Chronic Myeloid LeukemiaPh+ Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaThe purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ponatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP) or blast phase (BP) or with philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who either are resistant or intolerant to either dasatinib or nilotinib, or have the (T)hreonine-315-(I)soleucine (T315I) mutation.

A Safety Study of SGN-CD19A for Leukemia and Lymphoma
Burkitt LymphomaPrecursor B-cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-LymphomaThis is a phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SGN-CD19A in adult and pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), Burkitt lymphoma or leukemia, or B-lineage lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL).
Phase I/II Study of Nilotinib/Ruxolitinb Therapy for TKI Resistant Ph-Leukemia
Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid LeukemiaAccelerated Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia3 moreThis is the study to test combination regimen of Nilotinib and Ruxolitinib therapy for the treatment of patients with Philadelphia positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who is resistant to multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies with BCR-ABL kinase inhibition activity. Ruxolitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor blocking alternative pathway independent of BCR-ABL mediated pathway, thus having a potential to overcome tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance in Philadelphia positive CML or ALL patients. Phase I study will be conducted to define a recommended phase II dose (RPTD) and phase II study will examine the hypothesis that combinational approach will increase response rate of resistant CML/ALL patients, thus evaluating efficacy of the combination regimen.
Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood (UBC)Transplantation
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)7 moreHematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC- primitive cells in the blood, bone marrow and umbilical cord that can restore the bone marrow) transplant can be a curative therapy for the treatment of hematologic malignancies (a disease of the bone marrow and lymph nodes). The source of cells used for the transplant comes from related (sibling) and in cases where there is no sibling match, from unrelated donors through the National Marrow Donor Program. The availability of a suitable donor can be a significant obstacle for patients who need a transplant but do not have a matched donor. Cord blood that has been harvested from an umbilical cord shortly after birth has a rich supply of cells needed for transplant. These stored cord bloods are now being used to transplant adults without a matched donor Advantages to using cord blood includes a readily available source of cells with no risk to the donor during the collection process, immediate source of cells in urgent situations (no lengthy donor work-up)and a reduction in infectious disease transmission to the recipient. One of the main disadvantages is the cord blood has a small number of cells needed for transplant. In an adult, usually two cords are needed and large recipients do not qualify because they need too many cells. This study will use two different preparative regimens (chemotherapy and radiation) followed by one or two umbilical cord units (UBC). The preparative regimen used will be chosen by the physician and is based on patient's age, disease and medical condition at the time of transplant. Multiple objectives for this study include disease-free and overall survival, treatment related mortality, rate of cells taking hold, and the incidence and severity of the transplant complication called graft versus host disease (GVHD).
Belinostat and Bortezomib in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Leukemia or Myelodysplastic...
Acute Lymphocytic LeukemiaAcute Myeloid Leukemia2 moreRATIONALE: Belinostat and bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving belinostat together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving belinostat together with bortezomib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

LeukemiaThe goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Procrit (epoetin alfa) will decrease the need for blood transfusions in patients with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL), Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (LL), or Burkitt's who are receiving chemotherapy. Another goal is to study the remission rates in patients with cancer who have received treatment with epoetin alfa.
