Filter by:GATLA 8-AML´07 trial is an multicenter phase III dose-optimization trial for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemias in children and adolescents. Patients are treated with a combination of intensive chemotherapy in combination with intrathecal-injection by CNS and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The patients are stratified in a standard-group (SR) and a high risk-group (HR). SR was defined as FAB (French-American-British) M1/M2 with Auer rods; FAB M4eo or favorable cytogenetics [t(8;21)/AML1-ETO or inv(16) or t(16;16) and/or CBFB/MYH11)]; bone marrow blasts ≤5% on day 15. HR was defined as all others. SR patients were reclassified to the HR group if FLT3-ITD positive. Based on the experience of the BFM group, it was decided to randomly evaluate whether the six-drug conventional consolidation stage can be replaced with the use of a consolidation based by block therapy on drugs of proven efficacy in AML with the aim of reducing residual disease, and the toxicity of this stage. Patients are randomized once the double induction is completed into those who will receive the conventional consolidation phase and those who will receive consolidation with the combination of high doses cytarabine and two different anthracyclines sequentially.
This is a multicenter, single arm, prospective, intervention trial. Since cladribine can enhance the biological activity and self-protection of cytarabine, giving cladribine and cytarabine together may kill more cancer cells. 10 centers from South China Childhood Leukaemia Collaborative Group carry out the SCCLG-M5-2022 regimen including two courses of CLAG(cladribine, darubicin and cytarabine) in the induction period for the treatment of newly dignosed acute monocytic leukemia (M5). The targeted drugs sorafenib is used for FLT3 positive acute monocytic leukemia to inhibit the serine / threonine kinase activity of FLT3.
PARC is an international phase I/II trial evaluating the safety and activity of pegylated recombinant human arginase (BCT-100) in children and young people with relapsed/refractory leukaemia, neuroblastoma, sarcoma and high grade gliomas (brain cancers). Currently the outcomes for these patients are poor and the therapeutic options are limited with a significant toxicity burden. Therefore new treatments which work in different ways to standard chemotherapy are urgently needed. Research has shown that arginine (a nutrient) is important in the survival of cancer cells. BCT-100 is a drug which can deplete arginine levels and starve cancer cells - a completely new approach. BCT-100 has been tested in adults and shown to be active with almost no side-effects. This trial will test whether this dose of BCT-100 is also safe and active in children with relapsed/refractory leukaemia, neuroblastoma, sarcoma and high grade glioma. The trial will also study how BCT-100 is broken down in the body and look for new biological markers of treatment response. Up to 64 children with relapsed cancers will be recruited over 2 years.
