Filter by:The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if NOV-002 can help to restore bone marrow and blood levels in patients who have MDS. The safety of this drug will also be studied.
For MDS patients who have not responded to or have progressed after an initial response to DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTI) and are not stem cell transplant candidates, therapeutic options are limited. Participation in clinical trials such as this one may be considered. The specific objectives of this trial are to find out which dose of ON 01910.Na can be safety given to MDS patients and then find out if this dose of drug has any beneficial effects on the patients' disease. ON 01910.Na is a new, experimental drug; the reason for doing this trial is based on the anti-cancer activity of ON 01910.Na that has been observed in laboratory experiments and in early clinical trials.
This is a double blind, placebo controlled clinical trial, where patients with an advanced form of blood cancer are treated with haploidentical allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplant after which they are randomised to receive either placebo or a keratinocyte growth factor (Palifermin or Kepivance®). The function of Kepivance® is to stimulate the growth of epithelial cells. This drug has also been suggested to have an ability to help improve the reconstitution, or development, of the immune system after the transplantation. The hypothesis is that the patients T-cell dependent humoral immune response to recall antigen (PrevenarTM) will be higher in in palifermin treated patients than in the placebo control group
The purpose of this research study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, Erlotinib has on Myelodysplastic syndrome. Myelodysplastic syndrome is a group of blood diseases where the bone marrow (spongy space in long bones which is the factory for blood cell production) does not make enough blood cells and therefore there is a lack of healthy blood cells in the body. This can result in anemia, risk for infection and/or bleeding..
To determine the clinical effects of coenzyme Q10 and Curcumin in improving the cytopenias of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. we propose to explore the efficacy of the natural compounds curcumin and CoQ10 in MDS because these two agents possess many of the effects that are desirable in MDS.
Multi-institutional randomized phase III trial of a non-myeloablative preparative regimen with fludarabine and busulfex with or without anti-lymphocyte antibodies (monoclonal humanized Campath-1H administered s.c. or polyclonal rabbit anti-T lymphocyte antibodies (ATG), combined with low dose and short course cyclosporine A (CSA) and methotrexate (MTX) as the sole agent for prevention of graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) for patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation from an HLA compatible donor.
