Filter by:The purpose of this study is to reduce the side-effects and discomfort of anti-leukemia therapy, to attain long-term control of the disease and to hopefully eradicate it.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in cancer cells. It may also help doctors understand how cancer cells respond to treatment with choline magnesium trisalicylate. PURPOSE: This pilot clinical trial is studying gene expression in cancer cells during chemotherapy and the safety of choline magnesium trisalicylate in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether voriconazole is as effective as antifungal prophylaxis in patients undergoing chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Hypothesis: Voriconazole is superior to placebo in the prophylaxis of lung infiltrates until day 21 after the start of induction chemotherapy.
This is a Phase 2, multi-center, open label, randomized clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficiency of SDX-101 in combination with chlorambucil (CLB) and chlorambucil alone in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) patients. The study treatment period will be approximately 24-26 weeks with a follow-up period of approximately 8 weeks. Following the end of treatment, patients with a confirmed complete response, partial response or stable disease will be followed for up to 2 years to assess time to disease progression. Approximately 80 patients with documented diagnosis of B-cell CLL by standard clinical and immunophenotyping criteria will be enrolled into the SDX-101-03 study. This study is being conducted in the following European countries: France, Germany, Poland, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
The primary goal of the study is to show that the treatment-related mortality of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation an be significantly reduced by using a combination of 8 Gy total-body-irradiation and fludarabine in comparison to the conventional combination of 12 Gy TBI and 120 mg/kg Cyclophosphamide.
This research project will focus on whether it is safe and effective to rely on donor cells to prevent relapse of leukemia, lymphoma, or other blood cancer after bone marrow stem cell transplant.
This is a phase 2, single-arm, open-label, multi-center study to establish the safety and efficacy of Troxatyl™ (troxacitabine) administered as a continuous infusion for 5 days to subjects with AML.
This is a single center Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CC-401 in subjects with refractory acute myelogenous leukemia.
This study investigated the safety and efficacy of 400mg Versus 800mg imatinib in patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) using molecular endpoints.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, daunorubicin, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving combination chemotherapy together with tipifarnib may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of tipifarnib when given together with combination chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
