Filter by:This is an open-label, multicenter study exploring the efficacy of ivosidenib in patients with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS) with mutations in IDH1. The purpose is to establish proof of principle that ivosidenib is well-tolerated and potentially efficacious in improving blood count abnormalities in these patients. The study will also be offered in a decentralized, remote structure to patients.
This cross-sectional prevalence assessment study involves a single blood draw in specific patient populations to assess for enzymatic and genomic evidence for acquired pyruvate kinase deficiency.
This is a phase II pilot study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of danazol for treatment of cytopenias in patients with CPC A/B cirrhosis. Subjects with or without telomere mutations and/or shortened telomeres will be treated with danazol 600 mg per day by mouth for a duration of 24 months. The goal will be to treat a total of 10 patients.
This is a single-arm pilot study of the feasibility and safety of metformin in patients with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS) or lower-risk myelodysplastic neoplasms (LR-MDS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of KER-050 on anemia in patients with very low, low or intermediate risk MDS.
Background: Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential (CHIP) is a change in a person s DNA that can increase a person s risk of developing blood cancers or cardiovascular disease. CHIP occurs mostly occurs in older people. Clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS) occurs when one or more blood cell types is lower than it should be and is associated with a change in their DNA. Researchers want to learn more about how CHIP and CCUS progress. Objective: To examine the natural history of people in a study of CHIP and CCUS to (1) verify the association of myeloid somatic mutations with atherosclerosis and blood cancers, and (2) find new potential clinical associations. Eligibility: Adults 18 and older with CHIP with a somatic pathogenic variant associated with blood cancers. Adults with CCUS are also needed. Design: Potential participants will be screened with gene testing. For this, they will give a blood sample. They will also be enrolled in NHLBI screening protocol #97-H-0041. Those who pass this screening will visit the NIH Clinical Center for more screening tests. For this, they will give a blood sample. They will have a physical exam. They will give their medical history. They may give a urine sample. Those with CCUS will have bone marrow taken. Eligible participants will give blood and urine samples. Their heart activity will be monitored and tested. The arteries in their neck will be assessed using ultrasound. They will have liver and heart scans. They will have a bone mineral density scan. They will have lung function tests. They will have the inside of their cheek swabbed or have a skin punch biopsy. They will have the option to have advanced scans done of their heart and full body but this is not required. Participants will have yearly follow-up visits for 10 years. They will repeat the above procedures every 1-3 years depending on the procedure.
This phase II trial studies the effect of ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy in treating patients with lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to therapy (refractory), clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Ascorbic acid may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
10% of the cases referred to the specialist diagnostic haemato-pathology service at RMH are for cytopenias. The hypothesis to be tested is that a proportion of patients with idiopathic cytopenias have mutations in myelodysplasic syndrome (MDS)-associated genes. The investigators will sequence a panel of known MDS-associated genes in patient material (bone marrow and blood) that is sent routinely to the diagnostic service where conventional techniques have failed to establish a clear diagnosis. 200 patients with idiopathic cytopenia will be followed up to determine their survival, blood counts and development of acute leukaemia and other haematological malignancies. The clinical outcomes will be correlated with any mutations detected.
This clinical trial tests next generation sequencing (NGS) for the detection of precursor features of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes. NGS is a procedure that looks at relevant cancer associated genes and what they do. Finding genetic markers for pre-malignant conditions may help identify patients who are at risk of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes and lead to earlier intervention.
