Filter by:This study evaluates the risks and experience of blood clots and bleeding in patients with blood cancers. While it is standard of care to use medications to reduce the risk of blood clots in hospitalized individuals, some patients with blood cancers have low platelet counts that can increase the concern for bleeding complications associated with these medications. At this time, the optimal management strategies for blood clots are not well known for patients with blood cancers. This pilot study evaluates additional information that could help doctors know which patients are at highest risk for blood clots.
This phase II clinical trial evaluates whether a modified modality of conditioning reduces treatment-related mortality (TRM) in patients who undergo a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for a hematological malignancy. HSCT is a curative therapy for many hematopoietic malignancies, however this regimen results in higher rates of TRM than other forms of treatment. In recent years, less intense conditioning regimens with radiation and chemotherapy prior to HSCT have been developed. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors while chemotherapy drugs like fludarabine and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This study evaluates whether a two-step approach with lower-intensity regimens of these treatments prior to HSCT reduces the rate of TRM.
This study assesses neurocognitive outcomes after receiving radiation therapy to the brain (whole brain radiation therapy) in patients with blood cancers (hematologic malignancies). This may help researchers learn more about the effects of whole brain radiation therapy on memory and thinking in patients with blood cancer.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, single center study of short-course oral venetoclax therapy prior to non-myeloablative conditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide in subjects with haematological malignancies who are planned for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). The primary study objective is to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of venetoclax when used in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide conditioning. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the transplant outcomes and donor/recipient engraftment of this regimen.
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.
This phase II trial investigates the effect of belantamab mafodotin and lenalidomide on minimal residual disease negative rates in patients with multiple myeloma with minimal residual disease positive after stem cell transplant. Belantamab mafodotin is a monoclonal antibody, called belantamab, linked to a chemotherapy drug, called mafodotin. Belantamab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) receptors, and delivers mafodotin to kill them. Lenalidomide may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer, and is used as a standard of care treatment for multiple myeloma. Giving belantamab mafodotin and lenalidomide may help to maintain minimal residual disease negativity in patients with multiple myeloma.
This is a single-arm, phase II, open-label trial to investigate the effects of selinexor (S) in combination with daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (DRd) for first-line treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). FDA has approved selinexor plus dexamethasone in multiple myeloma after four prior therapies, and DRd is also already approved by the FDA for multiple myeloma. This study will use all four (S-DRd) together to treat MM as an initial treatment.
This phase III trial compares the combination of four drugs (daratumumab, bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone) to the use of a three drug combination (daratumumab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone). Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as lenalidomide, 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. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Adding bortezomib to daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone may be more effective in shrinking the cancer or preventing it from returning, compared to continuing on daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone.
This study evaluates how well the heart, lungs, and muscles are working individually, and how these systems are working together in transplant survivors. Information collected in this study may help doctors to understand why hematopoietic stem cell transplant survivors are at higher risk for developing cardiovascular disease.
Primary Objective: To assess the effectiveness, in terms of overall response rate (ORR) of isatuximab patients with RRMM in routine clinical practice, within 12 months To assess other effectiveness parameters such as progression free survival (PFS), PFS rate (PFSR), duration of response (DoR), time to response, time and intent to first subsequent therapy, rate of very good partial response or better, rate of complete response (CR) or better of isatuximab patients with RRMM in routine clinical practice To assess the profile of patients (demographic, disease characteristics, comorbidities and prior MM treatment history) who are treated with isatuximab in routine clinical practice To describe safety of isatuximab in routine clinical practice (based on adverse event [AE] reporting) To assess quality of life (QoL) using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 30 item core questionnaire (QLQ C30) and the accompanying 20 item myeloma questionnaire module (QLQ MY20) Secondary Objective: Not applicable
