Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether addition of AS101 to the standard chemotherapy regimen is effective in the treatment of newly diagnosed elderly (≥60) AML patients and AML transformed myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients.

To document therapeutic gain achieved by cyclic application of L-ascorbic acid (LAA) supplementation and depletion, while confirming safety and avoidance of clinically significant scurvy, in chemorefractory patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of 18F-FDG PET probe signal in de novo diagnosed or refractory/relapsed patients with acute myeloid leukemia. It is hypothesized that the intensity of 18F-FDG signal, an indicator of glucose uptake capacity, in various cell subsets of bone marrow will improve the predictive effect of clinical standard prognostic work-up.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of 211^astatine(At)-BC8-B10 before donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or mixed-phenotype acute leukemia. Radioactive substances, such as astatine-211, linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as BC8, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells and have less of an effect on healthy cells before donor stem cell transplant.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CD4+ and CD8+ HA-1 T cell receptor (TCR) (HA-1 T TCR) T cells in treating patients with acute leukemia that persists, has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) following donor stem cell transplant. T cell receptor is a special protein on T cells that helps them recognize proteins on other cells including leukemia. HA-1 is a protein that is present on the surface of some peoples' blood cells, including leukemia. HA-1 T cell immunotherapy enables genes to be added to the donor cells to make them recognize HA-1 markers on leukemia cells.

The study is to evaluate safety, tolerability and composite CR of IBI188 plus Demethylating Agents in acute myeloid leukemia

This phase II/III trial studies how well daunorubicin and cytarabine with or without uproleselan works in treating older adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia receiving intensive induction chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as daunorubicin and cytarabine, 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. Uproleselan may prevent cancer from returning or getting worse. Giving daunorubicin and cytarabine with uproleselan may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia compared to daunorubicin and cytarabine alone.

Neutropenia after induction or consolidation therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients is associated with a high morbi-mortality rates, especially due to infectious complications. These are managed according to international recommandations (ECIL and IDSA) with antibiotherapy and antifungal strategy. Although the patients suffer of digestive symptoms, intestinale complications are really less explored. Neutropenic enterocolitis (NE), cytomegalovirus (CMV) colitis, Clostridium difficile colitis, specific lesion, ischemic colitis are not well-known. No prospective study evaluate NE and these digestive complications which have high morbi-mortality rates.

The aim of this study is to look for predisposing mutations in patients and relatives affected by AML and MDS with familial history of myeloid or, less frequently, lymphoid malignancies. Taking advantage of a next generation sequencing (NGS) platform, screening for known and unknown mutations potentially associated with the disease will be done. The screening will be performed on affected and unaffected family members, in order to outline new pedigrees that either validate previous findings or constitute novel discoveries.

Observational study aimed at evaluating the incidence of familial AML/MDSs in patients with de novo MDSs or AML with almost one relative affected by hematologic neoplasms and/or other cancers at young age (< 40 years)
