Filter by:The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the combination of rituximab and high dose methylprednisolone can be given together, can reduce the amount of cancer cells that are present prior to starting venetoclax, and therefore make it safer to take venetoclax. Patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) will be treated in this study. Subjects will be assessed for their risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), a potentially serious side effect associated with venetoclax and rituxan. TLS is caused by the fast breakdown of cancer cells. TLS can lead to kidney failure or abnormal heart rhythm. Depending on their TLS risk, patients will be assigned to one of two treatment arms. Patients who are at high risk for TLS at baseline will receive HDMP/Rituximab for 1 cycle before beginning venetoclax. Patients who are at low risk for TLS at baseline will not receive HDMP/Rituximab and will instead start directly with venetoclax. Once the proper dose of venetoclax is reached, both arms will continue venetoclax for up to 2 years and receive rituximab for 5 cycles. The purpose is to determine if HDMP/Rituximab prior to venetoclax is efficient at reducing tumor burden and lowering the risk of developing TLS. Although all of these drugs are approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with CLL or SLL, and although the combination of rituximab and venetoclax is approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with CLL or SLL, the combination and dosing schedule in this trial are considered experimental.
This is a open label, phase Ib/II study. All patients are diagnosed with AML, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-3. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AK117 + azacitidine in subjects with AML.
To investigate limited course of treatment of Zebutinib combined with immunochemotherapy for patients with newly treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia without 17p-/TP53 mutation
This research is being done to see if the drug Inqov is effective in reducing the chance of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) relapsing after standard of care stem cell transplant. - This research study involves the study drug Inqovi, which is a combination of the drugs decitabine and cedazuridine.
Determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of VIP152 as monotherapy or in combination with a BTKi in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Richter Syndrome
This study aimed to investigate the performance of next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques measuring immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH)-variable, diversity, and joining (V[D]J) clonal rearrangements (IgH-V[D]J NGS) compared with flow cytometry (FCM) in detecting of minimal residual disease (MRD) for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with South Chinese Children Leukemia Group (SCCLG)-ALL 2016, and to predict the relapse of the disease in the early stage and to assess the prognosis, so as to provide the basis for early intervention treatment and reduce the hematological relapse and improve the survival rate.
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often receive a drug called daunorubicin. Daunorubicin is a type of drug called an anthracycline, which increases the risk of some damage to the heart. Beta blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) are two types of drugs that are often used (and are FDA approved) to treat the type of damage to the heart caused by anthracyclines. They have also been used in some populations to prevent this type of heart damage. In this study, participants will be randomly assigned to either preventively take a beta blocker and ACEi or not to receive these. The primary purpose of the study is to look at how often people in each group develop this type of heart damage. The study investigators will also collect data about your quality of life and other changes in your heart function. Frequency and severity of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity among patients receiving acute myeloid leukemia (AML) chemotherapy is unknown. We hypothesize that up-titrating study agents to maximum tolerated dosage at the time of induction (starting treatment for AML) will prevent the development of systolic dysfunction as determined on serial echocardiography.
This phase 2 trial studies the immune response to GEO-CM04S1 (previously designated as COH04S1) compared to standard of care (SOC) mRNA SARS-COV-2 vaccine in patients with blood cancer who have received stem cell transplant or cellular therapy. GEO-CM04S1 belongs to a category called modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccines, created from a new version of MVA, called synthetic MVA. GEO-CM04S1 works by inducing immunity (the ability to recognize and fight against an infection) to SARS-CoV-2. The immune system is stimulated to produce antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 that would block the virus from entering healthy cells. The immune system also grows new disease fighting T cells that can recognize and destroy infected cells. Giving GEO-CM04S1 after cellular therapy may work better in reducing the chances of contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) or developing a severe form of COVID-19 disease in patients with blood cancer compared to SOC mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.
The study compares two acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) prophylaxis regimens: CD24Fc vs placebo with the standard GVHD prophylaxis of tacrolimus / methotrexate.
This phase II trial studies the effects of venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax and 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. Cedazuridine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine may help to control acute myeloid leukemia.
