Filter by:The study is designed as a Phase III, multicenter trial comparing outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) between patients receiving myeloablative conditioning (MAC) versus reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens.
This study is a means of providing transplantation to those patients who would be a stem cell transplant candidate who do not have an appropriate donor. The use of CD34 selected haploidentical donor with an umbilical cord unit may help provide earlier engraftment without the need for long term immunosuppression. This study tests a new method of bone marrow transplantation called combined haploidentical-cord blood transplantation. In this procedure, some of the blood forming cells (the stem cells) from a partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched (haploidentical) related donor are collected from the blood, as well as cells from an umbilical cord are transplanted into the patient (the recipient) after administration of a "conditioning regimen". A conditioning regimen consists of chemotherapy and sometimes radiation to the entire body (total body irradiation, or TBI), which is meant to destroy the cancer cells and suppress the recipient's immune system to allow the transplanted cells to take (grow).
A phase II multicentre trial of maintenance with Azacitidine in MDS patients achieving complete or partial remission (CR or PR) after intensive chemoterapy. The primary objective is response duration (MDS or AML)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of parathyroid hormone after a sequential cord blood transplant will improve engraftment, which is the ability of the transplanted stem cells to grow and to successfully begin producing new blood cells.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether voriconazole is as effective as antifungal prophylaxis in patients undergoing chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Hypothesis: Voriconazole is superior to placebo in the prophylaxis of lung infiltrates until day 21 after the start of induction chemotherapy.
Objectives: 1. Determine the toxicity of infusions of allogeneic donor lymphocytes activated by acute leukemia derived dendritic cells (DC/ADL) in relapsed patients after allo-stem cell transplants. 2. Quantitate the alloreactivity of DC/ADL and circulating immune effector cells in patients after infusion. 3. Assess efficacy of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Blastic Crisis (CML-BC) derived dendritic cells and activated lymphocytes in promoting and sustaining remission in patients with relapse after allo-BMT or stem cell transplant.
