Phase 2 Haplotype Mismatched HSCT in Patients With Hematological Malignancies
Acute Myeloid LeukemiaAcute Lymphoblastic Leukemia2 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine if haplotype-mismatched HSCT is associated with an improvement in treatment-related mortality (TRM) rate at 6 months.
Augmentation of the Graft vs. Leukemia Effect Via Checkpoint Blockade With Pembrolizumab
Myelodysplastic SyndromesAcute Myeloid Leukemia1 moreThis is a single arm, open-label, Phase 1b study of pembrolizumab for patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) whose disease has relapsed after receiving allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplant.
DS-3201b for Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL)
LeukemiaMyeloid4 moreThis research study tests an investigational drug called DS-3201b. An investigational drug is a medication that is still being studied and has not yet been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA allows DS-3201b to be used only in research. It is not known if DS-3201b will work or not. This study consists of two parts. The first part (Part 1) is a dose escalation that will enroll subjects with AML or ALL that did not respond or no longer respond to previous standard therapy. The purpose of Part 1 of this research study is to determine the highest dose a patient can tolerate or recommended dose of DS-3201b that can be given to subjects with AML or ALL. Once the highest tolerable dose is determined, additional subjects will be enrolled at that dose into Part 2 of the study.
Stem Cell Transplant for Hematological Malignancy
LeukemiaMyeloid13 moreThe purpose of this study is to develop a standard of care treatment using allogeneic stem cells for patients with cancers of the blood. The protocol was revised to reflect that this study is considered "treatment guidelines", rather than a research study.
H19 in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Acute Lymphoid LeukemiaStudy the expression level of H19 gene in the samples from ALL patients by real-time PCR. Correlate the expression level of H19 gene with the clinical presentation and laboratory data of those patients.
Safety and Efficacy of BL-8040 for the Mobilization of Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cells and Allogeneic...
Acute Myelogenous LeukemiaAcute Lymphoblastic Leukemia9 moreCurrent protocols use G-CSF to mobilize hematopoietic progenitor cells from matched sibling and volunteer unrelated donors. Unfortunately, this process requires four to six days of G-CSF injection and can be associated with side effects, most notably bone pain and rarely splenic rupture. BL-8040 is given as a single SC injection, and collection of cells occurs on the same day as BL-8040 administration. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of this novel agent for hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization and allogeneic transplantation based on the following hypotheses: Healthy HLA-matched donors receiving one injection of BL-8040 will mobilize sufficient CD34+ cells (at least 2.0 x 10^6 CD34+ cells/kg recipient weight) following no more than two leukapheresis collections to support a hematopoietic cell transplant. The hematopoietic cells mobilized by SC BL-8040 will be functional and will result in prompt and durable hematopoietic engraftment following transplantation into HLA-identical siblings with advanced hematological malignancies using various non-myeloablative and myeloablative conditioning regimens and regimens for routine GVHD prophylaxis. If these hypotheses 1 and 2 are confirmed after an interim safety analysis of the data, then the study will continue and include recruitment of haploidentical donors.
Reduced Intensity Conditioning Transplant Using Haploidentical Donors
Chronic Myelogenous LeukemiaAcute Myelogenous Leukemia8 moreThis trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a reduced intensity allogeneic HSCT from partially HLA-mismatched first-degree relatives utilizing PBSC as the stem cell source. The primary objective of the study is to estimate the incidence of graft rejection and acute GVHD. A secondary objective will be to estimate the incidence of the relapse, NRM, OS, chronic GVHD and EFS.
iCare for Cancer Patients
Myelodysplastic SyndromesAcute Myeloid Leukemia6 moreThe purpose of this study is to use genomic information from individual patients to create simulation avatars that will be used to predict novel drug combinations with therapeutic potential.
Study to Assess Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antitumor Activity of AZD4573 in Relapsed/Refractory...
Relapsed or Refractory Haematological Malignancies IncludingAcute Myeloid Leukemia9 moreThe purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and preliminary antitumor activity of AZD4573 in subjects with relapsed or refractory haematological malignancies.
Personalized Kinase Inhibitor Therapy Combined With Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Newly...
Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaAcute Myeloid LeukemiaThis phase IB trial studies the feasibility of using a functional laboratory based study to determine how well the test can be used to select personalized kinase inhibitor therapy in combination with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It also evaluates safety and potential efficacy. Kinase inhibitor is a type of substance that blocks an enzyme called a kinase. Human cells have many different kinase enzymes, and they help control important cell functions. Certain kinases are more active in some types of cancer cells and blocking them may help keep the cancer cells from growing. Testing samples of blood from patients with AML and ALL in the laboratory with kinase inhibitors may help determine which kinase inhibitor has more activity against cancer cells and which one should be combined with standard of care chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy 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 a personalized kinase inhibitor therapy combined with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for AML and ALL.
