Filter by:This study evaluates the effect of pembrolizumab on the duration of remission in acute myeloid leukemia. Pembrolizumab is given after complete remission is obtained in those with AML at least 60 years old who are not candidates for allogeneic stem cell transplant. The primary purpose of this study is determine if the time to relapse can be extended. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of pembrolizumab will be closely monitored.
This study tests the ability of a focused dietary, exercise, and activity intervention to reduce fat gain during induction therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia to improve disease response and reduce toxicity.
Despite advances in their classification and treatment, acute leukemia remain incurable disease for the majority of patients. It is necessary to identify new prognostic markers of survival and new therapeutic targets to improve prognosis. Some studies have shown that Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3-ligand (FLT3-L) could be interesting from this. A more recent study from our group testing a novel therapy in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, showed an increase of this marker in the blood of patients responding to treatment. The aim of our prospective, non-interventional study is to measure the plasma levels of FLT3-L at different times of the management of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia but also myeloid. For this, analyzes of the samples collected in the usual care will be conducted to study the relationship between the plasma concentration of FLT3-L and outcomes. If there is any link, the FLT3-L could serve as a predictor of treatment response.
Background: Adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) is a rare blood cancer. Researchers want to see if a combination of two drugs - recombinant human interleukin 15 (rhIL-15) and alemtuzumab - is a better treatment for ATL. Objectives: To test if giving rhIL-15 combined with alemtuzumab improves the outcome of therapy for ATL. Also, to determine the safe dose of this combination and identify side effects and effects on the immune system. Eligibility: Adults 18 years and older with chronic or acute ATL who have not been helped by other treatments. Design: Participants will be screened with tests that are mostly part of their usual cancer care. They will sign a separate consent form for this. Weeks 1 and 2: Participants will have a total of 10 visits. They will: - Get rhIL-15 under the skin by needle. - Have a physical exam and vital signs measured. - Give blood samples. - Answer questions about their health and their medicines. Week 3: Participants will stay in the clinic. They will: - Get alemtuzumab infusions in a vein through a small catheter on days 1, 2, 3, and 5. - Take medicines to decrease side effects. - Have a computed tomography (CT) scan to evaluate the treatment. - Have a physical exam and vital signs measured. - Give blood samples. Answer questions about their health and medicines. Weeks 4, 5, and 6 will repeat week 3, without the CT scan. Some patients will just have outpatient visits these weeks. After treatment, participants will have follow-up visits every few months for up to 2 years. At these visits, participants will give blood samples and have CT scans.
A prospective, open-label, multicentre phase-II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a sequential regimen of bendamustine followed by ofatumumab and ibrutinib followed by ibrutinib and ofatumumab maintenance in CLL patients.
This is an open label, multicenter Phase 1 study to determine the MTD, dosing schedule and RP2D of IMGN779 when administered as mono-therapy to adult AML patients with CD33 -positive disease.
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Auto-HSCT) is an effective alternative to allogeneic HSCT for intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) without HLA-matched donors. At present, the best conditioning regimen for AML undergoing auto-HSCT remains in discussion. In this study, the safety and efficacy of IDA+BUCY and BUCY myeloablative conditioning regimens in intermediate-risk AML undergoing auto-HSCT are evaluated.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) appears to be an efficient tool to cure standard-risk acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in first CR (CR1) but the choice between BU-based or TBI-based conditioning regimens still remains controversial. In this study, the safety and efficacy of BUCY and TBICY myeloablative conditioning regimens in patients undergoing allo-HSCT for ALL in CR1 are evaluated.
The primary objective for this study is to assess the safety and tolerability as well as preliminary efficacy of venetoclax in combination with cobimetinib, and venetoclax in combination with idasanutlin in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R) AML who are not eligible for cytotoxic therapy.
Quizartinib is an experimental drug. It is not approved for regular use. It can only be used in medical research. Adults might be able to join this study after bone marrow tests show they have a certain kind of blood cancer (FLT3-ITD AML). Participants will have an equal chance of receiving quizartinib or placebo along with their chemotherapy.
