Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

Primary Objective: To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of CMA-676 as part of an intensive but nonmyeloablative preparative regimen in older or medically infirm patients undergoing mini-allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation Secondary Objectives: To evaluate response rates, engraftment kinetics and degree of chimerism achievable with this strategy. To evaluate disease-free and overall survival and relapse rates. To evaluate the need and ability to give multiple cycles of Mylotarg plus FA and mobilized DLI in patients not achieving complete remission.

RATIONALE: Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of cancer cells. Colony-stimulating factors such as sargramostim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of therapy. Combining sargramostim with interferon alfa may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of sargramostim in treating patients who are receiving interferon alfa for chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia that is in remission.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of methotrexate with or without cyclophosphamide in treating patients who have lymphocytic leukemia with neutropenia or anemia.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of arsenic trioxide in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia or chronic myelogenous leukemia.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of milademetan tosylate and to see how well it works with cytarabine with or without ventoclax in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back (recurrent) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Milademetan tosylate and ventoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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. It is not yet known if giving milademetan tosylate and low-dose cytarabine with or without ventoclax will work better in treating participants with recurrent or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

This is an open label study to assess the safety and efficacy of CPX-351 in combination with gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) as first intensive therapy in older (age >55 years) subjects with newly diagnosed AML who are eligible for intensive induction chemotherapy, or AML subjects who previously failed low-intensity therapy but who would be eligible for high-intensity chemotherapy, with companion cognitive function testing to determine whether this contributes to outcome in these subjects. Subjects may have received prior AML treatment with non-intensive regimens, e.g. hypomethylating agents, low-dose cytarabine, or lenalidomide or a clinical trial drug in combination with hypomethylating agents or low-dose cytarabine, but may not have received intensive AML treatment with anthracyclines and/or infusional cytarabine prior to enrollment on this trial. Subjects may not have been treated with GO or other antibody targeting CD 33 prior to enrollment on this trial. The cohort will include 30 subjects treated with the combination of CPX-351 and GO and is designed to establish the safety and feasibility of the combination. These subjects will be assessed for efficacy and safety. Quality of life will be assessed using the FACT-LEU in all subjects. Cognitive function will be assessed using the Blessed Orientation-Memory-Concentration Test and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.

The MAURITIUS trial is a single-arm, multicenter phase II study of single treatment with midostaurin being applied to AML (acute myeloid leukemia) patients with activating FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase3) mutations and either molecular relapse or persistent molecular positivity after allogeneic SCT. The leukemia-free survival (LFS), the achievement of "MRD low" as well as the incidence of GvHD after transplantation reflect the most relevant endpoints of this non-randomized clinical trial.

This is an open-label, non-randomized, Phase 1b study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles, and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of PTC299 and the metabolite, O-desmethyl PTC299, in participants with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have exhausted standard available therapies known to provide clinical benefit. The study is designed as a series of cohort-based dose escalations. For each cohort, a minimum of 3 evaluable participants with PK and safety data will be assessed. Additional participants will be recruited if additional PK data are needed to assess mean exposure based on the observed variability.

ULTRA-V: Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Ublituximab in Combination with Umbralisib and Venetoclax (U2-V) Compared to Ublituximab and Umbralisib (U2) in Subjects with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

This study will include patients suffering from chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML), who were treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI, a substance that blocks the action of enzymes) in a previous therapy but which has not been effective. Patients will be treated with Ponatinib 30 mg in in this study. The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ponatinib as a second line treatment in patients failing or not tolerating first line therapy with any other approved TKIs. It is expected that Ponatinib, due to its efficacy, may be more effective as second line therapy than other approved TKIs and lead to improved overall survival. The effect will be determined by the molecular response rate (MMR) as the primary objective after 12 months of treatment. The safety of the drug will be evaluated on the basis if routine medical and laboratory examinations.
