NCT ID: NCT00749502 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

A Study of MK4827 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors or Hematologic Malignancies (MK-4827-001 AM8)

Start date: September 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is a four-part dose-escalation and confirmation study in participants with advanced solid tumors. Part A is for dose escalation and determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MK-4827. Part B is a prostate/ovarian cancer cohort expansion. Part C is for a cohort of participants with relapsed or refractory T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Part D will be for a cohort of participants with locally advanced or metastatic colorectal carcinoma (CRC), persistent or recurrent endometrial carcinoma, locally advanced or metastatic triple negative or highly proliferative estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, or partially platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer. The study is also designed to find out whether MK-4827 causes at least 50% inhibition of poly adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase (PARP) enzyme activity.

NCT ID: NCT00743028 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Assess the Oral Bioavailability of New ABT-263 Formulations

Start date: August 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter crossover study to determine the oral bioavailability of new ABT-263 formulations relative to that of the current ABT-263 formulation being administered in ongoing Phase 1/2a studies. Approximately 36 evaluable subjects with lymphoid malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and solid tumors will be enrolled in this study.

NCT ID: NCT00742625 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Bortezomib, Daunorubicin, and Cytarabine in Treating Older Patients With Previously Untreated Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Start date: September 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given together with daunorubicin and cytarabine and to see how well it works in treating older patients with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as 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 bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

NCT ID: NCT00742144 Completed - Clinical trials for Leukaemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic and Lymphoma, Follicular

Ofatumumab in Japanese Patients With CD20 Positive Follicular Lymphoma or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Start date: September 19, 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label study to evaluate safety, tolerability, efficacy and PK profile of ofatumumab monotherapy in Japanese follicular lymphoma (FL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. subject will receive ofatumumab 8 weekly infusions.

NCT ID: NCT00739388 Completed - Leukemia Clinical Trials

Azacitidine in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Previously Untreated or Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia Who Are Unsuitable For Intensive Chemotherapy

Start date: July 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well azacitidine works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia who are unsuitable for treatment with intensive chemotherapy.

NCT ID: NCT00739141 Completed - Leukemia Clinical Trials

Conditioning Regimen and the Transplantation of Unrelated Donor Umbilical Cord Blood in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies.

Start date: August 12, 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The traditional way of doing a donor transplant is to give high doses of chemotherapy and radiation before giving the stem cells. However, high doses of chemotherapy and radiation can have serious side-effects. The doctors think that the transplant will be safer and more likely to be successful with reduced doses of chemotherapy and radiation. The purpose of this study is to find out how good a combination of chemotherapy and radiation at reduced doses followed by a cord blood transplant are at treating cancer. The stem cells chosen for the transplant are from umbilical cord blood. Umbilical cord blood is collected from healthy newborn babies and frozen. One cord blood collection is called a "cord blood unit." On transplant day, the cord blood will be given through the catheter just like a blood transfusion. Transplants done this way have been successful. However, this type of transplant is fairly new. Therefore, it is important to study it so the doctors can better understand how it works. Most blood or bone marrow transplants using donor stem cells are done as part of a study. When patients are on a study we test new ways of treating them which we think may be better than the old ways. We collect information about the result of this treatment so we can understand how well the treatment works. This is so we can learn better ways to treat our patients.

NCT ID: NCT00738374 Completed - Clinical trials for Lymphocytic Leukemia, Chronic

A Study of MabThera (Rituximab) Plus Chlorambucil in Patients With Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia.

Start date: November 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This single arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of MabThera + chlorambucil as induction therapy, followed in responders by maintenance therapy or observation in elderly patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia. During the induction phase patients will receive 2 x 4 weekly courses of chlorambucil followed by 8 x 4 weekly courses of chlorambucil + MabThera. Subsequently, responders will be randomized to receive 12 doses of MabThera given every 8 weeks, or no further treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.

NCT ID: NCT00737516 Completed - Lymphoma Clinical Trials

Centralized Cord Blood Registry to Facilitate Unrelated Cord Blood Transplantation

Start date: January 2000
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) has established a system for registering, matching, and tracking unrelated donor cord blood units (CBUs) and transplant outcomes. Study subjects are donors who enroll through collaborating cord blood banks. This study creates uniform collection, screening, testing and storage requirements for cord blood units. The purpose of standardization is to improve efficiency in the selection of cord blood units for transplantation.

NCT ID: NCT00735930 Completed - Anemia Clinical Trials

Lenalidomide and Alvocidib in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

Start date: August 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with alvocidib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Lenalidomide may stop the growth of leukemia or lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Alvocidib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving lenalidomide together with alvocidib may kill more cancer cells.

NCT ID: NCT00732316 Completed - Leukemia Clinical Trials

Donor Stem Cell Transplant After Busulfan, Fludarabine, and Antithymocyte Globulin in Treating Patients With Hematologic Cancer or Myelodysplastic Syndrome

Start date: April 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy and antithymocyte globulin before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal 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 and abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well a donor stem cell transplant works after busulfan, fludarabine, and antithymocyte globulin in treating patients with hematologic cancer or myelodysplastic syndrome.
