Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine whether the addition of Elotuzumab to Bortezomib/ Dexamethasone will prolong the time before myeloma worsens [progression free survival (PFS)].
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the MEK inhibitor and the AKT inhibitor can be given in combination and if the combination is effective treatment for patients with solid tumors, including breast cancer and endometrial cancer, and for patients with multiple myeloma.
The purpose of this study is to better understand what effects Bortezomib, a drug used for multiple myeloma therapy, has on the immune system.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to establish the maximum tolerated dose of JNJ-26481585 combined with VELCADE and dexamethasone.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether this disease will get better if treated with higher doses of Lenalidomide even if the disease returns while taking low doses of Lenalidomide. In patients with multiple myeloma treated with Lenalidomide maintenance, the disease will return. However, the physician currently does not know if the disease would respond to treatment with higher doses of Lenalidomide. This is very important for patients with multiple myeloma because the number of drugs available to treat the disease are limited. It is important to know if Lenalidomide remains still effective and if it can still be used in this situation. This study will try to find out what effects, good and/or bad higher doses of Lenalidomide has on the patient and the disease after it has returned.
The aim of the current study is to improve the outcome of patients with hematologic malignancies (in a phase I trial) and more specifically multiple myeloma (in a phase II trial) by 2 interventions: reduce the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and improve the efficacy of the procedure decreasing the risk of relapses after transplant. Currently, the standard approach used in most centers to prevent graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic transplantation is based on the combination of a calcineurin inhibitor (cyclosporine or tacrolimus) plus a short course of methotrexate. Unfortunately, this strategy is far from ideal, since the risk of acute GVHD is in the range of 30-40% among patients receiving a matched related donor transplantation and even higher among patients receiving transplantation from an unrelated donor while the incidence of chronic GVHD is 60-70% among patients receiving peripheral blood progenitor cells from either a related or unrelated donor. As far as the patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is concerned, although the development of new drugs has markedly changed the outcome and management of these patients, allogeneic transplantation so far appears to be the only curative option, especially among those patients relapsing after first line treatment. Nevertheless, still new strategies within the allogeneic transplant setting are needed to improve its results. Relapses may occur either extramedullary (very common in this setting) or systemic. In order to reduce the risk of systemic relapses the investigators will use maintenance therapy with Lenalidomide (Len) which, together with bortezomib (Bz) should contribute to eradicate minimal residual disease (MRD). In case the patient do not obtain complete remission or near complete remission after transplant, in addition to the maintenance therapy, the investigators will use four intensification cycles with VRD (Bz-Len-Dexamethasone). In summary, the goal is to optimize the efficacy of allogeneic transplantation by two interventions: one focused on reducing the risk of relapse and the other on reducing the incidence of GVHD.
This international, prospective, observational, open-label, pharmaco-epidemiologic study observes cancer patients at risk for chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia (FN) who are receiving filgrastim biosimilar (EP2006) for primary or secondary FN prophylaxis to better describe the patient population at risk for FN and treated prophylactically in physician's best clinical judgement with filgrastim biosimilar (EP2006), to describe prophylaxis patterns involving filgrastim biosimilar (EP2006), and to evaluate hematology levels and variability in hematological outcomes, impact on chemotherapy delivery, radiotherapy, surgery, and mortality. Additionally the study aims to identify patient cohorts who are vulnerable to poor response to FN prophylaxis and experience break-through episodes of FN, understand the differences between prophylaxis responders and non-responders, and describe the degree to which prophylaxis of FN is in congruence with guideline recommendations.
This Phase II study is to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Mobilization of TG-0054 alone or in combination with G-CSF in Patients with Multiple Myeloma, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or Hodgkin Disease.
The purpose of this trial is to characterize the safety and toxicity of DKN-01 by determining a maximum-tolerated dose and associated dose limiting toxicity. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic response in patients with cancer. To characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters of DKN-01 in cancer patients who are intolerant to standard/approved therapies.
The primary purpose of this dose escalation study is to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of LGH447 as a single agent when administered orally once daily to adult patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM).
