Active clinical trials for "Myelodysplastic Syndromes"

This phase Ib/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of avelumab when given together with azacitidine and to see how well they work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is not responding to treatment or has come back. Monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Azacitidine may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving avelumab and azacitidine may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

This is a Phase I/II, open-label, 2 arm study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of GSK2879552 alone, or in combination with azacitidine in subjects with MDS. The study consisted of 2 parts. The objective of Part 1 is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of GSK2879552 administered alone and in combination with azacitidine in adult subjects with high risk MDS previously treated with HMA. The objective of Part 2 is to evaluate clinical activity after treatment with GSK2879552, alone or in combination with azacitidine, in adult subjects with high risk MDS previously treated with HMA.

This trial studies the side effects of recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein when given together with azacitidine or decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or has not responded to previous treatment with a hypomethylating agent. Recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hypomethylating agents, such as azacitidine and decitabine, slow down genes that promote cell growth and can kill cells that are dividing rapidly. Giving recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein together with azacitidine or decitabine may work better in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or acute myeloid leukemia.

[Updated]: To assess the safety and tolerability of ONO-7475 monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndromes and to assess: i) safety and tolerability and ii) preliminary efficacy of the combination of ONO-7475 and venetoclax in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

The purpose of this First-in-Human Phase 1 study is to determine if AMG 330 given as a continuous IV infusion is safe and tolerable in adult subjects that have myeloid malignancies, and to determine the maximum tolerated dose and/or a biologically active dose. The study will be conducted in multiple sites and test increasing doses of AMG 330. The safety of subjects will be monitored by intensive assessment of vital signs, electrocardiograms, physical examinations, and laboratory tests.

The objectives of this trial are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of volasertib in two dosing schedules of intravenous volasertib as monotherapy or in combination with azacitidine in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) after hypomethylating agents (HMA) treatment failure.

The goal of this clinical research study is to determine the effectiveness of alemtuzumab in patients with aplastic anemia, MDS, or T-Cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia. The safety of alemtuzumab will also be studied.

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) PET imaging, may help find and diagnose cancer. It may also help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying FLT PET imaging in patients with cancer.

RATIONALE: Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the safety of donor umbilical cord blood transplant after fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer (now closed). The Phase II part of this trial is studying whether priming one of two UCB units with C3a facilitates engraftment of the treated unit.

The primary purpose is to determine the ability of CD34+ selection and T cell depletion using the CliniMACS® device to prevent severe acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients receiving a stem cell transplant from an alternative (unrelated and mismatched related) donor. The secondary objectives include evaluation of engraftment, immune recovery, and post-transplant infections. Patients requiring stem cell transplants for either malignant (cancerous) or non-malignant disease will be included in the study. The recipients will be grouped into one of two groups based on whether the donor is mismatched related (Cohort A) or unrelated (Cohort B). The patient will receive a conditioning regimen including chemotherapy drugs and/or total body irradiation based on the disease for which the transplant is performed.
