In resource-constrained settings such as Malawi, survival rates for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are dismally low compared to high-resource environments. This disparity highlights the urgent need for feasible treatment protocols tailored to the realities of these regions where most children with cancer are treated. In 2023, after reviewing favorable clinical trials results in other resource-limited settings, the Kamuzu Central Hospital (KCH) pediatric cancer unit adopted an evidence-based intensity-adapted clinical practice guideline (CPG) developed by the International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) as its standard of care for the treatment of pediatric AML, aiming to balance curative intent with manageable toxicity. The current study is a prospective evaluation of outcomes of standard of care in Malawi using the SIOP CPG in a real-world setting. The LEAP study aims to assess the implementation of the SIOP AML guidelines at KCH in an effort to continually improve outcomes in Malawi. The study is an observational-implementation design with a composite effectiveness-implementation outcome called Implementation Success. Implementation Success combines feasibility, the ability of patients to complete all aspects of the CPG, with effectiveness, the ability to maintain historical rates of complete remission of 40% at the treatment center. This prospective cohort study will enroll children under 18 years diagnosed with de novo AML at KCH. Implementation Success will be the primary endpoint, with secondary endpoints including CPG fidelity, long-term survival, adverse events, and hematologic recovery times. Patient-reported outcomes will also be collected to assess the impact of treatment on quality of life. This will be the first prospective study of pediatric AML in sub-Saharan Africa, providing critical data on the management of AML in low-resource settings. By assessing the implementation of a context-adapted CPG, the study will contribute to the global effort to improve pediatric AML outcomes in resource-constrained environments. The findings will serve to guide practitioners in Malawi and similar settings, and the data generated will be invaluable for future clinical decisions and CPG development.
NCT07148180
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and efficacy of a new drug combination with three agents, azacitidine, venetoclax and tagraxofusp. Leftover (residual) leukemia disease that is not visible by eye can be increase the chance of disease recurrence. This research study is to determine if the combination therapy can safely help to control residual Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and to prevent disease recurrence. The names of the study drugs involved in this study are: * Tagraxofusp (a type of CD123-directed cytotoxin) * Azacitidine (a type of standard of care cytidine nucleoside analog) * Venetoclax (a type of standard of care BCL-2 inhibitor)
NCT05086315
This is an open-label, multicenter, Phase 1/Phase 2, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and anti-leukemic activity of SAR443579 in various hematological malignancies.
NCT05534620
This study aim is to assess, if treosulfan pharmacokinetics are influenced by declined renal function and by race/ethnicity of patients. The study also aims to determine an appropriate safe dose of treosulfan, when patient's renal function is impaired. The participants of this study are undergoing allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for treatment of acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

A Randomized, Single Oral Dose, Open Label, Two Treatment, Crossover study to investigate the bioequivalence of the Test Product Azacitidine 300 mg Film coated tablets relative to Reference Product Onureg® 300 mg Film Coated Tablets in adult patients with AML under fasting conditions
NCT06790680
The proposal arises from the increasingly pressing need to have a program of therapy for the prevention of relapse after allogeneic transplantation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplasia, especially if they undergo transplantation with positive minimal residual disease. These therapeutic approaches include molecular target drugs (for example, FLT-3 inhibitors when this gene lesion is present) or apoptosis inducers in combination with hypomethylating agents (for example, the combination of venetoclax and azacitidine or decitabine) or adoptive immunotherapy (for example, with infusion of donor lymphocytes). To date, most of these therapeutic approaches are used in the phase of hematological relapse of the disease; less often they are used in the phase of persistence of minimal residual disease at the molecular level or in the phase of loss of molecular chimerism on CD34+ cells, also due to the prescribing constraints of the competent authorities (AIFA). It is believed that the collection of the Italian experience can provide important information on the use of different therapeutic platforms, in different settings. This information could be the starting point for the design of prospective and multicenter studies to be proposed in the near future.
NCT06345365
Investigator proposed to apply the new dosage form of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposomes to the clinical treatment of AML, while combining with cytarabine and azacitidine to form the MA+AZA treatment regimen(Mitoxantrone liposome +Ara-Cytarabine+Azacitidine), which would provide an optimal induction treatment regimen for patients with primary AML by comparing with the traditional chemotherapy regimen, DA+AZA (Daunorubicin+Ara-Cytarabine+Azacitidine).
NCT01497002
Improvement of the treatment-results in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia through intensification of consolidation chemotherapy and/or allografting as consolidative immunotherapy
NCT04217278
Treatment options for older adults with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) and Myelodysplasia (MDS) are limited. Although stem cell transplantation remains one of the most effective treatments it is associated with severe side effects which have until recently prevented its use in older adults. In the last decade the use of reduced intensity transplants has allowed the extension of the potentially curative effect of transplantation to older patients in whom it was previously precluded. Although a major advance such transplants are associated with a high risk of disease relapse particularly in patients with high risk disease. This study will evaluate new transplant strategies with the aim of improving the outcome of patients with AML and high risk MDS after stem cell transplantation. Three approaches to improve transplant outcome will be studied: 1. Comparing the new pre-transplant consolidation therapy vyxeos with the standard consolidation therapy (Randomisation 1 is now closed to recruitment). 2. Comparing new conditioning therapies in patients under the age of 55 years 3. Comparing new conditioning therapies in patients aged 55 and over All patients will be followed up for a minimum of 2 years.
NCT04326764
Aim of this prospective randomized trial is to compare maintenance treatment with panobinostat interspersed with donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) versus the standard approach of pre-emptive DLI alone in patients with poor-risk AML/MDS having favorably received an allogeneic HSCT followed by engraftment, donor chimerism and hematopoietic reconstitution.
NCT01028716
This phase II trial studies how well donor peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant works in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Cyclophosphamide when added to tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil is safe and effective in preventing severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in most patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing transplantation of bone marrow from half-matched (haploidentical) donors. This approach has extended the transplant option to patients who do not have matched related or unrelated donors, especially for patients from ethnic minority groups. The graft contains cells of the donor's immune system which potentially can recognize and destroy the patient's cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Rejection of the donor's cells by the patient's own immune system is prevented by giving low doses of chemotherapy (fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide) and total-body irradiation before transplant. Patients can experience low blood cell counts after transplant. Using stem cells and immune cells collected from the donor's circulating blood may result in quicker recovery of blood counts and may be more effective in treating the patient's disease than using bone marrow.
NCT03217838
This is a Phase I/II clinical study to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and schedule, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of AZD2811 monotherapy or with combination agent(s) in relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) participants or treatment-naïve AML participants not eligible for intensive induction therapy. In addition, the study will explore the potential clinical activity by assessing anti-tumour activity in participants. The study was terminated early as a result of AstraZeneca's strategic review across the AZD2811 programme. Part A data were collected for initial cohorts; the MTD/recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) dose and schedule of AZD2811 monotherapy or with combination agents were not determined. Part B of the study was not initiated
NCT02724163
The main purpose of this study is : 1. To establish which number of doses of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (up to a maximum of 3 doses) is tolerated and can be safety delivered in combination with cytarabine plus mitoxantrone or liposomal daunorubicin in induction 2. To compare mitoxantrone (anthracenedione) \& cytarabine with liposomal daunorubicin (anthracycline) \& cytarabine as induction therapy. (Randomisation 1 (R1) closed early to recruitment on 8th September 2017, due to liposomal daunorubicin manufacturing issues resulting in unavailability of the drug.) 3. To compare a single dose of gemtuzumab ozogamicin with the optimum tolerated number of doses of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (identified by the dose-finding study) when combined with induction chemotherapy. 4. To compare two consolidation regimens: high dose cytarabine (HD Ara-C) and fludarabine \& cytarabine (FLA) in standard risk patients. 5. To compare the toxicity and effectiveness of two haemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) conditioning regimens of different intensity: conventional myeloablative conditioning (MAC) with busulfan/cyclophosphamide and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) with fludarabine/busulfan.
NCT04106076
This is a Phase I, open-label, dose escalation study of UCART123 administered intravenously to patients with newly diagnosed CD123 positive adverse genetic risk acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) defined in the ELN adverse genetic risk group (2017). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of multiple infusions of UCART123 and to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).
NCT02333058
The primary goal of this study is to evaluate an alternative myeloablative, but reduced toxicity conditioning regimen in children, to describe the safety and efficacy of intravenous (i.v.) Treosulfan administered as part of a standardised Fludarabine-containing conditioning and to contribute to the current pharmacokinetic model to be able to finally give age (or body surface area) dependent dose recommendations. The treatment regimens given in the protocol MC-FludT.17/M are based on sufficient clinical safety and efficacy data. Considering the vital indication for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation of the selected patient population, the risk-benefit assessment is therefore reasonably in favour of the study conduct.
NCT01422603
This study has been designed to investigate the safety and feasibility of using a chemotherapy drug, Clofarabine, to reduce the disease burden before a donor transplant, in patients with high risk Acute Myeloid Leukaemia or Myelodysplasia (MDS). In this study Clofarabine chemotherapy will be given a few days before a reduced or full intensity donor stem cell transplant and without waiting for normal blood counts to recover. It is hoped that this approach may improve the outcome for patients with high risk AML and MDS after their transplant.
NCT02844257
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a haematological malignant disease characterized by an uncontrolled proliferation of immature hematopoietic cells. Over the last two decades, clinical trials have demonstrated an improved response rate in younger adult AML. Aggressive induction plus more potent intensification programs with chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy plus stem cell transplantation (SCT) has improved treatment results. Advances in understanding disease biology, improvements in induction and consolidation program, and better supportive care have also all contributed. A number of clinical and laboratory characteristics influence the response to treatment and, thus, the survival of patients with AML. Among them, cytogenetic at diagnosis represents the most important prognostic variable. However, other factors may have a prognostic value and may influence patient's outcome. Anaemia and thrombocytopenia are cardinal manifestations of AML. Over the last decades, it has become apparent that the frequency of allogeneic blood transfusions can modify host immunity and clinical outcomes. Anaemia has long been recognized as an adverse prognostic factor in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), which represents a pre-leukemic disease. Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion need was identified as a strong and independent risk factor for survival in MDS, for which the presence and severity of anaemia were attributed to a clonally advanced and biologically more aggressive disease. Based on these data, the investigators retrospectively assessed the prognostic value of RBC and platelet transfusions at the time of diagnosis and the frequency of transfusions during the first induction course of chemotherapy in a large unselected group of patients with previously untreated AML.
NCT01236144
The AML18 Pilot Trial will evaluate the feasibility of three interventions that are planned to be included in the forthcoming NCRI AML18 Trial. One intervention will be to evaluate combining the Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor AC220 with three courses of standard DAE (Daunorubicin, Ara-C, Etoposide). AC220 will be given following each treatment course, daily by mouth for 7, 14 or 21 days. AC220 will be evaluated at 3 dose levels of 60, 90 and 135 mg flat dose. A 4th dose level of 40 mg will be introduced should patients not respond well to 60 mg. The second intervention to be tested is the combination of the CXCR4 inhibitor Plerixafor with up to three courses of the chemotherapy combination of DClo (Daunorubicin, Clofarabine). Patients/investigators will be able to choose which intervention to enter. Depending on recruitment requirements, only one intervention might be available at any one time. The third intervention Patients will receive 3 treatments of 100 mg of ganetespib on days 1, 8 and 15 of each course where day 1 is the first day of the chemotherapy. The chemotherapy will be DAE/DAE/DA. Three courses of chemotherapy will be given each of which will be associated with 3 administrations of ganetespib.
