Filter by:This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of nivolumab and ipilimumab after donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high risk acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that does not respond to treatment or has come back. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
In this trial, the investigators would like to understand why a small percentage of patients will be refractory to ESA (independently of International prognostic scoring system (IPSS) and % of blasts). In a retrospective study of the "Groupe Francophone des Myélodysplasies (GFM)" , the investigators showed that about 43% of patients are refractory or will relapse after initial response to ESA and it has been shown that these patients have a poorer survival. The investigators plan to give a 12-week treatment of Epoetin alfa or zeta in low risk MDS patients and measure different biological factors to predict response to ESA: - evaluation by flow cytometry before and after treatment of the degree of dyserythropoiesis and dysgranulopoiesis which could explain the primary resistance or loss of response of a subset of patients, - screening by molecular biology of predictive factors of response to ESA, - Iron homeostasis will be measured via hepcidin, GDF-15 and ferritin levels.
This faisability study aims to evaluate the adhesion of the patient to a multidisciplinary program (adapted physical activity, coaching and nutrition)
Infections are a major life-threatening complication in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Currently there is no guidelines about antibacterial prophylaxis to prevent infections in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukaemia. The investigators will conduct a randomized prospective study to evaluate the benefit of prophylactic antibacterial by levofloxacin on febrile episode in Azacytidine treated patients (MDS and AML).
Alvocidib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK 9) inhibitor, in time-sequential therapy demonstrated significant clinical activity in secondary AML patients with prior MDS. Patients with IPSS-R intermediate and above MDS have an increased risk of developing AML and may be treated with the same chemotherapy regimens used in patients with AML. Eight Phase I or II clinical trials have been completed in patients with AML, totaling more than 400 patients with both relapsed/refractory or newly diagnosed AML. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that decitabine exposure increased the expression of NOXA, which is a specific antagonist of the survival factor MCL 1. Pharmacologic downregulation of MCL-1 via CDK 9 inhibition, as well as upregulation of the MCL-1 antagonist, NOXA, following decitabine exposure may result in enhanced antileukemic activity in MCL-1-dependent malignancies.
This phase II trial studies how well dexrazoxane hydrochloride works in preventing heart-related side effects of chemotherapy in participants with blood cancers, such as acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myeloid leukemia, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. Chemoprotective drugs, such as dexrazoxane hydrochloride, may protect the heart from the side effects of drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine, idarubicin, cytarabine, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin, in participants with blood cancers.
This is a pilot and feasibility study of transplant eligible, higher risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients to determine the safety and tolerability of a lower -dose and higher-dose CPX-351 regimen, with secondary objectives including complete remission (CR) rates and proportion of patients proceeding to transplant.
This study will treat patients with previously untreated high grade myleodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with both omacetaxine mepesuccinate and azacitidine.
This is a multi-center, Phase II, cross-sectional study comparing quality of life (QOL) as assessed by patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in older (≥65 years) adults vs younger (55-64 years) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
The purpose of this observational study is to provide data on the incidence and severity of infusion-related reactions during and immediately following each infusion of VYXEOS during the first induction.
