Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant, Cyclophosphamide, Fludarabine, and Total-Body Irradiation in Treating...
Acute Biphenotypic LeukemiaAcute Lymphoblastic Leukemia19 moreThis phase II trial studies how well giving an umbilical cord blood transplant together with cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, and total-body irradiation (TBI) works in treating patients with hematologic disease. Giving chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide and fludarabine, and TBI before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem 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. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening.
Revlimid in Transfusion Dependent Patients
Myelodysplastic SyndromeThis is a prospective trial of Revlimid for subjects who have a blood cell cancer called myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Cells in their marrow make proteins through messages that are carried from the genes. The amount of the message tells researchers if the protein it is going to make is high or low. This is known as expression of genes. The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial testing the idea that expression of specific genes can help to predict which patients will respond to study drug administration with Revlimid (lenalidomide).
Contribution of Anti-platelet Antibodies Identified With MAIPA Assay in the Demonstration of the...
ThrombocytopeniaImmune Thrombocytopenia1 moreImmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disease but, paradoxically, and unlike other autoimmune diseases, antiplatelet antibodies are not used either for the diagnosis of the disease or for its prognosis. ITP is a diagnosis of exclusion retained after elimination of other pathologies leading to a thrombocytopenia. No major study has prospectively evaluated the diagnostic value of the presence of anti-platelet antibodies in the etiological investigation of a thrombocytopenia, nor the impact of platelet antibodies on the course of ITP. The gold standard analysis for the determination of platelet antibodies, is the "monoclonal antibody immobilization of platelet antigens" assay (MAIPA), either direct to detect autoantibodies attached to platelets, or indirect to detect circulating antiplatelet antibodies. Therefore, this work aims to study the contribution of the presence of anti-platelet antibodies detected in MAIPA to determine the autoimmune nature of a thrombocytopenia at diagnosis.
A Single-arm Trial of Roxadustat Combined With Retinoic Acid in the Treatment of Refractory Low-risk...
Myelodysplastic SyndromesRoxadustat has been approved for low-risk MDS clinical trials, but the trial results are not available. For refractory low-risk MDS, the effective rate of roxadustat treatment is about 20-30%, and roxadustat combined with retinoic acid may have better efficacy in the treatment of refractory low-risk MDS.

HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation With Reduced Dose Post...
Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaAcute Myeloid Leukemia9 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Reduced Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in patients with hematologic malignancies after receiving an HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor (MMUD) . The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does a reduced dose of PTCy reduce the occurrence of infections in the first 100 days after transplant? Does a reduced dose of PTCy maintain the same level of protection against Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) as the standard dose of PTCy?
Prolonged Ultra Low-dose Decitabine Plus Venetoclax for Primary Diagnosed Elderly AMLK/MDS

A Study Comparing Treatment Preference Between Oral Decitabine/Cedazuridine and Azacitidine in Myelodysplastic...
Myelodysplastic SyndromesLeukemia6 moreIt is hypothesized that significantly more patients would prefer oral decitabine/cedazuridine to subcutaneous (SC) azacitidine (AZA) due to several factors, including improved treatment convenience, the reduced risk of nosocomial infections, and reduced treatment discomfort. However, this hypothesis has not been formally studied in a controlled setting. This study aims to address this evidence gap and evaluate patient, primary caregiver (carer), and clinician treatment preference between oral decitabine/cedazuridine and SC AZA in the treatment of adult patients with International Prognostic Scoring System-Revised (IPSS-R) intermediate, IPSS intermediate-2, or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or low-blast (LB) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and thereby lend further credibility to the clinical, economic, and patient value of oral decitabine/cedazuridine.
Eltanexor (KPT-8602) With Inqovi (Decitabine-Cedazuridine) in High-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes...
Myelodysplastic SyndromesBackground: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are diseases that affect the bone marrow. They can inhibit the blood formation process and reduce blood cell counts. High-risk MDS can lead to leukemia. People with high-risk MDS have a low survival rate. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a study drug (KPT-8602), combined with another drug (Inqovi), in people with MDS. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 years and older with high-risk MDS that did not respond to treatment. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests and tests of their heart function. They may have a bone marrow biopsy: Their hip will be numbed; then a needle will be inserted to draw out a sample of soft tissue from inside the bone. They will answer questions about their quality of life. Genetic tests may be performed. KPT-8602 and Inqovi are both tablets taken by mouth. Participants will take these drugs at home on a 28-day cycle. They will take Inqovi once a day on days 1 to 5. They will take KPT-8602 on a schedule assigned by the researcher. Participants will be given a drug diary to record each dose. Participants will visit the clinic for an exam at least once in each cycle. Some tests, including the bone marrow biopsy, may be repeated. Participant will continue treatment for at least 6 cycles. If their disease improves, they may continue taking the drugs after 6 cycles. Participants will have follow-up visits at the clinic for about 8 years.
Trial of Cladribine and Low-Dose Cytarabine (LoDAC) Alternating With Decitabine vs. Hypomethylating...
Acute Myeloid LeukemiaMyelodysplastic SyndromesThis phase II, open-label, randomized trial will compare the efficacy of the novel regimen of cladribine/low-dose cytarabine alternating with decitabine to the current standard of care regimen of hypomethylating agents (decitabine or azacytidine) plus venetoclax in elderly and unfit patients presenting with AML or high grade MDS for whom targeted therapy based on the molecular/genetic subtype is not available. Subjects will be randomized to be treated with either cladribine/low-dose cytarabine alternating with decitabine (Arm A) or decitabine or azacitadine plus venetoclax (Arm B).
