Filter by:This phase Ib trial studies the best dose of gemtuzumab ozogamicin when given together with CPX-351 in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after it was previously in remission. CPX-351 is a chemotherapy, which works 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. Gemtuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called gemtuzumab, linked to chemotherapy called calicheamicin. Gemtuzumab attaches to CD33 (transmembrane receptor) positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers ozogamicin to kill them. Giving CPX-351 and gemtuzumab ozogamicin may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, compared to giving only one of these therapies alone.
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 553 in adult and adolescent subjects with FLT3-positive R/R AML. Determine the maximum tolerated cell dose (MTCD) or recommended phase 2 cell dose (RP2CD) of AMG 553.
We previously reported results of a prospective observational study demonstrating that early response defined as reduction in bone marrow (BM) blast counts to less than 5% of BM cells by the fifth day of induction therapy is a strong predictor of remission and overall survival (Ofran Y, et al. AJH, 2015). The long term survival benefit of early response was confirmed later on after a median follow-up for surviving patients of 53 months (range 17.5-84.5).
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia aged 65-75 have a very poor prognosis, irrespective of the treatment strategy, including demethylating agents or conventional chemotherapy. With these approaches, remission rates do not exceed 40%, and overall disease-free survival at 1 year is in the order of 15%. The hypothesis is that up-front allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant will produce a complete remission rate of 60% on day +56-70, and disease-free survival at 1 year of 30%. This is a single arm phase II study of upfront allogeneic stem cell transplantation, for patients with acute myeloid leukemia aged 65-75: the primary endpoint is a complete remission rate on day +56-70. The secondary endpoint is a 1-year overall disease-free survival of 30%.
This phase I study hopes to explore how safe and tolerable is the combination of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) and midostaurin, with the standard induction therapy (cytarabine and daunorubicin) in patients with newly diagnosed FLT-3 mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). GO is FDA approved for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed CD33 positive AML and used in combination with chemotherapy, cytarabine and daunorubicin. Midostaurin is FDA approved for use with cytarabine and daunorubicin in patients with FLT3-mutated AML. By combining standard induction therapy with GO and midostaurin, our aim is to investigate a novel approach to treating patients with newly diagnosed FLT3-mutated AML.
The trial is a randomized, open-label phase III study comparing CPX-351 vs conventional intensive induction and consolidation chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed AML and intermediate- or adverse-risk genetics (according to 2017 ELN criteria), including AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) and therapy-related AML according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Overall survival (OS) in the restricted set of de novo patients will be the primary endpoint.
This is a single center, open-label phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of targeted CD19 chimeric antigen receptor engineered T cell immunotherapy (CART) in the treatment of CD19 positive relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
- To detect SRSF2 gene mutation by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the two types of t-MDS/AML which recognized in the WHO classification. - Association between SRSF2 gene mutation and the presence of other cytogenetic abnormalities in the two types of t-MDS/AML which recognized in the WHO classification, e.g. (Loss of chromosome 7 or del(7q), del(5q), isochromosome 17q, recurrent balanced chromosomal translocations involving chromosomal segments 11q23 (KMT2A, previously called MLL) or 21q22.1 (RUNX1), and PML-RARA). - Relationship between SRSF2 gene mutation and cumulative dose, dose intensity, time of exposure and prognostic criteria (disease free survival, overall survival and disease course).
The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust is committed to improving patient experience; this research is being undertaken to try to develop a novel treatment for patients with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML). Researchers aim to develop a new therapy which uses a patient's own immune cells called T cells to treat AML. In this study, numbers and properties of T cells which can be collected from the blood of patients with AML at various points throughout their treatment will be investigated. Blood samples will be collected at the same time as the patient's bone marrow test. If patients need further bone marrow tests during their course of treatment to assess the status of disease, the research team would ask that additional samples are taken at the same time as the bone marrow and blood will be collected at the same time as the routine blood draw. Following collection of blood samples, they will be used to purify a population of blood cells called Gamma Delta T cells which have been shown to have a potential role in control of cancers. In addition the researchers plan to determine whether it is possible to put a novel receptor called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) to potentially directly target leukaemia cells. Currently this is only an exploratory study and none of the samples collected will be used for treatment and is only to assess whether or not this strategy is feasible. This may however lead on to studies in the future looking at the safety and effectiveness of this strategy. This hopefully will lead in the future to improvements in treatment and outcome for patients with AML.

This cohort study aims to investigate the composition and activity of the gut microbiota of patients newly diagnosed for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), in relationship with their food habits and cachectic hallmarks. The recruitment for this study is currently ongoing with the help of clinicians, nurses and data managers at the Saint-Luc clinics, University Hospital Leuven (Campus Gasthuisberg) and University Hospital Gent. Primary Objective •To assess the composition and activity of the gut microbiota in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) compared to matched control subjects. Secondary Objectives - To investigate correlations between the gut microbiota, cachectic hallmarks and gut microbiota-related markers in the blood (gut permeability markers, microbial compounds, microbial metabolites). - To characterize the changes in the gut microbial ecosystem that are induced by chemotherapy and associated with colitis. - To assess whether the composition of the gut microbiota can predict the severity of chemotherapy-related colitis. Study Design This is an academic multi-centric prospective study. The study is composed of two cohorts (Fig. 1). In Cohort A, patients are included before any chemotherapy. Biological samples (urine, feces, blood) are collected, alongside information on nutritional habits, appetite and medical records. Muscle strength and body composition are also measured. Only patients receiving a standard chemotherapy are included in Cohort B. In Cohort B, biological samples are collected and body composition, muscle strength and appetite are evaluated at 2 different time points, at the end of the chemotherapy (T1) and at discharge (T4).
