Active clinical trials for "Myelodysplastic Syndromes"

Study of the efficacy of CPX-351 treatment in patients with higher risk myelodysplastic syndromes : as first line treatment or after hypomethylating agents failure

An open-label study available to all eligible participants from Study B1371019 and participants originating from Study B1371012 continuing on study intervention with azacitidine with or without glasdegib.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of the disease and HSCT on muscle dysfunction and to investigate the prognostic role of muscle dysfunction at critical decision points in patients with hematological diseases referred to hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT: Patients diagnosed with malignant hematological diseases who are referred to myeloablative HSCT, to a myeloablative "reduced toxicity conditioning" regime with Fludarabine and Treosulfane (FluTreo) or to non-myeloablative HSCT.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and determine the best dose of prexasertib (LY2606368) when given together with cytarabine and fludarabine in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement or no longer responds to treatment. Prexasertib (LY2606368) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and fludarabine, 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. Giving prexasertib (LY2606368) together with cytarabine and fludarabine may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

This clinical pilot trial is intended to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-mismatched related donors for children and young adults with hematologic malignancies who lack a suitably matched related or unrelated donor. The methodology will be one that has been successfully utilized in adult patients at Thomas Jefferson University.

To see if it is possible to use short-duration tacrolimus after a peripheral blood stem cell transplant in certain malignancies that are considered difficult to engraft.

This clinical trial studies how well early stem cell transplantation works in treating patients with high-grade myeloid neoplasms that has come back after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as filgrastim, cladribine, cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, 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. Giving chemotherapy before a donor peripheral blood cell 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 donated stem cells may also replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells. Early stem cell transplantation may result in more successful treatment for patients with high-grade myeloid neoplasms.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pevonedistat plus azacitidine versus single-agent azacitidine in participants with HR-MDS or CMML, or low-blast AML.

RO6870810 (formerly TEN-010) is a small molecule, bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) bromodomain inhibitor. This study is designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of RO6870810 monotherapy in participants with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (RR-AML) and hypomethylating agent (HMA)-refractory myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The study will consist of a Screening Period, Treatment Period, and Post-Treatment Period. A standard 3+3 design will be used in which successive cohorts of three or more participants with RR-AML or HMA-refractory MDS will be treated at escalating doses until a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is identified. Up to 51 adult participants with AML or MDS will be enrolled in the study.

This study evaluates the efficacy of high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphomide as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with different risk of GVHD. The risk-adapted strategy involves using single-agent cyclophosphomide in recipients of matched bone marrow graft, and combining cyclophosphomide with tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil in recipients of matched peripheral blood stem cells and mismatched bone marrow.
