Eligible untreated patients with FLT3 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) between the ages of 18 and 70 will be randomized to receive gilteritinib or midostaurin during induction and consolidation. Patients will also receive standard chemotherapy of daunorubicin and cytarabine during induction and high-dose cytarabine during consolidation. Gilteritinib, is an oral drug that works by stopping the leukemia cells from making the FLT3 protein. This may help stop the leukemia cells from growing faster and thus may help make chemotherapy more effective. Gilteritinib has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for patients who have relapsed or refractory AML with a FLT3 mutation but is not approved by the FDA for newly diagnosed FLT3 AML, and its use in this setting is considered investigational. Midostaurin is an oral drug that works by blocking several proteins on cancer cells, including FLT3 that can help leukemia cells grow. Blocking this pathway can cause death to the leukemic cells. Midostaurin is approved by the FDA for the treatment of FLT3 AML. The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of gilteritinib to midostaurin in patients receiving combination chemotherapy for FLT3 AML.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well larotrectinib works in treating patients with previously untreated TRK fusion solid tumors and TRK fusion acute leukemia that has come back. Larotrectinib may stop the growth of cancer cells with TRK fusions by blocking the TRK enzymes needed for cell growth.
This trial evaluates how well CPX-351 and enasidenib work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia characterized by IHD2 mutation. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving CPX-351 and enasidenib may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, compared to giving only one of these therapies alone.
Non-Hodgkin CD20 + Indolent Lymphoma (iNHL) and Chronic Lymphatic Leukemia (CLL) are the most frequent neoplasms of B lymphocytes. They include various histologies (follicular NHL, marginal zone NHL and Lymphocytic NHL/ CLL) characterized by a chronic course and prolonged survival, but while patients with a limited disease could be cured, those with advanced disease or relapsed after localized radiation therapy are generally considered untreatable through standard treatments. The options for first-line therapy include the use of the FCR scheme, based on Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and Rituximab or the BR, with Bendamustine and Rituximab. Despite good results, treatment with these two regimens (FCR or BR) is associated with severe immunosuppression which worsens the immunological dysfunction already present at diagnosis in several patients. It has been shown previously that the adoptive transfer of ex vivo anti-CD3/CD28 co-stimulated autologous T cells can successfully accelerate a robust early recovery of T cells after autologous transplantation in multiple myeloma. These CD3/CD28 expanded T cells cannot however be used in NHLi and CLL due to the presence of contaminating tumor cells in the preparation. Polyclonal T cells can also be expanded in vitro in presence of Blinatumomab and recombinant human IL2 (rhIL2) and have been called BET (Blinatumomab-expanded T cells). They are a product of Advanced Therapeutic Medicinal Product (ATMP) composed of polyclonal CD8 and CD4 T cells that are still functional and devoid of contaminating CD19+ neoplastic cells. Based on these data, it was hypothesized that infusion of BET in patients with iNHL/CLL, after the first treatment line (with FCR or BR), could induce adequate immunological recovery.
The current national acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) trial in adults investigated whether a low (reduced) intensity chemotherapy regimen prior to transplant could improve the outcome of patients with ALL who are over 40 years of age. The results (60% 2 year survival) are very encouraging but patients who come to transplant with small amounts of 'residual' disease had less good outcomes. The goal of this trial is to see if a slightly stronger chemotherapy regimen (involving total body irradiation, (TBI)) can improve results by reducing the chance of the disease coming back (relapsing) without increasing the chance of not surviving the transplant. Up to 242 patients will be 'randomised' to the trial to receive either the established chemotherapy of fludarabine and melphalan or cyclophosphamide and TBI to compare the outcomes between the two treatment regimens. Other measures to reduce relapse will be the earlier use of donor white cell infusions and earlier stopping of immune suppressive drugs to enhance the immune effect of the transplanted cells (graft). Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 3 years. All patients on the next national ALL trial (UKALL XV) will be offered this trial but it will also be open to patients not on this study.
This is a phase 1/2 study of a drug called Ixazomib in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy consisting of Vincristine, Dexamethasone, Asparaginase, and Doxorubicin (VXLD).
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of venetoclax and how well it works in combination with low-intensity chemotherapy in patients with B- or T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has not responded to treatment or that has come back. Venetoclax may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, including vincristine, cyclophosphamide, dexamethasone, rituximab, methotrexate, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax with low-intensity chemotherapy may work better in treating patient with B- or T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Background: Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare, slow-growing blood cancer in which the bone marrow makes too many of certain white blood cells. The antibody Rituximab/Ruxience binds to a protein in cancerous white blood cells and is often used to treat HCL. Researchers want to see if combining it with the drug Moxetumomab pasudotox-tdfk (also called Lumoxiti) can fight HCL better. Objective: To test the safety of Moxetumomab pasudotox taken with Rituximab/Ruxience for people with HCL or HCL variant. Eligibility: People age 18 years and older with HCL or HCL variant that has not responded to standard therapy Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, heart, and urine tests Test of blood oxygen levels Review of bone marrow. This can be from previous test results or a new sample. Scans Exercise test Participants will get the study drugs in up to 8 cycles. A cycle will last about 28 days. The study drugs will be given through a plastic tube in a vein. In the first week of cycle 1, participants will have: 1 visit to get Rituximab or Ruxience for 7.5 hours 3 visits to get Lumoxiti for 30 minutes per infusion In the first week of cycles 2-8, participants will have: 1. visit to get Rituximab/Ruxience for 2-4 hours and Lumoxiti for 30 minutes 2. visits to get Lumoxiti for 30 minutes per infusion Participants will be asked to drink lots of water and take aspirin during the cycles. They will get drugs to minimize allergic reactions. Participants will repeat screening tests at visits throughout the cycles and 1 follow-up visit. They may have an eye exam. ...
