Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

This multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of multi-kinase inhibitor LNK01002 in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), or MF due to polycythemia vera (PV-MF), or essential thrombocythemia (ET-MF), polycythemia vera (PV), or with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

This phase Ib trial evaluates the best dose and effect of glasdegib in combination with venetoclax and decitabine, or gilteritinib, bosutinib, ivosidenib, or enasidenib in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (relapsed) after stem cell transplantation. Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Glasdegib, bosutinib, ivosidenib, and enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Glasdegib inhibits the Sonic the Hedgehog gene. Venetoclax inhibits BCL-2 gene. Bosutinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits BCR-ABL gene fusion. Ivosidenib inhibits isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 gene or IDH-1. Enasidenib inhibits isocitrate dehydrogenase-2 gene or IDH-2. This study involves an individualized approach that may allow doctors and researchers to more accurately predict which treatment plan works best for patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of wee1 kinase inhibitor AZD1775 when given together with fludarabine, cytarabine, and filgrastim (FLAG) combination chemotherapy in treating children, adolescents and young adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Wee1 kinase inhibitor AZD1775 may help combination chemotherapy work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drugs. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cytarabine, may prevent tumor cells from multiplying by damaging their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which in turn stops the tumor from growing. Giving wee1 kinase inhibitor AZD1775 and FLAG chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

This is an open-label, dose-escalating trial to evaluate the MTD and/or dose to be used for further development by evaluation of DLT in course 1 and the safety of volasertib when added to standard intensive salvage chemotherapy with DNX-FLA in paediatric patients with AML after failure of first-line therapy. Furthermore, data on efficacy and PK/PD of volasertib in paediatric patients with AML when added to standard intensive salvage chemotherapy will be collected.

This phase 2 trial studies the side effects and how well midostaurin works in treating older patients with acute myeloid leukemia with change in genetic material post-hematopoietic cell transplantation. Midostaruin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving midostaruin post-transplant may improve patient outcomes.

RATIONALE: Aflibercept may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well aflibercept works in treating patients with advanced refractory, relapsed, or untreated acute myeloid leukemia.

This phase II trial studies how well donor cellular therapy after cytarabine works in treating patients with intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia with a decrease in or disappearance of signs and symptoms of cancer. Donor cellular therapy is a short-term transfusion of cells from a family member who is incompletely matched. The use of these partially matched white blood cells may help improve response to standard chemotherapy (cytarabine) and reduce some of the risks of infection, without a permanent transplant. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving donor cellular therapy after cytarabine may kill more cancer cells.

The stud will evaluate whether infusions of CD45RA-depleted lymphocytes from the donor early post-transplant is a safe way to improve immunity to common infections in recipients of TCR-alpha/beta depleted hematopoietic stem cell grafts.

This study is designed in its first part (phase Ib) to determine the recommended dose of the OTX015 + Vidaza (azacitidine) combination in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia patients not candidate for standard intensive induction therapy. It will be followed by a randomized phase II part to assess the efficacy of the combination using 2 arms : Vidaza (azacitidine) alone vs. OTX015 in combination with Vidaza (azacitidine).

Despite improvements in outcomes after Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), the risk of relapse remains high and is the most common cause of mortality after HCT. Moreover, treatment options for relapse after HCT are limited. Strategies to reduce relapse with maintenance therapy in patients who are at high risk are needed to improve survival. 5-aza is a hypomethylating agent that has shown immune modulating properties that may enhance the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect, including upregulation of tumor-associated antigen and costimulatory molecule expression. Moreover, 5-aza has properties that suggest protection against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) as well. Preliminary data shows that it is well tolerated and effective in clinical use for the treatment of AML or MDS relapse after HCT, as well as for maintenance therapy. This study will evaluate the use of 5-aza for maintenance after HCT in patients with AML or MDS with risk factors that are associated with a high risk for relapse.
