Filter by:Purpose There is a growing evidence of high efficacy of post-transplantation cyclophocphomide (PTCy)-based GVHD prophylaxis in haploidentical and matched related and unrelated bone marrow transplantation. There is limitted, but growing data on safety and efficacy of this prophylaxis in unrelated and peripheral blood stem cell transplantations. Use of PTCy in chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms and myelodisplatic syndrome is of particular interest. On the one hand, PTCy could reduce the incidence of chronic GVHD and long-term bormidity. On the other hand, there is a concern, that PTCy can increase the incidence of graft failures in this group of patients. Currently published data indicate that low-dose Thymoglobulin-based prophylaxis is the most promissing compatitor in terms of acute and chronic GVHD control. So there is a rationale to randomize Thymoglobulin and PTCy as GVHD prophilaxis. Pre-transplant assesment of moratlity (PAM)-index will be used as the strata for randomization, as it is the paramter that takes into account the most important factors effecting survival. The conditioning regimen and the other two components of GVHD prophylaxis (mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus) will be identical in the two arms of the study.
Pilot open-label study to estimate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intravenously administered, RNA electroporated autologous T cells expressing anti-CD123 chimeric antigen receptors expressing tandem TCR and 4-1BB (TCR /4-1BB) costimulatory domains (referred to as RNA CART123) in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) subjects.
B-acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common childhood malignancy. Despite enhancement of childhood B-ALL outcome, relapses remain difficult to treat. Several studies in adult acute myeloid leukaemia have shown that proliferation of immunosuppressive cells -particularly T regulatory (Treg) cells and deficient natural killer (NK) cells- was associated with poor response to chemotherapy. However, few studies have been done on childhood ALL and none on relapse of B-ALL. Moreover, a newly described immunosuppressive B cells subset (Breg cells) seems to have a role in oncogenesis in mice model, but its significance has never been evaluated in human cancers. The purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate the immune status of children newly diagnosed with first relapse of B-cell ALL, and to compare results with those of children treated for B-ALL in complete remission. Classic lymphocytic phenotype, proportions of immunosuppressive cells (Treg cells, deficient NK cells, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 and/or Programmed T cell death 1) and thymopoiesis will be evaluated. The investigators assume that increase of immunosuppressive cells proportions could be associated with B-ALL relapse.
This study will examine the safety and anti-leukemic profile of SGN-CD33A (vadastuximab talirine) in patients with relapsed chemo-resistant AML, who are given vadastuximab talirine in sequence with standard treatments before a planned stem cell transplant, or as maintenance therapy after a stem cell transplant. The main purpose of the study is to find the best dose and determine the anti-leukemic activity of vadastuximab talirine, given either pre- or post-allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) for adults with relapsed or refractory AML. This will be determined by assessing the safety and tolerability of vadastuximab talirine. In addition, the pharmacokinetic profile and anti-leukemic activity of the study treatment will be assessed.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of buparlisib when given together with ofatumumab or ibrutinib in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Buparlisib and ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ofatumumab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Giving buparlisib or ibrutinib and ofatumumab together may work better in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
This study evaluates the combination of ublituximab, a novel monoclonal antibody, and TGR-1202, a novel PI3K delta inhibitor compared to obinutuzumab and chlorambucil, and compared to ublituximab or TGR-1202 alone in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AGS67E in subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and determine a safe dose for future development. In addition, this study will assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), the immunogenicity, and the anti-leukemic activity of AGS67E.
In the setting of progressive or recurrent cancer, adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients, parents, and healthcare providers (HCP) are faced with multiple therapeutic options. Each treatment option has a unique risk/benefit ratio, resulting in a need to trade one desirable outcome for another or accept acute toxicities and treatment-related morbidity to increase the chance of survival. Adding to the complexity of this decision, stake holders characterize and value the risk/benefit ratios differently. This study seeks to learn what things are important to an adolescent or young adult with cancer, parents, and health care providers when making decisions about their treatment choices. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: To quantify the relative importance of various factors believed to be important to adolescent and young adult patients with cancer, parents, and health care providers when choosing between treatment options in the hypothetical situation of progressive or refractory disease.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if lirilumab and Opdivo (nivolumab), alone or in combination with Vidaza (azacitidine), can help to control MDS. The safety of these drug combinations will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Lirilumab is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes. Nivolumab is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of melanoma and non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Azacitidine is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of MDS. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 80 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
This is a single center, single arm, open-label pilot study to determine the feasibility and safety of a single dose of autologous T cells expressing CD22 chimeric antigen receptors expressing tandem TCRζ and 4-1BB (TCRζ/4-1BB) co-stimulatory domains (referred to as "CART22" cells) administered in split fractions, in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
