Filter by:This study is evaluating the safety and efficacy of a new BTK inhibitor, acalabrutinib, for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well omacetaxine mepesuccinate, cytarabine, and decitabine work in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Omacetaxine mepesuccinate, cytarabine, and decitabine may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The relapse leukemia patients after transplantation were divided into two groups randomly. Group D1: patients received first-donor stem cells infusion(DSI) treatment with or without chemotherapy; group D2: patients received second-donor DSI treatment with or without chemotherapy. The second donors were preferably donors who were genetically related and had more HLA-match locus. The re-induction chemotherapy regimen was primarily MAT(mitoxantrone, cytarabine, Teniposide ) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and VMCLD(vincristine, Teniposide, cyclophosphamide, L-Asparaginase, Dexamethasone) for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), and no graft versus host disease(GVHD) prevention was conducted pre- and post- therapy.
Patients with relapsed or refractory leukemia often develop resistance to chemotherapy. For this reason, we are attempting to use T cells obtained directly from the patient, which can be genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The CAR enables the T cell to recognize and kill the leukemic cell through the recognition of CD19, a protein expressed of the surface of the leukemic cell in patients with CD19+ leukemia. This is a phase 1/2 study designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose of the CAR+ T cells as well as to determine the efficacy. The phase 1 cohort is restricted to those patients who have already had an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). The phase 2 is open to all patients regardless of having a history of HCT.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if IPI-145 can help to control the disease in patients with ALL. The safety of the study drug will also be studied.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether Fludarabine in combination with cytarabine is more effective than high-dose cytarabine in post-remission therapy for patients with AML1-ETO acute myeloid leukemia.
Retrospective evaluation on the effect of splenic irradiation on clinical and hematological response and toxicity in patients with chronic lymphatic leukaemia (CLL).
This phase 2 clinical trial studies how well CPX-351 (liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin) works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
The present project is a multicenter, phase II trial which aims at evaluating if the administration of azacytidine (Vidaza®) combined to donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) could improve the response rate to DLI in the population of patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
This study is a clinical study aiming at establishing immunological assays for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of WT-1, Survivin and HPV16 E7-specific immune responses in cancer patients. Such a study will allow the development of suitable immunological tools to be used in assessing response in a subsequent phase I study aiming at evaluating therapeutic vaccine candidates targeting WT-1, Survivin and/or HPV16 E7-expressing tumors. In addition, this study will help defining the baseline cancer-associated immune responses in the selected patient population. Cervical and ovarian cancer patients, as well as leukemia patients, will be included in this study. WT-1, Survivin and HPV-specific immune responses will be monitored in these patients by ex vivo and cultured IFNg ELISpot as well as tetramer staining.
