Filter by:Myeloma patients who relapse after prior treatment with bortezomib and lenalidomide have survival of less than 1 year. Recently, a randomized study of Pomalidomide and dexamethasone conducted in compared with placebo and dexamethasone showed that pomalidomide can improve survival of this group of patients. As a result, pomalidomide is now approved by the FDA and EMA for use in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma previously treated with bortezomib and lenalidomide. We have conducted a study using Pomalidomide plus Dexamethasone (PD) in Asian patients, which showed good efficacy and safety profile. More important for patients with suboptimal response to PD will achieve a clinically meaningful response with the addition of oral cyclophosphamide (PCD). In the United States, a small randomised phase 2 study of PCD versus PD showed that PCD have a higher response rates, produce deeper response and correspondingly longer progression free survival. There is till date no randomised phase 3 study between these regimens. This will be important to determine what is the best combination including pomalidomide for use in relapse myeloma.
Myeloma patients who relapse after prior treatment with bortezomib and lenalidomide have survival of less than 1 year. A number of new drugs have been approved for the treatment of relapse myeloma in the last couple of years, including, Elotuzumab, Panobinostat, Ixazomib, carfilzomib and Pomalidomide. However, most of these drugs either do not have good single agent activity or still belongs to the category of immunomodulatory drugs or proteasome inhibitors. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody against CD38 that is highly expressed on myeloma plasma cells. In phase ½ studies, it has impressive single agent activity in relapse and refractory myeloma with a very acceptable toxicity profile. This set the stage for combinations with daratumumab to increase efficacy and improve outcome of patients with myeloma. The use of immunomodulatory drugs, such as thalidomide and lenalidomide, has been shown to augment NK cell activity. NK cells are important mediator of antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. We therefore hypothesize that the combination of Daratumumab with thalidomide may therefore improve the efficacy of the treatment. In this study, we will plan to perform a phase II trial using the Daratumumab, Thalidomide, Dexamethasone combination in 100 myeloma patients with relapse myeloma in Asia.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, or double-hit lymphoma/leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate liposome, dexamethasone and bortezomib, 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 phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of palbociclib when given alone and in combination with sorafenib, decitabine, or dexamethasone in treating patients with leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or that does not respond to previous treatment (refractory). Palbociclib, sorafenib, and decitabine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, 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. Giving palbociclib alone and in combination with sorafenib, decitabine, or dexamethasone may work better in treating patients with recurrent or refractory leukemia.
This is a single-arm, non-randomized study of re-irradiation of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG)
A prospective observational study to re-establish a new prognostic model for predicting the outcome in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) using the current recommendation regimen for intermediate and high risk groups and including all potential and highly prognostic factors.
This phase II trial studies how well dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DSC-MRI) works in measuring relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) for early response to bevacizumab in patients with glioblastoma that has come back. DSC-MRI may help evaluate changes in the blood vessels within the cancer to determine a patient?s response to treatment.
The investigators conduct this study to evaluate the efficacy and adverse effect of salvage concurrent chemo-proton therapy (CCPT) with or without surgical resection in previously irradiated recurrent rectal cancer.
This study will evaluate the safety of infusing an anti-MiHA T cell line in patients suffering from an hematologic malignancy that has relapsed following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a matched donor.
