NCT00498316
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if combining cord blood units will be safe and result in the cells "taking" faster in recipients. The cord blood units will have their cell number increased in the lab using cells from a family member or they will be collected from an unrelated healthy donor.
NCT02801578
Ibrutinib is currently FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of CLL. However, some researchers think the approved dose may be unnecessarily high. The goal of this clinical research study is to compare 3 different daily doses of ibrutinib to learn how these doses affect the disease and your body. Researchers think that if a lower dose of ibrutinib can be found to be as effective as the currently approved dose this may help to lower the risk of side effects.
NCT02840994
The objective of the proposed clinical trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of CV301 in combination with Anti-PD1-Therapy in subjects with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The clinical trial is designed to evaluate the possible enhanced antitumor activity of CV301 with Anti-PD1-Therapy. The rationale for combining CV301 with Anti-PD1-Therapy is based on the hypothesis that CV301 can induce specific immune response in the tumor, and that in combination, Anti-PD1-Therapy may augment the T cell-mediated immune response generated by CV301 by blocking the inhibitory signal of the PD-1. The trial will include a Phase 1 portion and a Phase 1b portion with 2 cohorts. The Phase 1 portion is a dose escalation part to assess the safety and tolerability of CV301 alone, prior to moving into the combination with Anti-PD1-Therapy (the Phase 1b component). The following Phase 1b portion of the trial aims to test the safety and tolerability of the combination treatment using a two cohort approach with cohort 1 receiving CV301 plus Nivolumab and cohort 2 receiving CV301 plus Pembrolizumab.

NCT02196857
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if 5-azacitidine and sorafenib can help to control the disease in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and high risk Myelodisplastic Syndrome (MDS) with FLT3-ITD mutation. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
NCT00502983
Little is known about the epidemiologic risk factors associated with the development of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and less is known about the role that genetic susceptibility plays in the development of AML. We propose to conduct a population-based study to investigate genetic susceptibility in adult AML patients, both de novo and treatment-related in a well-defined geographical area. Using a case-control design, we will prospectively enroll 400 patients from Texas and 800 healthy controls. Controls will be recruited using random digit dialing, and will be matched to the cases by age, gender, and ethnicity. Epidemiological and demographic information will be obtained through personal interviews, and will be integrated with clinical information, cytogenetic data, and genotypic markers. Blood specimens will be collected on all participants, who will be genotyped for markers associated with activation and detoxification of chemical carcinogens, including chemotherapy drugs. Polymorphisms in genes such as cytochrome p450 (CYP2E1), glutathione S-transferases (GSTT1, GSTM1, GSTP1), epoxide hydrolase (HYL1), NADPH-quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) will be analyzed. This study will provide insight into the role that these susceptibility markers, along with clinical epidemiological, and cytogenetic factors, play in the identification of people at risk of developing AML. Understanding how genetic predisposition and exogenous exposures interact to determine AML susceptibility will allow the development of prevention strategies in the future.
NCT01664897
This pilot phase II trial studies how well erlotinib hydrochloride works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT01565668
This study will evaluate two doses of Quizartinib in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia who are also FMS-like tyrosine kinase - internal tandem duplication ( FLT3-ITD) positive. Patient will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of two treatment arms. Both treatment arms will receive Quizartinib but at different doses. The study treatment is taken orally in 28 day cycles until either disease progression occurs or an unacceptable toxicity occurs. In addition to the study assessments to evaluate the disease, blood will be drawn to measure drug levels and biomarkers. Patients will be followed for survival at three month intervals after the end of treatment.
NCT01578707
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether treatment with ibrutinib as a monotherapy results in a clinically significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS) as compared to treatment with ofatumumab in patients with relapsed or refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)
NCT00989261
AC220 will be administered as a once daily oral solution given continuously as 28-day treatment cycles, without any rest periods, until disease progression, relapse, intolerance to the drug, or elective allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
NCT01545947
The main purpose of this first study combining an investigational dual mTOR inhibitor, CC-223, with other agents (erlotinib or the investigational agent, oral azacitidine) is to establish a maximum tolerated dose level for each combination in order to evaluate their effects in future clinical trials for advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00528983
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a tablet form of azacitidine that taken by mouth is safe. This Phase I study will also look at different doses and different treatment schedules in order to better understand the effects (positive and negative) of oral azacitidine on the body and on the disease MDS, AML and CMML.
NCT01666444
The purpose of this study is to compare the overall survival of patients treated with VTX-2337 + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) versus those treated with PLD alone in women with recurrent or persistent, epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. VTX-2337, a small molecule agonist of Toll-like Receptor 8 (TLR8), activates multiple components of the innate immune system and is being developed as a novel therapeutic agent for use in oncology. Experimental data obtained in an animal model of ovarian cancer supports the combination of VTX-2337 with PLD. In this model, the combination of VTX-2337 and PLD resulted in a significant reduction in tumor growth compared to either agent alone and an increase in the number of T lymphocytes infiltrating the tumor. The combination of PLD and VTX-2337 has been tested in a small number of women with ovarian cancer in a Phase 1b study and appears to be generally well-tolerated.
NCT00547651
This study drug (Amrubicin) is believed to work by stopping the tumor cells in your body from growing. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of amrubicin compared to topotecan in the treatment of small cell lung cancer.
NCT01903993
This multicenter, open-label, randomized study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Atezolizumab compared with docetaxel in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer after platinum failure. Participants will be randomized to receive either Atezolizumab 1200 milligram (mg) intravenously every 3 weeks or docetaxel 75 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) intravenously every 3 weeks. Treatment with Atezolizumab may be continued as long as participants are experiencing clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator, i.e., in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or symptomatic deterioration attributed to disease progression.
NCT01900652
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the study drug known as LY2875358, administered alone or in combination with a second drug named Erlotinib, in participants affected by a defined type of lung cancer (MET biomarker diagnostic positive Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer) that experienced a disease progression during the most recent treatment with Erlotinib.
NCT02909972
Phase 1/1b, open label, multi-center dose escalation and dose expansion study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK (pharmacokinetics), PD (pharmacodynamics) and anti-tumor effects of ALRN-6924 alone or in combination with cytarabine in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome with wild-type (WT) TP53
NCT00342316
This study compares overall survival between patients with acute myeloid leukemia, who are in complete remission following initial treatment with chemotherapy and whose remission is maintained either with a transplantation of stem cells obtained from a sibling or unrelated donor or with standard treatment, which is additional chemotherapy. The study hypothesis is that the group transplanted with stem cells from a donor will have a superior survival compared with patients treated with standard of care.
