This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of 225Ac-DOTA-Anti-CD38 daratumumab monoclonal antibody in combination with fludarabine, melphalan and total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) as conditioning treatment for donor stem cell transplant in patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Daratumumab is in a class of medications called monoclonal antibodies. It binds to a protein called CD38, which is found on some types of immune cells and cancer cells. Daratumumab may block CD38 and help the immune system kill cancer cells. Radioimmunotherapy is treatment with a radioactive substance that is linked to a monoclonal antibody, such as daratumumab, that will find and attach to cancer cells. Radiation given off by the radioisotope my help kill the cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine and melphalan, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. TMLI is a targeted form of body radiation that targets marrow, lymph node chains, and the spleen. It is designed to reduce radiation-associated side effects and maximize therapy effect. Actinium Ac 225-DOTA-daratumumab combined with fludarabine, melphalan and TMLI may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective as conditioning treatment for donor stem cell transplant in patients with high-risk AML, ALL, and MDS.
This phase I trial tests the side effects and best dose of total marrow lymphoid irradiation along with chemotherapy, with fludarabine and melphalan, with or without thiotepa, in combination with Orca-T cells for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Total marrow and lymphoid irradiation is a targeted form of total body irradiation that uses intensity-modulated radiation therapy to target marrow, lymph node chains, and the spleen. It is designed to reduce radiation-associated side effects and maximize the radiation therapeutic effect. Giving chemotherapy with medications such as thiotepa, fludarabine, and melphalan before a treatment with stem cells helps kill cancer cells in the body and helps make room in the patient's bone marrow for new blood-forming cells (stem cells) to grow. Orca-T cells take cells from a donor and remove some of the T cells and replace them with partially engineered T cells in order to induce better tolerance in patients. Giving total marrow and lymphoid irradiation and chemotherapy followed by Orca -T cells may be an effective treatment for patients with AML, ALL or MDS.
This phase II trial tests how well ruxolitinib with tacrolimus and methotrexate work to prevent the development of graft versus host disease in pediatric and young adult patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. Ruxolitinib is a type of medication called a kinase inhibitor. It works by blocking the signals of cells that cause inflammation and cell proliferation, which may help prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD). Tacrolimus is a drug used to help reduce the risk of rejection by the body of organ and bone marrow transplants by suppressing the immune system. Methotrexate stops cells from making DNA, may kill cancer cells, and also suppress the immune system, which may reduce the risk of GVHD. Giving ruxolitinib with tacrolimus and methotrexate may prevent GVHD in pediatric and young adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants.

Secondary Objective: * To characterize the safety profile including cumulative adverse drug reactions. * To evaluate the potential immunogenicity of SAR440234. * To assess any preliminary evidence of hematologic response in the Dose Escalation Part.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of 211\^astatine(At)-BC8-B10 before donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or mixed-phenotype acute leukemia. Radioactive substances, such as astatine-211, linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as BC8, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells and have less of an effect on healthy cells before donor stem cell transplant.
The purpose of Phase I of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of the investigational drug, OTS167, and that of Phase II of this study is to confirm the potential response benefit of OTS167. OTS167 is a maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) inhibitor which demonstrated antitumor properties in laboratory tests. It is being developed as an anti-cancer drug. In this study OTS167 will be administrated to patients with AML, ALL, advanced MDSs, advanced MPNs, or advanced CML.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well donor umbilical cord blood transplant with or without ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor umbilical cord blood transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's cells. When the healthy stem cells and ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It is not yet known whether giving donor umbilical cord blood transplant plus ex-vivo expanded cord blood progenitor cells is more effective than giving a donor umbilical cord blood transplant alone.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of posaconazole and micafungin in preventing fungal infections after chemotherapy for acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. When people take chemotherapy, they are more likely to get infections. Posaconazole has been approved for the prevention of fungal infections in patients who receive induction chemotherapy for acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Posaconazole is available only as an oral suspension and has to be given with food. After chemotherapy, many patients are not able to tolerate food or oral medication because of severe mucositis. Patients unable to tolerate food and oral medications cannot take posaconazole. Micafungin is an antifungal medication that is given only intravenously. Micafungin is approved for the treatment of certain fungal infections and for preventing fungal infections in patients who receive bone marrow transplant. The investigators know that micafungin is safe. Micafungin has not been tested for the prevention of fungal infections in patients receiving chemotherapy for acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Because micafungin is given by vein, it can be given even in patients who cannot take food or medications by mouth after chemotherapy. In this study the investigators want to compare micafungin to posaconazole when given for the prevention of fungal infections in leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome patients.
This phase I trial studies pretargeted radioimmunotherapy and donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant employing fludarabine phosphate and total-body irradiation (TBI) to treat patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate, and TBI before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can be combined with fludarabine phosphate and TBI to find cancer cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Pretargeted radioimmunotherapy (PRIT) allows for further improved targeting of tumor cells over standard directly labeled antibodies.
An open-label phase 1 study to assess safety and efficacy of once-weekly STA-9090 (ganetespib) in subjects with AML, ALL and blast-phase CML.
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as clofarabine and melphalan, before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of clofarabine when given together with high-dose melphalan followed by a donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of iodine I 131monoclonal antibody BC8 when given together with fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, total-body irradiation, and donor bone marrow transplant, and to see how well they work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has spread to nearby or other places in the body (advanced), or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Also, radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclophosphamide together with mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus after the transplant may stop this from happening. Giving a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody together with donor stem cell transplant, fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus may be an effective treatment for advanced acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes.
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from the patient's cancer cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells. Giving vaccine therapy together with donor lymphocyte infusion after a stem cell transplant from the patient's brother or sister may kill any cancer cells that remain after transplant. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the side effects, best dose, and how well vaccine therapy with or without donor lymphocyte infusion works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or multiple myeloma undergoing donor stem cell transplant.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as treosulfan and fludarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving treosulfan and fludarabine together with a donor bone marrow transplant or a peripheral stem cell transplant may be an effective treatment for acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying giving treosulfan together with fludarabine to see how well it works in treating patients who are undergoing a donor stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sorafenib in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or chronic myelogenous 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
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as cellular adoptive immunotherapy, stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of cellular adoptive immunotherapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes that relapsed after donor stem cell transplant.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of flavopiridol in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or chronic myelogenous leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as flavopiridol, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of tanespimycin when given with cytarabine in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as tanespimycin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Tanespimycin may also help cytarabine kill more cancer cells by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving tanespimycin together with cytarabine may kill more cancer cells.
Drugs used in chemotherapy such as CCI-779 work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myelogenous leukemia in blastic phase
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of PS-341 in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia in blast phase, or myelodysplastic syndrome. PS-341 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth
Vaccines made from peptides that are found on leukemia cells may make the body build an immune response and kill cancer cells. Combining vaccine therapy with the immune adjuvant Montanide ISA-51 may be a more effective treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy when given with Montanide ISA-51 and to see how well they work in treating patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome

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 study will assess the safety and efficacy of vismodegib in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and relapsed/refractory high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Patients in Cohort 1 will receive single-agent vismodegib 150 mg orally daily. In Cohort 2, patients will receive vismodegib 150 mg orally daily in combination with cytarabine 20 mg subcutaneously for 10 days. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or patient withdrawal of consent.

In Part 1, RO5503781 will be administered in escalating doses as a single agent, and in Part 2, RO5503781 will be administered in combination with cytarabine. An optional Part 3 in which RO5503781 will be administered with cytarabine and anthracycline may be considered . In Part 4, the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of an optimized formulation of RO5503781 in combination with cytarabine will be assessed.
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.
This multi-center, open-label, Phase 1b study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of RO5045337 in combination with cytarabine in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia. In Arm A, cohorts of previously untreated patients deemed unsuitable for standard induction therapy will receive escalating oral doses of RO5045377 and cytarabine 20 mg/m2 subcutaneously daily for Days 1 to 10 of each 28-day cycle. In Arm B, cohorts of patients who have relapsed or are refractory after at least one cytarabine/anthracycline containing regimen will receive escalating oral doses of RO5045377 on Days 1 to 5 and cytarabine 1 gm/m2 intravenously on Days 1 to 6 of each 28-day cycle. Patients will receive up to 4 cycles of therapy, patients in Arm A who achieve hematologic response may continue additional cycles until disease progression.
The study is designed as a phase III, randomized, open label, multicenter, prospective, comparative trial of sirolimus and tacrolimus versus tacrolimus and methotrexate as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched, related, peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in individuals with hematologic cancer. Participants will be stratified by transplant center and will be randomly assigned to the sirolimus/tacrolimus or tacrolimus/methotrexate arms at a 1:1 ratio.
In this study, MGCD0103, a new anticancer drug under investigation, is given three times per week to elderly patients with previously untreated acute myelogenous leukemia/high risk myelodysplastic syndrome or adults with relapsed/refractory disease.
A previous preliminary study performed at Vanderbilt University with funding from the Leukemia Society of America demonstrated that the response of leukemia cells in vitro to the chemotherapeutic agent idarubicin in the microculture kinetic assay for apoptosis (MiCK assay) predicted survival in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In this previous study, achievement of complete response (CR) to induction therapy with idarubicin and cytarabine was used as the clinical indicator for determining whether leukemia specimens taken prior to treatment were sensitive or not sensitive in the MiCK assay. This group of patients has been followed for 7 years and their long term survival rates show that their responses in the MiCK assay to idarubicin but not cytarabine predict survival. In the present proposal a separate group of patients with newly diagnosed AML will be recruited to provide leukemia cell samples that will be used to establish criteria for sensitivity and non-sensitivity to idarubicin and cytarabine in the MiCK assay. The achievement of CR will be used to determine in vitro sensitivity as it was done in the previous study. With the in vitro sensitivities as determined in this proposed study, the long term survivals of patients in the previous study will be analyzed prospectively. The proposed study is expected to have an approximate duration of one year. Patient population will include newly diagnosed AML patients with both de novo AML and AML arising from a previously diagnosed myelodysplastic syndrome. The study will not include patients with previously treated leukemia that has relapsed
