Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Lymphoid"

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if CMC-544 given alone, and possibly given in combination with rituximab, can help to control the disease in patients with ALL. The safety of the study drug(s) will also be studied.

The first goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of BP1001, a liposomal Growth Factor Receptor Bound Protein-2 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (L-Grb2 AS), for patients with Philadelphia Chromosome positive CML, AML, ALL and MDS. The response of the leukemia to this treatment will also be studied. The second goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and toxicity of the combination of BP1001 and concurrent low-dose ara-C (LDAC) in patients with AML.

An open-label phase 1 study to assess safety and efficacy of once-weekly STA-9090 (ganetespib) in subjects with AML, ALL and blast-phase CML.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of different dose regimens of lenalidomide in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

The primary objective is: To determine the efficacy and safety of DepoCyte®, as the only intrathecal (IT) prophylaxis of neuromeningeal relapse for patients between 16 and 30 years old diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia of standard risk treated with the PETHEMA LAL-RI-08 Protocol Chemotherapy schedule. The secondary objectives are: To evaluate the tolerability of IT DepoCyte® as CNS prophylaxis of CNS via IT for patients between 16 and 30 years old with ALL of standard risk. To compare the frequency of relapse in CNS for patients between 16 and 30 years old with standard risk ALL treated with the PETHEMA LAL-RI-08 Protocol Chemotherapy schedule and receiving DepoCyte® as the only IT CNS prophylaxis, with that observed in an historic group of patients of identical risk that were treated with the PETHEMA LAL-RI/96 protocol (same systemic chemotherapy and double administration of triple intrathecal chemotherapy) To evaluate the frequency of systemic relapses of standard risk ALL patients between 16 and 30 years old treated with the PETHEMA LAL-RI-08 Protocol and who receive DepoCyte® as the only IT prophylaxis of CNS involvement and to compare with those observed in the identical risk patients treated with PETHEMA LAL-RI/96 protocol (same systemic chemotherapy and double administration of triple IT chemotherapy)

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) together with rituximab can improve the ability of rituximab to shrink or slow the growth of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). The safety of this combination treatment will also be studied.

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alemtuzumab in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Revlimid (lenalidomide) can help to reduce the level of leukemia in your body. The safety of this drug will also be studied.

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of forodesine in CLL patients

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying the side effects of two combination chemotherapy regimens and to see how well they work in treating children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
