Active clinical trials for "Myelodysplastic Syndromes"

The purpose of this study is to assess the benefit of lonafarnib (versus placebo) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Benefit will be measured by achievement of platelet transfusion independence for at least 8-consecutive weeks, and without simultaneous worsening of hemoglobin and/or need for red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. Additional endpoints will be hematologic response (which includes complete remission, partial remission, hematologic improvement), number of RBC transfusions, bleeding events, infections and safety.

To study if decitabine can help to control Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) in patients who have failed on therapy with azacytidine, the current standard of therapy.

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that a pre-infusion preparative regimen of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine will improve the effectiveness of DLI in patients with blood cancers.

Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia or Myelodysplastic are able to achieve a complete remission but fail to achieve a prolonged disease-free survival. High dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation has been shown to be effective in this group of patients but hematopoietic recovery is slow, and infectious or bleeding complications are common. The delay in hematopoietic recover is accentuated by the use of purging techniques. This is a novel purging approach for autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia or Myelodysplastic syndrome to allow for rapid engraftment with a lower relapse rate therefore improving the therapeutic outcomes

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes or acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

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.

This study compares the safety and effectiveness of giving rivogenlecleucel (BPX-501 T cells) to patients with AML or MDS post haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant compared to post-transplant cyclophosphamide.

A phase II study testing the efficacy of combined AZD1775 with AraC or single agent activity of AZD1775 in three arms: Arm A has subjects age 60 years or older who are newly diagnosed with AML receiving the combination of the drugs; Arm B has subjects who are have relapsed/refractory AML and HMA failure MDS patients being allocated to either the combination Arm B or single agent AZD1775 Arm C.

This phase I/II trial studies how well Jaktinib and azacytidine work in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes with myelofibrosis or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm with myelofibrosis. Giving Jaktinib and azacytidine may be an effective treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes with myelofibrosis or myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm with myelofibrosis.

This research study is designed to selectively deplete CD117-positive cells from participants with AML and MDS-EB.
