Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

ASLAN003-003 is a multi-center, Phase IIA study to evalute the efficacy of ASLAN003 in AML patients who are ineligible for standard treatment with an expansion cohort in relapsed/refractory patients, and to determine the appropriate dose of ASLAN003 in combination with azacitidine in older (more than or equal to 60 years) AML patients who have exhausted any approved and available treatment options.

This is an open label, multi-center, phase 1 study of DSP-2033 (Alvocidib) in combination with cytarabine/mitoxantrone (ACM regimen) or cytarabine/daunorubicin (A+7+3 regimen) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

This Phase 3 study assesses two drug regimens as the initial treatment of patients who are at least 70 years of age and have newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) for whom the doctor does not recommend the use of standard intensive treatment or the patient has decided not to receive standard intensive treatment after being fully informed about its benefits and risks by his/her doctor. The two drug regimens are sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine or decitabine alone. The purpose of the study is to learn which drug regimen is more likely to keep AML in check as long as possible.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of clofarabine, idarubicin, and cytarabine, or the combination of fludarabine, idarubicin, and cytarabine can help control Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The safety of these study drug combinations will also be studied.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of study drug PLX3397 at 3 dose levels (800 mg/day, 1000 mg/day, and 1200 mg/day) and explore the efficacy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Additional dose levels beyond 1200 mg/day may be considered based on safety and efficacy observations.

The hypothesis of this proposal is that combining plerixafor, an inhibitor of stromal cell derived factor - 1α (SDF-1α), with decitabine, a DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, as induction and postremission therapy for older patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) will improve treatment outcomes via mobilization of leukemia stem cells and alteration of the pharmacodynamics of decitabine. The protocol will establish the safety and feasibility of combining two different doses of plerixafor with a fixed dose and schedule of decitabine.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if omacetaxine given with cytarabine can help to control the disease in patients with AML or high-risk MDS. The safety of the study drugs will also be studied.

The AML-03 regimen investigates the addition of G-CSF priming to both induction and consolidation chemotherapies administrated in the previous AML-99 trial (NCT01716793) refines risk-stratification based on biological characterization also the AML-03 trial incorporates novel approaches for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: such as Mylotarg™ "in vivo purging" in autografts, extends unrelated volunteers donors for allotransplants in high-risk patients, and introduces reduced intensity conditioning in patients with elder age (more than 50 years old). The aims of these modifications are to analyse eficacy and toxicity of this induction and consolidation therapy and to analyse the disease free survival in patients who achieved complete response following a risk adjusted therapy.

Background: Several types of blood cancer are associated with poor outcomes including high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Many people with MDS, CMML, and AML are not candidates for standard treatments. New types of treatment are needed for these cancers. Clofarabine and lenalidomide are anticancer drugs. The first damages cancer cells in the body. The second can alter blood supply to abnormal cells or affect how the immune system attacks these cells. These drugs have been previously tested as treatments for MDS and leukemia. However, they have not been tried as a combination for MDS, CMML, and AML. Researchers want to see if these drugs are safe and effective for these types of cancer. Objectives: - To test the safety and effectiveness of clofarabine and lenalidomide for people with high-risk MDS, CMML, and AML. Eligibility: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have high-risk MDS, CMML, and AML. Participants must not be candidates for standard treatments. Design: Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and bone marrow samples will be collected. Participants will have 5 days of treatment with clofarabine. It will be given through a vein during an inpatient hospital stay. If there are no serious side effects after the infusion, participants will continue treatment as outpatients. After 28 days, participants will have a bone marrow biopsy to check their response to treatment. After the biopsy, participants will start lenalidomide treatment. Half of the participants will take the drug for 28 days (one treatment cycle). The other half will take it for 56 days (two cycles). More blood tests and biopsies will be used to monitor treatment. If there are no serious side effects and the disease does not become worse, participants may keep taking lenalidomide at lower doses for up to 12 more cycles.

This multi-center, open-label, Phase 1b study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of RO5045337 in combination with cytarabine in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia. In Arm A, cohorts of previously untreated patients deemed unsuitable for standard induction therapy will receive escalating oral doses of RO5045377 and cytarabine 20 mg/m2 subcutaneously daily for Days 1 to 10 of each 28-day cycle. In Arm B, cohorts of patients who have relapsed or are refractory after at least one cytarabine/anthracycline containing regimen will receive escalating oral doses of RO5045377 on Days 1 to 5 and cytarabine 1 gm/m2 intravenously on Days 1 to 6 of each 28-day cycle. Patients will receive up to 4 cycles of therapy, patients in Arm A who achieve hematologic response may continue additional cycles until disease progression.
