Active clinical trials for "Leukemia"

This was an open-label pilot study that evaluated the safety and preliminary evidence of a therapeutic effect of dociparstat in conjunction with standard induction and consolidation therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of decitabine followed by mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and cytarabine and to see how well they work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, cytarabine, 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. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells.

An Open-label Extension Study in Patients 65 Years or Older with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL) Who Participated in Study PCYC-1115-CA (Ibrutinib versus Chlorambucil)

To investigate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous volasertib + subcutaneous low dose cytarabine in patients >= 65 years of age with previously untreated acute myeloid leukaemia, ineligible for intensive remission induction therapy

The primary purpose of this study was to determine the recommended dose (RD) of birabresib (MK-8628) /OTX015 for further phase II studies, in participants with acute leukemia (AL) including acute myeloid leukemia (AML; de novo and secondary to a myelodysplastic syndrome) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or other hematologic malignancies (OHM) including diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and multiple myeloma (MM). The first phase of the study will be a dose escalation phase to determine the Phase II RD using dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Once the RD is determined, participants will be enrolled in an expansion phase at the RD to determine preliminary efficacy in AL and OHM cohorts. Participants received therapy in 21-day cycles until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or treatment interruption for >2 weeks due to toxicity.

The purpose of this study is to find out if treating Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) with a study drug [ruxolitinib] can improve outcomes of patients with CMML. The first step of the study is to learn the dose of ruxolitinib that is tolerable (bearable). It has already been studied in a number of patients with different bone marrow diseases and is approved for the treatment of a disease called Myelofibrosis; however, it is not approved for treatment of CMML. It is given orally (by mouth). Most people tolerate it well but the tolerability has not been determined in patients with CMML. We will be testing different doses to determine how much of the medication people can tolerate (bear) before they develop side effects.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of AR-42 when given together with decitabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. AR-42 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 AR-42 together with decitabine may kill more cancer cells.

This is a Phase I trial investigating the safety of using thioridazine in addition to cytarabine in elderly patients with relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

This phase II trial studies the efficacy (activity), and tolerability of curcumin and cholecalciferol combination in treating patients with previously untreated stage 0-II chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Curcumin and cholecalciferol may prevent or slow the growth of cancer cells.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TGR-1202 in combination with obinutuzumab (Gazyva) and chlorambucil in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
