Filter by:The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of receiving a combination of ondansetron and aprepitant to receiving ondansetron alone in helping to prevent nausea and/or vomiting in patients with Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who are receiving cytarabine. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
Recent retrospective studies have suggested that iron overload is a clinically important problem in patients undergoing ablative stem cell transplantation. However, these studies relied on serum ferritin as a surrogate of iron overload, which limits the conclusions that can be drawn from such analyses. Therefore, the investigators are conducting a prospective study to more rigorously examine the prevalence, mechanisms, and consequences of iron overload in this patient population.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of AZD1152 alone and in combination with low dose cytosine arabinoside (LDAC) in comparison with LDAC alone in AML patients.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of azacitidine and vorinostat can help to control AML or MDS better than azacitidine alone. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
The purpose of this randomized, two-arm, open-label expansion phase study was to collect preliminary efficacy data of panobinostat at the recommended phase II dose (RPIID) level in combination with azacytidine (5-Aza) versus an active control arm 5-Aza alone. This randomized phase II part also allowed collecting safety data of panobinostat in combination with 5-Aza in comparison to single-agent 5-aza.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn the most tolerable dose of Nexavarâ (sorafenib) when given in combination with Mobozilâ (plerixafor) and Neupogenâ (filgrastim) to patients with AML. The safety of this combination will also be studied. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
This study is a phase II randomized multicenter study. Patients will be enrolled at time of diagnosis and will receive one or two cycles of induction chemotherapy. Patients, without indication of intensification by allogeneic stem cell transplantation and/or without HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen)-compatible donor, who attain a CR after one or two cycles of induction chemotherapy, will be eligible for the study Clofarabine / Intermediate-Dose Cytarabine (CLARA)versus High-Dose Cytarabine (HDAC)and will be randomized between 3 courses of CLARA chemotherapy and 3 courses of HDAC chemotherapy as consolidation. We will compare efficacy and toxicity among the two arms.
Randomized comparison of standard induction treatment with daunorubicin for 3 days and Idarubicin for 3 or 4 days in adult AML patients between 50 and 70 years. Study of maintenance treatment with IL2
The main objective of this study is to compare conventional chemotherapy: daunorubicin and the Aracytine and this chemotherapy in combination with the monoclonal antibody used Mylotarg in divided doses.
A study to assess the safety and tolerability of AZD1152 in combination with low dose cytosine arabinoside (LDAC) in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). The first three patients to complete a 28 day cycle in the cohort, before the second three patients start treatment.
