Filter by:This research study is evaluating a combination of drugs considered standard treatment for children and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), in combination with a new drug called MLN 9708. Additionally, the study is also evaluating if bone marrow or stem cell transplantation, which will be given to some participants, helps to prevent ALL from returning.
This was a single arm, open-label, multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of an experimental therapy called CTL019 T-cells in pediatric patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, who were refractory to standard chemotherapy regimen or relapsed after allogeneic stem cell transplant.
Background: - Stem cell transplantation from a partially matched donor can lead to graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Researchers want to learn how to improve these transplantations. Objective: - To see if very low doses of Interleukin-2 after a partially matched transplantation prevent GVHD. Eligibility: - Recipients: age 18 65, with certain bone marrow or lymphatic system diseases and an available family member with partial tissue match. - Donors: age 18 80. Design: - Recipients will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and many tests including blood and tissue tying. - Donors will be screened with medical history, physical exam, blood tests and tissue typing. - Recipients will stay in the hospital 3 6 weeks. - All participants will have apheresis. Blood is drawn from one arm, run through a machine that collects white blood cells, then returned into the other arm. - Recipients will have: - Intravenous (IV) line placed under the skin and into a neck vein, to stay throughout transplant and recovery. They may also have a catheter inserted for collecting immune cells. - Bone marrow sample taken by needle. They will have 3 more after transplant. - Donors will have: - Filgrastim injected once daily for 5 6 days. - Stem and immune cells collected by another apheresis. - Recipients will get: - Eight 30-minute doses of radiation, sitting at a machine. - Donor immune cells by IV, 6 days before the transplant day. - Chemotherapy drugs by IV. <TAB><TAB>- Donor stem cells by IV on transplant day. - After transplant, recipients will give self-injections of very low doses of Interleukin-2 once daily for about 12 weeks. - Before and after transplant, recipients will get medicine to suppress the immune system and antibiotics to prevent infections - Recipients must stay near NIH for 3 6 months after transplant. - All recipients and donors will have 3 years of follow-up.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety of the investigational agent, cirmtuzumab. Cirmtuzumab is a monoclonal antibody drug designed to attach to a protein, called ROR1, on the surface of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells to block cell growth and survival. ROR1 is rarely expressed on healthy cells so the idea is to preferentially get rid of the cancer cells. Although there is evidence in laboratory animals that cirmtuzumab can decrease the number of CLL cells, the investigators do not know if this will work in humans. This drug will be given to humans for the first time in this study. Therefore, the goal of this study is to see if cirmtuzumab is safe and tolerated in study participants.
Acute Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This study aims to determine if any of three new GVHD prophylaxis approaches improves the rate of GVHD and relapse free survival at one year after transplant compared to the current standard prophylaxis regimen.
This phase II trial studies how well a dose adjusted regimen consisting of etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride (EPOCH) works in combination with ofatumumab or rituximab in treating patients with Burkitt lymphoma that is newly diagnosed, or has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed), or has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) or relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride, 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. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ofatumumab and rituximab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more cancer cells.
Study CR-AIR-006 is a part of the ATIR clinical development plan and will provide control data for patients treated with ATIR in clinical studies (e.g. study CR-AIR-007).
The present study aims at studying how safe and tolerable a new therapy for patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is. This new therapy consists of an immunotherapy, that is an approach focusing on the immune system, and it targets ALL patients in complete remission but who may still have the disease at a cellular level (this is called 'minimal residual disease'). For any further information, please, discuss with your treating physician.
This clinical trial studies intra-osseous donor umbilical cord blood and mesenchymal stromal cell co-transplant in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a co-transplant of donor umbilical cord blood and mesenchymal stromal cells into the bone (intra-osseous) helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune 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 at the time of transplant may stop this from happening.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CPI-613 when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride in treating patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma. CPI-613 may kill cancer cells by turning off their mitochondria, which are used by cancer cells to produce energy and are the building blocks needed to make more cancer cells. By shutting off mitochondria, CPI-613 may deprive the cancer cells of energy and other supplies needed to survive and grow. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, 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 CPI-613 with bendamustine hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.
