Filter by:Up Until now, there is not well acepted treatment for relapsed/refractory (rr) acute myeloid luekemia (AML), which has low complete response and poor survival. According to different guildlines, clinical trial is the first choice for the treatment of rrAML. High expression of BCL-2 and hypermethylation are very important factors for drug resistance in AML. Lots of studies have reported combination of BCL-2 inhibitor with hypomethylating agents (HMA) showed a promising efficacy in elder or unfit patients with newly diagnosed AML, however, presented not that exciting curing effect in rrAML. It is known that overexpression of MCL-1 and BCL-XL is the main reason for leukemia cells being resistant to BCL2 inhibitors. Since Homoharringtonine (HHT) could downregulate MCL-1 and BCL-XL in leukemia cells, there might be a synergic effect for combination of BCL-2 inhibitors with HHT, which has been proven in the treatment of lymphoma. Yet, there is not a report for the use of this combination in AML. In this single arm multi-centers prospective study, adult patients with rrAML are included and treated with BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax at a dose of 400mg per day for 14 days, combined with azacitidine (AZA) at a dose of 75mg/m2 per day for 7 days, and HHT 1mg/m2 per day for 7 days, and then the eficacy and safety of HVA regimens as salvage treatment in rrAML are assessed.
This phase II trial studies the side effects of a cord blood transplant using dilanubicel and to see how well it works in treating patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive hematologic (blood) cancers. After a cord blood transplant, the immune cells, including white blood cells, can take a while to recover, putting the patient at increased risk of infection. Dilanubicel consists of blood stem cells that help to produce mature blood cells, including immune cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and thiotepa, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Total body irradiation is a type of whole-body radiation. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a cord blood transplant with dilanubicel may help to kill any cancer cells that are in the body and make room in the patient's bone marrow for new stem cells to grow and reduce the risk of infection.
This is a Phase I clinical trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the polo-like kinase-1 inhibitor volasertib which can be safely combined with idarubicin plus cytarabine induction chemotherapy for previously untreated patients with acute myeloid leukemia. (AML).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether 5-Azacytidine priming before the conditioning regimen for subjects receiving a hematopoietic stem cell transplant is an effective treatment for high risk myeloid malignancies in complete remission (CR).
This randomized phase II trial studies how well choline magnesium trisalicylate with idarubicin and cytarabine works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as choline magnesium trisalicylate, idarubicin, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet know whether choline magnesium trisalicylate and combination chemotherapy is more effective than combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
This pilot clinical trial studies if cells donated by a close genetic relative can help maintain acute myeloid leukemia (AML) complete remission (CR). Eligible patients will receive a standard induction chemotherapy. If a complete remission results they will receive irradiated allogeneic cells from a HLA haploidentical relative. Only patients who obtain a CR after the standard induction chemotherapy are eligible for the experimental therapy (irradiated haploidentical cells).
This randomized phase III trial studies clofarabine to see how well it works compared with daunorubicin hydrochloride and cytarabine when followed by decitabine or observation in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, daunorubicin hydrochloride, cytarabine, and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating acute myeloid leukemia.
This phase II trial studies how well eltrombopag olamine works in improving the recovery of platelet counts in older patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) undergoing induction (the first treatment given for a disease) chemotherapy. Platelet counts recover more slowly in older patients, leading to risk of complications and the delay of post-remission therapy. Eltrombopag olamine may cause the body to make platelets after chemotherapy.
This phase I trial studies the MEK inhibitor MEK162 to see if it is safe in patients when combined with idarubicin and cytarabine. MEK inhibitor MEK162 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as idarubicin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving MEK inhibitor MEK162, cytarabine, and idarubicin may be an effective treatment for acute myeloid leukemia.
This phase 2 trial studies how well ixazomib(MLN9708) works in treating study participants with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Ixazomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
