Filter by:Acute Myeloid Leukemias (AML) of the child are a rare disease and its prognosis varies according to the subgroup. Secondary AMLs remain a subgroup of poor prognosis, whose cytogenetic and molecular characteristics and prognostic value differ in part from de novo AMLs. The purpose of this national observatory is to record scientific and medical information on cases of secondary AML that have occurred in France since 2013 in order to improve the treatment of children and adolescents with this disease in the years to come. This national observatory will contribute to better knowledge and progress in research into these diseases.
In this prospective, single arm, open label, clinical trial, a total of 50 acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage patients will be enrolled. Patients will receive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) -based chemotherapy and are permitted to receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after CR . Otherwise, they will finish the consolidation chemotherapy. Patients with t(9;22) will receive chemotherapy combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The purpose of current study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of ALL-based chemotherapy，effect of genetic abnormality and minimal residual disease (MRD) on prognosis in patients with acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage.
Several clinical trials have demonstrated the positive impact of physical functioning and fatigue in patients who received training programs during the myeloablative chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation. However, the heterogeneity among the forms of physical activity results in moderate to very low evidence available about benefits of physical exercise. In this randomized and controlled clinical trial, we will study the effects on physical performance and fatigue of periodic resistance training programs, with an autoregulated approach within a non-linear model, based on the individual patient response to cancer treatment.
1. To assess overall survival of AML patient. 2. To measure rate of disease free survival. 3. rate of non relapse mortality. 4. rate of complete remission . 5. percentage of refractory disease. 6. percentage of relapsed disease.
This is an open-label, single arm, phase 2 study to evaluate efficacy and safety of PD1 inhibitor Camrelizumab(SHR-1210) combined with DNA methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine in elderly patients with relapse and refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
Newly diagnosed adults patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia will be assessed as traditionally by the treating institution using classic clinical, demographic and cytogenetic variables. Complementary molecular tests will be performed in the patients included in the study using PCR to detect classic CBF (Core Binding Factor) rearrangements: CBFB-MYH11 [inv(16)(p13;q22), isoforms A, E and D; AML-ETO (RUNX1-RUNX1T1) (t8;21)(q22;q22). NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) to detect mutations in: FLT3-ITD and TKD, NPM1, CEBPA, RUNX1, TP53, ASXL1, IDH1, IDH2 and KIT
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by clonal expansion of myeloid progenitors (blasts) in the bone marrow and peripheral blood.Several studies have reported correlations of aberrantly expressed markers by flowcytometry with clinical outcome in AML. X-inactive specific transcript RNA was one of the first long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) to be discovered in the early 1990s. Xist RNA is the master regulator of XCI, the epigenetic process that equalizes the dosage of X-linked genes between female (XX) and male (XY) mammals. Yildirim et al., (2013) deleted Xist in the blood compartment of mice and demonstrated that mutant females developed a highly aggressive myeloproliferative neoplasm and myelodysplastic syndrome (mixed MPN/MDS) with 100% penetrance. Their study implies that human hematologic cancers may result from overdosage of X, either from Xist loss on Xi or from duplication of Xa. And they proposed that carcinogenesis is driven by a series of changes occurring in the HSC and further accumulated in mature hematopoietic cells. These changes are initiated by loss of Xist, which leads to progressive X reactivation, which in turn induces a cascade of unfavorable genome-wide changes that include dysregulation of genes involved in DNA replication, chromosome segregation, cell-cycle checkpoints, and hematopoiesis. A failure of HSC maturation and loss of long-term HSC in the marrow progressively shift hematopoiesis to extramedullary sites resulting in extra medullary hematopoiesis (EMH), thereby causally linking the X chromosome to cancer in mice. Thus, they concluded that Xist RNA not only is required to maintain XCI but also suppresses cancer in vivo. Indeed, the emerging role of aberrant gene dosage in diseases, whether of the X chromosome or for autosomes, brings with it the possible application of drugs that impact on epigenetic regulators in potential therapeutic strategies. To date, there are no published studies on human about Xist gene and its relationship with the immunophenotyping in AML patients. So, this will be the first study designed to explain its unexplored pathway in AML and detect its prognostic role and immunophenotypic association.
In this study, the investigators conducted a phase II trial that evaluated the efficacy and safety of cladribine in combination with modified CAG regimen (low-dose cytarabine and aclarubicin) in elderly patients with AML.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of individualized treatment of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) in Chinese children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and to investigate the dose-concentration-response (DER) relationship between thiopurine metabolites and adverse events. The individualized administration of 6-MP was established in Chinese children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Natural killer (NK) cells exert antitumor effects via their cytotoxic and cytokine-secreting capacity without present of clinical symptoms. In recent years, with the continuous advancement of in vitro expansion methods, the application of good quality management technology, NK cells could be clinical grade expanded without the need for pre-purification, feeder-free, and serum-free culture. In this clinical trial the investigators want to demonstrate the safety and efficacy chemotherapy combined with donor-derived in vitro activated NK cells infusion for high risk AML patients.
