Filter by:This trial collects feedback from patients to develop a video game in improving the outcomes in stem cell transplant survivors. A video game may help to improve health behaviors for leukemia or lymphoma patients after stem cell transplant.
The goals of this study are to learn about the effectiveness, the side-effects, if waiting to give the idarubicin and cytarabine may change the side effects or effectiveness, and to identify factors to predict for responses to this therapy. The trial will examine combination of three chemotherapy drugs. These drugs are decitabine, idarubicin, and cytarabine.
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is one of the best, and sometimes the only, option for the treatment of leukemia. However, GVHD rate was still high after haploidentical HSCT. It was found in our previous study that CD4/CD8>=1.16、CD56bright NK>1.9×106/kg in the graft was associated with higher risk of developing acute Graft-versus-host Disease (GVHD). The study hypothesis: Risk stratification-directed low-dose glucocorticoid prophylaxis for acute GVHD after unmanipulated haploidentical blood and marrow transplantation can reduce the incidence of acute GVHD
PRI-724 is a new investigational drug being studied to treat subjects with cancer who have advanced myeloid malignancies. PRI-724 is thought to work by blocking the Wnt signaling pathway that cancer cells need to grow and spread (metastasize).
A Phase I/II multicenter study of IY5511HCl in Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myeloid leukemia patients without optimal response or tolerance to Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitors (Imatinib and/ or Dasatinib, Nilotinib) In this study, The efficacy and safety of CML patients who are resistant or intolerable to imatinib in the Chronic and Accelerated phases. Phase 1 1. To investigate the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) of oral Radotinib HCl bid (twice daily) in the Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML subjects who are resistant, suboptimal responsive, or intolerant to imatinib OR resistant or intolerant to at least one second-generation targeted anticancer agent while being resistant, suboptimal responsive, or intolerant to imatinib simultaneously. Phase 2 1. To investigate safety of oral Radotinib HCl in CML patients who are resistant or intolerable to imatinib in the chronic and accelerated phases. 2. To evaluate hematologic and cytogenetic efficacy of oral Radotinib HCl in CML patients who are resistant or intolerable to imatinib in the chronic and accelerated phases.
This is a randomised, controlled, open-label intervention study. It is hypothesized that supplementation with a fibre enriched sip feed will improve the nutritional status, gut microbiota and quality of life (QOL) of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and may enhance their immune response. This could give them a better chance to finish their induction chemotherapy successfully with fewer side effects.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether on course (6 cycles) of consolidation therapy with Revlimid can shrink or slow the growth of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) in the bone marrow.
Approximately 30% of patients who are candidates for bone marrow transplants do not have an HLA-matched, or close to matched, donor available. For this reason, doctors have been testing ways to make transplants from HLA-partially matched donors as safe and effective as transplants from HLA-matched donors. This study is being done to test the safety and the treatment results of a specific kind of transplant. In this transplant, blood from two donors will be used. Each donor will share one half of your HLA type. Blood from both donors will be transplanted at the same time.
Hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT)are one treatment option for people with leukemia or lymphoma. Family members,unrelated donors or banked umbilical cordblood units with similar tissue type can be used for HCT. This study will compare the effectiveness of two new types of bone marrow transplants in people with leukemia or lymphoma: one that uses bone marrow donated from family members with only partially matched bone marrow; and, one that uses two partially matched cord blood units.
This trial investigates stem cell transplants from partially mismatched donors in patients with blood and bone marrow cancers. The trial will test two kinds of transplants - a full intensity transplant using a high dose of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and a reduced intensity transplant with lower doses of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Patients will be entered for the treatment pathway that is most appropriate for their level of health and fitness
