Filter by:This trial studies how well a nutrition and physical activity intervention works in preventing excess weight gain in pediatric patients with leukemia or lymphoma treated with Treated with prednisone and/or dexamethasone. A nutrition and physical activity intervention may help develop healthier eating habits and prevent rapid excess weight gain in pediatric patients with leukemia or lymphoma who are receiving prednisone and/or dexamethasone.
The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of NEX-18a, a long-acting injectable azacitidine, in patients diagnosed with intermediate 2 or higher-risk MDS, CMML, or AML and already on treatment with azacitidine.
During the last decades hematologists have excelled at improving and refining the classification, diagnosis, and thus ultimately the therapeutic decision-making process for their patients. This continuous evolution proceeded in parallel to seminal discoveries in basic science such as FISH, PCR and NGS. So far, the current WHO classification serves as reference to diagnostic decision making and is largely based on 5 diagnostic pillars: cytomorphology of peripheral blood and/or bone marrow smears, histology and immunohistochemistry of bone marrow trephine biopsies or lymph nodes, immunophenotyping, chromosome banding analysis supplemented by FISH analysis, molecular genetics including PCR and targeted panel sequencing via NGS. This leads to a swift diagnosis in 90 % of all cases. The leftover 10 % remain a challenge for hematopathologists and clinicians alike and are resolved through interdisciplinary teams in the context of specialized boards. With the advent of high throughput sequencing (mainly WGS and WTS) the possibility of a comprehensive and detailed portrait of the genetic alterations - specifically in challenging cases - has become a realistic alternative to classical methods. In SIRIUS the investigators will prospectively challenge this hypothesis to address the question of how often a better or final diagnosis can be delivered by WGS and/or WTS and if unclear cases can be efficiently resolved.
Assessment of of the biological effects of curcumin on microbiota in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of anti-CD7 CAR T-cells in patients with refractory or relapsed T-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).
This project is a prospective, single-center study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and related mechanisms of azacitidine combined with low-dose dasatinib in maintenance therapy in patients with intermediate and high-risk acute myeloid leukemia(AML). The patients were randomly divided into azacitidine group and azacitidine combined with low-dose dasatinib group. The overall survival and disease-free survival were taken as the main end points, and the mortality and recurrence rate were taken as the secondary end points, meanwhile, the incidence of adverse events were evaluated. At the same time, the mRNA expressions of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1, DNMT3a, DNMT3b), tumor suppressor genes (TP53, P15, P16, P21, CDH1, DOK6, SHP1, PTPN11) and differentiation genes (pu.1, C/EBP α, C/EBP β) were detected. Pyrophosphate sequencing was used to detect the methylation level of the promoter region of these tumor suppressor genes. Western Blot was used to detect apoptosis proteins (caspase3, caspase8) and phosphorylated proteins (pSTAT3, pSTAT5, pAKT). The proportion of apoptotic population of bone marrow cells was determined by flow cytometry. Therefore, the data in this study will reflect the efficacy and safety of azacitidine or azacitidine combined with low-dose dasatinib in real-world maintenance therapy in patients with medium and high-risk AML.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-0482. There are 2 parts of this study. Part 1 is a dose escalation which will follow an accelerated titration design (ATD) for participants with relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML or CMML. Part 2 is a dose expansion for participants with R/R AML.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a immunophenotype-adapted approach using CAR T-cells in patients with high-risk, refractory or relapsed B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).
This is a phase 1, dose-escalation study (using 3 + 3 dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) criteria) evaluating the safety and tolerability of XmAb18968, as well as establishing a recommended phase II dose (RP2D) in subjects with T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T cell lymphoblastic (lymphoma) T-LBL (Group A) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (Group B).
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects, best dose, and effect of tagraxofusp and decitabine in treating patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Tagraxofusp consists of human interleukin 3 (IL3) linked to a toxic agent called DT388. IL3 attaches to IL3 receptor positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers DT388 to kill them. Chemotherapy drugs, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving tagraxofusp and decitabine may help to control the disease in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia.
