Filter by:The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of high versus low intensity therapy options in patients with refractory forms and early relapses of acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) who are scheduled for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT).
A phase 2, interventional, randomized unblinded study will be conducted in newly diagnosed CP CML patients, to investigate the efficacy and the safety of asciminib at a dose of 80 mg QD as single agent (arm A) or 40 mg BID in combination with nilotinib 300 mg BID (arm B). All patients in both arm A and arm B will be treated for a minimum of 2 years (core phase). If they will have achieved a DMR (MR4), or if it will be in the interest of the patient, the treatment will be continued. During the consolidation phase (2 years) asciminib will be continued at the same dose in both arms; in the combination arm the nilotinib dose will be reduced to 300 mg daily. The patients maintaining a stable MR4 up to the end of the fourth year will discontinue the treatment (TFR phase). The rate of TFR at 5 year (1 year after discontinuation) will be evaluated.
Patients with hematologic malignancies requiring intensive chemotherapy are at risk for life-threatening complications. Organ failure may appear rapidly and delay in initiating life-sustaining interventions may result in increased mortality. This encourages great alertness although not all patients require close monitoring. It is therefore critical to identify which patients are the most at risk for clinical deterioration to consider increased surveillance in these patients. The benefit of early intensive care unit (ICU) admission, as soon as the first signs of organ dysfunction appear, must also be clarified. Such an intervention could increase survival of patients by close monitoring and early initiation of organ-specific interventions but could also be responsible for anxiety and increased use of ICU resources. Many teams have analyzed the impact of early warning systems (EWS) including vital signs to detect organ dysfunction early on. It has been shown that these EWS could positively impact survival in many medical fields (pre-hospital, medicine or surgery departments). A few retrospective studies have explored the impact of EWS in hematology, with overall good prediction for ICU admission and mortality. Until now, it has however not been formally demonstrated that early ICU admission, as soon as the first signs of organ dysfunction appear, could benefit patients with hematologic malignancies. A randomized controlled trial studying the impact of early intervention would clarify the role of such a strategy. In this study, the investigators will prospectively evaluate the implementation of the National Early Warning Score (NEWS), with systematic referral to the ICU in high-score patients, to improve the survival of patients receiving intensive chemotherapy in ten academic centers. This score is one of the most performant and most frequently used to predict organ failure. Its calculation only requires vital signs such as respiratory rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, need for oxygen therapy, body temperature, arterial pressure, heart rate, and level of consciousness. The investigators will therefore study the impact of ICU admission in patients with high NEWS in a randomized, controlled trial. A cluster randomization is planned in which the centers will be randomized between usual care (control group) and interventional care with transfer to the ICU in the event of a NEWS score ≥7 (interventional group). Each parameter used to calculate the NEWS will be collected at least three times a day by the attending nurse.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine safety, feasibility, and the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of CD22 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy (CART) cells when administered 28 to 42 days after an infusion of a commercial CAR called Tisagenlecleucel, to children and young adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell leukemia.
To find the recommended doses of lisaftoclax and olverembatinib that can be given in combination with decitabine to participants with advanced CML and Ph+ AML.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of eltanexor in combination with venetoclax for the treatment of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Eltanexor works by trapping "tumor suppressing proteins" within the cell, thus causing the cancer cells to die or stop growing. 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. Giving eltanexor together with venetoclax may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory MDS or AML.
This research is being done to investigate the safety and effectiveness of Darzalex Faspro (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj) (a monoclonal antibody that targets plasma cells that make antibodies) and whether it can lower donor specific antibodies (DSA) levels to low enough levels to permit patients to proceed with allogeneic peripheral blood transplant (alloBMT). Those being asked to participate have high DSA levels that puts those being asked to participate at high risk of rejecting the available donor's blood stem cells and making those being asked to participate ineligible to receive a stem cell transplant.
To find the highest safe dose of ziftomenib that can be combined with venetoclax and azacitidine in pediatric participants with acute leukemia that has certain types of genetic mutations (changes).
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of 16-weeks of exercise training, as measured by aerobic capacity, strength and physical function, and body composition, in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). DESIGN: Subjects will have confirmed treatment naïve CLL. Subjects will be assigned to either a 16-week control group (no supervised exercise) or an intervention group of Resistance Training (REx). Before and after the 16-week protocol, patients will undergo several tests including: 1) a maximal cycle ergometer test, 2) Body Composition, 3) Muscle strength, 4) physical activity levels, 5) blood measures (e.g. immune and inflammatory functions). DATA ANALYSES & SAFETY ISSUES: For outcomes, group change differences from baseline to 16-weeks will be compared with ANCOVA. Resistance training is a very safe exercise modality already studied in other cancer patients. The regular use of vigorous-intensity exercise has been used extensively in exercise training. It will always be respected for each subject's safety tolerance while challenging. HYPOTHESIS: The investigators hypothesize that the protocol will be feasible exercise interventions for people with CLL and will improve health and fitness markers.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VA combined with HAAG in the induction treatment of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
