Filter by:The study's primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of Panobinostat when administered within 150 days after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and given in conjunction with standard immunosuppressive therapy after HSCT for patients with high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Secondary objectives are - To determine safety and tolerability of panobinostat - To determine overall and disease-free survival at 12 months after HSCT - To evaluate immunoregulatory properties of panobinostat - To evaluate patient-reported health-related quality of life (HRQL) The hypothesis of this study is that panobinostat can be an effective drug in preventing relapse of MDS and AML patients with high-risk features after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC-HSCT) while at the same time reducing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) with preservation of graft-versus-leukemia (GvL) effect.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if clofarabine when given in combination with cytarabine can help to control myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) after the disease could not be controlled with standard therapy. The safety of this treatment will also be studied. Clofarabine is designed to interfere with the growth and development of cancer cells. Cytarabine is designed to insert itself into DNA (the genetic material of cells) of cancer cells and stop the DNA from repairing itself.
The purpose of the trial is to study how the elderly patients who have previously undergone treatment for acute myeloid leukemia and high-rRisk myelodysplastic syndromes, respond to a combined treatment with azacitidine and lenalidomide.
This is a worldwide, three-part (Part 1: open-label, Part 2: randomized, double-blind, Part 3: extension), multi-center study to evaluate the effect of eltrombopag in subjects with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy. This objective will be assessed by a composite primary endpoint that consists of the following: the proportion of ≥Grade 3 hemorrhagic adverse events, or platelet counts <10 Gi/L, or platelet transfusions. Patients with MDS or AML and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy will be enrolled in the study. No low or intermediate-1 risk MDS subjects will be enrolled in the study. Subjects must have had at least one of the following during the 4 weeks prior to enrolment: platelet count <10 Gi/L, platelet transfusion, or symptomatic hemorrhagic event. Supportive standard of care (SOC), including hydroxyurea, will be allowed as indicated by local practice throughout the study. The study will have 3 sequential parts. Subjects who are enrolled in Part 1 (open-label) cannot be enrolled in Part 2 of the study (randomized, double-blind); however, subjects who complete the treatment period for Part 1 or Part 2 (8 and 12 weeks, respectively) will continue in Part 3 (extension) if the investigator determines that the subject is receiving clinical benefit on treatment.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if SB1518 can help to control myelodysplastic syndrome. The safety of the drug will also be studied. SB1518 is designed to block JAK2 and FLT3. SB1518 may have anti-tumor activity in certain leukemias, myelofibrosis, and lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide can stop the growth of leukemia stem cells and can be used to prevent the return of leukemia cells after a transplant.
This phase II trial studies how well cyclophosphamide works in preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplant in patients with hematological malignancies. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before transplantation helps stop the growth of cancer cells and prevents the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Healthy stem cells from a donor that are infused into the patient help the patient's bone marrow make blood cells; red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes, however, the transplanted donor cells can cause an immune response against the body's normal cells, which is called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Giving cyclophosphamide after transplant may prevent this from happening or may make chronic GVHD less severe.
This study has been designed to investigate the safety and feasibility of using a chemotherapy drug, Clofarabine, to reduce the disease burden before a donor transplant, in patients with high risk Acute Myeloid Leukaemia or Myelodysplasia (MDS). In this study Clofarabine chemotherapy will be given a few days before a reduced or full intensity donor stem cell transplant and without waiting for normal blood counts to recover. It is hoped that this approach may improve the outcome for patients with high risk AML and MDS after their transplant.
Study TLK199.2107 is a multicenter, single arm, open-label Phase 2 study of oral ezatiostat (Telintra®) in patients with lenalidomide (Revlimid®) refractory or resistant, red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-dependent, Low to Intermediate-1 IPSS risk, del5q Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving decitabine with or without bortezomib works in treating older patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, 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. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether decitabine works better when given with or without bortezomib in treating acute myeloid leukemia.
