Filter by:This study is a multicenter, nonrandomized, open-label, dose-escalation with intra-patient dose-escalation, Phase 1 study of intravenous LY2523355 to determine the dose of LY2523355 that can be safely administered to participants with acute leukemia. Part A and Part B are dose escalation of two schedules in participants with acute leukemia. Parts A and B will enroll concurrently. Part C is a dose expansion for each schedule in participants with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML).
An experimental drug called EZN-3042 targets survivin, a protein expressed in leukemia cells at relapse that promotes the leukemia cells to grow. The main goal of this phase I study is to find out the dose of EZN-3042 that can be safely given without serious side effects both alone and in combination with standard chemotherapy drugs during re-induction.
While neurocognitive impairments in attention, memory and executive functioning are commonly reported sequelae of childhood leukemia and brain tumors, studies have only recently begun to examine the treatment of attention deficits in this population. Numerous studies have examined the effectiveness of methylphenidate in the treatment of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, the effectiveness of this medication for improving attention and behavioral functioning in children with medical illnesses or brain injury are less clear. Patients will be randomized to receive one week of Metadate CD (a controlled release form of methylphenidate, similar to Ritalin) and one week of placebo in a double-blind fashion.
The main objective of this randomized trial is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) in high risk leukemia patients who underwent haploidentical HCT followed by an add back strategy of HSV-Tk donor lymphocytes or standard haploidentical HCT
This is a Phase I study designed to determine the MTD and assess the toxicity associated with clofarabine followed by fractionated cyclophosphamide in patients > 1 year of age or < 21 years of age with relapsed or refractory acute leukemias. There will be 25 to 35 patients enrolled. Cohorts of 3 to 6 patients each will receive escalated doses of clofarabine followed by fractionated cyclophosphamide until the MTD is reached. There will be no intra-patient dose escalation. Single-agent cyclophosphamide will be administered by 2-hour IVI on Day 0 of cycle 1. On Days 1, 2, and 3 and Days 8, 9, and 10 clofarabine will be administered by IVI 2 hours before each dose of cyclophosphamide (see the treatment schema below). A cycle is defined as 28 days.
The purpose of the study is to compare alfuzosin GITS once daily versus placebo in achieving a successful TWOC after AUR due to BPH, among Chinese males in Hong Kong, and in delaying or avoiding a TURP.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the overall and disease free survival of recipients who have received G-CSF mobilized stem cells from HLA matched sibling donors.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of abciximab in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.
