One cycle will comprise daily IV infusion of the combination treatment course for 4 or 5 consecutive days and rest period to between Day 30 and Day 42, based on patient performance and disease status.
A Phase 1/2 dose escalation / dose expansion study of DSP 5336 in patients with relapsed or refractory AML.
This is a pilot study designed to identify the effect of daunorubicin-cytarabine liposome (CPX-351) in combination with a FLT3-inhibitor (midostaurin) as induction and consolidation therapy for patients with high-risk FLT3 mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and subsequent CD34+-selected allogeneic stem cell transplant from HLA compatible related or unrelated donors.
This is a open label, phase Ib/II study. All patients are diagnosed with AML, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-3. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AK117 + azacitidine in subjects with AML.
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often receive a drug called daunorubicin. Daunorubicin is a type of drug called an anthracycline, which increases the risk of some damage to the heart. Beta blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) are two types of drugs that are often used (and are FDA approved) to treat the type of damage to the heart caused by anthracyclines. They have also been used in some populations to prevent this type of heart damage. In this study, participants will be randomly assigned to either preventively take a beta blocker and ACEi or not to receive these. The primary purpose of the study is to look at how often people in each group develop this type of heart damage. The study investigators will also collect data about your quality of life and other changes in your heart function. Frequency and severity of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity among patients receiving acute myeloid leukemia (AML) chemotherapy is unknown. We hypothesize that up-titrating study agents to maximum tolerated dosage at the time of induction (starting treatment for AML) will prevent the development of systolic dysfunction as determined on serial echocardiography.
This phase II trial studies the effects of venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax and decitabine, 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. Cedazuridine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving venetoxlax in combination with decitabine and cedazuridine may help to control acute myeloid leukemia.
Among the different types of cancer that most affect children, leukemia is the principal. One of the main treatments for leukemia is chemotherapy. Among the most common side effects of chemotherapy are nausea and/or vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, alopecia, neuropathy, opportunistic infections, and oral mucositis. It is still necessary to establish which microorganisms are predominant in the oral microbiota of children with leukemia, which factors influence it, what is its relationship with oral mucositis and what is their impact in the quality of life. To better understand the risks of secondary infection, it is important to develop preventive and/or therapeutic strategies to control the side effects of antineoplastic treatment in the mouth that may negatively impact the quality of life, to expose the risk of death as well as raise hospital costs for the care of children with leukemia. Objective: To identify the clinical characteristics of the oral condition, types of microorganisms of the oral microbiota, and quality of life in children/adolescents with acute lymphoid leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia before and during antineoplastic treatment, and compare them with healthy children/adolescent individuals. Methodology: Longitudinal, case-control study, with a convenience sample. The study group, composed of children/adolescent individuals who have a definitive diagnosis of acute lymphoid leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia. The control group, non-syndromic children/adolescents, with no history of cancer, matched by age and gender. The clinical condition of the mouth will be evaluated by means of indexes: dental caries index (dmft index), gingival index (GA), and simplified oral hygiene index. The assessment of the quality of life through the ohip-14 and POS-version14 quality of life questionnaire and microbiological evaluation of saliva through MALDI-TOF analysis. Statistical analysis will be performed through relative risk for cohort study with more than three paired groups. Odds ratio, for the control group more than three controlled groups and Mcnemere, for comparison with the control group, for more than three paired groups.
For the FILO group, the standard of care for induction chemotherapy of elderly fit patients with AML is represented by the combination of Cytarabine, Idarubicin and Lomustine. The superiority of this combination was confirmed in a larger prospective study the LAMSA-2007. This induction treatment, followed by six courses of consolidation (Idarubicin and Cytarabine) followed then by a period of 6-month maintenance therapy, allows up to 80 % of remission, and a RFS of 46 % at 2 years. The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy on outcome of Venetoclax combined with Cytarabine versus Idarubicin combined with Cytarabine administered as post-remission therapy to elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia in first complete remission (CR) following induction chemotherapy.
This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multi-center study evaluating the safety, tolerability, efficacy and PK of APG-2575 in combination with Azacitidine in the patients with AML/MPAL or MDS/CMML. The study consists of dose escalation (Part I) and dose expansion phase (Part II)
This phase I trial evaluates the side effects of uproleselan, azacitidine, and venetoclax in treating older or unfit patients with treatment naive acute myeloid leukemia. Uproleselan may help block the formation of growths that may become cancer. Chemotherapy drugs, such as azacitidine, 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. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Giving uproleselan with azacitidine and venetoclax may help kill more cancer cells.
