Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

This study is evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy of venetoclax under a once daily dosing schedule in Japanese participants with hematological malignancies.

Allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is frequently complicated by life threatening viral reactivation. Conventional antiviral therapy is suboptimal for cytomegalovirus (CMV), adenovirus (AdV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and nonexistent for BK virus (BKV). An alternative approach to prevent viral reactivation is to infuse virus-specific cytotoxic T cells (CTL) prepared from the donor early after SCT. Such multivirus-specific CTL cells (MVST) have been successfully used in a number of centers to prevent or treat CMV, Ad and EBV. Activity of BKV-reactive cells has not been studied. Multi virus-specific T cells (MVST) are donor lymphocytes that are highly enriched for viral antigens and expanded in vitro before infusion into the transplant recipient. Viral reactivation is a particular problem inT cell depleted SCT. Median time to CMV reactivation is estimated as 28 days post T-depleted transplant, but infusion of MVST within the immediate post-SCT period has not been previously studied. This protocol will be the first of a planned series of cellular therapies to be layered on our existing T lymphocyte depleted transplant platform protocol 13-H-0144. The aim of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of very early infusion of MVST directed against the four most common viruses causing complications after T-depleted SCT. GMP-grade allogeneic MVST from the stem cell donor will be generated using monocyte-derived donor dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with overlapping peptide libraries of immunodominant antigens from CMV, EBV, Ad, and BKV and expanded in IL-7 and IL-15 followed by IL-2 for 10-14 days. A fraction of the routine donor leukapheresis for lymphocytes obtained prior to stem cell mobilization will be used to generate the MVST cells. MVST passing release criteria will be cryopreserved ready for infusion post SCT. Eligible subjects on NHLBI protocol 13-H-0144 will receive a single early infusion of MVST within 30 days (target day +14, range 0-30 days) post SCT. Phase I safety monitoring will continue for 6 weeks. Viral reactivation (CMV, EBV, Ad, BK) will be monitored by PCR by serial blood sampling. The only antiviral prophylaxis given will be acyclovir to prevent herpes simplex and varicella zoster reactivation. Subjects with rising PCR exceeding threshold for treatment, or those with clinically overt viral disease will receive conventional antiviral treatment. Patients developing acute GVHD will receive standard treatment with systemic steroids. These patients are eligible for reinfusion of MVST when steroids are tapered. The clinical trial is designed as a single institution, open label, non-randomized Phase I/II trial of MVST in transplant recipients, designed as 3-cohort dose escalation Phase I followed by a 20 subject extension Phase II at the maximum tolerated dose of cells. Safety will be monitored continuously for a period of 6 weeks post T cell transfer. The primary safety endpoint will be the occurrence of dose limiting toxicity, defined as the occurrence of Grade IV GVHD or any other SAE that is deemed to be at least probably or definitely related to the investigational product. The primary efficacy endpoint for the phase II will be the proportion of CMV reactivation requiring treatment at day 100 post transplant. Secondary endpoints are technical feasibility of MSVT manufacture, patterns of virus reactivation by PCR, and clinical disease from EBV, Ad, BK, day 100 non-relapse mortality.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of decitabine when given together with filgrastim, cladribine, cytarabine, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that is newly diagnosed, has come back or has not responded to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, 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. Colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim, may increase the production of blood cells and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Decitabine, filgrastim, cladribine, cytarabine, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.

This phase I trial studies the side effects of DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401, poly ICLC, decitabine, and nivolumab in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401 is a vaccine that may help the immune system specifically target and kill cancer cells. Poly ICLC may help stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, 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. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401, poly ICLC, decitabine, and nivolumab may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia.

The purpose of this study is to assesses the benefit, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of BST-236 in patients with newly-diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who are not eligible for standard induction chemotherapy due to advanced age or comorbidities. The Complete Remission (CR) rate following treatment with BST-236 will be compared to the CR rate reported in historical data in a similar population.

An open-label, dose-escalation study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK), to determine the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and the recommended Phase 2 dose (RPTD), and to assess the preliminary efficacy of alvocidib with venetoclax when co-administered in participants with relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label study to evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of milademetan in Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. The milademetan initial dose will be Level 1: 90 mg. No increase in the milademetan dose will be made in the same participant. Dose-limiting toxicity associated with milademetan occurring at each level will be assessed, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be decided using a modified continuous reassessment method (mCRM).

This study is to investigate the therapeutic efficacy and side effect of chidamide, decitabine combined with priming IAG regimen for relapsed or refractroy acute myeloid leukemia

This phase II trial studies the side effects of salsalate when added to venetoclax and decitabine or azacitidine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplasia/myeloproliferative disease that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as salsalate, venetoclax, decitabine, and azacitidine 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.

The long-term outcome of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poor, with less than 30% of patients achieving long lasting remission or cure. This poor outcome is largely due to refractoriness to induction chemotherapy as well as relapses during and after completion of intensive induction and consolidation therapy. In patients with refractory/relapsed AML hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is currently the only treatment option offering a prospect of cure but outcome is heavy influenced by the remission status before allo-HCT. Therefore, patients are typically treated with salvage regimens based on high dose cytarabine (HiDAC) combined with mitoxantrone, fludarabine or idarubicin. Nevertheless, the remission rates remain poor and currently there is no accepted standard salvage regimen. Recent studies indicate that combination chemotherapy including HiDAC and gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) at a dose of 3 mg/m² leads to improved response rates in refractory AML. Proteasome inhibition with bortezomib appears to be a promising treatment strategy to restore chemo-sensitivity via EZH2 stabilisation. This study aims at improving response rates in refractory/ relapsed AML by combining high dose cytarabine, gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GA) and bortezomib (B). During this phase II study efficacy of B-GA is assessed in comparison to matched historical controls using the Matched Threshold Crossing (MTC)-approach. If results are promising, a subsequent randomized phase III study is intended to assess the efficacy of GA with or without bortezomib.
