Filter by:This is an open-label, non-randomised, multi-centre phase I-II study of CHR-2797 administered orally once a day. The study involves two distinct phases: - Phase I: an open-label, dose-escalating phase of the study to explore the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of CHR-2797. - Phase II: the recommended dose level of CHR-2797, as determined in phase I, will be administered to a further cohort of approximately 40 patients to determine whether CHR-2797 has sufficient biological activity against the disease(s) under study.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of temozolomide in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) participants who are not candidates for standard induction therapy and exhibit low MGMT expression.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy and total marrow irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood or hematopoietic 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. 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 cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of total marrow irradiation when given together with combination chemotherapy and umbilical cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplant in treating patients with acute leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia or multiple myeloma that did not respond to previous therapy.
RATIONALE: Panobinostat and imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of panobinostat when given together with imatinib in treating patients with previously treated chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.
Objectives: 1. To evaluate disease free survival after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies. 2. To evaluate the incidence and severity of acute and chronic GVHD after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion, in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing non-myelo-ablative stem cell transplantation. 3. To evaluate engraftment and chimerism after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies.
The present study is a multicenter, prospective phase II-study investigating the combination of treosulfan, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide as conditioning regimen for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who are not eligible for a TBI-containing regimen.
This multicenter, prospective phase III-study is to compare the administration of ATG FRESENIUS to the NON-administration of ATG FRESENIUS in a myeloablative conditioning regimen followed by allogeneic hematopoeitic stem cell transplantation from an HLA-identical sibling in patients with acute Leukemia. This clinical trial is to show that the administration of ATG FRESENIUS reduces the risk of chronic Graft-versus-Host disease after allogeneic stem cell transplantation from HLA-identical siblings.
This study is designed to determine whether Umbilical Cord Transplantation (UCB) can be substituted for adult bone marrow cells in the standard stem cell transplant regimens used at this hospital for subjects who do not have stem cell donors.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if ruxolitinib can help to control advanced hematological malignancies. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to find a safe dose of actinium-225 when it is labeled to HuM195. This will be done with a "phase I trial," in which a preset schedule of doses gets more powerful for each new group of patients as the trial progresses. If too many serious side effects are seen with a certain dose, no one will be treated with a higher dose, and some additional patients may be treated with a lower dose to make sure that this dose is safe. The starting dose of actinium-225 in this study is less than doses that are known to be safe in animals. Antibodies are proteins that are produced by the immune system and help the body to fight foreign substances, such as bacteria or viruses. HuM195 was made by putting human leukemia cells into mice. Most of the mouse parts of this antibody were replaced with human parts. Only the part of the antibody that binds to the leukemia cells was kept from the mouse. HuM195 attaches to leukemia cells but does not attach to most normal cells. It can kill small amounts of disease by identifying the leukemia cells as "foreign." HuM195 has worked less well against large amounts of leukemia since the normal immune cells needed to kill leukemia cells are lowered in most patients with leukemia.
