Filter by:This phase II trial studies reduced-intensity conditioning before donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies. Giving low-doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) before the transplant may help increase this effect.
This study uses a drug called dasatinib to produce an anti-cancer effect called large granular lymphocyte cellular expansion. Large granular lymphocytes are blood cells known as natural killer cells that remove cancer cells. Researchers think that dasatinib may cause large granular lymphocyte expansion to happen in patients who have received a blood stem cell transplant (SCT) between 3 to 15 months after the SCT. In this research study, researchers want to find how well dasatinib can be tolerated, the best dose to take of dasatinib and how to estimate how often large granular lymphocytic cellular expansion happens at the best dose of dasatinib.
This study of AMG 900 will be conducted in two parts: dose escalation and dose expansion. The dose escalation part of the study is aimed at evaluating the safety, tolerability and PK (pharmacokinetics) of oral AMG 900 in subjects with acute myeloid leukemia. Up to 93 subjects may be enrolled in dose escalation. The dose expansion part of the study will consist of 20 subjects with acute myeloid leukemia. The dose of AMG 900 will be dependent upon data from the dose escalation part of the study.
The most reliable prognostic marker of acute myeloid leukemia(AML) is cytogenetics by karyotyping. According to cytogenetic results, the patients with AML are classified as better, intermediate and poor prognosis groups. The normal karyotype AML was reported in about 50% of all AML and classified as intermediate risk group. However, the patients with normal karyotype AML showed various prognosis. Therefore, the further studies about subgroup analysis of normal karyotype AML are needed. Recently, the understandings of human genome polypmorphism using SNP array have been accumulated. However, the advanced researches for clinical application are not enough. The study design is a retrospective and single-center study. The patients with normal karyotyping AML who were diagnosed from 1994 to 2008 at Samsung Medical Center (South Korea) will be enrolled. The stored bone marrow samples of enrolled patients are used for genome wide scanning by SNP array. The purpose of present study is to develop predictive pharmacogenemic biomarkers model associated wit clinical outcomes including efficacy and toxicity in patients with AML with normal karyotype treated with chemotherapy using pharmacogenetic SNP array. And secondly, to develop enrichment clinical trial based on predictive pharmacogenomic model.
Core binding factor (CBF) positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consist of 15% of patients in overall AML, expected to harbor a favorable prognosis. However, around a half of cases relapses. Accordingly, more sophisticated classification in CBF positive AMLs is essential to achieve further improvement in the treatment outcome. The current study is designed to evaluate CBF positive AML patients with genome-wide SNP array and KIT mutation study in CBF positive AML patients diagnosed at the Samsung Medical Center and Hwasun Chonnam National University Hospital, Korea between 1994 and 2008. 1. Construction of the CBF positive AML patient cohort: clinical database establishment (including treatment outcomes and prognosis) and extraction/storage of tumor cell DNAs from marrow samples, then processing of Affymetrix SNP array 6.0. 2. Construction of prognostic predictive model using pharmacogenomics with the results of genotypes and copy number variations (CNVs). 3. Detection of hidden microscopic cytogenetic lesions with SNP array technique, and correlation with clinical outcomes in CBF positive AML. 4. Detection of KIT, FLT3/ITD, and NPM1 gene mutation and its correlation with clinical outcomes in CBF positive AML. The current study attempts to analyze genetic data of core binding factor (CBF) positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) using genome wide SNP array technique with tumor DNAs collected at the time of diagnosis. 1. To detect microcytogenetic lesions and will analyze its prognostic significance 2. To analyze genome-wide genotypes and copy number variations (CNVs) using pharmacogenetic approach and will construct a prognostic predictive model 3. To detect KIT, FLT3/ITD and NPM1 mutation and evaluate its prognostic significance. The present study will establish individualized therapy for CBF positive AML, will provide a basis for molecular marker guided clinical trial in CBF positive AML.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the administration of a donor lymphocyte preparation depleted of functional host alloreactive T-cells (ATIR) after a T-cell depleted stem cell transplant from a related, haploidentical donor enhances survival by improving the immune effect against infections while preventing graft-versus-host disease .
The purpose of this study is to determine if IMC-EB10 is safe for participants with leukemia, and also to determine the best dose of IMC-EB10 to give to participants.
The primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of AVE9633 and to characterize the dose limiting toxicity(ies). Secondary objectives are to determine the anti-leukemia activity, the global safety and the PK profile.
The purpose of this study is to show that a therapeutic platelet transfusion strategy (i.e. platelet transfusion only in case of bleeding) needs minimally a quarter less of transfusions compared to the standard prophylactic transfusion strategy (i.e. platelet transfusion without any sign of bleeding when the platelet count is below 10.000/µL). With the experimental transfusion strategy transfusions could be safely reduced when the study hypothesis can be proven. This is the first prospective randomized study on this topic.
The purpose of this study is to assess safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of AZD1152 and to assess effect of AZD1152 on the rate of complete remission in patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia.
