Filter by:This study involves evaluating a combination of chemotherapy drugs known as "CLAG-GO" [cladribine, cytarabine, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO)] in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has not responded well to standard therapy or has returned after an initial remission (relapsed). The trial will be conducted at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC). Potential participants will go through a screening period to see if they are eligible to join the study. If eligible, participants will be hospitalized for 4-5 weeks to receive study treatment with CLAG-GO, called induction chemotherapy. If tests show that the cancer is in remission after induction chemotherapy, participants may undergo further chemotherapy (known as consolidation) or may proceed with bone marrow/stem cell transplantation. Patients who receive consolidation chemotherapy and remain in remission may have up to 8 cycles of outpatient maintenance therapy. A cycle lasts about 28 days. All participants will be monitored carefully for both side effects and to see if the study treatment is working. Lab tests and exams will be conducted throughout the entire study. In addition, special studies will be done at various time points to try to understand better how the drugs work and which patients are likely to respond best.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well Vyxeos works in treating patients with intermediate and high-risk acute myeloid leukemia who have failed an initial cycle of standard cytarabine and daunorubicin chemotherapy. Vyxeos is a combination of both chemotherapy drugs cytarabine and daunorubicin contained in a liposome. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin, 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. Cytarabine and daunorubicin given together in liposomes may have fewer side effects and work better than cytarabine and daunorubicin given alone in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
This phase 1 study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a CAR-T cell therapy directed against two B cell antigens (CD19 CD20) and produced under good manufacturing practice (GMP) conditions using the closed system CliniMACS Prodigy device in B ALL.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well cladribine, idarubicin, cytarabine, and quizartinib work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that is newly diagnosed, has come back (relapsed), or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine, idarubicin, and cytarabine, 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. Quizartinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving quizartinib with cladribine, idarubicin, and cytarabine may help to control acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
Ponatinib has shown to induce deeper molecular responses compared with imatinib. Therefore, ponatinib treatment could increase the proportion of patients who could discontinue treatment successfully. This strategy that includes treatment change to a more powerful treatment before treatment discontinuation has not been evaluated in any of the previous clinical trials, and will be explored in the current study. In this framework, the purpose is to determine the rate of successful treatment-free remission (TFR) within the first 48 weeks following cessation of treatment in patients who achieved Molecular Response 4 (MR4) on imatinib and maintained MR4 on ponatinib after a switch from imatinib. Eligible patients have been previously treated with imatinib as unique tyrosine kinase inhibitor (at least 4 years) and have documented MR4 (at least 12 months) at the time of switch to ponatinib to study entry.
This is a first-in-human trial proposed to test CD19-specific CAR-T cells with edited endogenous HPK1 (XYF19 CAR-T cells) in patients with relapsed or refractory CD19+ leukemia or lymphoma. This is an investigational study designed as a single-center, open-label and single-arm clinical trial.
Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a multisystem disease with diverse manifestations, including progressive neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, respiratory disease, and genomic instability. One of the most important features of A-T is the increased predisposition to cancer, especially to lymphoid malignancies. Patients with A-T are generally excluded from collaborative clinical trials, their treatment outcomes and toxicity profiles have rarely been reported, and little is currently known concerning the treatment intensity required to provide a reasonable balance between efficacy and toxicity. The aims of this study are to build a large international de-identified database of children with A-T treated for leukemia and lymphoma, to investigate epidemiology and outcome of treatment, toxicity profiles and risk factors which impact outcome, in order to eventually enable the generation of data-based treatment recommendations for this population.
This is a multi-center clinical study in China using CliniMACS TCRα/β+ and CD45RA+ T cell depleted stem cell grafts from haploidentical donors for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in children.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of CAR T cell therapy against CD7-positive hematological malignancies using CD7 specific CAR T cells. The study also aims to learn more about the function of CD7 CAR T cells and their persistence in patients of hematological malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to collect human Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia tissue samples and medical information, in order to find out more about the causes and biology of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
