Active clinical trials for "Preleukemia"

This study will evaluate a new maintenance therapy with the aim of improving the outcome of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and myelodysplasia (MDS) after stem cell transplantation.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of edetate calcium disodium or succimer in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome undergoing chemotherapy. Edetate calcium disodium or succimer may help to lower the level of metals found in the bone marrow and blood and may help to control the disease and/or improve response to chemotherapy.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen in low- and intermediate-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients who receive haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Haplo-HSCT is an effective treatment option for MDS patients who did not have identical sibling donor (ISD) or unrelated donor (URD). However, post-transplant transplant-related mortality (TRM) is one of the major causes for transplant failure in MDS patients, and the risk of TRM for haplo-HSCT recipients was higher than that of ISD recipients. RIC regimen can decrease the risk of TRM for haplo-HSCT recipients; however, the risk for relapse may increase in these patients. Thus, RIC regimen may be more appropriate for low- and intermediate-risk MDS patients receiving haplo-HSCT. The study hypothesis: Using RIC haplo-HSCT regimen in patients with low- and risk MDS can reduce TRM and improve survival.

This phase II trial studies how well venetoclax and decitabine work in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment, or with high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as venetoclax and decitabine, 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.

AML and MDS-EB2 are malignancies of the bone marrow. The standard treatment for these diseases is chemotherapy. Patients participating have a special type of this disease because the leukemia cells (blasts) have developed an error in the genetic material (DNA). This error is called an IDH1 mutation or an IDH2 mutation (a mutation is a change in the DNA), which leads to changes in specific substances in the leukemia cells. This trial will investigate whether the addition of the new drugs Ivosidenib (for patients with IDH1 mutation) or Enasidenib (for patients with IDH2 mutation) to the standard treatment of chemotherapy controle the disease more effectively and for a longer period.

Background: Severe aplastic anemia (SAA), and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) cause serious blood problems. Stem cell transplants using bone marrow or blood plus chemotherapy can help. Researchers want to see if using peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) rather than bone marrow cells works too. PBSCs are easier to collect and have more cells that help transplants. Objectives: To see how safely and effectively SAA, MDS and PNH are treated using peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells from a family member plus chemotherapy. Eligibility: Recipients ages 4-55 with SAA, MDS or PNH and their relative donors ages 4-75 Design: Recipients will have: Blood, urine, heart, and lung tests Scans Bone marrow sample Recipients will need a caregiver for several months. They may make fertility plans and a power of attorney. Donors will have blood and tissue tests, then injections to boost stem cells for 5-7 days. Donors will have blood collected from a tube in an arm or leg vein. A machine will separate stem cells and maybe white blood cells. The rest of the blood will be returned into the other arm or leg. In the hospital for about 1 month, recipients will have: Central line inserted in the neck or chest Medicines for side effects Chemotherapy over 8 days and radiation 1 time Stem cell transplant over 4 hours Up to 6 months after transplant, recipients will stay near NIH for weekly physical exams and blood tests. At day 180, recipients will go home. They will have tests at their doctor s office and NIH several times over 5 years.

The goal of this research study is to find the safest and most effective dose of the study drug, BXCL701, for the treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS). The names of the study drugs involved in this study are/is: BXCL701

This phase3 study is a randomized, controlled, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Lemzoparlimab for injection in combination with AZA versus AZA monotherapy as first-line therapy in treatment-naïve subjects with intermediate- and high-risk MDS.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of luspatercept in participants who require regular blood cell transfusions due to b-thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndromes in India

The purpose of the study is to see if participants with anemia due to their type of MDS or MDS/MPN will experience a more decreased need for regular blood transfusions if they take luspatercept plus best supportive care, and what effect, good and/or bad, luspatercept has on them and their anemia due to MDS or MDS/MPN. The safety and tolerability of luspatercept will also be evaluated in this study.
