Filter by:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a common malignant hematology disease. The development of proteasome inhibitors (PIs) and immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) significantly improved the survival of MM patients. IMiDs have multiple effects in MM therapy. Except for direct cytotoxicity, IMiDs also play a variety of immune regulatory roles. Lenalidomide, a kind of IMiDs, was usually used in the therapy of relapsed/refractory MM. The efficacy and safety of RDD (lenalidomide, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, dexamethasone) in newly diagnosed patients with MM still needs to be further validated.
This is a prospective, controlled, open-label, pharmacokinetic study. This study aims at studying the PK of ledipasvir, sofosbuvir, and GS-331007 metabolite in HCV infected children with hematological malignancy. In this study, patients in both treatment groups will receive 12 weeks of treatment with a fixed-dose combination tablet containing 45 mg of ledipasvir and 200 mg of sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) orally, once daily with food.
- To identify the common bacterial and fungal species causing fungemia and bacteremia in hematological malignancies. - To identify sensitivity pattern for causative microbes. - Compare culture on ordinary media with Vitek2 (automated microbial identification system) and multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR )
This is a Phase I dose escalation study designed to define the maximum tolerable dose(MDT), the safety profile, pharmacokinetic parameters, immunogenicity and anti-tumor activity of F0002-ADC in Chinese patients with relapsed/refractory CD30-positive hematologic malignancies.
The objective of this project is to compare chemosensitivity between chemotherapy combinations in bone marrow aspirates using 3D organoid models. The investigators overarching hypothesis is that 3D organoids are ideal to test chemosensitivity in real time, to provide personalized medicine and guidance in the setting of relapsed hematologic malignancy and potentially other cancers.
This is a Phase 1 cohort, dose-escalation, dose-expansion study of PRT543 in patients with advanced cancers who have exhausted available treatment options. The purpose of this study is to define a safe dose and schedule to be used in subsequent development of PRT543.
In this Phase I study, the study team will evaluate the safety of Valproic Acid (VPA) expanded cord blood stem cells defined by the lack of serious infusion reactions or graft failure in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing umbilical cord blood transplantation. Moreover, the study team will also evaluate time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment as well as transplant related outcomes such as graft versus host disease (GVHD), treatment related mortality (TRM), and overall survival (OS).
For patients with refractory acute leukemia, allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only curative therapy. Only 20% of patients may achieve long-term survival mostly due to relapse or nor-relapse mortality (NRM). In previous study, we demonstrated that intensive leukemia debulking chemotherapy FLAG-IDA sequential with Flu-BU conditioning is feasible with ~40% long-term survival. In the study, we further modified the chemotherapy with cladribine replacing fludarabine aiming a more potent anti-leukemia effect. Meanwhile, we reduce the dose of busulfan for patients with poor performance status and age over 45 aim to reduce the NRM. All patients will also receive post-transplantation maintenance therapy with low-dose decitabine to prevent relapse.
This phase Ib trial determines if samples from a patient's cancer can be tested to find combinations of drugs that provide clinical benefit for the kind of cancer the patient has. This study is also being done to understand why cancer drugs can stop working and how different cancers in different people respond to different types of therapy.
Background: Central venous catheters are frequently used during cancer treatment with the aim of venepreservation. It can facilitate venous access for the safe administration of irritating or vesicant intravenous cancer medications and / or other fluids, to collect blood samples or to ensure accurate venous access for contrast during medical imaging. In addition, this means more comfort for the patient who needs to be punctured less peripherally. However, central venous catheters can also be a source of bloodstream infections and other complications, leading to increased morbidity and hospital costs (1). In our hospital, there is a general practice that if an infection of the device is suspected, the central venous catheter should be removed if antibiotics do not seem or prove to be effective. The objective of this trial is to assess the frequency of implanted port catheter-removal in cancer patients due to suspected infection of the device in a particular oncology center over a time period of seven years. Furthermore, evidence for real device infections (per/post-surgery) and the potential contribution of different (institution-specific) risk factors on device infection will be explored. There will be focused on implanted port catheters only, as this is the main used central venous access device within the oncological population. Trial objectives: The primary aim of this retrospective descriptive trial is to evaluate the frequency of implanted port catheter-removal in cancer patients due to suspected infection of the device, over a time period of seven years. The secondary aim is to examine whether the device infection could be confirmed during or after removal of the device. At last, the tertiary aim is to verify whether certain variables can be denoted as potential risk factors for central venous access infection. Selection of those variables of interest will be based on a thorough review of the literature and discussion with the responsible healthcare professionals.
