Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Lymphoid"

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety for treating adult ALL patients with the pediatric protocol.

This research study measures the safety and efficacy of the combination of three drugs that are approved, Nipent, Rituxan and Cytoxan in the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). These drugs are being given together for investigational purposes as the specific combination of these three drugs has not been approved for treatment of CLL by the FDA.

This study is a Phase 1, non-randomized, open-label/Phase 2 randomized, blinded study of ProTmune (ex vivo programmed mobilized peripheral blood cells) versus non-programmed mobilized peripheral blood cells for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in adult subjects aged 18 years and older with hematologic malignancies. A total of 88 study subjects were treated in the trial at approximately 15 centers in the US.

The present study was conducted to assess the population pharmacokinetics of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and genetic polymorphisms

Usually Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a disease of the elderly patients. However, the diagnosis in young patients become more frequently with poor prognosis. The identification of new prognostic factors permits early determination of the high risk population and provide them the therapeutic intensification. Allogeneic transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (AHSCT) allows to long-term remission and in some cases complete and definitive eradication of the disease. After chemotherapy or antibodies, the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) negativity is associated with better disease-free survival. MRD negativity occurs in some patients with the appearance of GVHD, stopping the immunosuppression or after donor lymphocyte injection (DLI). The negativity of MRD in the first year post-transplant is correlated with better progression-free survival or overall survival (Dreger 2010, Farina 2009, Caballero 2005, Algrin, 2011). So, MRD negativity may be an objective after AHSCT. The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate a standardized preemptive immunointervention of post-allograft immunosuppressive therapy modulation and DLI administration according to MRD level. The objective is to obtain MRD negativity at 12 months after AHSCT.

The present study aims at verifying the state of the art in what this illness concerns and at organizing a centralized samples analysis.

This pilot trial studies the impact of genetic information on developing liver damage caused by asparaginase in participants with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Testing saliva samples may help doctors find certain genetic markers that may predict whether participants will tolerate asparaginase, which is given as part of clinical care for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to identify 50 participants with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and follow their total white blood cell (WBC) counts and absolute lymphocyte counts after performing dermal chelation and administering nutritional therapy

The clinical study of CART19 Cells treatment for MRD of B Cell Malignancies and then auto-HSCT

To evaluate whether CAMPATH-1H given to patients with CLL after maximum response to chemotherapy will: a) eliminate minimal residual disease (documented by flow cytometry) in patients who have achieved a complete remission (CR) or b) convert partial remission to complete remission. To evaluate the time-to-progression of patients according to pretreatment characteristics and response status at study entry. To evaluate whether CAMPATH-1H given to patients with CLL after maximum response to chemotherapy will eliminate minimal residual disease as determined by real-time quantitative PCR.
