Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to measure the response rate in participants with the myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), or myelofibrosis (MF) when treated with LY2784544, including those who have demonstrated an intolerance to, failure of primary response to, or have demonstrated disease progression while on ruxolitinib.
The present project is a multicenter phase II trail aiming at comparing which of the two postgrafting immunosuppressive regimens proposed in this study will be best suited to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVDH). The immunosuppressive regimens will consist of: Tacrolimus plus Mycophenolate Mofetil or Tacrolimus plus Sirolimus. Before grafting patients will undergo a reduced-intensity conditioning with Fludarabine/total body irradiation (TBI) or Fludarabine/Busulfan/anti-thymoglobuline. Following the interim analysis of October 2014, the protocol has been amended to allow inclusion only after Flu-TBI conditioning. The hypothesis is that the Tacrolimus plus Sirolimus regimen will be associated with better progression-free survival due to a lower incidence of relapse/progression.
This is a Phase 1 study evaluating the safety of ABT-263 administered in combination with rituximab in participants with CD20-positive lymphoproliferative disorders. The extension portion of the study will allow active participants to continue to receive ABT-263 for up to 14 years after the last participant transitions with quarterly study evaluations.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate and melphalan, and HT before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving HT together with fludarabine phosphate and melphalan before a transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies helical tomotherapy (HT), fludarabine phosphate, and melphalan followed by donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies.
This randomized phase III trial is studying total-body irradiation (TBI) and fludarabine phosphate to see how it works compared with TBI alone followed by donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic cancer. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, and radiation therapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune system cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening. It is not yet known whether TBI followed by donor stem cell transplant is more effective with or without fludarabine phosphate in treating hematologic cancer.
