Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of venetoclax monotherapy in participants with relapsed/refractory CLL with or without the 17p deletion or TP53 mutation, including those who have received prior treatment with a B-cell receptor inhibitor.

There are 2 parts to this study: Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion). The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerated dose of the combination of selinexor (KPT-330) and sorafenib (Nexavar) that can be given to patients with FLT3-ITD and -D835 mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or FLT3-mutated high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The goal of Part 2 of this study is to learn if the dose found in Part 1 can help to control the disease. The safety of the drug combination will also be studied in both parts of this study. This is an investigational study. Sorafenib is FDA approved and commercially available to treat hepatocellular cancer. Selinexor is not FDA approved or commercially available. It is currently being used for research purposes only. The combination of selinexor and sorafenib to treat FLT3-mutated AML and high-risk MDS is investigational. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 52 participants will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) from matched sibling donor (MSD),matched unrelated donor (MUD) and haploidentical related donors(HRD) in the treatment of hematologic malignancy.

This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and best dose of CD19-specific T-cells in treating patients with lymphoid malignancies that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Sometimes researchers change the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (genetic material in cells) of donated T-cells (white blood cells that support the immune system) using a process called "gene transfer." Gene transfer involves drawing blood from the patient, and then separating out the T-cells using a machine. Researchers then perform a gene transfer to change the T-cells' DNA, and then inject the changed T-cells into the body of the patient. Injecting modified T-cells made from the patient may help attack cancer cells in patients with advanced B-cell lymphoma or leukemia.

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has decreased or disappeared but may still be in the body (remission), and is at high risk for returning (relapse). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

This research study is evaluating drugs called Millennium 9708 (referred to as MLN9708) in combination with standard therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consisting of daunorubicin and cytarabine as a possible treatment for the patient AML.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of selinexor when give together with standard chemotherapy, high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, 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. Giving selinexor together with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

A Phase I/IIa, open-label, uncontrolled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Astarabine (BST-236) as single agent in patients with refractory or relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) disease

Glasdegib is being studied in combination with azacitidine for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not candidates for intensive induction chemotherapy (Non-intensive AML population). Glasdegib is being studied in combination with cytarabine and daunorubicin for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia (Intensive AML population).

The purpose of this study is to gather and evaluate additional safety and efficacy data on the combination of midostaurin and standard of care for adult patients with newly diagnosed Fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor (FLT3) mutated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who are eligible for standard induction and consolidation
