Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of the myeloid line of white blood cells and impaired production of normal blood cells. If untreated, patients die of infection or bleeding usually in a matter of weeks. CSL360 is a neutralising monoclonal antibody which is believed to target the cells that are thought to drive AML but that are not effectively killed by standard treatment. The aims of the study are to determine a biologically active dose of CSL360 and generate understanding of a rational schedule of administration for future studies.

This study is a phase I/II study to determine the safety and efficacy of AMD3100 when combined with mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine in patients with relapsed or refractory AML. We hypothesize that disrupting the interaction between AML blasts and the marrow microenvironment with AMD3100 may enhance the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapy.

This study is designed to test the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide in older patients (age > 60 years) with untreated acute myeloid leukemia without chromosomal abnormalities involving 5q.

This study is designed to evaluate the combination of LBH589 and decitabine in patients age ≥ 60 years with high risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (IPSS Int-2 or High) or Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

This study will evaluate the overall remission rate of treatment with vosaroxin (formerly voreloxin) Injection in patients at least 60 years of age with previously untreated AML

The study will determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of panobinostat administered in combination with a fixed combination of cytarabine (ara-C) and mitoxantrone in adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

This randomized phase II trial is comparing three different combination chemotherapy regimens to see how well they work in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and efficacy of a novel form of therapy-haploidentical NK cell transplantation-in patients with standard-risk AML. In addition, we will investigate the efficacy of clofarabine + cytarabine (Clo/AraC) in newly diagnosed patients with AML and attempt to optimize outcome through the use of MRD-adapted therapy and further improvements in supportive care.

The purpose of this study is to determine the dose that can be safely given to see what effect it may have on your cancer and to determine how the drug is distributed in the body.

Objectives: To evaluate disease free survival after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies. To evaluate the incidence and severity of acute and chronic GVHD after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion, in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing non-myelo-ablative stem cell transplantation. To evaluate engraftment and chimerism after Campath 1H-based in vivo T-cell depletion and non-myelo-ablative ablative stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies.
