Filter by:Patients with acute myeloid leukemia who experience a relapse after at least one prior regimen may be enrolled in this trial. In addition, acute myeloid leukemia patients who are in complete remission with high risk to relapse may be eligible for this trial. The trial will examine whether monotherapy with BI 836858 is safe and tolerable at escalating dose levels.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well donor umbilical cord blood transplant with or without ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's cells. When the healthy stem cells and ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It is not yet known whether giving donor umbilical cord blood transplant plus ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells is more effective than giving a donor umbilical cord blood transplant alone.
This clinical trial studies potential genetic markers which might be used to predict which patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes respond to decitabine. This study will contribute to the efforts to find effective and less toxic therapies to provide durable remissions in a significant proportion of elderly AML patients.
Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Randomized Phase 2 Study evaluating the efficacy of lirilumab (IPH2102/BMS-986015) as Maintenance Treatment administered in elderly patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in first complete remission
This multi-center, open-label, dose-finding study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics as well as the preliminary efficacy of venetoclax (GDC-0199; ABT-199) administered in combination with obinutuzumab to participants with relapsed/refractory or previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The study is comprised of two stages for each participant population: a dose-finding stage and a safety-expansion stage. The dose-finding stage will explore multiple doses of venetoclax to be used in combination with a fixed dose of obinutuzumab. The dose-finding stage will also explore two schedules for drug administration, Schedule A (venetoclax introduced before obinutuzumab) and Schedule B (venetoclax introduced after obinutuzumab).
This clinical study will provide the study specimens (samples of bone marrow and blood) and the clinical data for a pan-Canadian collaborative research project developed by the MDS/AML Research Consortium. The goal of this project involves the evaluation and potential validation of five novel prognostic tests for myelodysplasia (MDS) and/or acute myeloid leukemia (AML), as well as an analysis of health economic and socio-ethical implications related to the potential introduction of these tests into the clinical setting. The over-arching goal is to improve the outcomes of patients with MDS and AML. The primary hypothesis is that one or more of the laboratory tests being evaluated in conjunction with this study, either alone or in combination with other laboratory tests (either established or under investigation in this project), will have statistically significant prognostic value either alone or in combination with established clinical risk factors. The clinical study will involve the enrollment of 200 adults with AML and 200 adults with MDS over a 2.5 year period. Participants will be followed on study for two years. Bone marrow and blood specimens will be collected at diagnosis and at other time points as required for the development of the five laboratory tests. Participants will be assigned to treatment according to local institutional practice and will be followed for up to 2 years. Health economic and quality of life questionnaires will be administered at key time points. Data will be collected regarding participant characteristics, diagnosis, disease features, treatment and clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safe dose of EPZ-5676, to evaluate the safety of EPZ-5676 in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies, and to conduct a preliminary assessment of the anti-leukemia activity of EPZ-5676 in patients with acute leukemias bearing rearrangements of the MLL gene. Currently this study is in the MLL-r restricted/expansion phase and is only enrolling patients with rearrangements involving the MLL gene, including 11q23 or partial tandem duplications (PTD).
Analyze the results of conditioning with once-daily dose intravenous busulfan and fludarabine in patients undergoing HLA identical sibling Allogeneic HSCT for myeloid malignancies.
This is a Phase 1b, open-label, multicenter study evaluating the safety and tolerability of ABT-199 in combination with rituximab in up to 50 subjects with Relapsed Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma. The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety profile, to determine the maximum tolerated dose and establish the Recommended Phase Two Dose of ABT-199 when administered in combination with rituximab. The dose escalation portion of the study will include approximately 30 subjects. Once the recommended phase two dose and schedule have been determined, up to 20 additional subjects will be enrolled in an expanded safety portion of the study. Subjects who meet criteria for CR, CRi, or MRD-negative PR during the study may discontinue ABT 199. If disease progression occurs, as defined by iwCLL NCI/WG criteria for tumor response, or MRD progression, subjects may re-initiate ABT-199.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the addition of blood stem cells from a close family member, when added to umbilical cord blood will make the transplant safer.
