Filter by:The classic myeloproliferative neoplasias (MNP), including polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), primary myelofibrosis (PMF) or secondary to PV or ET, are among the most frequent of malignant hemopathies, with overall prevalence estimated at around 10,000 patients followed in France. Due to the median age of patients around 65, the frequency of cardiovascular complications of these thrombogenic diseases and the impact of cytoreductive treatments on immune cells, these patients are considered to be at risk of developing forms severe of COVID-19. This study will assess the impact of MNPs on the risk of developing a severe form of COVID-19, identify new risk factors linked to the disease as well as the impact of treatments for MNPs according to their pharmacological class.
The presence of IDH mutation is associated with worse survival in patients with myelofibrosis. Moreover IDH mutations are among the most frequently encountered events in MPNs that have progressed to acute myeloid leukemia. Ruxolitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, and enasidenib an IDH2 inhibitor are effective and tolerable treatments for patients with myelofibrosis (MF) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), respectively. The study team hypothesize that the combination of these agents in patients with MPN with an IDH2 mutation will improve the overall clinical response to therapy.
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are blood disorders that occur when the body makes too many white or red blood cells, or platelets. This overproduction of blood cells in the bone marrow can create problems for blood flow and lead to various symptoms. One of the major problems is the formation of blood clots. These may form in the veins of a patient's legs or arms where they cause leg or arm pain, swelling or difficulty walking. These clots may travel to the lung and then cause chest pain, shortness of breath and sometimes death. Blood clots can also lead to poor or no blood flow to one's heart, brain, or other organs, causing damages that cannot be easily or ever repaired, such as stroke or heart attack. Patients diagnosed with certain types of MPN are associated with a higher risk of developing blood clots and related complications. For this reason, MPN patients are usually treated with low-dose aspirin, a common drug used for blood clot prevention, on long-term basis to prevent the formation of blood clots and other complications. However, recent studies also show that the risk of blood clots remains elevated in MPN patients treated with aspirin, and there may not be improvement or reduction in fatal or other events that are associated with blood clots. In addition, since this medical condition is rare, so there's a lack of studies done with high quality results to help physicians decide the best treatment plan for these patients. The study drug, apixaban, is a new type of orally-taken blood thinner that has been shown to be effective and safe for prevention and treatment of blood clots in various patient populations. The investigators will evaluate whether apixaban is safer and/or better at preventing blood clots and other complications in MPN patients compared to aspirin.
Patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are predisposed to have an increased thrombotic and hemorrhagic risk and, in this context, the use of newly approved direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) may have improved bleeding risk compared to warfarin use. However, the published experience is very limited and does not allow any conclusion. In the cohort of patients with MPN and venous thromboembolism (VTE) of European Leukemia-net, only 3.3% of patients had been treated with DOACs. Similarly, in a recent publication of a series of 760 patients with single-center MPN, only 25 (3.3%) were treated with a DOAC (13 for atrial fibrillation and 12 for thrombotic events). While it is known that the risk of thrombotic recurrence and haemorrhagic event during warfarin treatment is about 30% at 5 years from the first event, the actual risk of such events in MPN patients is not known. The aim of the present study is therefore to obtain information on patients with MPN treated with DOAC for atrial fibrillation (AF) and VTE. This is an international multi-center retrospective survey aimed at describing the efficacy / safety of DOAC in the prevention of: - cardioembolic stroke in patients with MPN with AF - recurrent thrombosis in patients with MPN with VTE - major bleeding in all patients with MPN. The results will allow to design future prospective studies that evaluate the benefit / risk profile of DOAC compared to warfarin in these pathologies characterized by high risk of thrombosis and, in some subgroups, of bleeding.
Thrombosis is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). However, the pathogenesis of thrombosis in MPN is still largely elusive. Neutrophils can release their decondensed chromatin as a network of extracellular fibers named NET for "neutrophils extracellular trap". NETs are known to be procoagulant. Our main objective is to quantify NETs biomarkers expression in MPN patients and define if they could be used as prognostic factors in the outcome of thrombosis in these patients.
The Fondazione per la Ricerca Ospedale di Bergamo (FROM) decided to propose and promote the completion of ERNEST registry: the aim of the project is to obtain up-to-date estimates of clinical outcome of these patients in primary and secondary Myelofibrosis that have been included in the 'original' ERNEST study. The last was conducted between 2012 and beginning of 2015 including 1292 patients with Myelofibrosis, but it was interrupted in 2015 because of bankruptcy of the previous sponsor.
This phase II trial studies the side effects of salsalate when added to venetoclax and decitabine or azacitidine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplasia/myeloproliferative disease that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as salsalate, venetoclax, decitabine, and azacitidine work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
A phase I-II study in patients with mutated MPN by vaccinating with PD-L1 and Aginase1 peptides with Montanide ISA-51 as adjuvant, to monitor the immunological response to vaccination and subsequently safety, toxicity and clinical effect.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of PLX51107 and how well it works with azacitidine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. PLX51107 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving PLX51107 and azacitidine may work better than azacitidine alone in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
This is a prospective, multicenter observational study to collect clinically annotated biospecimens in order to assess the correlation between ex vivo data generated by the Notable assay platform and clinical outcome.
