Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and total-body irradiation together with a donor bone marrow transplant works in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. Giving cyclophosphamide after transplant may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's bone marrow stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune system cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Zosuquidar trihydrochloride, a modulator of multidrug resistance (MDR), may help daunorubicin and cytarabine kill more cancer cells by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs. It is not yet known whether daunorubicin and cytarabine are more effective with or without zosuquidar trihydrochloride in treating acute myeloid leukemia or anemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well giving zosuquidar trihydrochloride together with daunorubicin and cytarabine works compared to daunorubicin and cytarabine alone in treating older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or anemia that has not responded to previous treatment.
CPKC412A2104 core had a 2 stage design. In stage 1, eight participants were treated. If at least one participant showed a clinical response, four more participants were recruited to stage 2. The trial was to be stopped if no participants showed a response in stage 1. POC was achieved if at least 2 participants out of 12 responded. In PKC412A2104E1, participants with AML or high risk MDS with wild-type or mutant FTL3 who had not previously received a FLT3 inhibitor were randomized to receive continuous twice daily oral doses of either 50 or 100 mg midostaurin in 1 28-day cycle regimen. Participants were to be treated until disease progression or the occurrence of unacceptable treatment-related toxicity. PKC412A2104 E2 contained 2 dosing regimens: 1) intra-participant midostaurin dose escalation and 2) midostaurin with itraconazole in participants with AML and high risk MDS irrespective of FLT3 status. Eligible participants were alternately assigned to the regimens. At the Investigator's discretion, intra-participant dose escalation was allowed for any previously enrolled CPKC412A2104E1 participant receiving midostaurin at the time of the approval of amendment 4. Participants were treated until the time of disease progression.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety of CC-1088 to patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of tipifarnib in treating patients who have acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome in first complete remission
RATIONALE: Photopheresis treats the patient's blood with drugs and ultraviolet light outside the body and kills the white blood cells. Giving photopheresis, pentostatin, and radiation therapy before a donor bone marrow or stem cell transplant helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune system and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving pentostatin before transplant and cyclosporine or mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving pentostatin together with photopheresis and total-body irradiation work before donor bone marrow transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes.
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with donor peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining total-body irradiation with fludarabine and donor peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have hematologic cancer.
This trial is in high risk patients to determine the safety and efficacy of posaconazole vs. fluconazole in the prophylaxis against development of invasive fungal infections. Profound, prolonged neutropenia (Absolute neutrophil count<500 cells/cubic mm for at least 7 days) due to induction chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. Treatment Duration: maximum of 12 weeks Follow-Up 2 months. Endpoints: incidence of proven or probable IFI according to EORTC/MSG criteria within the neutropenic episode and within 100 days of randomization as determined by external expert review.
To estimate the percent of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who experience erythroid response and the interval to response with daily treatment of 25 mg of CC-5013 .
To compare the safety and efficacy profiles of decitabine to those of supportive care in adults with advanced-stage myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
