Active clinical trials for "Hematologic Neoplasms"

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a life-saving procedure in patients with blood cancers, but only 25% of transplant candidates have a sibling donor. A matched unrelated donor can be found for 60% of patients but this number is lower for non-Caucasians. Cord blood (CB), another source of stem cells, has major advantages over unrelated donors including immediate availability, better permissiveness in immune mismatches between donor and transplant recipient, better availability for non-Caucasians, and less graft versus host disease, a complication frequently seen after transplant which negatively affects quality of life. Unfortunately, the use of CB is still limited in adults because of the small number of stem cells. UM171, a molecule with hematopoietic stem cell expansion properties, has been shown to increase cord blood stem cells 13 fold. In this trial, Investigators will use UM171 treated CB in patients who need a transplant but lack an acceptable donor.This protocol seeks to test the safety of CB cells expanded with UM171, and to determine the kinetics of engraftment as well as the minimal cord blood unit cell dose that when expanded achieves prompt engraftment.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, nonrandomized study to determine the PK profiles of belinostat in patients with relapsed/refractory solid tumors or hematological malignancies who have heterozygous and homozygous UGT1A1*28 genotypes and wild-type UGT1A1 gene. Enrolled patients will be assigned to 1 of 3 cohorts (A, B, or C) based on their UGT1A1 genotype

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if lorvotuzumab mertansine can help to control blood cancers that have the CD56 tumor marker. The safety of this drug will also be studied.

The goal of this study is to determine whether post-transplant consolidation with azacitidine combined with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) is a safe and effective approach for the prevention of relapse in pediatric and young adult patients with hematologic malignancies who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

To assess safety and tolerability, describe the dose-limiting toxicities, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the highest protocol-defined dose (maximum administered dose) in the absence of establishing the MTD, and a recommended dose for further evaluation of MEDI7247 in patients with selected hematological malignancies who have relapsed after, or are refractory to prior standard therapy, and for whom there is no standard salvage regimen available.

This is a single arm open label phase 2 study evaluating the potential effect of ixazomib on the prevention of recurrent or late acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD at 1-year following reduced intensity (RI) or non-myeloablative (NMA) allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

The purpose of this study is to study the effects of isavuconazole in preventing fungal infections in patients who have had a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT).

To date, studies published on multidimensional rehabilitation programs are addressed to patients with different types of cancer and, frequently, these studies only include a limited number of patients with blood neoplasms. So, there is no evidence of the effectiveness of multidimensional rehabilitation programs in this particular category of patients. A systematic review of the effectiveness of aerobic exercise alone, not associated with therapeutic education, has recently been conducted in adult individuals with hematological malignancies (reference 25386666). The review highlighted the effectiveness of physical activity on the quality of life of the target population. However, the medium and long term effects that physical exercise have on other clinically relevant endpoints, such as fatigue, psychological distress, and physical performance level, remain to be clarified. Thus, it is important to investigate the effectiveness of multidimensional interventions that integrate physical activity to therapeutic education targeted at the specific needs of individuals with blood neoplasm. The aim of this study is to evaluate, in blood cancer patients, the feasibility of a therapeutic education program associated with physical activity, and to verify its effect by a long-term follow-up.

This study evaluates the pharmacokinetics and safety of CPX-351 in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment.

This is a Phase I, open label, dose escalation study of oral administration of MLN0128 in combination with paclitaxel, with/without trastuzumab, in participants with advanced solid malignancies.
