Filter by:Objectives: Invasive infections are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients treated for hematological malignancies. Blood cultures are often negative in neutropenic patients because of low-burden of organisms, previous antibiotic therapy or non-infectious reason of fever. More rapid, accurate and sensitive diagnostic tools are needed. Hypothesis: Multiplex real-time PCR may detect microbial DNA in neutropenic patients before febrile episode. To investigate this hypothesis, EDTA-blood was routinely collected for multiplex PCR at admission and 3x/week thereafter until discharge or recovery from neutropenia
Primary Objective: - To assess effectiveness of prophylactic treatment of hematological complications (grade ≥ 3 neutropenia) resulting from cabazitaxel treatment for 21 days after treatment initiation. Secondary Objectives: - PSA response rate; - Descriptive assessment of CTC (circulating Tumor Cells); - Rates of grade ≥ 3 neutropenia and febrile neutropenia and grade ≥3 diarrhea over the treatment period; - Description of the Health Quality of Life of the patients; - Incidence of adverse events.
This is a randomized open label dose finding study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of F-627 on women with Stage I-IV breast cancer receiving chemotherapy treatment.
Background: - Several types of blood cancer are associated with poor outcomes including high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Many people with MDS, CMML, and AML are not candidates for standard treatments. New types of treatment are needed for these cancers. - Clofarabine and lenalidomide are anticancer drugs. The first damages cancer cells in the body. The second can alter blood supply to abnormal cells or affect how the immune system attacks these cells. These drugs have been previously tested as treatments for MDS and leukemia. However, they have not been tried as a combination for MDS, CMML, and AML. Researchers want to see if these drugs are safe and effective for these types of cancer. Objectives: - To test the safety and effectiveness of clofarabine and lenalidomide for people with high-risk MDS, CMML, and AML. Eligibility: - Individuals at least 18 years of age who have high-risk MDS, CMML, and AML. - Participants must not be candidates for standard treatments. Design: - Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and bone marrow samples will be collected. - Participants will have 5 days of treatment with clofarabine. It will be given through a vein during an inpatient hospital stay. If there are no serious side effects after the infusion, participants will continue treatment as outpatients. - After 28 days, participants will have a bone marrow biopsy to check their response to treatment. - After the biopsy, participants will start lenalidomide treatment. Half of the participants will take the drug for 28 days (one treatment cycle). The other half will take it for 56 days (two cycles). More blood tests and biopsies will be used to monitor treatment. - If there are no serious side effects and the disease does not become worse, participants may keep taking lenalidomide at lower doses for up to 12 more cycles.
Neutropenia is one of the most frequent adverse effects of chemotherapy, and the main factor to limit the dosage and the continuation of chemotherapy. A newly pegylated rhG-CSF was independently developed by JIANGSU HENGRUI Medicine Co., Ltd, China. Phase 1a, 1b and phase 2 trials have shown that pegylated rhG-CSF has decreased renal clearance, increased plasma half-life, and prolonged efficacy in compare with rhG-CSF. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of pegylated rhG-CSF in preventing neutropenia following chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.
Clinical trial intended to reduce the antibiotic therapy duration in "in-hospital" patients with haematological diseases who develop fever and low white blood cell count (neutropenia).
The main aim of the study is to assess the safety of Nivestim® treatment in patients treated with neutropenia-inducing chemotherapy for a malignant disease, solid tumor or a malignant hemopathy.
BCD-017-2 is an open-label randomized phase II clinical study to compare the incidence of CTCAE grade 3/4 neutropenia after a single administration of recombinant human pegylated filgrastim empegfilgrastim (Extimia®) at a dose of 3 or 6 mg versus daily administration of filgrastim at a dose of 5 μg/kg/day for neutropenia prophylaxis in breast cancer patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy.
This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, melphalan, and low-dose total-body irradiation (TBI) followed by donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant (PBSCT) works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving chemotherapy drugs such as fludarabine phosphate and melphalan, and low-dose TBI before a donor PBSCT helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from the donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cell from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening
The study will assess the efficacy of EP2006 compared to Filgrastim with respect to the mean duration of severe neutropenia during treatment with myelosuppressive chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.
