Filter by:This is a Phase II, open-label, two strata, multicenter, prospective study of plerixafor-mobilized HLA-identical sibling allografts in recipients with hematological malignancies. This study will establish the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous plerixafor for this purpose.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well donor umbilical cord blood transplant with or without ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's cells. When the healthy stem cells and ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It is not yet known whether giving donor umbilical cord blood transplant plus ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells is more effective than giving a donor umbilical cord blood transplant alone.
This is a treatment guideline to allow routine clinical data to be collected and maintained in Oncore (clinical database) and the University of Minnesota Blood and Marrow Database as part of the historical database maintained by the department.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safe dose of EPZ-5676, to evaluate the safety of EPZ-5676 in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies, and to conduct a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of EPZ-5676 in patients with acute leukemias bearing rearrangements of the MLL gene. Currently this study is in the MLL-r restricted/expansion phase and is only enrolling patients with rearrangements involving the MLL gene, including 11q23 or partial tandem duplications (PTD).
Analyze the results of conditioning with once-daily dose intravenous busulfan and fludarabine in patients undergoing HLA identical sibling Allogeneic HSCT for myeloid malignancies.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the addition of blood stem cells from a close family member, when added to umbilical cord blood will make the transplant safer.
This is a Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of second-line lenalidomide monotherapy for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients who failed to hypomethylating agents.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well erlotinib hydrochloride works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This study will assess the safety and tolerability of milatuzumab (IMMU-115) when added to a standard regimen to prevent Graft vs. Host Disease (GVHD) in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing stem cell transplant.
Approved dosing schedule of azacitidine for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is 75 mg/m^2/day subcutaneous for 7 consecutive days every 28 days, which is based on the data from standard chemotherapy regimen and a Phase I safety clinical trial. Since the optimal dosage of this drug has not been found yet, it remains as a subject of clinical study that needs to be examined. If initial toxicity is minimized by developing dosage/regimen that replaces the standard therapy, it will be possible to provide continuous treatment with increased convenience by patients and treating physicians as well as improvement for safety in elderly patients or those with serious cytopenia. In addition, it is expected to lead to a better response by strictly keeping a treatment schedule. Recent US study showed that 5-day regimen showed similar treatment results, but retrospective data from Spain showed lower response rate in 5-day regimen. Considering the recent circumstances around dosage and schedule of azacitidine in lower risk MDS, a Phase II clinical trial is planned in lower risk MDS patients in order to explore the efficacy in 5-day treatment by comparing prospectively with 7-day standard regimen.
