Filter by: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 purpose of this study is to determine a dose of LY2784544 that may be safely administered to participants with myeloproliferative neoplasms.
New conditioning regimens are still needed to maximize efficacy and limit treatment-related deaths of allogeneic transplantation for advanced hematologic malignancies. Over the past several years, the investigators have evaluated several new conditioning regimens that incorporate fludarabine, a novel immunosuppressant that has limited toxicity and that has synergistic activity with alkylating agents. Recent data have suggested that fludarabine may be used in combination with standard doses of oral or IV busulfan, thus reducing the toxicity previously observed with cyclophosphamide/ busulfan regimens.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of an alternative dosing strategy of ruxolitinib in subjects with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera-myelofibrosis (PPV-MF) and post essential thrombocythemia-myelofibrosis (PET-MF) in order to minimize the development of anemia and thrombocytopenia.
This study will assess safety as well as establish a Recommended Phase II dose of the combination of panobinostat and ruxolitinib in patients with or without the JAK2V617F mutation who have been diagnosed with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), Post Essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis (PET MF), or Post-Polycythemia Vera Myelofibrosis (PPV MF).
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally administered NS-018 in patients with Primary Myelofibrosis (PMF), Post-polycythemia Vera Myelofibrosis (post-PV MF), or Post-essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis (post-ET MF)
The myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), most notably polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF) are a diverse but inter-related suite of clonal disorders of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells (Tefferi et al., 2008). The MPN share a range of biological, pathological, and clinical features including the relative overproduction of one or more cells of myeloid origin, growth factor independent colony formation in vitro, marrow hypercellularity, extramedullary hematopoiesis, spleno- and hepatomegaly, and thrombotic and/or hemorrhagic diatheses (Tefferi et al., 2005). This is a multi-centre, open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation study, to be conducted in two phases: a dose-escalation phase (Part 1), to determine the safety and tolerability of momelotinib (CYT387), and to identify a therapeutic dose for the expanded cohort; and a dose-confirmation phase (Part 2), which will be a cohort expansion at or below the MTD of momelotinib. In the Part I dose-escalation phase of the study, subjects will be assigned to dose levels in successive cohorts starting with a dose in the first cohort of 200 mg BID (twice daily with doses taken approximately 12 hours apart). Doses will be escalated by 50 mg BID per cohort until dose-limiting toxicities are observed. The dose level at which ≥2 of 6 subjects develop a first cycle dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as the DLT level. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is defined as the dose level below the DLT level. New dose levels may begin accrual only if all subjects at the current dose level have been observed for a minimum of 28 days from the first day of treatment. The dose level chosen for study in the dose confirmation phase of the study will be the MTD or a lower dose shown to have significant clinical activity (efficacy) as determined by the safety review committee. Subjects will be evaluated weekly for the first cycle, every 2 weeks during cycle 2, then monthly for 4 cycles for a total of 6 cycles. In the dose-confirmation phase of the study, approximately fifty (50) subjects will be treated at the MTD or at a lower dose shown to have significant clinical activity (efficacy) as chosen by the Safety Review Committee. In the dose confirmation phase of the study subjects will be evaluated every 2 weeks during the first treatment cycle, and then monthly for 5 cycles for a total of 6 cycles.
Primary Objective: - Dose Ranging Phase: To evaluate the efficacy of daily oral doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg SAR302503 in patients with PV and ET who are resistant or intolerant to hydroxyurea (per European LeukemiaNet criteria) for : - Inducing absence of phlebotomy and a hematocrit below 45% for a minimum of 3 months in patients with polycythemia vera, and - Reduction of platelet count to ≤400 x 10x9/L for a minimum of 3 months in patients with essential thrombocythemia. - PV Dose Expansion Phase and ET Dose Ranging Phase (only 600 mg dose group): To evaluate the efficacy of daily oral SAR302503 in patients with PV and ET who are resistant or intolerant to hydroxyurea (per European LeukemiaNet criteria) for: - Inducing absence of phlebotomy eligibility beginning at Day 1 of Cycle 4 visit and continuing through Day 1 of Cycle 6 visit in patients with PV, and - Reduction of platelet count to ≤400 x 10x9/L beginning at Day 1 of Cycle 4 visit and continuing through Day 1 of Cycle 6 visit in patients with ET. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the safety of SAR302503. - To evaluate the efficacy of SAR302503 in patients with PV who are resistant or intolerant to hydroxyurea for inducing absence of phlebotomy eligibility. - To evaluate the efficacy of SAR302503 in patients with ET who are resistant or intolerant to hydroxyurea for reduction of platelet counts. - To evaluate the efficacy of SAR302503 in inducing complete and partial responses beginning at Day 1 of Cycle 6 visit through Cycle 8. - To evaluate splenic response as measured by spleen volume using MRI or CT. - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of SAR302503 after single and repeat doses. - To evaluate the pharmacodynamics of SAR302503 as measured by changes in JAK2V617F allele burden in patients with JAK2V617F mutation, and STAT3 phosphorylation inhibition. - To measure improvement in baseline myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN)-associated symptoms, as well as overall impact on quality of life. - To measure generic health-related quality of life and utility value using the EuroQol Group (EQ-5DTM) questionnaire.
The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of INC424 as assessed by reduction in spleen volume in patients with primary myelofibrosis (MF), post-polycythemia vera (PV) MF, or post-essential thrombocythemia (ET) MF. The safety and tolerability of INC424 and the effects of INC424 on patient reported outcomes and the duration of response as assessed by reduction in spleen volume was also assessed.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and toxicity including quality of life of two types of low-dose interferon alpha compounds (PegIntron and Pegasys) with hydroxyurea (Hydrea), and to investigate the occurence of neutralizing antibodies against recombinant interferon.
