Filter by:BKT-140 drug substance is a highly selective chemokine receptor (CXCR4) antagonist, which is developed by Biokine as a novel therapy for Multiple Myeloma (MM, a type of blood cancer). The unique combination of activities of BKT140, i.e., the induction of the exit of blood cells such as stem cells and mature cells from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood, coupled with specific induction of MM cell death by BKT-140, represents a novel therapeutic strategy against MM.
Study for the outcome and safety of individualized busulfan dosing with bortezomib for patients preparing for a second stem cell transplant to treat multiple myeloma.
This phase II trial studies autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant followed by donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with high-risk Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Autologous stem cell transplantation uses the patient's stem cells and does not cause graft versus host disease (GVHD) and has a very low risk of death, while minimizing the number of cancer cells. Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant uses stem cells from the patient or a donor and may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy. These donated stem cells may help destroy cancer cells. Bone marrow transplant known as a nonmyeloablative transplant uses stem cells from a haploidentical family donor. Autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant followed by donor bone marrow transplant may work better in treating patients with high-risk Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to create a prospective database of patients with myeloma affecting the spine. This database will define changes in health-related quality of life over time, and the effect of incident fractures and their treatment on specific measures of pain, physical function, pulmonary function, and future fractures. In 2008, the UCSF Myeloma Service was actively caring for 347 patients with myeloma, of which 150 patients had lytic lesions on radiographs, and 100 had a known vertebral fracture. This population, as well as any new myeloma patients, will serve as the source of the study population.
After the KFDA (Korea Food and Drug Administration) approval of a new drug, an annual report of the drug's safety and efficacy data must be reported to the Health Authority in 6 years. In this Observational study, we will investigate the basic demographic, medical history, concomitant drug use, as well as dosing information of multiple myeloma patients using bortezomib (Velcade).
This Phase I/IIa clinical study is to test safety and anti-tumor activity of BT062 to define the best dose in treating patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma with multiple doses of BT062.
Development of new treatments for diseases such as multiple myeloma is a focus for research. The research being conducted is on treatment called Anti-KIR, which activates the body's own cells to kill tumor cells. This is different from many other treatments where chemicals are given to kill tumor cells.The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical activity of two different dose regimens (0.2 mg/kg, leading to an intermittent saturation of NK receptors and 2mg/kg leading to a sustained saturation of NK receptors) of IPH2101 administered as a single agent in multiple myeloma patients who achieved, after the completion of any first line treatment, including conventional or high dose chemotherapies, a stable partial or very good partial response (PR or VGPR).
Rationale: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF and plerixafor helps stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Purpose: This phase II trial is studying how well plerixafor works in patients with multiple myeloma previously treated with lenalidomide and planning to undergo autologous stem cell transplant.
The purpose of this study is to look at whether the combination of lower-dose chemotherapy with two chemotherapy (anti-cancer) drugs, called busulfan and melphalan, and an antibody medication called alemtuzumab (Campath®), can prevent rejection of donor blood stem cells so that those cells take hold and build a healthy new blood cell factory after transplant. The study will also look at the safety of the combination of drugs and of the transplant of peripheral blood stem cells from a healthy relative or an unrelated donor.
For cancer cells to grow, they need to have nutrients supplied to them through blood vessels. The study drug, ACE-041, is designed to work by blocking the growth of those blood vessels and preventing cancer cells from growing. The purpose of this study is to establish safe dose levels of ACE-041 in patients with advanced solid tumors or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma following multiple dose administration. This study will also evaluate if ACE-041 has an effect on tumors.
