Filter by:This is a unique dose-escalation trial that will titrate doses of umbilical cord blood (UCB) Treg and CD3+ Teff cells with the goal of infusing as many CD3+ Teff cells as possible without conferring grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In this study, the investigators propose to add UCB Treg and UCB CD3+ Teff cells to the two TCD UCB donor units with the goal of transplanting as many CD3+ Teff cells as possible without reintroducing risk of acute GVHD. The investigators hypothesize that Treg will permit the reintroduction of CD3+ Teff cells that will provide a bridge while awaiting HSC T cell recovery long term. The co-infusion of Treg will prevent GVHD without the need for prolonged pharmacologic immunosuppression.
The purpose of this study is to determine the MTD and/or RP2D of ABI-011 when administered by IV on Day 1, Day 8 and Day 15 with one week of rest for patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies and lymphomas.
Many patients with hematological malignancies (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma) cannot undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) because they do not have a well matched donor. HSCT from partially matched family donors (haploidentical HSCT) is an option for most patients but has been associated with poor outcomes. This study was designed to test whether using an exact amount of a donor's lymphocytes (white cells) and dividing the transplant process into 2 steps, would increase overall survival by decreasing complications. The therapy is reduced intensity so it is targeted, but not limited to, patients over the age of 65 or those who have had previous transplants.
The objective of this phase 1 study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Notch Inhibitor in participants with advanced cancer. This study includes dose escalation and dose confirmation components.
Previous studies report low levels of mood and of quality of life among cancer patients. Laugh has been proved to improve mood and immune system function. The investigators propose to assess in a prospective randomised case-control study the affects of laugh-yoga intervention on mood levels and quality of life among cancer patients in a cancer clinic. The main hypothesis is that patients in laugh-yoga group will report higher mood and quality o life levels after intervention in comparison with no-intervention group. The second hypothesis is that immune system is the mediator of the effects of laugh-yoga intervention on mood and quality of life.
Primary Objective: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SAR566658 Secondary Objectives: - To characterize the safety profile of SAR566658 - To evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of SAR566658 - To assess the potential immunogenicity of SAR566658 - To assess preliminary antitumor activity - To assess the effect of SAR566658 at recommended dose on CYP3A enzyme activity using midazolam - To assess safety in the alternative schedules of SAR566658 administration
This study will evaluate the relative bioavailability of 2 oral formulations of TKI258, and the effect of food on the bioavailability of TKI258, in adult patients with advanced solid tumor.
This is an open label, dose finding, phase Ib clinical trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and /or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and schedule for the PI3K (Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase) inhibitor BKM120 given in combination with the MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 in patients with selected, advanced solid tumors. The focus will be on tumors with RAS/RAF mutations and on triple negative breast cancer. Both study drugs will be administered once daily orally on a continuous schedule, a treatment cycle is defined as 28 days. Cohorts of at least 3 and up to a maximum of 6 patients eligible for the dose-determining set will be enrolled per dose combination below the MTD. The MTD is defined as the highest drug dosage not causing in the first cycle of treatment medically unacceptable, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in more than 33% of the treated patients.. At least 12 patients will be required at MTD and 6 patients at RP2D level to allow the evaluation of the combination's safety and pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics. Upon declaration of MTD and/or RP2D, patients will be enrolled to an expansion part of the study, to further assess safety, as well as to learn more about the efficacy of the study drug combination. - Expansion Arm 1 will consist of approximately 15 patients with RAS or BRAF mutant advanced NSCLC - Expansion Arm 2 will consist of approximately 15 patients with RAS or BRAF-mutant ovarian cancer - Expansion Arm 3 will consist of approximately 15 patients with RAS or BRAF-mutant pancreatic cancer
RATIONALE: Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine ditartrate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus together with vinorelbine ditartrate may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving temsirolimus and vinorelbine ditartrate together in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors.
This phase II trial is studying the side effects of and how well alisertib works in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Alisertib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
