Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

The main task of this study includes analyses of the BCR-ABL1 (breakpoint cluster region/Abelson) gene and mutations in the BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase domain within flow-sorted stem cells from the bone marrow and/or peripheral blood specimens. To assess the germline configuration of the patient, DNA from fingernail clippings will be investigated.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common hematological malignancies in adult patients with leukemia, and t(8;21) AML accounts for a substantial proportion of AML. AML patients with t(8;21) possess a favorable outcome and 3 - 4 course high dose cytarabine (3 g/m2) is the standard consolidation therapy for these patients with a 5-year overall survival approximately 60%. In China, intermediate dose cytarabine (1 - 2 g/m2) is used for consolidation therapy due to toxicities. After 3 - 4 course cytarabine consolidation, maintenance therapy is performed with conventional chemotherapy with a 5-year overall survival approximately 60% as well. However, continuous chemotherapy may cause toxicities and inhibit patients' immune response. Exploring new drug for maintenance therapy is urgently needed. Decitabine has a potent ability to inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of AML1-ETO positive leukemia cell line. Furthermore, the immunomodulatory effect of decitabine was also reported by several studies. In this study, the investigators plan to carry out a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trail to compare decitabine versus conventional chemotherapy for maintenance therapy of patients with AML with t(8;21). Results of this trial may optimize the treatment for AML patients with t(8;21) in the setting of intermediate dose cytarabine consolidation.

This observational study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Venetoclax used in routine clinical practice for participants diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

This pilot clinical trial studies whether using high throughput drug sensitivity and genomics data is feasible in developing individualized treatment in patients with multiple myeloma or plasma cell leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. High throughput screen tests many different drugs that kill multiple myeloma cells in individual chambers at the same time. Matching a drug or drug combination to a patient using high throughput screen and genetic information may improve the ability to help patients by choosing drugs that work well for their disease.

To the best of our knowledge, BELUGA will be the first prospective trial investigating the usefulness of deep learning-based hematologic diagnostic algorithms. Taking advantage of an unprecedented collection of diagnostic samples consisting of flow cytometry datapoints and digitalized blood-smears, categorization of yet undiagnosed patient samples will prospectively be compared to current state-of-the-art diagnosis at the Munich Leukemia Laboratory (hereafter MLL). In total, a collection of 25,000 digitalized blood smears and 25,000 flow cytometry datapoints will be prospectively used to train an AI-based deep neuronal network for correct categorization. Subsequently, the superiority will be challenged for the primary endpoints: sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis, most probable diagnosis, and time to diagnose. The secondary endpoints will compare the consequences regarding further diagnostic work-up and, thus, clinical decision making between routine diagnosis and AI guided diagnostics. BELUGA will set the stage for the introduction of AI-based hematologic diagnostics in a real-world setting.

Combining the results of previous studies and based on the clinical practice in our center, we designed the Venetoclax in combination with 3days-Decitabine regimen for induction therapy in elderly or unfit AML patients with a primary diagnosis, and set Venetoclax in combination with Azacitidine (VIALE-A) as a control group to compare the efficacy and safety and to provide evidence for the optimal selection of the clinical treatment regimen. PRIMARY ENDPOINT: To assess whether Venetoclax in combination with 3 days-diascitabine versus standard dose Venetoclax in combination with azacitidine improves event-free survival (EFS) in elderly or adult patients with unfit AML during the maximum follow-up period. Event-free survival was defined as the absence of events such as treatment failure, intolerance withdrawal, all-cause death, or achievement of CR or CRi, or relapse after MLFS, whichever occurred first, between patients' randomization and the maximum follow-up period. Treatment failure was defined as failure to achieve CR or CRi, MLFS after 2 courses of induction therapy.

This is a single-center, nonrandomized, open-label dose-escalation study followed by dose-expansion of CD19- CD34t metabolically programmed CAR T-cell therapy in adult patients with relapsed or refractory CD19 B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

This study aimed to evaluate the safety,tolerability and preliminary efficacy of QLF32101 administered intravenously and subcutaneously in patients with R/R, AML.

It is hypothesized that significantly more patients would prefer oral decitabine/cedazuridine to subcutaneous (SC) azacitidine (AZA) due to several factors, including improved treatment convenience, the reduced risk of nosocomial infections, and reduced treatment discomfort. However, this hypothesis has not been formally studied in a controlled setting. This study aims to address this evidence gap and evaluate patient, primary caregiver (carer), and clinician treatment preference between oral decitabine/cedazuridine and SC AZA in the treatment of adult patients with International Prognostic Scoring System-Revised (IPSS-R) intermediate, IPSS intermediate-2, or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or low-blast (LB) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and thereby lend further credibility to the clinical, economic, and patient value of oral decitabine/cedazuridine.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of ADCLEC.syn1 CAR T cells in people with relapsed or refractory AML. The researchers will try to find the highest dose of ADCLEC.syn1 CAR T cells that causes few or mild side effects in participants. Once the researchers find this dose, it will test it in a new group of participants to see if it is effective in treating their relapsed/refractory AML.
