Filter by:Background: Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART) therapy is a form of immunotherapy which can be used to treat people with relapsed B-ALL. For those who achieve remission after CART alone, it may cure up to 50% of people who receive this therapy. However, for people who relapse after CART, it can be hard to achieve remission again. In patients where CART fails, stem cell transplant (HCT) can be used to prevent relapse and achieve cure. But HCT can cause serious side effects. Better testing is needed to distinguish people who can be cured with CART alone from people who may also need to have HCT. Objective: To see if the use of a series of blood and bone marrow tests at regular intervals can help monitor for B-ALL relapse after CART therapy. Eligibility: People aged 1 to 25 years with B-ALL who have had CART therapy within the past 42 days. They must never have had a blood stem cell transplant; they must also have no measurable blood cancer cells. Design: Participants will visit the clinic every 2 weeks starting 42 days after they receive CART therapy. Each visit will be about the same amount of time as a regular clinic visit. about 8 hours. Participants will have blood drawn for testing on each visit. Bone marrow biopsy/aspirate will be done during 4 of the visits at routine timepoints after CART. A needle will be inserted to draw a sample of tissue from inside the bone in the hip. A small amount of blood and tissue will be tested with ClonoSEQ and to evaluate for normal B-cells side by side with the standard tests. The combined testing may help determine whether participants are eligible for HCT and/or at risk of relapse after CART. Participants will be in the study for 1 year
T-cell lymphoma/leukemia is a group of highly lethal diseases with a high relapse rate and poor prognosis. CD7 was proved to be widely expressed in T-cell malignant, which makes it a promising therapeutic target. In this study we aim to test the safety and efficacy of CD7 CAR-T cells in T-cell lymphoma/leukemia.
To evaluate the safety of autologous CAR-T cell injection in the treatment of recurrent and refractory hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Venetoclax Combining Chidamide and Azacitidine (VCA) Followed by D-MAG Regimen on the Treatment of Elderly Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
This is an open-label, multi-center Phase 1b clinical study of oral AS-1763 in patients with CLL/SLL or B-cell NHL who have failed or are intolerant to ≥2 lines of systemic therapy.
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy vs. standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. Asparaginase is part of the standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL), and mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). However, in adolescent and young adults (AYA) ages 15-39 years, liver toxicity from asparaginase is common and often prevents delivery of planned chemotherapy, thereby potentially compromising outcomes. Some groups of people may also be at higher risk for liver damage due to the presence of fat in the liver even before starting chemotherapy. Patients who are of Japanese descent, Native Hawaiian, Hispanic or Latinx may be at greater risk for liver damage from chemotherapy for this reason. Carnitine is a naturally occurring nutrient that is part of a typical diet and is also made by the body. Carnitine is necessary for metabolism and its deficiency or absence is associated with liver and other organ damage. Levocarnitine is a drug used to provide extra carnitine. Laboratory and real-world usage of the dietary supplement levocarnitine suggests its potential to prevent or reduce liver toxicity from asparaginase. The overall goal of this study is to determine whether adding levocarnitine to standard of care chemotherapy will reduce the chance of developing severe liver damage from asparaginase chemotherapy in ALL, LL and/or MPAL patients.
This prospective trial investigates the effect of sorafenib maintenance therapy in FLT3 negative acute leukemia patients after allo-HSCT in terms of gut microbiome.
This phase II trial tests whether decitabine and cedazuridine (ASTX727) in combination with venetoclax work better than ASTX727 alone at decreasing symptoms of bone marrow cancer in patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) with excess blasts. Blasts are immature blood cells. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Cobimetinib is used in patients whose cancer has a mutated (changed) form of a gene called BRAF. It is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of cancer cells. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. The combination of ASTX727 and venetoclax may be more effective in reducing the cancer signs and symptoms in patients with CMML, or MDS/MPN with excess blasts.
T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL)/Lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) is a hematological malignancy caused by malignant transformation and clonal expansion of T-lineage precursor cells. The long-term cure rate of pediatric patients with T-ALL/LBL reaches 90%, but long-term survival of adult patients is less than 60%. Moreover, patients with high-risk factors such as PTEN/NRAS gene mutation, early T cell precursor (ETP) phenotype or positive minimal residual disease (MRD) have high rates of chemoresistance and dismal outcome. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) can significantly improve the prognosis of high-risk T-ALL/LBL. Total body irradiation (TBI)-based conditioning chemotherapy regimen is the preferred regimen for allo-HSCT in children and young adults with ALL because of lower relapse rates and satisfactory survival. Different from children, the non-relapse-related mortality (NRM) after TBI-based preconditioning in adults (especially those >35 years old) was reported as high as 38%. In addition, serious sequelae after TBI seriously affect the quality of life and non-radiation conditioning chemotherapy regimens are urgently needed for T-ALL/LBL. The reported recurrence rates after BUCY (busulfan + cyclophosphamide) conditioning regimen for T-ALL as 41.2%. -56.7% and long-term survival was only 30-50%. Thiotepa is an ethyleneimine alkylating agent with anti-tumor effects and immunosuppressive effects, thus is widely used in conditioning regimen before HSCT. Retrospective paired analysis from EBMT indicated conditioning regimen thiotepa achieved similar relapse rates, long-term survival and faster granulocyte and platelet engraftment than TBI regimen. A recent retrospective study of childhood ALL from Turkey also reported that the TBF(thiotepa + fludarabine + busulfan) regimen had a recurrence rate of only 11.9% , a non-relapse mortality rate of 14.0% and a long-term survival of 79.1%. Data from a large retrospective paired study suggested TBF regimen can significantly reduce the relapse rate of acute myeloid leukemia after the first remission (HR=0.4, CI 0.2-0.7, P = .02) without increasing treatment related deaths compared with the traditional BUCY regimen. Based on these data, we modified the TBF regimen with additional cytarabine for allo-HSCT in T-ALL/LBL with expection to reduced disease relapse and improved long-term survival.
This study aims to learn about the safety, tolerability, and different dose levels' safety profiles of Venetoclax and Bomedemstat (VenBom) combination therapy in participants with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
