Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and side effects of the vorinostat, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone investigational combination.
Poor mobilization of hematopoietic progenitors needed to support autologous transplantation is a serious clinical problem. We are investigating the role of plerixafor administered in an at risk population to augment successful stem cell collection. OBJECTIVES To determine if plerixafor when administered on the day prior to planned autologous collection on first mobilization attempt in those with a peripheral blood CD34 ≤ 10X106/L will: - increase the number of patients successfully collected in one day - increase the number of patients successfully mobilized on first collection attempt - is cost neutral within a Canadian setting
The purpose of this study is to monitor such factors as a past history, a previous history of drug use, the degree of response to initial treatment, the frequency of previous therapies, age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, which is used by doctors and researchers to assess how a patient's disease is progressing, assess how the disease affects the daily living abilities of the patient, and determine appropriate treatment and prognosis, before the bortezomib re-treatment, the concomitant drugs that are used for re-treatment and the pattern of treatment in patients with multiple myeloma who were re-treated with injectable bortezomib.
The purpose of this study is to measure the markers related to bone metabolism before and after the use of bortezomib injection in patients with multiple myeloma and to evaluate the effect bortezomib injection has on bone disease.
This is a first in human study which will assess the safety and tolerability of a monoclonal antibody against ICAM-1 in patients with Multiple Myeloma. The tumour response rate will also be measured.
Panobinostat (LBH589) is a highly potent pan-deacetylase inhibitor (pan-DACi), inclusive of HDAC6, which disrupts aggresome function, promotes accumulation of cytotoxic misfolded protein aggregates and triggers myeloma cell death. Combination of pan-DAC and protease inhibition by co-treatment with panobinostat (PAN) and bortezomib (BTZ) has demonstrated synergistic cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo in pre-clinical experiments. Furthermore, clinical experience in advanced multiple myeloma (MM) patients treated by oral panobinostat and i.v bortezomib ± dexamethasone showed very encouraging results for efficacy and manageable toxicity profile. Given the medical need for improved treatment strategies for patients with previously treated and relapsed MM, the purpose of this prospective, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group Phase III study is to compare the results in progression-free survival of 2 combination therapies, panobinostat with bortezomib and dexamethasone or placebo with bortezomib and dexamethasone, in patients with previously treated MM whose disease has recurred or progressed.
This observational study will observe the degree of the quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma before and after bortezomib administration by using EORTC-QLQ C30 (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core30) and EQ-5D (EuroQol-5 Dimensions). Both tools are validated research instruments used to measure the quality of life in cancer patients and consequently will provide fundamental data regarding the quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma by analyzing factors that affect the quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of LEN/low-dose DEX and continuous low-dose CY administered orally compared to LEN in combination with low-dose DEX and single CY doses IV in patients with relapsed MM.
A phase II study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and hematopoietic stem cell mobilization of TG-0054 in patients with multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether adults with hematologic malignancies on active systemic therapy or shortly after bone marrow transplantation need one or two doses of adjuvanted vaccine to achieve best possible rates of protection. An additional research question is whether baseline biomarkers of the cellular and humoral immune systems are associated with an antibody response to vaccination.
