Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ON 01910.Na Concentrate when it is administered as an intravenous continuous infusion (IVCI) over 72 hours once every 2 weeks in a broad population of MDS patients. Rationale for this study is based on the activity observed in another study with ON 01910.Na in patients with refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB) 1 and 2 MDS. This study will examine ON 01910.Na in a broader population of MDS and AML patients. This phase I/II study will establish the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) starting with a dose of 800 mg/m2 per day administered over 24 hours for 2 consecutive days as a continuous intravenous infusion, once a week for 3 weeks of a 4-week cycle and examine the efficacy and safety profile at the MTD.
This is an open-label, Phase I study to determine the highest amount of the study drug, ON 01910.Na, that can be safety given to patients with high risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or refractory leukemias. Patients will receive ON 01910.Na (at a starting dose of 650 mg/m2) intravenously by 3-day continuous infusion once every 2 weeks. Successive courses will use longer infusion times and/or higher doses of the drug until toxicity, effectiveness, or ineffectiveness is recognized. In addition, the amount of drug in the blood will be measured, any antitumor activity will be documented, and the biological effect of ON 01910.Na on cell-cycle pathways will be evaluated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
This is a Phase Ib/IIa open-labeled multi-center trial evaluating the feasibility of dasatinib given after standard induction therapy with daunorubicin (DNR) and cytarabine (ARA-C), after consolidation therapy with high-dose cytarabine (HDAC), and as single agent in a one-year maintenance therapy in patients with newly diagnosed CBF AML. 82 patients with newly diagnosed CBF AML will be enrolled at AMLSG study centers. All AML patients will be assessed for the CBF fusion genes via the central laboratory of the AMLSG within 48 hours of diagnosis of AML, and only patients with CBF AML will be enrolled into the study.
Our purpose in this study is to explore the feasibility of treatment of non promyelocytic Acute myeloid leukaemia on elderly patients. We select ten patients with age further than 60 with comorbidity and treat by low dose cytosar subcutaneous plus arsenic trioxide for ten days in month. We will assess overall response rate and overall survival in end of one year.
Bone marrow transplants are one treatment option for people with leukemia or lymphoma. Family members or unrelated donors with a similar type of bone marrow usually donate their bone marrow to the transplant patients. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a new type of bone marrow transplant-one that uses lower doses of chemotherapy and bone marrow donated from family members with only partially matched bone marrow-in people with leukemia or lymphoma.
RATIONALE: Gathering information about patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia who are discharged after finishing chemotherapy, or who stay in the hospital until blood counts return to normal, may help doctors learn more about a patient's quality of life, use of medical services, and the cost of these services. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying early discharge and outpatient care in patients who have undergone chemotherapy for myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as laromustine, daunorubicin, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of laromustine when given together with daunorubicin and cytarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
This protocol is a multicenter, national, open-label, single-arm, non-controlled study designed to establish the efficacy (in terms of response and survival) and safety of panobinostat in combination with idarubicin and cytarabine and in monotherapy in patients with newly-diagnosed AML aged 65 years or older.
This phase I/II trial studied the side effects and best dose of clofarabine when given together with cytarabine and to see how well they work in treating older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that have relapsed or not responded to treatment.
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a patient's white blood cells (dendritic cells) and a specific leukemia antigen (Wilms tumor antigen-1) may induce an effective immune response to kill residual leukemic cells and/or prevent leukemia relapse. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intradermal mRNA-transfected dendritic cell vaccination therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
