Filter by:RATIONALE: A personalized Internet-based program may help improve fatigue, depression, and quality of life in long-term survivors of stem cell transplant. It is not yet known whether an Internet-based program is more effective with or without telephone-based problem-solving training. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well an Internet-based program works with or without telephone-based problem-solving training in helping long-term survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplant cope with late complications
RATIONALE: Ondansetron may help lessen or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ondansetron works in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
The study consists of two phases: The first portion of the study is a Phase 1 dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the dose limiting toxicities of SB1518 when given as a single agent orally once daily in subjects with Chronic Idiopathic Myelofibrosis (CIMF) regardless of their JAK2 mutational status. The second portion of the study is a Phase 2 study to define the efficacy and safety profile of single agent SB1518 at the recommended dose in subjects with CIMF.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term effects of orally administered SAR302503 (TG101348) in patients with myelofibrosis who have completed the MF-TG101348-001 study.
We will evaluate the records of 30 patients that have undergone allogeneic transplant, specifically looking at engraftment rate, relapse rate, disease free survival, overall survival, causes of death and other pertinent statistics. We will compare the outcomes to appropriate historical controls.
This study consists of two phases: the first portion of the study is a Phase 1 dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the dose limiting toxicities of SB1518 when given as a single agent orally once daily in subjects with advanced myeloid malignancies; the second portion of the study is a Phase 2 study to define the efficacy and safety profile of single-agent SB1518 at the recommended dose in subjects with chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis (CIMF).
The purpose of this project is to find genes whose mutations cause Polycythemia Vera, Essential Thrombocythemia and Primary Myelofibrosis.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as CC-4047, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. CC-4047 may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. PURPOSE: This trial is studying the side effects and best dose of CC-4047 and to see how well it works in treating patients with myelofibrosis.
This study that will allow for the preservation and/or storage of a small portion one or more of the following tissues: - Peripheral blood - Bone marrow - Bone marrow biopsy - A phlebotomized unit of blood - Spleen cells - Toenail clippings This material will be used for the study of Myeloproliferative Disorders (MPD) by researchers. The goals of this research study are to understand the causes of MPDs, how to diagnose them more easily and how to treat them better. MPD is a disease affecting hematopoietic stem cells. Hematopoietic stem cells are cells that make blood cells. These stem cells grow in the center portion of the bones called bone marrow. Under some conditions, these cells are also found in blood. There are several diseases, which are classified as MPD. These include polycythemia vera (too many red blood cells), essential thrombocythemia (too many platelets), and idiopathic myelofibrosis (abnormal blood cells and fibers build up in the bone marrow). These syndromes carry a high risk of developing leukemia. It is important to continue to learn more about these blood cancers and to learn more about the effectiveness and potential side effects of various treatments.
Myeloproliferative disorders occur in families, thus giving rise to the theory that it is a genetic disease that may be caused by an abnormal gene in the DNA that can be passed from one generation of family members to another. DNA can be gathered from family members through blood samples and the investigators will investigate (through DNA testing) to see if there are abnormal genes that may be responsible for causing the MPDs. Understanding which genes are responsible for causing MPDs can help develop ways to identify people who may be at risk for developing an MPD, allow for the development of better treatments, possibly a cure, or even prevent the development of MPDs.
