Filter by:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are myeloid hemopathies characterized by ineffective clonal haematopoiesis, peripheral cytopenias and a predisposition to the occurrence of acute myeloid leukemias. Their diagnosis involves a cytological evaluation of the medulla, while their prognosis, in addition to extrinsic factors depending on the patient himself (age, comorbidities), intrinsic factors. The cytological evaluation is subject to a certain subjectivity since qualitative and the diagnosis is sometimes difficult in the absence of marker of clonality. More and more studies emphasize the interest of flow cytometry (CMF) in the diagnosis of SMD: by looking for qualitative and / or quantitative aberrations of the expression of membrane markers, CMF allows to establish scores Diagnosis that we have put in place within the laboratory. However, these studies are based on a static model that studies the phenotypic characteristics of patients at a given time but does not really reflect ineffective hematopoiesis. A dynamic model for in vitro reproduction of hematopoiesis would be an innovative tool for the study of SMD. This project aims to develop and standardize a system of differentiation in liquid medium of hematopoietic stem cells (CSH) in mature cells by studying each stage of the differentiation in terms of proliferation, apoptosis and phenotypic expression. HSCs will be obtained by CD34 + sorting from the medullary sample at diagnosis: the investigator will study cell proliferation, apoptosis and the acquisition of surface markers, in order to identify the quantitative and qualitative abnormalities associated with the differentiation of haematopoietic progenitors Smart. This should make it possible to identify diagnostic and prognostic factors in terms of response to treatment, acutism and survival.
This phase II trial studies how well an umbilical cord blood transplant with added sugar works with chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with leukemia or lymphoma. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a 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. The umbilical cord blood cells will be grown ("expanded") on a special layer of cells collected from the bone marrow of healthy volunteers in a laboratory. A type of sugar will also be added to the cells in the laboratory that may help the transplant to "take" faster.
This phase II trial studies the side effects of azacitidine and pembrolizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome. Azacitidine may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving azacitidine and pembrolizumab may work better at treating myelodysplastic syndrome.
This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well azacitidine with or without nivolumab or midostaurin, or decitabine and cytarabine alone work in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, decitabine, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Midostaurin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving azacitidine with or without nivolumab or midostaurin, or decitabine and cytarabine alone may kill more cancer cells.
This study will evaluate the safety of infusing an anti-MiHA T cell line in patients suffering from an hematologic malignancy that has relapsed following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a matched donor.
Historically, the best results of allogeneic SCT have been obtained when the stem cell donor is a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling, however, this is only available for approximately 30 percent of patients in need for SCT. Alternative donor sources include matched unrelated donor utilizing the donor registry, cord blood transplant and mismatched donor transplant. A human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical donor is one who shares, by common inheritance, exactly one HLA haplotype with the recipient, and includes the biologic parents, biologic children and full or half siblings. There is strong body of evidence supporting the use of haplo-SCT in patient who lack a matched sibling or unrelated donor with high rates of successful engraftment, effective Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) control and favorable outcomes comparative to those seen using other allograft sources, including HLA-matched sibling SCT. Furthermore, it provides a cost-efficient donor option in a timely manner especially for patients who need to proceed quickly to transplant due to concern of disease relapse/progression.
This pilot study evaluates safety of administration of red blood cell transfusions requested by patients based on their symptoms instead of levels of hemoglobin for the treatment of chronic anemia in patients with blood disorders.
The main objective of this work is to conduct a clinical study for the development and application of a vaccine with autologous dendritic cells submitted to electroporation with Wilm's tumor 1 (WT1) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), as an adjuvant treatment of high-risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Acute Myeloid Leukemia, aiming to delay the progression of the disease or its relapse and increase overall and event-free survival.
This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study of TEW-7197 in patients with low and intermediate risk of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
The purpose of this study is to collect information and bone marrow, blood, saliva, cheek cells and skin to be used in the laboratory to assist the sponsor in identifying a new way of treating MDS.
