Filter by:"This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center study of complete molecular response (CMR) in adult patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). The study is designed to evaluate early and deep molecular responses up to 4 years on nilotinib treatment. The primary end point is Rate of confirmed CMR in newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive CML-CP patients."
This study will evaluate the effects of multiple doses of nilotinib on the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of midazolam (as a sensitive CYP3A probe) in CML patients. The following extension study does evaluate the safety of nilotinib.
This study will assess the maximum tolerated dose of low dose interferon in conjunction with nilotinib in pretreated Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia patients in chronic phase (CML-CP).
Imatinib (IM) is first-line treatment for patients with newly diagnosed CML in chronic phase. The drug is associated with high rates of cytogenetic responses with minimal toxicity in approximately 80% of patients. In 20% of patients however, the disease is either initially unresponsive to IM (Imatinib), resistance develops within a few months, or blast crisis occurs early and unexpectedly following an initial response. An increasing body of clinical evidence indicates that single agent molecularly targeted therapy (as in Gleevec/Imatinib) will not cure most patients with CML, as molecular remissions are rare. There is currently no clinically useful predictive tests to identify AT DIAGNOSIS those patients who are destined to be IM failures. The authors of this study have recently demonstrated that CML stem/progenitor cells are biologically insensitive to IM and are also genetically unstable and rapidly generate IM-resistant mutants in vitro and in vivo. The team recently discovered that the CD34 stem/progenitor cells of newly diagnosed CML patients who subsequently fail to respond to IM treatment show a reduced response to IM and a higher frequency of BCR-ABL mutations by comparison of 14 IM non-responders with 11 IM-responders. If this finding can be validated in a larger prospective cohort of patients, this predictive test could be used to more rationally design treatment plans with early addition of alternative therapies ie: Dasatinib or combination therapies for patients according to their individual risk profiles. Hypothesis: The clinical response of newly diagnosed chronic phase CML patients to IM can be predicted by certain biological properties of their CD34 stem/progenitor cells which are variable among patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ponatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) or with philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who either are resistant or intolerant to either dasatinib or nilotinib, or have the (T)hreonine-315-(I)soleucine (T315I) mutation.
For patients with leukemia who have not responded to or have progressed after an initial response to standard therapy, therapeutic options are limited. Although responses to standard regimens do occur, durable remissions are achieved infrequently and current regimens are not curative in the majority of patients. Identification of active agents in patients with relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) ultimately affords the potential for use upfront as a component of induction regimens that may translate to improved outcome. Therefore, development of new agents is of critical importance. This study will look at a new, investigational agent, ON 01910.Na, to determine if it has the potential to help Patients with AML and Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) and transformed Myeloproliferative Neoplasms.
A multicenter, open label study of Nilotinib in CML patients PH + with imatininb resistant in blast crisis, accelerated phase or chronic phase. The main purpose is evaluate the safety and efficacy of Nilotinib.
Evaluate the possible deleterious effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors on sperm concentration, after 6 months of therapy, which corresponds to 2 cycles of spermatogenesis and on the sperm nuclear integrity. The main comparison criterion will be the mean difference in sperm concentration before and after the 6 month treatment.
This study will assess the pharmacokinetics of nilotinib in Ph+ CML pediatric patients that are newly diagnosed or resistant or intolerant to imatinib or dasatinib or refractory or relapsed Ph+ ALL compared to the adult populations. It will also evaluate safety and activity of nilotinib as secondary objectives.
Patients with refractory hematologic malignancies, including those who develop recurrent disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have a dismal prognosis. Historically, both regimen-related mortality and disease recurrence have been significant causes of treatment failure in this heavily pre-treated patient population. Novel therapeutic agents that target molecular signaling mechanisms and increase the sensitivity of leukemic cells to apoptosis may clearly play a role in this setting. This study hypothesizes that interrupting the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis using the selective CXCR4 antagonist plerixafor may be useful as a leukemic stem cell mobilizing agent for patients who are refractory to standard dose chemotherapy and in relapse after an allogeneic transplant. This hypothesis is based on the dependence of leukemia cells on MSCs for survival signals as described above and on the preclinical data that suggest increased efficacy by antileukemia agents when leukemia cells are separated from MSCs. In the present trial, the study proposes to add plerixafor to enhance the conditioning regimen cytotoxicity. At this time the goal is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of plerixafor through the process of dose limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluation. Pharmacokinetic studies will be conducted. Additional studies will quantify and the content of leukemia cells and key regulatory and effector T cell populations in the bone marrow and blood before and after exposure to this medication. If the observed outcomes of this trial are promising, it could serve as a platform on which to study further use of plerixafor as a complimentary agent with conditioning as well as other chemotherapeutic regimens for patients with relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies.
