Filter by:Unrelated Cord Blood (UCB) transplant in children is a viable stem cell transplant modality for patients with leukemia and myelodysplasia. UCB is now considered "Standard Of Care" in cases where a suitable living bone marrow donor is not available. The survival of UCB is similar to Matched Unrelated Marrow Transplant. This study is considered "Research" since UCB is not a licensed product and requires investigational new drug (IND). THERE ARE NO SPECIFIC RESEARCH QUESTIONS IN THIS PROTOCOL. This protocol merely provides UCB as a stem cell treatment modality to pediatric patients who may require it after a conditioning regimen that excludes Total Body Irradiation.
The purpose of this study is to learn if 5'-Azacitidine will help to lower the risk of the disease coming back after a stem cell transplant in patients with MDS and AML. This study will also be looking at the side effects of this medicine. 5'-Azacitidine is an FDA approved drug for treatment of MDS and AML, as well as patients whose disease came back after transplant, where it helped going into remission. It is unclear if 5'-Azacitidine can prevent the disease from coming back after transplant. This study will help show if getting 5'-Azacitidine soon after transplant can lower the risk of your disease coming back.
The purpose of this open label study is to determine whether combining pracinostat (study drug) with Vidaza (azacitidine) or Dacogen (decitabine) will improve clinical responses in Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) patients who have failed an initial single agent hypomethylating agent (HMA), and to provide additional safety and efficacy data.
Study WCMC IST/VOS/MDS evaluates the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of vosaroxin in adult patients with pathologically confirmed Myelodysplastic Syndrome, or MDS, (< 20% blasts in bone marrow, peripheral blood, or both) by World Health Organization (WHO) classification with an intermediate 2 (INT-2) or high-risk score (ie, ≥ 1.5) as assessed by the International Scoring System (IPSS) after failure of hypomethylating agent-based therapy. Based on 3 completed studies and xenograft models, Vosaroxin is hypothesized to be safe and will effective in this patient population.
The study aims to evaluate the molecular mechanism underlying the erythroid response observed in some patients with myelodysplasia, myelofibrosis and aplastic anemia treated with Deferasirox or Deferoxamina.
The purpose of this study is to observe the number of new cases of infections per population in a given time period and their characteristics in a pathology (myelodysplastic syndrome, MDS)that involves ineffective production (or dysplasia) of a class of blood cells.
To utilise extended platelet parameters in order to individuate Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) from hypo-proliferative causes of thrombocytopenia. To develop the clinical potential of the extended platelet parameters as they pertain to distinguishing different causes of thrombocytopenia from one another. To test the hypothesis that mean platelet component (MPC) and mean platelet mass (MPM) might distinguish between thrombocytopenia related to bone marrow dysfunction and immune mediated destruction of platelets.
The purpose of this study is to compare treatment methods and outcomes of patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
This study will examine the effect intravenously administered rigosertib has on the relationship between bone marrow blasts response and overall survival in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients who have 5-30% bone marrow blasts and who progressed on or after treatment with azacitidine or decitabine.
This study, is a Phase I/II clinical trial in three parts: Phase I Dose Escalation, Phase II, Part 1 RPTD Cohort, and Phase II, Part 2 Expansion. The first two parts have been completed. The Phase II, Part 2 Expansion will assess if treatment with rigosertib in combination with azacitidine, has measurable effects in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Safety of patients is an objective throughout all parts of the study.
