Filter by:Background: People cope with cancer in different ways. Mindfulness means focusing on the present moment with an open mind. Researchers want to see if this can help children and young adults with a high-grade high-risk cancer with poor prognosis. Objective: To learn if mindfulness is feasible and acceptable for children and young people with high-grade high-risk cancer with poor prognosis and their caregivers. Eligibility: Children ages 5-24 with a high-grade or high-risk cancer, with a caregiver who agrees to do the study Must have internet access (participants may borrow an iPod for the study) Must speak English Design: All participants will complete questionnaires. These will be about feelings, physical well-being, quality of life, and mindfulness. Researchers will review children's medical records. Participants will be randomly put in the mindfulness group or the standard care group. Participants in the standard care group will: Get general recommendations for coping with cancer Have check-in sessions 1 and 3 weeks after starting. These will last about 10 minutes each. After participants finish the standard care group, they may be able to enroll in the mindfulness group. Participants in the mindfulness group will: Attend an in-person mindfulness training session. The child participant will meet with one research team member for 90 minutes while the parent participant meets with another. Then they will come together for a half hour. Practice mindfulness exercises at least 4 days a week for 8 weeks. Be asked to respond to weekly emails or texts asking about their mindfulness practice Get a mindfulness kit with things to help them do their mindfulness activities at home. Have a 30-minute check-in with their coach 1 and 3 weeks after starting. This can be in person or by video chat. All participants (from both groups) will be asked to answer follow-up questions about 8 and 16 weeks after starting the study. Participants will be paid $20 for each set of questionnaires they complete to thank them for their time. ...
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor lymphocyte infusions when given together with daratumumab and to see how well they work in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after a stem cell transplant. A donor lymphocyte infusion is a type of therapy in which lymphocytes (white blood cells) from the blood of a donor are given to a participant who has already received a stem cell transplant from the same donor. The donor lymphocytes may kill remaining cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving daratumumab and donor white blood cells may work better in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia.
1. Detection of IDH2 mutations in AML patients to define it incidence and correlation with clinical characteristics, relapse-free and overall survival. 2. Identify AML patients who are potential candidates for IDH2 inhibitor treatment. 3. Monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) following therapy to evaluate its possible role in the strategy of MRD-directed therapy in the future in patients carrying IDH2 mutations at initial diagnosis.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dosing frequency of gemtuzumab ozogamicin when given in combination with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), cladribine, cytarabine and mitoxantrone (GCLAM) and to see how well they work in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia or high-grade myeloid tumors (neoplasms) that have not been previously treated. Antibody-drug conjugates, such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin, act by directly delivering toxic chemotherapy to cancer cells. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor is a growth factor used to stimulate leukemia cells and render them more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine, cytarabine and mitoxantrone, 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 gemtuzumab ozogamicin in combination with G-CSF, cladribine, cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride may work better in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia or high-grade myeloid neoplasm.
This observational retrospective study will enroll at least 158 patients affected by Chronic Lymphoid Leukemia (CLL) with previous HBV exposure (HBsAg negative, anti-HBc positive with or without anti-HBs) treated with Ibrutinib single agent according to the IWCLL criteria 2008. Patients will be divided into two cohorts, one encompassing patients who received lamivudine and the second one including patients who received no prophylaxis. Each patient will be observed for one year from the first administration of Ibrutinib.
The purpose of this observational study is to provide data on the incidence and severity of infusion-related reactions during and immediately following each infusion of VYXEOS during the first induction.
This study is a non-interventional, specimen collection translational study to evaluate vitamin C levels in the peripheral blood of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), or Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) patients.
This research study is studying a targeted therapy drug as a possible treatment for IDH2 mutant acute myeloid leukemia or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia while undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The drug involved in this study is: -Enasidenib.
The purpose of this study was to confirm the preliminary evidence from early clinical trials that midostaurin may provide clinical benefit not only to AML patients with the FLT3-mutations but also in FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML (FLT3 mutant to wild type signal ratio below the 0.05 clinical cut-off). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of midostaurin in combination with daunorubicin or idarubicin and cytarabine for induction and intermediate-dose cytarabine for consolidation, and midostaurin single agent post-consolidation therapy in newly diagnosed patients with FLT3-MN (SR<0.05) AML.
