Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

This is a single-center open-label phase I clinical trial of delivering haploidentical natural killer (NK) cells matured ex vivo with ALT-801 followed by intravenous infusions of ALT-801 in patients with relapsed/refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The study will be conducted at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) and MDACC Children's Cancer Hospital in Houston, Texas.

The investigators' objective is to assess the efficacy of the combined treatment with enalapril and carvedilol in the prevention of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with hematological malignancies submitted to intensive chemotherapy with potential cardiotoxicity. The hypothesis is that these drugs administered during chemotherapy may prevent left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of combined chemotherapy treatment (CLAG regimen) with Imatinib Mesylate (Gleevec) in patients with AML.

The purpose of this study is: to explore the potential for different dosing strategies of posaconazole oral suspension (POS) to increase plasma levels and to profile the pharmacokinetics of these dosing strategies in patients with compromised gastrointestinal function and at high risk for Invasive Fungal Infection.

This is a Phase 2, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ficlatuzumab in combination with high-dose cytarabine (HiDAC) and HiDAC alone in subjects with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

Patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) will receive lymphodepleting chemotherapy (Flu/Cy) and two infusions of cytokine-induced memory-like NK cells at the previously defined maximum tolerated dose (MTD), fourteen days apart. Low dose rhIL-2 will be administered to patients for in vivo expansion following cell infusion. Patients will be assessed for anti-leukemic efficacy and safety. Re-infusion of patients who relapsed after clinical response will be considered.

This is a phase 2 randomized controlled trial of pre-chemotherapy periodontal deep cleaning in Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) patients with asymptomatic periodontitis. Once eligibility is confirmed, participants with periodontitis will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to undergo treatment by scaling and root planing (SRP, "deep cleaning") (arm A) or receive no periodontal treatment (arm B). We will compare the incidence of Blood Stream Infection (BSI) during chemotherapy between the two arms. Study participation will continue until day 28 of chemotherapy or discharge from hospital, whichever occurs first.

This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of FT-2102 when given together with ASTX727 in treating patients with IDH1-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). ASTX727 is an oral deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor. DNA methylation is necessary for cell differentiation and development. Changes to the methylation profile can lead to DNA instability which can cause diseases like cancer. DNMT inhibitors target and inhibit these changes. FT-2102 is an isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) inhibitor. IDH1 is a type of protein involved in metabolism, or the process of providing the body's cells with energy. FT-2102 may stop the abnormal IDH1 protein and may reduce 2-HG levels in diseased cells to levels found in normal cells. Giving ASTX727 and FT-2102 may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia compared to ASTX727 and FT-2102 alone.

This phase II trial studies how well 3 different drug combinations prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) after donor stem cell transplant. Calcineurin inhibitors, such as cyclosporine and tacrolimus, may stop the activity of donor cells that can cause GVHD. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cyclophosphamide and methotrexate, may also stop the donor cells that can lead to GVHD while not affecting the cancer-fighting donor cells. Immunosuppressive therapy, such as anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), is used to decrease the body's immune response and reduces the risk of GVHD. It is not yet known which combination of drugs: 1) ATG, methotrexate, and calcineurin inhibitor 2) cyclophosphamide and calcineurin inhibitor, or 3) methotrexate and calcineurin inhibitor may work best to prevent graft versus host disease and result in best overall outcome after donor stem cell transplant.

This is an open label, single arm study of midostaurin in patients with relapsed or refractory AML.
