Filter by:The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to determine if low doses of gentle chemotherapy after bone marrow transplant may prevent relapse and promote an increase in survival and decrease in side effects in participants with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. The main question it aims to answer is whether or not providing a new, gentler way of administering chemotherapy will help control leftover cancer with minimal side effects. This treatment involves decitabine and venetoclax. Participants will receive standard post-transplant care. Participants will be administered decitabine once per week with normal transplant follow up visits, and then will take a venetoclax pill about 6 to 8 hours later. Participants will meet their study team at the beginning, midway, and at the end of the trial to receive bone marrow testing. Participants will receive treatment until either one year of therapy, relapse, or recurrent dose limiting toxicity (DLT) despite dose reduction.
The goal of this observational study is to measure and try to reduce leakage in precision medicine care in the community cancer clinic. The goal of precision medicine is to identify the best possible therapy the the patient based on the biology of the tumor. Leakage is defined as a failure or inefficiency of the system that leads to dropped or lost testing, reporting or action (including drug selection). It has been observed that there are healthcare disparities in the community setting compared to academic medical centers, particularly in the use of precision medicine. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - How much leakage occurs in the use of precision medicine in the community setting? - Can we reduce leakage by providing access to better tools and services typically found in the academic medical centers? Participants will not be directly impacted and will receive standard of care. Measurements will be made of how often physicians select the appropriate test for patients, and how often they select the most appropriate therapy for their patients before and after the implementation of tools created to reduce leakage. We hope to reduce leakage in with the use of advanced tools and services, and use this study as a model to improve healthcare in the community cancer setting.
The objective of this project is to conduct a pilot randomized trial to assess the preliminary efficacy of a telehealth-delivered Serious Illness Care Program on healthcare communication, patient anxiety and distress, as well as completion of advance directives (specifically MOLST and healthcare proxy forms) for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and similar myeloid malignancies.
