Active clinical trials for "Leukopenia"

The purpose of this trial is to study the safety and effectiveness of a drug called Bortezomib for the treatment of low blood cell counts after bone marrow transplant.

To assess the safety and efficacy of subcutaneously administered sargramostim ( granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor; GM-CSF ) in increasing and maintaining the neutrophil count in HIV-infected adults who have developed neutropenia as a result of receiving the antiretroviral agent, zidovudine ( AZT ). To assess the safety and efficacy of subcutaneously administered GM-CSF in increasing and maintaining the neutrophil count in HIV-infected adults with pre-existing neutropenia who are at high risk of developing hematologic intolerance while receiving the antiretroviral agent, AZT, for the first time. To assess the potential therapeutic benefit of concomitant GM-CSF and AZT on the natural history of HIV infection and associated infectious complications.

To evaluate the safety of repeated courses of sargramostim ( recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor; GM-CSF ) administered subcutaneously to patients with HIV infection and leukopenia. To determine if administration of GM-CSF will prevent some or all of the hematologic toxicity associated with zidovudine ( AZT ) treatment in patients with pre-existing leukopenia. To assess any clinical and/or virologic benefits from administering alternating weeks of GM-CSF and AZT to patients with symptomatic HIV infection who have a history of cytologically confirmed Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia ( PCP ) or a circulating absolute CD4 lymphocyte count less than 200 cells/mm3.

This phase I trial studies pretargeted radioimmunotherapy and donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant employing fludarabine phosphate and total-body irradiation (TBI) to treat patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate, and TBI before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can be combined with fludarabine phosphate and TBI to find cancer cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Pretargeted radioimmunotherapy (PRIT) allows for further improved targeting of tumor cells over standard directly labeled antibodies.

To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and toxicity of sargramostim (recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor; GM-CSF) given by continuous intravenous infusion (CIV) in patients with leukopenia in association with AIDS virus infection. In addition, single dose and steady state pharmacokinetics will also be determined.

A randomized, open label parallel controlled, multicenter study to evaluate safety and efficacy of Posaconazole oral suspension vs Fluconazole (capsule) in high-risk leukopenic patients for prevention of invasive fungal infection

The purpose of this prospective, randomized study was to determine the efficacy of low bacterial diet, in comparison to normal hospital diet, with gut colonization by aerobic Gram negative rods and yeasts as primary endpoint. In addition, the occurrence of infections and the total costs of hospital care were documented, in order to identify potential cost savings by the use of either diet.

This is a study comparing two study drugs, Filgrastim Hospira and Neupogen®. Neupogen® is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat low numbers of specific kinds of white blood cells (WBC) known as neutrophils. This type of white cell is important in fighting infections. A low neutrophil count is known as neutropenia. Both drugs work by increasing the number of neutrophils that are produced in the body. This is important for patients who have low neutrophils due to chemotherapy, other treatments such as bone marrow transplant or certain other conditions with symptoms/problems related to low neutrophil counts. The main aim of the study is to test how Filgrastim Hospira works in the body compared to Neupogen®.

The purpose of this study is to study the efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) on anaemic and cytopenic haematological disorders including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), aplastic anaemia (AA), myelofibrosis (MF) and thalassemia intermedia who do not have or did not respond to available treatment options.
