Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid"

The purpose of this study is to estimate the rate of complete remission, as well as overall survival, in older patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide can stop the growth of leukemia stem cells and can be used to prevent the return of leukemia cells after a transplant.

Evaluate the role of high dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation for AML.

In this study participants with relapsed/refractory leukemia will be given MK-0457 in sequential cohorts and with varying treatment duration to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for MK-0457.

Patients who have acute myeloid leukemia and will undergo haplo-identical donor hematopoeitic cell transplantation (haplo HCT) are potential candidates of this trial. Participants will randomized into two arms: Arm A will undergo a typical haplo HCT, while Arm B will receive an coinfusion of an unrelated cord blood unit (haplo-cord HCT) in addition to Arm A. Progression-free survival, overall survival, cumulative incidence of relapse and nonrelapse mortality will be recorded as endpoints.

A Disintegrin-like And Metalloprotease with Thrombospondin type 1 motif 13 (ADAMTS13) deficiency was incriminated in poor prognosis, high probability of serious complications and mortality in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Interleukin 6 (IL-6) produced from AML blasts decreases Cluster of differentiation 34 positive(CD34+) cells differentiation, and inhibits the ADAMTS13 actions. Vitamin D "as an Immune-modulator" inhibits the pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-6. So, supplementation of vitamin D might help down regulation of interleukin-6 production. Aim of the study To evaluate the potential relation between Vitamin D status, ADAMTS13 and IL-6 in AML patients. Objectives Assess Vitamin D level in AML patients Assess ADAMTS13 and IL-6 in AML patients Correlate between Vitamin D level and both of ADAMTS13 and IL-6

This is an open label, two-arm, Phase I-II trial, non-randomized. Arm 1: crenolanib with standard chemotherapy (Idarubicin/Cytarabine, MEC;Mitoxantrone/Etoposide/Cytarabine, FLAG-Ida: Fludarabine/Cytarabine/G-CSF/Idarubicin) Arm 2: crenolanib with 5-azacitidine

This pilot clinical trial studies the feasibility of having induction chemotherapy in an outpatient setting. Patients with acute leukemia (AML) or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), at least 18 years of age will be examined. Treating eligible patients with induction chemotherapy in an outpatient setting may save in healthcare cost and improve a patients' quality of life.

The study investigates the time to engraftment of a mesenchymal expanded cord blood unit in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing transplantation with myeloablative conditioning.

This is a phase I study of the investigational drug AC220 combined with cytarabine and etoposide in pediatric patients with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
