This study will collect real-world safety and efficacy data from Japanese relapse/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL) participants treated with venetoclax.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy and Population Pharmacokinetics of Oral Posaconazole in Children with leukemia.
Empirical antibiotic therapy has been known to reduce the mortality and morbidity rate in neutropenic fever. Until now, ceftazidime was the first line choice of neutropenic fever. However, resistance against ceftazidime has been reported. Several countries have reported cefepime in reducing fever and shorten the length of hospitalization better than ceftazidime. This study is aimed to compare the effectivity of ceftazidime and cefepime to reduce fever and to increase the absolute neutrophils count (ANC) in the first 72 hours.
Evaluation of the association between risk and severity of asparaginase associated toxicities and asparaginase enzyme activity levels in children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treated in the NOPHO-ALL 2008 protocol.
Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome (MF/SS) are cancers that form in the T cells, a type of white blood cell that helps with the body's immune response. A combination of drugs might be able to better treat these cancers than existing therapies. Objective: To test if the drugs interleukin-15 (IL-15) and mogamulizumab are safe and effective to treat people with Adult T-Cell Leukemia and Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome (ATLL or MF/SS). Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed ATLL or MF/SS that has not responded to at least one standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood (including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C), urine, lung, and heart tests Bone marrow tests (if needed): A needle inserted in the participants hip will take a small amount of marrow. Computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Tumor biopsy (if needed): A needle will take out a small piece of the participants tumor. Participants will get the study drugs by vein for up to six 28-day cycles. They will get IL-15 the first 5 days of each cycle. They will get mogamulizumab on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 15 of the other cycles. They will be hospitalized for 1 week in cycle 1. They may need to get a midline catheter. This is a soft tube put into a vein leading to the heart. Participants will have repeats of the screening tests throughout the study. After treatment, participants will have visits every 60 days for 6 months, every 90 days for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 2 years.
Acute leukaemia (AL) is an aggressive but potentially curable cancer that can affect women of childbearing age. When a pregnancy is complicated by a diagnosis of AL, clinicians face a complex dilemma: to balance risking the mother's survival through delaying treatment, against the potential harm to the foetus through exposure to cancer drugs. Reports suggest that, providing the first trimester is avoided, successful treatment of AL during pregnancy is possible, and considered safe. However, there is currently no standard approach to treatment of these women. This observational study aims to monitor and record the current treatment and outcomes of patients diagnosed with acute leukaemia during or prior to pregnancy. Patients will receive the treatment recommended by their doctor, the study will not alter the treatment pathway of participants. This study will establish a new research database of Leukaemia in Pregnancy, initially collecting data from cases since August 2009, and any new cases that are diagnosed during the current funding period. The initial planned analyses from this dataset will enable more robust, evidence-based recommendations to be made on how to monitor and manage these patients, and will add value to and improve the existing British Committee for Standards in Haematology (BCSH) guidelines, which were largely derived from expert opinion. This should enable healthcare professionals to have greater confidence in managing these patients, leading to a more standardised approach to providing high quality care. The study will benefit National Health Service (NHS) Trusts and patients across the United Kingdom (UK) through more informed clinical decision making with regards to the care they receive. It will also provide an important data resource which researchers can apply to use in further analyses, with plans to continue data collection if further funding is obtained.
This is a phase 1, multi-center, single-arm study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics(PK)/ pharmacodynamics(PD), safety, and clinical efficacy of orally administered Ivosidenib in Chinese subjects with R/R AML with an IDH1 mutation.
Despite the suggestions that GA and frailty indices could be used to guide therapy selection, the ability to effectively incorporate the use of GA in older patients diagnosed with AML in a real-world clinic environment has not yet been established. Thus, in this study, the investigators seek to describe the feasibility of using this shorter GA tool, the mGA, administered via patient self-report on a touchscreen computer, as well as the real-time use and utility by clinicians and the correlation of mGA results on treatment decision-making.
This study will evaluate combining stem cells from the patient's matched sibling donor (a standard CD34-selected transplant) with a second infusion of white blood cells called "CD8 memory T-cells" from their sibling donor.
