Filter by:Hospice care at the end of life (EOL) includes a multidisciplinary team that helps patients and families focus on symptom control and quality of life. For patients with "solid" (e.g. lung, breast) cancers it has been shown to improve quality of life for both patients and families. Unfortunately, patients with blood cancers (e.g. leukemia, lymphoma) often delay their enrollment and receive more aggressive care at the EOL. One factor in this delay is the inability for patients to receive blood transfusions while on hospice. Patients with blood cancers often require frequent blood transfusions near the EOL for symptom control. The structure of Medicare hospice benefit makes coverage for transfusions financially unfeasible for hospice agencies, and therefore patients with blood cancers will delay enrollment onto hospice in order to continue to receive blood transfusions. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether removing this financial burden, through external funding of blood transfusions for patients while on hospice, will encourage patients with blood cancers to enroll on hospice earlier and ultimately improve their and their caregivers EOL care.
Longitudinal cohort study; measurements before start of systemic therapy and one year later.
This study is a phase Ib/II study of Max-40279-01 in combination with Azacitidine (AZA) in patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML). This study include Phase Ib and Phase II study. The phase Ib study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MAX-40279-01 in combination with Azacitidine (AZA) in patients with Relapsed or Refractory AML. The phase II study is designed to preliminarily assess the efficacy and safety of Max-40279-01 in combination with Azacitidine (AZA) in patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML).
Despite advances in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the prognosis in adults is still poor, largely due to the resistance of treatment at diagnosis or early relapse. Among the strategies associated with the treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is rehabilitation and physical medicine in order to improve the quality of life, body composition, fitness, strength and improve the attachment and acceptance of their treatment
A study of acalabrutinib plus venetoclax (AV) versus venetoclax plus obinutuzumab (VO) in previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
Patients with extramedullary leukemia were identified over 10 years (January 2003 to September 2019). Clinicopathological,genetic-molecular features were identified and survival outcomes were studied and analyzed.
Single-Arm phase 2 trial evaluating efficacy of incorporating Daratumumab to treatment of newly diagnosed primary plasma cell leukemia. Treatment will be based on Dara-VRd induction followed by first ASCT, Dara-VRd for first consolidation, second ASCT, Dara-VRd for 1 year as second consolidation and Lenalidomide for 1 year.
This is a national, multicenter, phase II clinical trial to evaluate the potential benefit of pre-transplant consolidation and post-transplant maintenance with navitoclax and venetoclax in patients with T-ALL, LBL and MPAL T/M in first complete remission designated for allogeneic transplantation. Pre-transplantation consolidation with venetoclax and navitoclax: Patients in CR designated for transplantation will be treated with venetoclax 400 mg QD and navitoclax 50mg QD according to the RP2D presented by Pullarkat et al. (Cancer Discov . 2021 Feb 16;candisc.1465.2020. doi: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-20-1465.) for two 28 day cycles. Following 2 cycles re-staging marrow including MRD assessment and imaging as need will be followed by alloSCT according to local protocol. Post-transplantation maintenance with venetoclax and navitoclax: Within 90 days from alloSCT patients will be started on venetoclax and navitoclax maintenance. Due to lack of data regarding the toxicity of navitoclax and venetoclax in the ALL post alloSCT maintenance setting a dose escalation scheme based on the BOIN design will be applied as outlined (TBD) with a maximal dose of venetoclax 400 mg QD and navitoclax 50mg QD according to the RP2D presented by Pullarkat et al. (Cancer Discov . 2021 Feb 16;candisc.1465.2020. doi: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-20-1465).
Phase I Dose Escalation Study of CART19 Cells for Adult Patients With Relapsed / Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
In this prospective study, 30 newly untreated elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML) who were not suitable for standard chemotherapy were enrolled to observe the efficacy and side effects of venetoclax (VEN) combined with azacytidine (AZA) and chemotherapy in newly treated elderly patients with AML. Overall survival (OS), complete remission rate/complete remission with incomplete recovery of blood cell count (CR/ CRi) were used as the primary endpoints, and time to response (TTR), duration of response (DOR), mortality, and recurrence rate were used as secondary endpoints,and the incidence of adverse events were evaluated.
