Filter by:The proposed phase II trial is a multicenter, randomized, open-label study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of azacitidine alone or in combination with lenalidomide in high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with a karyotype including del(5q). The primary objective will be to evaluate the efficacy in terms of response according to International Working Group (IWG) criteria for MDS and AML after 6 cycles of azacitidine or azacitidine + lenalidomide treatment, or at end of study if this occurs at an earlier time point.
Background: - Cord blood transplants can treat cancers and other diseases in children and adults. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires cord blood to be collected and stored under certain safety standards. However, most available cord blood units were collected before the FDA set these standards. These units may not meet FDA standards, but they do meet similar standards set and followed by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP). Cord blood units that do not meet the new FDA standards may be used for transplants only as part of a research study. Doctors want to allow people who need transplants to receive cord blood that meets NMDP standards but may not meet FDA standards. Objectives: - To allow selected cord blood units that do not meet current FDA standards to be used for transplant. Eligibility: - Individuals who need cord blood units for transplant, and who best match cord blood units that are not FDA-licensed. Design: - Participants will provide consent to receive cord blood that meets NMDP standards but may not meet FDA standards. - Participants will remain on the study for observation for up to 1 year after transplant, or until they withdraw from the study for personal or medical reasons....
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if cladribine given in combination with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) and decitabine can help control the disease in patients with AML or MDS. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Cladribine is designed to interfere with the cell's ability to process DNA (the genetic material of cells). It can also insert itself into the DNA of cancer cells to stop them from growing and repairing themselves. Cytarabine is designed to insert itself into DNA of cancer cells to stop them from growing and repairing themselves. Decitabine is designed to damage the DNA of cells, which may cause cancer cells to die. This is an investigational study. Cladribine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with hairy cell leukemia. Its use in patients with AML is investigational. Cytarabine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with AML. Decitabine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with MDS. Its use for patients with AML is investigational. Up to 160 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
RATIONALE: Conditioning with total body irradiation (TBI) and fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and anti-thymocyte globulin may induce the engraftment cross the immunologic barrier in the setting of HLA-haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. In addition, T-cell depletion may contribute to prevent developing severe acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) in haploidentical transplantation. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TBI, fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and antithymocyte globulin with T-cell depleted graft from haploidentical donors in treating patients with acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.
This study is being performed to develop assays to determine the impact of the therapy patients receive for treatment of AML or MDS and to determine if these tests can identify those patients who are at a greater risk for having their disease relapse.
The present study is designed to determine the mutational status of markers (TET2 and PLCb2, cytogenetic aberrations) together with methylation status of the above genes using bone marrow and matched buccal cell samples from MDS patients who necessitate to start a treatment (i.e. EPO, Lenalidomide, Azacytidine). All patients included in the study will be followed for at least 2 years.
To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of the conditioning regimen with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and antithymocyte globulin (CyFluATG) for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in patients with lower risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of reduced-intensity conditioning allogeneic HCT followed by prophylactic dose-escalating DLIs in patients with higher risk MDS.
This is a registry study in adult patients with newly diagnosed or refractory/relapsed myeloid neoplasms Investigator's sites: 60-70 sites in Germany and Austria Estimated duration of observation of an individual patient: 10 years maximum Objectives - To register all patients with acute myeloid leukemia and related precursor neoplasms, acute leukemia of unambiguous lineage, with higher risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS with excess blasts 2), and with myeloid neoplasms with germline predisposition, newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory in all participating centers (completeness) - To perform timely analyses of disease-related genetic markers (incidences, treatment recommendations) - To assess patient and family history, clinical characteristics and outcome data (event-free survival [EFS], cumulative incidence of relapse [CIR], cumulative incidence of death [CID], overall survival [OS]) - To assess biological disease features and correlate with clinical outcome data (prognostic and predictive markers) - To store biosamples from all patients (e.g., bone marrow, blood, plasma, normal tissue, e.g., skin biopsy, buccal swap, finger nails, hairs, or sputum) - To assess quality of life
This is a combination study to evaluate sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine in previously untreated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or concomitantly with venetoclax in previously treated AML or MDS
