pharmacokinetics of SGI-110 when administered subcutaneously to Japanese patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of carfilzomib when given together with the hyperfractionated (hyper)-cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexamethasone (CVAD) chemotherapy regimen in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexamethasone, 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. Giving carfilzomib with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
Specific Aim 1: To determine whether endogenous metabolomics-based biomarkers obtained before IV BU administration can predict IV BU clearance. Specific Aim 2: To characterize IV BU metabolism by metabolomics. Specific Aim 3: To identify covariates influencing IV BU pharmacokinetics.
This study consists of two parts: A Phase 1 dose-escalation part that will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of venetoclax in combination with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC), define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and generate data to support a recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD) in treatment-naïve participants with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML); and a Phase 2 part that will evaluate if the RPTD has sufficient efficacy and acceptable toxicity to warrant further development of the combination therapy.
This phase II trial studies the best dose and how well liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 (CPX-351) works in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia and who are at risk for not responding well to treatment. Liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 combines two chemotherapy drugs that are known to help each other work better, and may work to stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the cells from dividing.
This phase II trial studies how well sotrastaurin acetate works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia, or Richter's transformation that has returned or that does not respond to treatment. Sotrastaurin acetate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Erwinaze will be administered intravenously at a dose of 25,000 IU/m2 (dose cohort 0) for 6 doses MWF over a period of 2 weeks to 9 patients (as described below and in the following schema). Blood counts, chemistries including bilirubin, amylase and lipase, and coagulation studies including fibrinogen will be measured and reviewed before each asparaginase dose. Fibrinogen (<100 mg/dL) can be replaced with cryoprecipitate before each dose at the discretion of treating physician. Treatment will be stopped for elevation of amylase, lipase or direct bilirubin above normal range.
