Active clinical trials for "Neoplasms, Plasma Cell"

Primary objective: Compare the complete remission (CR) rates (i.e., the true CR, with negative immunofixation) achieved with either four courses of VD or four courses of VTD. Secondary objectives: Compare the following parameters following 4 cycles of VD or VTD induction treatment: CR rate+ very good partial remission (VGPR) rate Overall remission rate (CR + VGPR + partial remission (PR) rate) K/l light chain ratio in patients in CR. Safety (quality of the sampled stem cells, extrahaematological and haematological toxicity: specially neurological toxicity, length of hospitalization). Compare the CR rate and the CR + VGPR rates after post-induction autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT).

Dendritic cell therapy is a promising strategy for adjuvant cancer therapy in the setting of minimal residual disease (MRD) to fight off cancer relapse and/or progression. The investigators already performed a phase I safety study in leukemia patients that were in complete remission demonstrating the absence of side effects and feasibility of the therapy. Here, the investigators want to extend on this strategy by studying the clinical efficacy of autologous DC vaccination in patients with acute and chronic myeloid leukemia and myeloma patients. Effects of DC therapy on the immune reactivity towards leukemia cells as well as clinical parameters such molecular MRD monitoring, time to relapse (TTR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS) will be studied in vaccinated and non-vaccinated (control) patients. Patients will be vaccinated using their own dendritic cells electroporated with mRNA coding for the full-length Wilms' tumor antigen WT1.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of idarubicin plus peripheral stem cell transplantation using the patient's own or donated stem cells in treating patients with leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

RATIONALE: Drugs such as SU006668 may stop the growth of solid tumors by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of SU006668 in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.

RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as beta alethine use different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop cancer cells from growing. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of beta alethine in treating patients who have myeloma.

The purpose of this study is to infusion BCMA CAR-T cells to the patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma(MM), to assess the safety and feasibility of this strategy. The CAR enables the T cell to recognize and kill the MM cells through the recognition of BCMA, a protein expressed of the surface of the malignant plasma cells in MM patients.

This study will recruit patients currently receiving either lenalidomide or pomalidomide whose disease is relapsing. This is a dose escalation study and the aim is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of REOLYSIN® that can be given in combination with lenalidomide or pomalidomide. The study will also investigate the safety, side effects and effectiveness of this treatment combination. Pomalidomide and lenalidomide will be evaluated separately as two separate groups.

This is a single-center, non-randomized and dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of C-CAR088 in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patient.

This is a single-center, non-randomized study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of C-CAR088 in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients.

This is a single arm, open label, multi-center prospective study to explory the safety and efficacy of GC012F CAR-T cells in patient diagnosed with high-risk chromosomal abnormalities BCMA+ multiple myeloma(MM).
