Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

The study aims to evaluate the occurrence, mortality, and risk factors for invasive mold infections (IMI) in children treated with chemotherapy for acute leukemia in Denmark. The study will be a retrospective nationwide survey study of all children who received first-line chemotherapy for acute leukemia from 2008 to 2022 in Danish pediatric oncology units. The study population will include approximately 800 children under the age of 18. Data will be collected from medical records, hospital databases, and national databases. When the IMI subgroup has been identified, this will be compared to the leukemic group that did not develop IMI. Statistical analysis can then determine the occurrence, mortality rate, and possible IMI risk factors.

The goal of this study is to pilot test an Electronic Health Mindfulness-based Music Therapy Intervention (eMBMT) intervention to improve health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduce symptom burden of patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT).

Most of patients with acute myeloid leukemia achieved complete remission (CR) after primary induction chemotherapy, there were 20-30% patients without CR after first-induction. It was uncertain how to treat these patients. It was investigated in our study that these patients were re-induced with CLAG Regimen. The CR ratio, overall survival (OS) and relapsed-free survival (RFS) was statistically analysed in these patients.

If for years the treatment strategy of leukemia and related disorders (LRDs, including acute leukemias and predisposition syndromes) has been based solely on whether the patient could receive or not intensive chemotherapy and transplantation, the advent of new targeted or less targeted drugs has led to the development of a growing number of new therapeutic approaches, very often offered to specific patient/disease subsets, justifying the generic term of 'precision medicine'. As an international leukemia center of excellence, THEMA, the French National Center for Precision Medicine in Leukemia (selected as IHUB-2 by the French National Agency for Research), is a care, research, transfer and education initiative located at the Saint-Louis Research Institute (IRSL) in Paris and devoted to precision medicine in leukemia in a real-life environment. The present non-interventional study (eTHEMA) is a pillar of the whole THEMA project. As a prerequisite for precision medicine, this program focuses on individual data collection, aiming to collect high-quality data not only in patients treated into prospective clinical trials, but in every THEMA patient with a special interest in outpatients' care and research. The primary objective of this non-interventional study is to describe the baseline characteristics planned treatments and outcomes of patients newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN)-related myelofibrosis, when managed and treated according to standard diagnosis and care practices.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow and is the most common acute leukemia in adults. This study will evaluate how well venetoclax in combination with azacitidine works to treat AML in newly diagnosed adult participants who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy in Italy. Venetoclax in combination with azacitidine is approved in Italy to treat Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in newly diagnosed adults who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy. All study participants will receive venetoclax in combination with azacitidine as prescribed by their study doctor in accordance with approved local label. Adult participants with a new diagnosis of AML will be enrolled. Around 150 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20-25 sites in Italy. Participants will receive venetoclax tablets to be taken by mouth in combination with azacitidine given by subcutaneous (SC) injection according to the approved local label. The duration of the study is approximately 18 months. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. All study visits will occur during routine clinical practice and participants will be followed for 18 months.

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of nivolumab that can be give in combination with idarubicin and cytarabine in patients with MDS and AML. The safety and effectiveness of this drug combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Nivolumab is not FDA-approved or commercially available. Idarubicin is FDA-approved and commercially available for the treatment of patients with AML. Cytarabine is FDA approved and commercially available for treatment of patient with AML. The use of these drugs in combination is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the drugs are designed to work. Up to 75 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

This phase II trial studies the side effects of ex vivo-activated autologous lymph node lymphocytes infusion and to see how well they work in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Biological therapies, such as ex vivo-activated autologous lymph node lymphocytes, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.

Patients with de novo AML enrolled in the study. Patient who has a HLA-identical donor is assigned to receive NST therapy with GVHD prophylaxis and who has no HLA-identical donor is assigned to receive MST therapy without GVHD prophylaxis.

The purpose of this phase I study is to investigate the combination of hypomethylating agents with experimental peptide vaccination against four selected tumor antigens, known to be upregulated in response to hypomethylating agents, in patients with high risk myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia.

The study is in two parts: a dose escalation then a safety dose expansion. The purpose of the dose escalation part is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of UCART19 (dose-escalation part) given as a single infusion in patients with relapsed / refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL), to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), the recommended dose and the lymphodepletion regimen. The purpose of the safety dose expansion is to assess the safety and tolerability of the RD for UCART19.
