Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

The purpose of this study is to provide decitabine to patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) who have completed participation per protocol in the DACO-018 study.

This study is a phase II randomized multicenter study. Patients will be enrolled at time of diagnosis and will receive one or two cycles of induction chemotherapy. Patients, without indication of intensification by allogeneic stem cell transplantation and/or without HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen)-compatible donor, who attain a CR after one or two cycles of induction chemotherapy, will be eligible for the study Clofarabine / Intermediate-Dose Cytarabine (CLARA)versus High-Dose Cytarabine (HDAC)and will be randomized between 3 courses of CLARA chemotherapy and 3 courses of HDAC chemotherapy as consolidation. We will compare efficacy and toxicity among the two arms.

This clinical trial is studying how well giving fludarabine phosphate and melphalan together with total-body irradiation followed by donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematologic cancer or bone marrow failure disorders. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells or abnormal cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer or abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect)

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of the combination of decitabine given at a fixed dose with escalating doses of rapamycin in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

The main purpose of this trial is to study whether the drug sitagliptin can be given safely to patients undergoing umbilical cord blood transplantation to speed up engraftment (recovery of blood counts after transplant).

The purpose of this research study is to determine if plerixafor can make cells more sensitive to killing by cytarabine and daunorubicin, an anti-cancer drug regimen referred to as "7+3" that is commonly used in treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In this study, plerixafor is used with treatments cytarabine and daunorubicin and with and without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (GCSF). Subjects will be monitored to see how well they tolerate the use of these drugs together and how well they work to treat the leukemia. The purpose of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) per plerixafor dosing schedule (once daily [QD] or twice daily [BID]), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), by assessing safety and tolerability of plerixafor (Mozobil®) when used in combination with cytarabine and daunorubicin, and with and without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)

Our purpose in this study is to explore the feasibility of treatment of non promyelocytic Acute myeloid leukaemia on elderly patients. We select ten patients with age further than 60 with comorbidity and treat by low dose cytosar subcutaneous plus arsenic trioxide for ten days in month. We will assess overall response rate and overall survival in end of one year.

An open-label, non-randomized, multi-centre, Phase I/II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of 2 schedules of PXD101 in combination with idarubicin in patients with AML not suitable for standard intensive therapy.

The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effectiveness of receiving a combination of ondansetron and aprepitant to receiving ondansetron alone in helping to prevent nausea and/or vomiting in patients with Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who are receiving cytarabine. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

Determine toxicity and remission rates of treatment with azacitidine and lenalidomide for patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
