Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

This phase II trial studies how well azacitidine and venetoclax work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is in remission. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine and venetoclax, 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.

This study is being done to evaluate the safety, tolerability and antitumor activity of oral CG-806 (luxeptinib) for the treatment of patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (except APML), secondary AML, therapy-related AML, or higher-risk MDS, whose disease has relapsed, is refractory or who are ineligible for or intolerant of intensive chemotherapy or transplantation.

This is a first-in-human, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study of UCART22 administered intravenously to patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of UCART22 and determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)

In the early years of life and during adolescence, physical activity is crucial for good development of motor skills. It is even more so for those children and young people who are forced to undergo anti-cancer therapies and therefore undergo long periods of hospitalization (often bedridden) and prolonged periods of physical inactivity. The research project "Sport Therapy" was born with the aim of demonstrating that, through targeted physical activity administered by the sports physician in collaboration with the pediatrician hematologist, it is possible to facilitate the full recovery of these patients, avoiding the high risk of chronic diseases related to a sedentary lifestyle and allowing them to better reintegrate, once healed, in their community of origin (school, sport and social relations). The research project "Sport Therapy" was born within the Maria Letizia Verga Center at the Pediatric Clinic of the University of Milan Bicocca, at the Foundation for the Mother and Her Child, San Gerardo Hospital in Monza. Every year, around 80 children and adolescents with leukemia, lymphoma or blood disorders leading to bone marrow transplantation are treated here.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of gilteritinib and to see how well it works in combination with azacitidine and venetoclax in treating patients with FLT3-mutation positive acute myeloid leukemia, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as azacitidine, 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. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Gilteritinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving azacitidine, venetoclax, and gilteritinib may work better compared to azacitidine and venetoclax alone in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm.

This phase II trial studies how well venetoclax and azacitidine work for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia after stem cell transplantation. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking BCL-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Chemotherapy drugs, such as azacitidine, 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 venetoclax and azacitidine after a stem cell transplant may help control high risk leukemia and prevent it from coming back after the transplant.

NTX-301 is a DNMT1 inhibitor. The drug is an oral drug with preclinical data that has shown preclinical anti-leukemic efficacy. This is the first clinical trial using NTX-301 in patients with myeloid malignancies.

With the aging of society, the incidence of elderly leukemia in China has been increasing year by year. The elderly patients with Acute Leukemia have poor basal state, and there are many important organ diseases such as heart, liver and kidney. The incidence of infection and hemorrhage is high in elderly patients after chemotherapy. These characteristics make the treatment of elderly leukemia difficult. So we propose a new treatment plan by using the therapy that rhTPO may promote the leukemia cells into the division cycle.We use the synergistic effect of G-CSF and rhTPO to promote leukemia cells into the division cycle, thereby the cells can be killed by cytotoxic drugs. At the same time, G-CSF and rhTPO are used to promote the growth of granulocytes and platelets, therefore the side effects of treatment of elderly leukemia can be alleviated. We provide a safe and effective chemotherapy for elderly leukemia patients, so that more elderly patients receive chemotherapy,which has important practical significance.

Pre-transplant conditioning will include targeted total marrow irradiation (TMI) at a dose of 6Gy. Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis will include cyclophosphamide 50 mg/kg on Day +3 and 4 along with tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with usual combination chemotherapy (etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate [Oncovin], cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride [hydroxydaunorubicin hydrochloride], or "EPOCH") in treating adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma. Lenalidomide may help shrink or slow the growth of adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin, 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. Anti-inflammatory drugs such as prednisone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Giving lenalidomide and the usual combination chemotherapy may work better in treating adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma compared to the usual combination chemotherapy alone.
