Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

This phase II trial studies how well lenalidomide and ofatumumab work in treating participants with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as ofatumumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide and ofatumumab may work better in treating participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical activity and safety of a WT1 Antigen-Specific Cancer Immunotherapeutic (WT1 ASCI) as post-induction therapy in adult patients with WT1-positive AML presenting a suboptimal clinical response to induction chemotherapy. The study will also assess whether this treatment induces a specific immune response to the malignancy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if enteral docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) administration during the first three months of treatment reduces the deterioration of nutritional status, treatment toxicity and early mortality in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

This is an open-label study of Clofarabine, Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide, PEG-asparaginase, and Vincristine to assess this 5-drug treatment's safety and tolerability in pediatric patients with first relapse Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL).

Hypothesis: Combined treatment with valproic acid and ATRA can be used to achieve disease stabilization for a subset of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and this effect can be improved without serious toxicity by adding low-dose cytarabine to this treatment. Adult patients >18 years of age who can be included: Elderly patients who cannot achieve standard chemotherapy, patients with relapsed or resistant AML. Treatment: Combined therapy with: Valproic acid, continuous therapy until disease progression ATRA, oral therapy for 14 days every three months Low-dose cytarabine 10 mg/m2 up to 10 injections during week 2 and 3, repeated every 3 months.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of azacitidine and vorinostat can help to control AML or MDS better than azacitidine alone. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

The study will compare the efficacy of the 2 treatments in intermediate and high-risk APL patients in achieving first hematological complete remission and molecular remission.

Phase III trial evaluating the role of autologous stem cell transplantation in previously untreated patients under 65 years with stage B and C B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Endpoints of the trial : major : progression free survival at 3 years secondary : overall survival, tolerance, prognostic factors according to baseline clinical stage and biological characteristics (IgHv mutational status, expression of ZAP70 and CD38, cytogenetics).

A study to assess the safety and tolerability of AZD1152 in combination with low dose cytosine arabinoside (LDAC) in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). The first three patients to complete a 28 day cycle in the cohort, before the second three patients start treatment.

MEK111759 is a dose-escalation, Phase I/II, open-label study to determine the recommended dose and regimen for the orally administered MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 in subjects with relapsed or refractory leukemias. The recommended dose and regimen will be selected based on the safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profiles. This study will identify the maximum tolerated and recommended Phase II doses using a dose-escalation procedure. Dose escalations will continue based on predefined parameters until a maximum tolerated dose is established. In Phase II, the clinical efficacy of GSK1120212 in subjects with relapsed or refractory leukaemias (AML, MDS or CMML) will be determined.
