Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

This is a single-center,single-arm,open-label phase I clinical study to determine the safety and efficacy of LILRB4 STAR-T cells in Monocytic Leukemia subjects.

Introduction: Annually 400,000 children are diagnosed with cancer in the world. Approximately 90% live in low/middle-income countries, with survival rates of 10-30%. In Mexico, children and adolescents' hospital admissions for cancer are mainly leukemias (46%), being acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) the most common. Half of ALL patients have an altered nutritional status at the time of diagnosis. Nutritional assessment is performed using conventional anthropometric measures, which are not sensitive to changes in fat-free mass and fat mass (FFM and FFM). Our objective is to evaluate the effect of an individualized food-based nutritional intervention according to the nutritional status, body composition and comorbidities in pediatric patients with ALL. This is a pre-test/post-test clinical trial. Children 2-14 y olds diagnosed with ALL and in the remission stage (4-6 weeks post-diagnosis) will participate. The nutritional status will be evaluated using questionnaires and body composition. The intervention will be a 6 mo individualized food-based nutrition plan changing meal plans every 2 wk; every plan provides 5 interchangeable meals, adapting to personal preferences and symptoms related to antineoplastic treatment (nausea, diarrhea, taste alteration, etc.). For hospitalized patients, the options offered by the hospital will be evaluated and adapted to the nutritional intervention. Effectiveness of the intervention will be assessed using a paired test dependant on the distribution of the data.

Venetoclax is a treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the pharmacokinetic data in Chinese population, as well as the change of venetoclax plasma concentration while taking CYP enzyme inducers or inhibitors, remained unknown so far. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of venetoclax.

The investigators have recently demonstrated the strong impact in terms of survivals of Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (FL) levels evaluated during intensive induction in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Indeed, three FL kinetic profiles were delineated: i) sustained increase of FL concentrations between day (D) 1 and D22 (FLI group, n=26, good-risk), ii) increase from D1 to D15, then decrease at D22 (FLD group, n=22, intermediate-risk) and iii) stagnation of low levels (<1000 pg/mL, FLL group, n=14, high-risk). However, with longer follow-up, the investigators have observed that FLI and FLD shared similar outcomes while FLL sub-group kept a very bad prognostic. Because serum samples from this previous study (called the FLAM/FLAL study) had been frozen-stored, the investigators were able to conduct an ancillary study assessing the potential impact of the kinetics of 6 other cytokines: TNFalpha, stem-cell factor, IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-10 and granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF).. Only Il-6 level at D22 (< or >15.5 pg/mL) was associated with outcome allowing to distinguish between higher and lower survivals within the combined FLI/FLD sub-group. A new prognostic risk-stratification can thus be proposed as follows: FLI/FLD with IL-6 <15.5 pg/mL (favorable), FLI/FLD with IL-6 >15.5 pg/mL (intermediate) and FLL (high-risk). The aim of this new FLAMVAL study is to validate prospectively in a larger and independent cohort this prognostic risk-stratification i.e. that kinetic profile of FLT3L plasma level from D1 to D22 and Il6 plasma level at day 22 during induction of AML patients are predictive of overall and disease free survivals. For that purpose, 201 newly diagnosed AML patients treated intensively in the 25 centres of the French Innovative Leukemia Organisation (FILO) will be included in the FLAMVAL study.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety profile of TKI discontinuation in clinical practice, with particular regard on the risk of progression after treatment discontinuation.

Introduction of immuno-chemotherapy in the treatment options of CLL and SLL changed the treatment paradigm of these diseases. Presently, first-line therapies for CLL/SLL include targeted therapies (e.g. ibrutinib, acalabrutinib) or combined immuno-chemotherapy regimens (e.g., fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab for patients aged <65 years without del17p/TP53 mutations or bendamustine and rituximab for patients ≥65 years who have additional comorbidities). Despite the gradual introduction of targeted therapies, new treatment strategies efficacious for patients ineligible for/unresponsive to these therapies are still required. These new strategies should ideally overcome disease relapse and circumvent compound-specific safety challenges. Emerging treatment options include new compounds aimed for both untreated and relapsed/refractory CLL, and combination therapies of existing compounds that extend single-agent efficacy in specific high-risk patient populations. CAP-100 is expected to prevent the migration of leukemia cells to and their survival in lymphoid niches as well as to eliminate CCR7-positive leukemia cells via ADCC, resulting in measurable clinical responses. The present trial is the first-in-human trial of CAP-100 and is divided into two phases. The aim of the Phase Ia (dose escalation) is to define the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) versus the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CAP-100 in subjects with CLL. Phase Ib of the trial (expansion phase) will evaluate the safety and preliminary clinical benefit of CAP-100 monotherapy at RP2D (response rate, lymph node size reduction, assessment of minimal residual disease [MRD]) to support the design of future trials investigating CAP-100 either as monotherapy or in a combination setting with approved treatments for CLL.

To investigate limited course of treatment of Zebutinib combined with immunochemotherapy for patients with newly treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia without 17p-/TP53 mutation

Multicenter single arm study to assess the safety and efficacy of allogeneic transplantation using cryopreserved bone marrow from deceased MMUD and PTCy, sirolimus and MMF for GVHD prophylaxis.

This is a multicenter, observational real world clinical trial with prospective follow up that will evaluate the treatment outcome of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients in the first line with intensive chemotherapy based regimens in Argentina.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is an aggressive and rare cancer of myeloid cells (a white blood cell responsible for fighting infections). This study will assess how safe and effective oral venetoclax is in participants with AML . Adverse events and change in disease activity will be monitored under routine clinical practice. Venetoclax is an approved drug for treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). Around 600 participants of age 19 years and above will be enrolled in the study in multiple medical institutions across South Korea. Participants will receive oral venetoclax tablets as prescribed by their physician in the routine clinical practice. Participants will be observed for 7 cycles ( each cycle is 28 days). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
