Filter by:ENESTKorea is a phase 4, multi-institutional, single-arm, open-label study investigating the efficacy and safety of nilotinib at the currently approved dose (300 mg twice daily) and its exposure-outcome relationship, in adult patients diagnosed as Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CD4+ and CD8+ HA-1 T cell receptor (TCR) (HA-1 T TCR) T cells in treating patients with acute leukemia that persists, has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) following donor stem cell transplant. T cell receptor is a special protein on T cells that helps them recognize proteins on other cells including leukemia. HA-1 is a protein that is present on the surface of some peoples' blood cells, including leukemia. HA-1 T cell immunotherapy enables genes to be added to the donor cells to make them recognize HA-1 markers on leukemia cells.
This is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation study to determine the MTD of selumetinib when combined with the standard dose of azacitidine. Treatment will begin within 28 days of screening procedures. Treatment will continue indefinitely, provided that the patient continues to derive benefit. A patient will be taken off study for reasons described in detail in section 3.12 including disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, inter-current illness, withdrawal of consent, or at the discretion of the investigator. Patients will be followed for 12 weeks after the last dose of study drug, until any study treatment related toxicities have stabilized, or until death. The total duration of the study is expected to be approximately 24 months.
This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib works in preventing acute leukemia in patients after reduced-intensity conditioning and stem cell transplant. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Imatinib, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is used for treatment of Philadelphia positive chronic myeloid leukemia. Despite its efficacy and favorable pharmacokinetic profile, there is a large inter-individual variability in imatinib plasma concentrations, which may lead to treatment failure and disease progression. Polymorphisms in genes related to absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of imatinib may affect the bioavailability and consequently the response to the drug. The study aims to investigate the possible effect of genetic polymorphisms in certain metabolizing enzymes [CYP3A5*3 (rs776746), CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080 and rs10509681)] and membrane transporters [ABCB1 2677G>T/A (rs2032582) and SLC22A1 1222A > G (rs628031)] by PCR on the plasma level (by HPLC-UV) and molecular response (MMR) of imatinib in patients with CML. The study also aims to provide CML patients with a personalized treatment option, thereby probably improving the response and reducing the side effects.
The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate whether some patients who were started on a 2G-TKI as first-line treatment can be safely switched to imatinib, a first-generation TKI, while maintaining or even deepening the molecular response as a cost-effective treatment. Eligible patients will be switched to imatinib 400mg daily, with regular molecular monitoring.
Nilotinib vs imatinib in patients with newly diagnosed CML-CP
The suppression of the immune system creates a permissive environment for development and progression of cancer. One population of immunosuppressive cells that have become the focus of intense study is myeloid derived suppressor cells , immature myeloid cells able to induce immune-escape, angiogenesis, and tumor progression. Two different subpopulations have been identified and studied: granulocytic and monocytic myeloid derived suppressor cells with a different immunophenotype and immunosuppressive properties
This pilot clinical trial compares the safety of two different platelet transfusion "thresholds" among patients with blood cancer or treatment-induced thrombocytopenia whose condition requires anticoagulant medication (blood thinners) for blood clots. Giving relatively fewer platelet transfusions may reduce the side effects of frequent platelet transfusions without leading to undue bleeding.
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is due to a chromosomal abnormality in white blood cells which results in abnormal multiplication. CML in its earlier, slower growing chronic phase (CP) is well controlled by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) drug imatinib, which targets the consequences of the chromosomal abnormality, inducing a response and subsequent remission (as measured using molecular techniques on patient blood or bone marrow samples in the lab). Dasatinib, a newer TKI drug, similar in design to imatinib, gives a more rapid molecular response, however the long term side-effects are less known than imatinib. This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of a treatment plan for patients with newly diagnosed CML-CP, where dasatinib will be used to more rapidly induce a molecular response (MR3.0) within 12 months, after which imatinib will be used to maintain the CML in that remission. It is hypothesised that imatinib is safe and effective in maintaining MR3.0 in patients with CML who achieve MR3.0 at 12 months following initial induction therapy with dasatinib.
