Filter by:This randomized phase III trial is studying how well Caphosol rinse works in preventing mucositis in young patients undergoing autologous or donor stem cell transplant. Supersaturated calcium phosphate (Caphosol) rinse may be able to prevent mucositis, or mouth sores, in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
This Phase 3 study assesses two drug regimens as the initial treatment of patients who are at least 70 years of age and have newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) for whom the doctor does not recommend the use of standard intensive treatment or the patient has decided not to receive standard intensive treatment after being fully informed about its benefits and risks by his/her doctor. The two drug regimens are sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine or decitabine alone. The purpose of the study is to learn which drug regimen is more likely to keep AML in check as long as possible.
Phase II Multicentric Trial Open Label, Multicenter, randomized to evaluate the efficacy of a Maintenance Therapy in First Complete Remission After Induction for Elderly (≥ 60) Fit Patients With Poor Prognosis Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The disease-free survival (DFS) of the patients included in this study will be compared to the ones of the two previously reported groups of patients treated with the same LIA induction therapy
This phase I trial studies the side effects and maximum tolerated dose of yttrium Y 90 anti-cluster of differentiation 45 (CD45) monoclonal antibody BC8 (90Y-BC8) followed by donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that is likely to come back or spread. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate (FLU), and total-body irradiation (TBI) before a donor peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) or bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as 90Y-BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. When the healthy stem cells from a 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 cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving FLU, 90Y-BC8, and TBI before the transplant together with cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
This open-label, 2-arm, nonrandomized, multicenter, Phase Ib study will investigate the safety and efficacy of RO5072759 (GA101) administered in combination with chemotherapy (bendamustine or FC regimens) in patients with previously untreated CD20-positive B-CLL. Patients will be enrolled to receive a maximum of 6 cycles of GA101 (1000mg iv infusion, on days 1, 8 and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2 - 6) plus bendamustine (90 mg/m2 IV, on days 2 and 3 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 2 of cycles 2 - 6) on 28 day cycles or a maximum of 6 cycles of GA101 (1000mg iv infusion, on days 1, 8 and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2 - 6) plus FC (fludarabine 25 mg/m2 IV on days 2, 3 and 4 of cycle 1 and days 1, 2 and 3 of cycles 2 - 6; cyclophosphamide 250 mg/m2 IV on days 2, 3 and 4 of cycle 1 and days 1, 2 and 3 of cycles 2 - 6) on 28 day cycles.
This is a multi-center, phase 1, open-label first-in-human study of AMG 319 in subjects with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies. This study consists of two parts. The dose exploration in part 1, studies cohorts of 3 subjects with relapsed or refractory lymphoid malignancies and uses a practical continuous reassessment model [CRM] to guide dose escalation and to define the MTD. The dose expansion in part 2 will enroll 20 subjects with CLL at a dose no higher than the MTD and further explore the safety, PK, and clinical activity of AMG 319 in this patient population.
RATIONALE: Studying samples of bone marrow from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at biomarkers in bone marrow samples from young patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
Ex vivo expanded human myeloid progenitor cells (hMPCs; CLT-008) have the potential to accelerate neutrophil recovery and decrease the risk of febrile neutropenia and infection in patients receiving chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), or high-risk myelodysplasia (MDS). In this study, the safety, tolerability and activity of CLT-008 administered after "standard of care" cytarabine-based consolidation or induction/re-induction chemotherapy will be determined by monitoring for adverse reactions, infusion reactions, graft-versus host disease (GVHD), neutrophil and platelet recovery, hMPC persistence, infections and complications.
Adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia who experience a relapse after at least two prior treatment regimens may be enrolled in this trial. The trial will examine whether monotherapy with BI 836826 is safe and tolerable at escalating dose levels.
The study objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of US-ATG-F as a supplement to standard of care prophylaxis versus standard of care prophylaxis alone in moderate to severe chronic GVHD-free survival.
