Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

Phase III Study of Priming with Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (rhu-GM-CSF) and ofThree Induction Regimens in Adult Patients (Over 55) with Acute Non-Lymphocytic Leukemia

Treatment of patients with WHO defined IPSS int 2 and high risk MDS , AML with 20-30% marrow blasts and CMML type 2, after failure of azacitidine or decitabine exposure for at least 6 courses, or relapse after initial response.

CWP232291 blocks proliferation of cancer cells via activation of caspases. Active caspase have been shown to target beta-catenin, the hallmark of canonical Wnt signaling, for degradation through caspase-directed cleavage. CWP232291 targets beta-catenin for degradation and thereby inhibits the expression of cell cycle and anti-apoptotic genes such as cyclin D1 and survivin.

This is a Phase Ib/IIa open-labeled multi-center trial evaluating the feasibility of dasatinib given after standard induction therapy with daunorubicin (DNR) and cytarabine (ARA-C), after consolidation therapy with high-dose cytarabine (HDAC), and as single agent in a one-year maintenance therapy in patients with newly diagnosed CBF AML. 82 patients with newly diagnosed CBF AML will be enrolled at AMLSG study centers. All AML patients will be assessed for the CBF fusion genes via the central laboratory of the AMLSG within 48 hours of diagnosis of AML, and only patients with CBF AML will be enrolled into the study.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the rate of complete remission, as well as overall survival, in older patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide can stop the growth of leukemia stem cells and can be used to prevent the return of leukemia cells after a transplant.

Evaluate the role of high dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation for AML.

Single Arm-Studies suggest improved remission and survival rates for a Protocol with Mitoxantron 10mg/m2 for 3 days combined with AraC 1g/m2 bid on days 1+3+5+7 compared to a conventional DA 7+3 protocol (45mg/m2 Daunorubicin).

Patients who have acute myeloid leukemia and will undergo haplo-identical donor hematopoeitic cell transplantation (haplo HCT) are potential candidates of this trial. Participants will randomized into two arms: Arm A will undergo a typical haplo HCT, while Arm B will receive an coinfusion of an unrelated cord blood unit (haplo-cord HCT) in addition to Arm A. Progression-free survival, overall survival, cumulative incidence of relapse and nonrelapse mortality will be recorded as endpoints.

A Disintegrin-like And Metalloprotease with Thrombospondin type 1 motif 13 (ADAMTS13) deficiency was incriminated in poor prognosis, high probability of serious complications and mortality in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Interleukin 6 (IL-6) produced from AML blasts decreases Cluster of differentiation 34 positive(CD34+) cells differentiation, and inhibits the ADAMTS13 actions. Vitamin D "as an Immune-modulator" inhibits the pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-6. So, supplementation of vitamin D might help down regulation of interleukin-6 production. Aim of the study To evaluate the potential relation between Vitamin D status, ADAMTS13 and IL-6 in AML patients. Objectives Assess Vitamin D level in AML patients Assess ADAMTS13 and IL-6 in AML patients Correlate between Vitamin D level and both of ADAMTS13 and IL-6
