Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of polyethylene glycol (PEG; pegylated) interferon alfa-2b (PEG Intron, C98026) versus interferon alfa-2b (Intron® A) in the treatment of participants with newly diagnosed CML.
This is a single center pilot study of a non-myeloablative umbilical cord blood transplant for the treatment of a hematological malignancy with a single infusion of T regulatory (Treg) given shortly after UCB transplantation.
This phase II trial studies how well dasatinib, nilotinib, and imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated chronic myeloid leukemia in which fewer than 10% of the cells in the blood and bone marrow are blast cells (immature blood cells) (chronic phase). Dasatinib, nilotinib, and imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to determine population Pharmacokinetics and differences and variation of pharmacokinetics parameters of Imatinib as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia patients in Iranian population.
This is a treatment guideline for HLA-Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using a reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen. This regimen, consisting of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and low dose total body irradiation (TBI), is designed for the treatment of patients with advanced and/or high risk diseases.
Prospective nonrandomized phase I study The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of zileuton when added to dasatinib in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the multi-lineage hematopoietic chimerism for unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) grafts pooled from two to three cord blood units. Also to evaluate the toxicity, and antitumor responses of pooled unrelated UCB transplants.
In this research study, the investigators are looking to see whether the combination of arsenic trioxide with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor is safe, and what effects it has on chronic myelogenous leukemia.
This is a single institution study of fludarabine and busulfan versus fludarabine, busulfan and low dose total body irradiation in patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation. A study population of 80 subjects will be enrolled from The John Theurer Cancer Center at Hackensack University Medical Center. Subjects who are eligible to receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation according to the eligibility criteria will be consented and enrolled. Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive one of 2 conditioning regimen: fludarabine and busulfan, or fludarabine busulfan and low dose total body irradiation (TBI). Subjects will be followed until 1 year post transplantation to assess the relapse rate in each arm and transplant-related toxicity. The combination of fludarabine and busulfan is the current standard of care for patients with myeloid malignancies (AML, CML and other myeloproliferative disorders, or MDS) undergoing allogeneic transplantation at HUMC. In this study we will be comparing in a randomized fashion the standard regimen to a regimen of fludarabine, busulfan and TBI.
Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (or allotransplant; donor blood stem cells) have been used with varying degrees of success as an immune therapy for blood-system cancers (leukemias, myelodysplastic syndrome, lymphomas, multiple myeloma, etc.). Some people s cancer remains active (comes back or continues to spread) after an allotransplant, while other peoples cancer disappears and they are hopefully cured. National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers are studying the reasons for these different treatment outcomes, and trying to develop better cancer treatments for people with active cancer after allotransplant. Researchers are collecting data from people who have had allotransplants for a cancer of the blood, whether or not the cancer is in remission, and from their donors. Those with active cancers may be eligible to participate in one of several NIH studies testing treatments for active cancer after allotransplant. Objectives: - To develop a systematic, comprehensive evaluation of individuals with relapsed malignant blood cancers after allotransplant (and, if available, their donors) to identify potential treatment study options - To compare the immune system after allotransplant between people whose cancers are growing with people whose cancers remain in remission. - To compare the immune system after cancer relapse/progression treatment between people whose cancer responds to treatment with those whose cancers continue to grow. Eligibility: - Individuals whose blood system cancer grows or comes back after receiving allotransplant treatment. - Individuals whose blood system cancer is responding or in remission 100 days or more after receiving allotransplant treatment. - Related stem-cell donors of eligible allotransplant recipients. Design: - Participants will be evaluated with a full physical examination, detailed medical history (for recipients, including a history of allotransplant treatment process, side-effects, etc.), and blood tests. Recipients will also have imaging studies, possible tissue biopsies, quality of life questionnaires/assessments, and other tests to evaluate the current state of their cancer, whether active or in remission. In some cases, it may be possible to substitute results from recent tests and/or biopsies. - Healthy related donors will have apheresis to provide white blood cells for study and/or for use in potential treatment options. If stem cells would be medically helpful to a recipient, their donors might be asked to take injections of filgrastim before the apheresis procedure to stimulate the production of stem cells for collection. - As feasible, all recipients will be asked to return to the NIH for detailed follow-up visits in conjunction with 6, 12, and 24 months post-allotransplant evaluations, and may be monitored between visits. - Recipients whose cancers are active and who are found to be eligible for treatment protocols at the NIH will continue to be monitored on this study while participating on treatment protocols. Return visits and follow-up tests for this study will be coordinated with those required by the treatment protocol. - Participants may return in the future to be evaluated for new treatment study options (recipients) or additional cell donations for therapy (donors).
