1,580 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
RATIONALE: INCB18424 (Ruxolitinib) may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase 1 clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of INCB18424 in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumor, leukemia, or myeloproliferative disease.
The aim of this study is to examine the association of exposure to air contaminants (PAH \& VOC) emitted from the petrochemical industries, specific genetic polymorphisms (P4501A1 (MspI \& exon 7) and GSTM1 \& T1) of study subjects and their parents, and the risks of brain tumors and leukemia among children and youths in metropolitan Kaohsiung, southern Taiwan.
The purpose of the study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of a novel mHealth behavioral intervention to enable HCT patients to effectively cope with symptoms to improve their ability to engage in physical activity that can improve physical disability. Our interdisciplinary team (psychiatry, hematology/oncology, occupational therapy) proposes a single arm pilot trial (N=20) to test a hybrid in-person and mHealth (video-conferencing, symptoms/activity monitoring, personalized feedback via text) HCT Coping Skills Training for Symptom Management and Daily Steps (CST Step-Up) intervention. CST Step-Up will provide patients with coping skills training and activity coaching sessions to enhance their ability to cope with symptoms that interfere with activity.
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sorafenib in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Sorafenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer.
Background: * Bone marrow stem cells, which are found in the bone marrow and blood stream, can be collected and transplanted to treat a variety of types of cancer in a process known as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). When stem cells are taken from one person, most commonly a sibling or a family member, and then given to another person, this is referred to as allogeneic HSCT. Allogeneic HSCT has proven to be an especially effective treatment for patients with some types of cancers of the blood (leukemia) and certain solid tumors. The transplanted stem cells travel to the patient's bone marrow and begin producing normal blood cells, and also attack patients cancer cells. * Because allogenic HSCT does not always prevent the cancer from returning, researchers are interested in determining whether another type of immune cell taken from the stem cell donors white blood cells, called a "natural killer" (NK) cell, can be given in addition to the HSCT to help fight the tumor. In the laboratory, NK cells have been shown to kill tumor cells, but it is not yet know if this will occur when given to patients after HSCT. Objectives: * To determine the safety, effectiveness, and immune system response of giving NK white blood cells to individuals who have received allogeneic HSCT. * To identify possible side effects from the treatment. Eligibility: * Donors: Stem cell donors whose blood matches one of the recipients on six out of six human leukocyte antigen (HLA) (blood immune marker) types. The donor may not be the identical twin of a recipient. * Recipients: Individuals between 4 and 35 years of age who have been diagnosed with pediatric solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment, or individuals between 4 and 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with leukemia that has not responded to standard treatment. * Other eligibility requirements which include a physical exam and blood laboratory evaluation are included to make sure it is safe for both the donor to donate and the recipient to undergo the transplant procedure. Design: * Donors and recipients will be screened with a full medical history and physical examination, and will provide blood and urine samples; recipients will have tumor imaging studies and other tests as required by the researchers. * Donors: * Participants will receive filgrastim injections (to stimulate the bone marrow) for 1 week to make stem cells travel from bone marrow to blood. * Participants will provide stem cells and NK cells through apheresis. * Recipients: * Participants will have three cycles of chemotherapy to treat the underlying cancer and weaken the immune system so that it will accept the donor cells. * Participants will then receive preparative chemotherapy for the transplant and two days after the last dose of chemotherapy, participants will have allogenic HSCT using the donated stem cells. * Participants will receive an infusion of NK cells on days 7 and 35 after the HSCT. - Participants will remain in the hospital for monitoring after the HSCT and NK cell treatments, and will be followed closely as outpatients for the first 6 months after the transplant and then less frequently for at least 5 years.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects, best way to give, and best dose of Akt inhibitor MK2206 (MK2206) in treating patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. MK2206 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase II trial is studying the side effects of and how well alisertib works in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Alisertib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This is a phase 1, dose escalating study to determine the safety of PF-03084014 in patients with advanced cancer and leukemia
Phase I Study of Bevacizumab and Sorafenib Combined with Low Dose Cyclophosphamide in Patients with Refractory Solid Tumors and Leukemia. Patients with solid tumors (including central nervous tumors) that are recurrent or refractory to standard therapy, or for whom standard therapy is not available. Once a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) has been established in patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, the tolerability of this dose will be tested in patients with refractory or recurrent leukemia and an expanded cohort of patients with refractory or recurrent solid tumors.
The purpose of this research study is to collect, freeze and store leukemia cells from the blood or bone marrow of patients that have advanced chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that is not in clinical remission. This study is a companion study to DF/HCC clinical trial 06-196 in which the participants' own CLL cells may form part of a vaccine treatment for their leukemia.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of 17-N-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as 17-N-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of FR901228 in treating children with refractory or recurrent solid tumors or leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die

This open label, Phase I study of RO6839921 is a dose-escalation study with two arms. Prior to investigations in either arm, patients in a single cohort, Cohort 0, will receive non-escalating, intravenous (IV) doses of RO6839921 daily on Days 1-5 of a 28-day cycle. Interim PK and safety data from this cohort will be evaluated before initiating dose-escalation. In arm A, RO6839921 will be given to patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies. In Arm B, RO6839921 will be given to patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The arms will escalate independently. Escalation will begin in solid tumor patients (Arm A) in single patient cohorts, using a new Continual Reassessment Method (n-CRM). Escalation for AML patients will be initiated at or below the dose level that causes \>/= Grade 2 hematologic side effects in Arm A. Escalation in AML patients will follow a rolling 6 design. In both arms, RO6839921 will be administered by IV infusion on Days 1-5 of 28-day cycles. There will be no intrapatient dose escalation. All patients may be treated until disease progression/relapse or unacceptable toxicity.
This open-label, extension study is designed to provide continuing treatment with RO5045337 to participants who have completed parent studies NO21279 (NCT00623870), NO21280 (NCT00559533), NP25299 (NCT01164033), NP28021 (NCT01605526) or NP28023 (NCT01635296). Participants are eligible to participate in this study if they have completed required Phase 1 study assessments for primary objectives of respective parent protocol and are having evidence of clinical benefit (as defined by the parent protocol). Participants will continue the most similar dose and formulation available (which does not exceed the maximum tolerated dose \[MTD\] or the maximum safely administered dose for that formulation during Phase 1) and the same schedule of RO5045337 treatment that they were receiving at the time of transitioning from the parent clinical study protocol.
PF-02341066 may work in cancer by blocking the cell growth, migration and invasion of tumor cells. PF-02341066 is a new class of drugs called c-Met/Hepatocyte growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This compound is also an inhibitor of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (called ALK) tyrosine kinase and ROS receptor tyrosine kinases. This research study is the first time PF-02341066 will be given to people. PF-02341066 is taken by mouth daily.
This clinical trial evaluates the effects of hemoglobin threshold-specific packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusions on quality of life and functional outcomes in patients who have undergone chemotherapy or an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant for a high-grade myeloid neoplasm, acute myeloid leukemia, or B acute lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia. Some types of chemotherapy and stem cell transplants can induce low platelet counts and/or anemia that requires PRBC transfusions. Given critical shortages in blood supply, and risks associated with transfusion of PRBC, there has been much investigation into the "minimum" hemoglobin level that effectively balances safety and toxicity in patients. This clinical trial evaluates the effects of giving PRBC transfusions based on a more restrictive hemoglobin threshold (\> 7 gm/dL) compared to a more liberal hemoglobin threshold (\> 9 gm/dL) on quality of life and functional outcomes. A more restrictive threshold may be just as effective at maintaining patient quality of life and function while decreasing side effects from blood transfusions and helping to conserve blood supply resources.
A non-randomized phase Ib study of PC14586 (PMV therapeutics) in patients diagnosed with TP53Y220C-mutant myeloid malignancies, including AML and MDS.
This Phase 1 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), and clinical activity of KT-253 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) high grade myeloid malignancies, acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), R/R lymphoma, myelofibrosis, and R/R solid tumors. The study will identify the pharmacologically optimal dose(s) (MTD) of KT-253 as the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), based on all safety, PK, PD, and efficacy data.
This Phase 1a/1b study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of KT-333 in Adult patients with Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) Lymphomas, Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia (LGL-L), T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL), and Solid Tumors. The Phase 1a stage of the study will explore escalating doses of single-agent KT-333. The Phase Ib stage will consist of 4 expansion cohorts to further characterize the safety, tolerability and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of KT-333 in Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL), Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL), LGL-L, and solid tumors.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric malignancy, with the peak incidences occurring in children two to five years of age. Children with ALL received neurotoxic chemotherapy agents for two to three years that causes decreased distal muscle strength and poor timing of muscle activation. After completion of medical treatment, ALL childhood cancer survivors (ALL CCS) are more likely to have an inactive lifestyle, resulting in life-long gross motor proficiency differences compared to their peers. ALL CCS typically do not utilize physical therapists' expertise after medical treatment has been completed. There are limited physical therapy (PT) intervention studies for ALL CCS.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn how the experimental medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) affects people with various types of blood cancers: * relapsed or refractory (R/R) lymphoma * multiple myeloma * newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This trial will be conducted in the outpatient setting in 2 parts, phase 1a and phase 1b. You may only participate in one part of the study. During phase 1a of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used by itself, can be safely used. If you have lymphoma, the study medicine maplirpacept (PF-07901801) will be given by infusion through a vein once a week or once every 2 weeks or every 3 weeks as determined by your doctor. Following your first dose, you will be expected to come back twice more the first week. From week 2, you will have weekly visits for blood tests, questions about your medications, any side effects, or illnesses you may have experienced and your cancer response. After you have completed 21 days (for every week dosing) or 42 days (for every 2- or 3-weeks dosing), your doctor will discuss whether you should stop study treatment or continue. If you continue, you will be expected to come back weekly for blood tests, vital signs, a brief physical exam, asked about any side effects or illnesses you may have experienced and medications you may be taking. The dosing schedule you are assigned to will continue until your disease has worsened, significant side effects occur or other reasons that lead you and your doctor to decide treatment may be stopped. To be eligible for the first part of the study you must be 18 years or older, your disease has worsened after receiving other medicines approved for blood cancer, no other treatment options exist for you, a sample of your tissue for exploratory research which can be taken from tissue already obtained or if necessary, a new sample of your tissue will be taken so your disease may be seen and measured on routine tests/scans. If you have had radiation therapy or received any anticancer medication within 14 days before the planned start of study treatment your doctor will let you know if you are eligible to participate in the study. If you have had major surgery within 30 days before the planned start of study treatment you may not be eligible to participate. The phase 1a part of the study may last up to 51/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason. During phase 1b part of this study, we will explore how much maplirpacept (PF-07901801), when used with other anticancer medicine(s), can be safe and reduce cancer growth. In the phase 1b part of this study, you will receive maplirpacept (PF-07901801) and other anticancer medicine(s). Which medicine combination you will receive depends on the types of cancer under treatment. Your treatment experiences will be examined to determine if maplirpacept (PF-07901801) when given with other anticancer medicine(s), is safe and can reduce cancer growth. To be eligible for the second part of the study you may have newly diagnosed Acute Myelocytic Leukemia with or without a genetic mutation or you have Multiple Myeloma or Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, and your disease has worsened. The Phase 1b part of this study may last as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit which could be up to approximately 31/2 years. How long you participate in this study depends on side effects you may have to the study drug. It also depends on how your cancer responds to the study drug. Therefore, you may remain in the study as long as you and your study doctor think you may benefit. However, you are free to stop taking part in this study at any time and for any reason.
This is an open-label, Phase 1, dose-escalation (Segment 1) and expansion (Segment 2) study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended phase two dose (RPTD), and to assess the safety, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ABBV-744 in participants with relapsed/refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of obatoclax mesylate when given together with vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexrazoxane hydrochloride in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or leukemia. Obatoclax mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the proteins needed for cell growth and causing the cells to self-destruct. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexrazoxane hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving obatoclax mesylate together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with isotretinoin in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Isotretinoin may cause cancer cells to look more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly. Giving vorinostat together with isotretinoin may be an effective treatment for cancer.
An open-label, dose-escalation study to assess safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy as well as determine the recommended Phase 2 doses of co-administered therapy of dinaciclib and venetoclax for patients with relapsed or refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (R/R AML).
This Phase I dose-escalation trial is designed to evaluate the safety of administering rapidly -generated tumor multi-antigen associated -specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes, to HSCT recipients with high risk AML and MDS.
Many types of cancer are treated with chemotherapy drugs and/or radiation therapy. These forms of treatment, however, can also damage normal (non-cancer) cells and cause a variety of side effects. There are many side effects of chemotherapy. A few examples are: lowered red blood cell counts (anemia) which can lead to tiredness, weakness or shortness of breath; lowered white cell counts (white blood cells which help the body to fight infection); low platelet counts (platelets help blood to clot); nausea and vomiting; diarrhea; lip and mouth sores and hair loss. These side effects can range from mild to severe. P53 is a protein in the body that regulates the cell cycle. If a cell becomes damaged from chemotherapy or radiation treatment, the p53 protein becomes activated. This activation can cause the cell to die and is involved in causing side effects from chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Arsenic trioxide is a drug that is currently approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), which is a type of blood and bone marrow cancer. It is given by I.V (intravenous, by vein). New preclinical studies have shown that when given in smaller than normal doses before treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy, the arsenic trioxide can block the activation of p53 and protect normal tissues from treatment damage. Preclinical means that the studies have been done in a laboratory and not on humans. This study has two purposes. The first is to find the dose range for arsenic trioxide that will block p53 activity. This dose has been determined from the first five subjects who took part in the study and received arsenic trioxide. The dose of arsenic trioxide for this study is about 1/30 of the normal dose given when arsenic trioxide is used to treat acute promyelocytic leukemia. The second is to see if the arsenic trioxide will decrease the side effects of chemotherapy. In this study, arsenic trioxide is investigational. "Investigational" means that arsenic trioxide has not yet been approved by the FDA to block p53 activity. This study will help find out what the smallest (best) dose is that can be given and the effects, good and/or bad, this drug has on people who take it. The safety of this drug in humans has been tested in prior research studies; however, whether the side effects will still be present at this lower dose is not yet known.
Children surviving some types of cancer have a higher risk of developing learning problems after cancer treatment than do children who have not had cancer or its treatment. Cancer treatment may cause problems with learning, attention, and memory. The purpose of this study is to identify brain changes that may underlie learning problems in cancer survivors and investigate whether methylphenidate (a stimulant medication) may reduce these problems. Subjects who have had treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or a brain tumor will be asked to take part in this research study. Siblings of some subjects will also be asked to take part, so that their results can be compared with those of children who have had cancer treatment. We hypothesize that children receiving more aggressive therapy will have lower white matter brain volumes and these volumes will be significantly lower than age-matched siblings. We also hypothesize that children who take methylphenidate will show improvements on teacher and parent report measures of attention and social skills.
This is a Phase Ib Study to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Venetoclax in combination with Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin(GO) in subjects with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Using a standard 3+3 design, subjects will receive once cycle of combination therapy. After one cycle of combination therapy, subjects showing response will continue on to one cycle of consolidation therapy with GO\\Veneoclax. Subjects who respond to combination therapy will continue on maintenance Venetoclax until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Dose-limiting toxicity, defined as an adverse event related (possible, probably, or definite) to Venetoclax and/or Gemtuzumab fulfilling one of the following criteria: criteria: * Hematologic toxicity: treatment-related grade 3 or worse neutropenia and/or thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow hypocellularity present at the end of cycle one (day 28) with an additional 28 days allowed for count recovery (i.e. present at day 56); specifically grade 3 or worse neutropenia or thrombocytopenia with the bone marrow documented to be free of leukemic infiltration. Note: patients who enter the study with grade 3 or worse cytopenias will not be evaluable for hematologic dose-limiting toxicities. * Non-hematologic toxicity: any grade 3 or worse treatment-related toxicity occurring within the first cycle (excluding grade 3-4 infections during cycle one). The study will also evaluate the Overall Response Rate, Anti-leukemic activity, Relapse-free Survival (RFS), event-free survival (EFS) , and overall survival (OS). The study will evaluate quality of life using the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer 30 item questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30).
