Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myelogenous, Chronic, BCR-ABL Positive"

This is a Phase I/II single site, open label clinical trial. The purpose of the Phase I portion is to determine the safety, tolerability, and recommended Phase II dose of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) when given daily in combination with a Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) in subjects with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) in chronic stable phase. The recommended Phase II dose will be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of EPA as determined by the evaluation of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). The Phase II portion will subsequently examine the Anti-CML effects of EPA when administered with a TKI at the recommended Phase II dose. This efficacy objective will be done by evaluating BCR-ABL p210 quantitative PCR blood levels every 3 months to 1 year.

The purpose of this Australian study was to assess the efficacy and safety of nilotinib 300mg twice daily in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia chronic phase who were intolerant but responsive to 1st line treatment with imatinib or dasatinib. Eligible patients have been previously treated with imatinib or dasatinib for at least 3 months and are experiencing non-hematologic toxicity whilst having documented responses that meet PBS authority for 1st line treatment of CML without current MR4.5.

This is a prospective non-therapeutic study, assessing the long-term toxicity of pediatric HCT for hematologic malignancies. This study is a collaboration between the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplant Consortium (PBMTC), the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR), the National Marrow Transplant Program (NMDP) and the Resource for Clinical Investigation in Blood and Marrow Transplantation (RCI-BMT) of the CIBMTR. The study will enroll pediatric patients who undergo myeloablative HCT for hematologic malignancies at PBMTC sites.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 2 starting doses of ponatinib compared to nilotinib in participants with imatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase (CP).

This phase II trial studies how well pioglitazone hydrochloride and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy works in treating patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) after a first TKI discontinuation. TKI may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking certain enzymes need for cell growth. Although TKI therapies are effective against CML, there are residual cancer cells called leukemia stem cells that are able to hide from TKIs. Pioglitazone is a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat diabetes and has been shown in laboratory studies to increase CML stem cell death when given together with TKI therapy. Giving pioglitazone with TKI therapy may be effective in treating patients with CML.

This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving rasburicase together with allopurinol works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Rasburicase may reduce the level of uric acid in the blood. Allopurinol may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known which dose of rasburicase is more effective in treating hematologic malignancies when given together with or without allopurinol.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of entinostat when given together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors or refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia. Entinostat and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a peptide may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.

The aim of this phase I/II trial is to determine the dose of daunorubicine to be associated with cytarabine and Imatinib for induction therapy in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia in myeloid acute phase.

To assess the proportion of patients with donor neutrophil engraftment within 30 days of allogeneic transplant. To assess the incidence of acute GvHD during the first 100 days after transplantation.
