Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive"

This is a phase II efficacy (indicates the capacity for beneficial change or therapeutic effect) and safety study of Dasatinib in patients with relapsed Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) following a Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) and who are not benefiting from other treatment, such as imatinib therapy. A relapse is when an illness that has seemed to be getting better, or to have been cured, comes back or gets worse again. A total of 50 patients ≥18 years of age will be registered on the trial.

This is a pilot study designed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of performing umbilical cord blood transplants in adults with high-risk hematopoietic malignancies. A novel myeloablative preparative regimen will be used. One, up to a maximum of three cord blood units will be administered to facilitate engraftment.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of the BCR-ABL inhibitor XL228, how often it should be taken, and how well people with leukemia tolerate XL228.

This phase II trial studies how well dasatinib, nilotinib, and imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated chronic myeloid leukemia in which fewer than 10% of the cells in the blood and bone marrow are blast cells (immature blood cells) (chronic phase). Dasatinib, nilotinib, and imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ruxolitinib and to see how well it works in participants with chronic myeloid leukemia with minimal residual disease while on therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Ruxolitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of WEE1 inhibitor AZD1775 and belinostat when given together in treating patients with myeloid malignancies that have returned after a period of improvement or have not responded to previous treatment or patients with untreated acute myeloid leukemia. WEE1 inhibitor AZD1775 and belinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

This study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Imatinib in two groups of patients; all patients should be diagnosed less than 3 months as chronic myeloid leukemia in a chronic phase. The group A, the reference group, will have 10% or less than 10% of the BCR-ABL level after three month dosing and be maintained their dose of 400mg/day. On the other hand, the group B, will have more than 10% and the dose will be increased from 400mg/day to 600mg/day. The superiority of the group B will be proved by evaluating the MMR rate of these two groups after 12 months of administeration of Imatinib.

whether Nilotinib at the two sequential dosage forms will induce quicker and deeper response in those patients, and if FISH on PB (Peripheral blood) would be an effective way to monitor response compared to conventional cytogenetics on bone marrow (BM) sample

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of dasatinib with that of high-dose (800-mg) imatinib in participants with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia who achieved only a suboptimal response after at least 3 months of monotherapy with 400-mg imatinib. The safety of these treatments will also be evaluated.

This phase II trial is studying how well sunitinib works in treating patients with idiopathic myelofibrosis. Sunitinib may stop the growth of abnormal cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the abnormal cells.
