Filter by:This phase II clinical trial evaluates whether a modified modality of conditioning reduces treatment-related mortality (TRM) in patients who undergo a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for a hematological malignancy. HSCT is a curative therapy for many hematopoietic malignancies, however this regimen results in higher rates of TRM than other forms of treatment. In recent years, less intense conditioning regimens with radiation and chemotherapy prior to HSCT have been developed. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors while chemotherapy drugs like fludarabine and cyclophosphamide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. This study evaluates whether a two-step approach with lower-intensity regimens of these treatments prior to HSCT reduces the rate of TRM.
This multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of multi-kinase inhibitor LNK01002 in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), or MF due to polycythemia vera (PV-MF), or essential thrombocythemia (ET-MF), polycythemia vera (PV), or with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
This was an open-label, randomized, dose-finding study in patients with primary or secondary MF (Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System [DIPSS] risk score of Intermediate-1 to High-Risk) who were previously treated with ruxolitinib. The study was designed to support a pacritinib dosage selection decision with evaluation of 3 dosages.
This study evaluates either KRT-232 or TL-895 in treatment naïve patients with myelofibrosis (MF) The study will be conducted in 2 stages. Stage 1 will evaluate safety, tolerability, and efficacy of either KRT-232 (Arm 1) or TL-895 (Arm 2) in treatment naïve patients. Stage 2 will expand enrollment in Arm 1 and/or Arm 2 if expansion criteria is met.
This study will enroll male and female subjects who are 18 years of age or older with Primary Myelofibrosis, post-polycythemia Vera Myelofibrosis, or post-essential Thrombocythemia Myelofibrosis with severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count <50,000/µL) including subjects with intermediate-2 or high-risk MF according to the Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS).
This is a 2-part study. In Part 1, participants will be dosed at 2 different dose levels in order to select the RP2D for Part 2 of the study.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy of parsaclisib when combined with ruxolitinb versus placebo combined with ruxolitinib in participants with myelofibrosis.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of parsaclisib when combined with ruxolitinb versus placebo combined with ruxolitinib in participants with myelofibrosis who have suboptimal response while receiving ruxolitinib monotherapy.
This is an open label, single arm trial of PTG-300 in subjects with PV who are newly diagnosed or for whom current therapy is not sufficient to control their hematocrit and have hematocrit >48% prior to dosing. The PTG-300 dose and schedule may be adjusted every 2 to 4 weeks to maintain hematocrit <45% with a target of <43%. Subjects may receive PTG-300 treatment for up to 52 weeks.
High blood pressure (BP) is one of the principal cardiovascular risk factors. While BP levels and hypertension prevalence are well characterized in many populations, information on BP and on cardiovascular risk profile in high altitude inhabitants is limited and frequently contradictory, especially in the large highland populations of South America. The information on the effects of permanent high altitude exposure on cardiovascular variables including BP may be relevant in the light of the known BP-increasing effect of acute exposure to high altitude hypoxia. This information may have practical implications for millions of people living at elevated altitudes in Asia, South America and Africa. The inconclusive epidemiological evidence on BP and cardiovascular risk in high altitude dwellers may be the result of several factors, among them: 1) confounding by genetic and socio-economic factors; 2) imperfect methods of BP evaluation, in particular lack of data on ambulatory and home BP (both methods considered superior to conventional clinic BP in the assessment of exposure to high BP). On this background, the general aim of the study is to compare blood pressure levels and cardiovascular risk profile among population-based samples of subjects residing in Peruvian communities living at different altitudes.
