Active clinical trials for "Philadelphia Chromosome"

The goal of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and the tolerance of the combination of nilotinib with chemotherapy in the front-line setting as induction and consolidation therapy in Ph+ ALL patient aged 55 years and over. A European consensus has been reached to adopt a common chemotherapeutic schedule for patients aged 55 years and over. This schedule will be used in this trial with the addition of nilotinib as concomitant therapy during induction, consolidation and maintenance. The patients will be prospectively monitored for minimal residual disease and bcr-abl tyrosine kinase domain mutations.

This study will assess the maximum tolerated dose of low dose interferon in conjunction with nilotinib in pretreated Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia patients in chronic phase (CML-CP).

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of entinostat when given together with clofarabine in treating patients with newly diagnosed, relapsed, or refractory poor-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia or bilineage/biphenotypic leukemia. Entinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving entinostat with clofarabine may kill more cancer cells.

This study assesses the long-term safety and tolerability of dasatinib administered to patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia or Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia and experienced clinical benefit from treatment with dasatinib or imatinib in previous protocols.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Imatinib is safe and effective in association with intensive treatment of Ph+ALL in children.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat and decitabine in treating patients with relapsed, refractory, or poor-prognosis hematologic cancer or other diseases. Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving vorinostat together with decitabine may kill more cancer cells

The purpose of this study is assess the effects of the investigational drug dasatinib on participants who are in chronic phase Philadelphia chromosome chronic myeloid leukemia and who are either resistant to or intolerant of imatinib. Other purposes of the study are to identify any side effects the drug may produce and to study the level of dasatanib in the blood and assess the efficacy of dasatanib in the treatment of leukemia.

The purpose of this trial is to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, biologic activity, and pharmacokinetics of AMN107 in six groups of patients with one of the following conditions: Relapsed/refractory Ph+ Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (arm 1) Group A - Imatinib failure only (arms 2, 3 and 4) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Chronic Phase (CP) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Accelerated Phase (AP) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Blast Crisis (BC) Group B - Imatinib and other TKI failure (arms 2, 3 and 4) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Chronic Phase (CP) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Accelerated Phase (AP) imatinib-resistant or intolerant CML - Blast Crisis (BC) Hypereosinophilic syndrome/chronic eosinophilic leukemia (HES/CEL) (arm 5) Systemic mastocytosis (Sm) (arm 6)

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of alemtuzumab when given together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with untreated acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Monoclonal antibodies, such as alemtuzumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy also work in different ways to kill cancer cells or stop them from growing. Giving alemtuzumab together with combination chemotherapy may be a better way to block cancer growth.

This study aimed to assess the optimal duration of nilotinib 300 mg twice daily (BID) consolidation treatment in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), in order that patients remained in treatment-free remission (≥MR4.0) without molecular relapse 12 months after starting the Treatment-Free Remission (TFR) phase.
