Filter by:There is evidence of involvement of checkpoint pathways, including PD-1, in the pathogenesis and resistance of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). However monotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors was ineffective in a number of studies, indicating the presence of several mechanisms of resistance. This pilot study evaluates the safety and preliminary efficacy of nivolumab combination with currently existing treatments in MDS patients who failed at least one line of therapy. The study evaluates if there is a combination which induces objective responses.
It is of clinical significance to better characterize the intrinsic defects harbored by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) in Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) context, as compared to physiological conditions. Such research initiative aims to dissect the cross-talk between malignant hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) and their bone marrow (BM) partners in crime, further prospecting for innovative stromal-directed strategies for the treatment of Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
This is a multi-center Phase I/II clinical trial of GTB-3550 (CD16/IL-15/CD33) tri-specific killer cell engager (TriKE®) for the treatment of CD33-expressing high risk myelodysplastic syndromes, refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or advanced systemic mastocytosis. The hypothesis is that GTB-3550 TriKE® will induce natural killer cell function by targeting malignant cells as well as CD33+ myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) which contribute to tumor induced immunosuppression. Because CD16 is the most potent activating receptor on natural killer (NK) cells, this single agent may induce a targeted anti-CD33+ tumor response.
This pilot clinical trial compares the safety of two different platelet transfusion "thresholds" among patients with blood cancer or treatment-induced thrombocytopenia whose condition requires anticoagulant medication (blood thinners) for blood clots. Giving relatively fewer platelet transfusions may reduce the side effects of frequent platelet transfusions without leading to undue bleeding.
[Updated]: To assess the safety and tolerability of ONO-7475 monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndromes and to assess: i) safety and tolerability and ii) preliminary efficacy of the combination of ONO-7475 and venetoclax in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of utilizing the insulin-like growth factor-1-methotrexate conjugate, 765IGF-MTX for the treatment of advanced, previously treated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) and oligoblastic acute myelogenous leukemia (oligoblastic AML or O-AML), including determining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).
This is a Phase 2, two-stage study of the safety and efficacy of pracinostat in combination with azacitidine in patients with IPSS-R high and very high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who are previously untreated with hypomethylating agents (HMAs). Enrollment in this study will be limited to high/very high risk MDS because this group represents the highest unmet need, with median survival of less than 18 months. Stage 1a will be conducted as an open-label single arm in up to 40 subjects to assess if this regimen with a lower pracinostat dose results in a discontinuation rate that meets a predefined threshold and in efficacy that justifies expansion of enrollment into Stage 1b. A discontinuation rate of approximately ≤10% in Stage 1a, a rate comparable to that observed with azacitidine alone in study MEI-003 (NCT01873703), supports expansion into Stage 1b. Stage 1b will be conducted as expansion of stage 1a. Approximately 20 additional subjects will be enrolled. Study drugs should be continued until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. It is important to note that the median time to achieving a response with azacitidine alone is 4 to 5 months. Furthermore, the median time to achieving a Complete Response (CR) in study MEI-003 (NCT01873703) was 4 cycles. Therefore, early (<6 months) discontinuation of trial therapy for 'no response' should be avoided. The Medical Monitor should be contacted prior to discontinuing a subject from the study to discuss the rationale for discontinuation.
This trial studies the side effects of recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein when given together with azacitidine or decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or has not responded to previous treatment with a hypomethylating agent. Recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hypomethylating agents, such as azacitidine and decitabine, slow down genes that promote cell growth and can kill cells that are dividing rapidly. Giving recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein together with azacitidine or decitabine may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia.
The primary hypothesis is that digoxin can be safely added to decitabine and will increase the response rates in medically unfit patients with newly diagnosed AML/MDS or those with relapsed/refractory AML/MDS. Furthermore, it is hypothesized that the addition of digoxin to decitabine will result in distinct epigenetic alterations in AML/MDS patients.
This phase II trial studies how well daratumumab works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
