Filter by:RATIONALE: Testing for minimal residual disease in cell samples from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia may help doctors plan better treatment. PURPOSE: This research trial studies a genetic test in identifying previously undetectable minimal residual disease in cell samples from younger patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
This is a phase 2, open-label, single institution trial of combination of intravenous (IV) ofatumumab and oral GSK2110183 in patients with relapsed or refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). Patients must have received at least one prior line of therapy containing fludarabine (single-agent or combination therapy). During the initial 6 months Treatment Phase, ofatumumab will be administered weekly for 8 doses, then once every 4 week cycle for an additional 4 doses (dose and schedule identical to the pivotal phase 2 trial) and GSK2110183 will be given daily PO (Treatment Phase). There will be an initial 10 day lead-in with GSK2110183 alone prior to initiation of ofatumumab to allow for evaluation of changes in cell surface expression due to GSK2110183 and for GSK2110183 pharmacokinetic studies (Lead-in Phase). The official Cycle 1 Day 1 will start on the date of first dose of ofatumumab. Cycle duration = 4 weeks. Patients will be assessed for safety, disease assessment, response, and survival on day 1 of each cycle during the Treatment Phase. A formal review of safety data by the Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) after the first 6 patients have completed cycle 1 of the Treatment Phase will be performed before continuing accrual. All patients achieving SD, PR or CR by the end of the Treatment Phase will proceed to the Maintenance Phase. Patients with PD at any time, including by the end of Treatment Phase, will be taken off study. During the Maintenance Phase, single-agent GSK2110183 will be administered daily for a maximum of 12 months (12 cycles). Maximum duration on any study drug is 18 months (18 cycles). During the Follow-up Phase, patients will be assessed for safety, disease assessment, response, and survival every 3 months through month 36 (year 3), or until subsequent CLL therapy or death, whichever comes first. Key indications for study withdrawal are progressive disease, intolerable toxicity, or completion of therapy
This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, melphalan, and low-dose total-body irradiation (TBI) followed by donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving chemotherapy drugs such as fludarabine phosphate and melphalan, and low-dose TBI before a donor PBSCT helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from the donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cell from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening
The goal of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and the tolerance of the combination of nilotinib with chemotherapy in the front-line setting as induction and consolidation therapy in Ph+ ALL patient aged 55 years and over. A European consensus has been reached to adopt a common chemotherapeutic schedule for patients aged 55 years and over. This schedule will be used in this trial with the addition of nilotinib as concomitant therapy during induction, consolidation and maintenance. The patients will be prospectively monitored for minimal residual disease and bcr-abl tyrosine kinase domain mutations.
This trial is a prospective, open-label, single-arm trial of the safety of a single FT1050-treated CB unit for hematopoietic reconstitution after a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen for hematologic malignancies. A maximum of 40 eligible adult subjects will be enrolled and treated in the trial at approximately 2-4 centers within the U.S.
This phase II trial studies how well donor atorvastatin treatment works in preventing severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after nonmyeloablative peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant in patients with hematological malignancies. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, before a donor PBSC transplantation slows the growth of cancer cells and may also prevent the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also cause an immune response against the body's normal cells (GVHD). Giving atorvastatin to the donor before transplant may prevent severe GVHD.
Laboratory and other studies suggest that, the study drug, Everolimus (RAD001), may prevent tumor cell growth and also may increase the efficacy of other chemotherapy drugs. Everolimus is approved for use in the United States for certain types of cancer, such as kidney cancer. It has been extensively studied in people with various types of cancer as a single agent (a drug that is used alone to treat the cancer) or in combination with a number of other drugs. Studies in adults with cancer have also evaluated Everolimus in combination with other anti-tumor drugs. Information from lab studies and some other clinical trials suggests that Everolimus may kill leukemia cells on its own, and also make it more likely that steroids (such as prednisone) are able to kill leukemia cells. In this research study, we are looking to learn more about how Everolimus works in combination with other drugs which are commonly used to treat relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (prednisone, vincristine, PEG-asparaginase, and doxorubicin). The main goal of the study is to evaluate the side effects of this treatment combination in order to determine a safe dose of Everolimus which can be given with these other 4 drugs.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated and efficient dose of GRASPA® in combination with polychemotherapy treatment of elderly patients with ALL, 55 years and over, Philadelphia chromosome-negative (ALL Ph-).
This phase 1 trial studies the side effects and the best dose of donor CD8+ memory T-cells in treating patients with hematolymphoid malignancies. Giving low dose of chemotherapy before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-cancer effects). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help increase this effect
This is a Phase II open label study of crenolanib besylate. This study will enroll subjects with relapsed or refractory AML with FLT3 activating mutations. Prior treatment with other FLT3 TKIs is allowed. Subjects will take crenolanib 200mg/m2/day divided in three doses daily (preferably every eight hours), taken orally at least 30 minutes pre or post meal until disease progression, death, or the patient discontinues treatment for adverse events, investigator's judgment, or other reasons. Patients who are able to proceed to allogeneic stem cell transplant will be able to resume crenolanib therapy post-transplant in an attempt to maintain remission.
