Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well ponatinib hydrochloride works as second line therapy in treating patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase that has not responded to initial treatment (first line) with imatinib mesylate, dasatinib, or nilotinib or cannot tolerate imatinib mesylate, dasatinib, or nilotinib. Ponatinib hydrochloride may stop or control the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is compare the efficacy of haplo-cord transplant (investigational arm) with that of a more commonly used procedure in which only the cells contained in one or two umbilical cords are infused (standard arm). We hypothesize that reduced intensity conditioning and haplo-cord transplant results in fast engraftment of neutrophils and platelets, low incidences of acute and chronic graft versus host disease, low frequency of delayed opportunistic infections, reduced transfusion requirements, shortened length of hospital stay and promising long term outcomes. We also hypothesize that umbilical cord blood selection can prioritize matching and better matched donors can be identified rapidly for most subjects.
An Open-label, Single arm, Multicenter Phase 2 Study of the Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor PCI-32765 (Ibrutinib) in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma with 17p Deletion
This is a dose finding study using a 3 + 3 dose escalation and expansion design to determine a Not Tolerated Dose (NTD), Optimal Biological Effect Dose (OBE) and / or Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD). These data will be used to establish a Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) for the combination of CC-292 and Rituximab in subjects with CLL.
This study will evaluate patients with blood cell cancers who are going to have an allogeneic (donor) blood stem cell transplant from a partially matched relative. The research study will test whether immune cells, called T cells, which come from the donor relative and are specially grown in the laboratory and then given back to the patient along with the stem cell transplant (T cell addback), can help the immune system recover faster after the transplant. As a safety measure, these T cells have been "programmed" with a "self-destruct switch" so that if, after they have been given to the patient, the T cells start to react against the tissues (called "graft versus host" disease, GVHD), the T cells can be destroyed.
This study aimed to assess the optimal duration of nilotinib 300 mg twice daily (BID) consolidation treatment in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), in order that patients remained in treatment-free remission (≥MR4.0) without molecular relapse 12 months after starting the Treatment-Free Remission (TFR) phase.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the complete remission/complete remission with incomplete recovery of blood counts (CR/CRi) rate for relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients.
This is a phase I trial of an investigational drug called GNKG168 in patients with relapsed and refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) who are in morphologic remission but are positive for Minimum Residual Disease (MRD). GNKG168 is a Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist. TLR agonists are a novel approach to stimulate an effective anti-tumor immune response as they are able to stimulate both innate and adaptive immune responses. There will be two strata i.e patients who have received hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and patients who have never undergone HSCT. GNKG168 will be administered as a 60 min iv infusion. One 14-day cycle consists of 5-day treatment followed by 9 day-rest. Patients will receive 2 cycles before evaluation. The primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of GNKG168 in relapsed ALL and AML patients.
The objective of the LEA-PsyCog project is to assess the prevalence of psychiatric disorders and psychocognitive impairments in adolescents surviving childhood leukemia . The second objective is to explore the complex relationships between psycocognitive development and soiciodemodemographics data, main characteristics of leukemia, treatments, side-effects, quality of life and characteristics of proxyies environment. 3. Materials and Methods The LEA study is based on the constitution of a multi-centric prospective cohort in 11 university hospitals: Bordeaux, Clermont-Ferrand, Grenoble, Lyon, Paris (Trousseau, Robert Debré, St Louis), Marseille, Montpellier, Nancy, Nice, Rennes. Are inclued in LEA all the children diagnosed and treated for acute leukemia since January 1980 (incident and prevalent cases), surviving at month 24 for the AML and ALL grafted in complete remission and at month 48 for the ALL not grafted in first complete remission. The LEA Psy-Cog study rests on a sample of the LEA cohort. Are included the patients 12-17-years-old from the PACA-Corse sub-cohort (administrative district of 4 million of people which corresponds to the Marseille and Nice centers). Patients from this two centers are the patients with the more important length of survey, allowing us to produce a not biaised estimation of prevalence rate. Finally, the choice of this subsample is supported by the proximity of the Mediterranean Center for Adolescent in Marseilles, specifically dedicated to the psychological follow-up of children suffering from cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of extended bendamustine in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
