Filter by:The proposed study, may significantly contribute to improve healthcare delivery in patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) treated with modern tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in two ways. First, it may provide novel empirical data on the positive effects of systematically monitoring of patient-reported adverse events (AEs) in routine practice for improving symptom management and adherence to therapy. Second, it will inform the development of a large international randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test whether systematic collection of patient-reported AEs, could improve clinical response to TKI therapy.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) aimed to avoid CML conversion (AP, BC). Hydroxyurea pulse therapy for chronic-phase CML patients is effective based on the investigator's previous studies, and the scheme cost lower than imatinib. It is not yet known the efficacy compared Hydroxyurea pulse therapy with imatinib for chronic-phase CML, especially to achieve hematological remission in short time. PURPOSE: Non-randomized trial to compare the effectiveness of hydroxyurea pulse therapy with that of imatinib in treating chronic-phase CML patients.
This study combines two drugs (ruxolitinib and the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, nilotinib) in an attempt to eliminate the CML (Chronic Myeloid Leukemia) stem cell population and thus allow for the deepest and most durable response possible in patients with CML in chronic phase who have achieved a complete hematologic remission (CHR), complete cytogenetic remission (CCyR), and major molecular remission (MMR), but not a complete molecular remission (CMR). The study will look at safety and tolerability of ruxolitinib when combined with nilotinib in a phase I study and will help establish the MTD (Maximum Tolerated Dose) of ruxolitinib when combined with nilotinib. Once the optimal dose of ruxolitinib is established in the phase I setting, a phase II evaluation will seek to establish the efficacy of this combination.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate treatment-free remission after imatinib discontinuation in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia with deep molecular response. Before discontinuation, patients will receive pioglitazone associated with imatinib during 3 months.
Purpose There is a growing evidence of high efficacy of post-transplantation cyclophocphomide (PTCy)-based GVHD prophylaxis in haploidentical and matched related and unrelated bone marrow transplantation. There is limitted, but growing data on safety and efficacy of this prophylaxis in unrelated and peripheral blood stem cell transplantations. Use of PTCy in chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms and myelodisplatic syndrome is of particular interest. On the one hand, PTCy could reduce the incidence of chronic GVHD and long-term bormidity. On the other hand, there is a concern, that PTCy can increase the incidence of graft failures in this group of patients. Currently published data indicate that low-dose Thymoglobulin-based prophylaxis is the most promissing compatitor in terms of acute and chronic GVHD control. So there is a rationale to randomize Thymoglobulin and PTCy as GVHD prophilaxis. Pre-transplant assesment of moratlity (PAM)-index will be used as the strata for randomization, as it is the paramter that takes into account the most important factors effecting survival. The conditioning regimen and the other two components of GVHD prophylaxis (mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus) will be identical in the two arms of the study.
Describe the purpose of the study: This study aims to evaluate the improvement of Dasatinib-related adverse events and to evaluate the treatment effect and safety by measuring the genetic response of nilotinib with nilotinib 400mg BID for 12 months in Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia patients intolerant to Dasatinib.
To compare administration of peginterferon-α-2a for 1 year versus observation after stopping tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with deep MR ≥ 2 years.
In this phase III clinical randomized study, "fixed" intermittent administration (one month ON/one month OFF) of TKIs (control arm), will be compared with "progressive" intermittent administration (one month ON/one month OFF for the 1st year; one month ON/two months OFF for the 2nd year; one month ON/three months OFF for the 3rd year) (experimental arm). Imatinib (Glivec), or Nilotinib (Tasigna), or Dasatinib (Sprycel) will be given intermittently at the same daily dose that was given daily at the time of the enrollment . Chronic phase Ph+ CML patients in stable major molecular response (MR3.0 or MR4.0) after ≥2 years of standard treatment with IM, NIL, or DAS will be randomized 1:1 to receive "fixed" INTERIM or "progressive" INTERIM. Randomization will be stratified by type of TKI (IM, NIL, or DAS,) and by depth of molecular response (MR3.0or MR4.0). The study is aimed to evaluate if a progressive increase of intermittent treatment discontinuation until 3 months is able to improve QoL outcomes with respect to "fixed" intermittent administration of TKIs (control arm) and to maintain MR3.0 / MR4.0 molecular response. Patients' self reported EORTC QLQ-C30 outcome measure will be assessed throughout the three years follow up period. The QoL results in this trial will be presented in accordance with high methodological quality criteria for documenting patient-reported outcomes (PRO) data in RCTs, including the CONSORT PRO recommendations. Furthermore, the study could give additional clinical and biological information to optimize TKIs therapy in elderly.
The investigators would like to propose a prospective longitudinal observational cohort study for patients who will be diagnosed and/or treated for chronic myeloid leukemia at Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Korea, to use the acquired data for fundamentals of other retrospective analysis.
