Acute Myeloid Leukemia Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to test the safety, effects, and recommended dose of an investigational drug, ziftomenib, in addition to the standard treatment on blood cancer with Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (allo-HCT). This study plans to learn more about ziftomenib, which targets and inhibits negative interactions within cancer cells related to AML, when given after allo-HCT, to determine if it improves outcomes following allo-HCT. The name of the study drug involved in this study is: • Ziftomenib Read Less

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of an investigational drug called CFI-400945 alone and in combination with azacitidine. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended dose (RD) of SGR-2921. Read Less

This study will assess the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of ⍺/β CD3+ T-cell and CD19+ B-cell depletion in allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML), high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and lymphoma. Subjects will receive an allogeneic stem cell transplant that has been depleted of ⍺/β CD3+ T-cells and CD19+ B-cells using the Miltenyi CliniMACS Prodigy® system. Read Less

The goal of this phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label, singe arm dose escalation and expansion study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of CTX-712 in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and higher risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS). The phase 1 part of the study consists of sequential standard 3 + 3 dose escalation, where patients will receive ascending doses of CTX-712 to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for further clinical development. This is followed by a confirmatory phase 1 expansion cohort where an additional approximately 10 patients will be treated with CTX-712 at the RP2D to gain further confidence in the selected dose level. After RP2D is determined, Drug-Drug-Interaction cohorts will be started. The phase 2 part of the study will commence after the RP2D has been identified and confirmed and will evaluate therapeutic activity in R/R AML or R/R HR-MDS, in addition to confirmation of the safety profile.

NTX-301 is a DNMT1 inhibitor. The drug is an oral drug with preclinical data that has shown preclinical anti-leukemic efficacy. This is the first clinical trial using NTX-301 in patients with myeloid malignancies. Read Less

The objective of this study is to evaluate the maximum tolerated (MTD) of vorinostat used in combination with low-dose azacitidine after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for prevention of relapse of childhood myeloid malignancies. Read Less

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of adding itacitinib to cyclophosphamide and tacrolimus for the prevention of graft versus host disease (GVHD) in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Itacitinib is an enzyme inhibitor that may regulate the development, proliferation, and activation of immune cells important for GVHD development. Cyclophosphamide and tacrolimus are immunosuppressive agents that may prevent GVHD in patients who receive stem cell transplants. Giving itacitinib in addition to cyclophosphamide and tacrolimus may be more effective at preventing GVHD in patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplants. Read Less

This is a Phase 1b, open-label study evaluating Venetoclax in combination with intensive induction and consolidation chemotherapy in previously untreated, adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia. In Part 1, the dose escalation phase, the safety and tolerability of the combination with Venetoclax at different doses and duration will inform the appropriate dose(s) and regimen(s) for Part 2. In Part 2, the dose expansion phase, a maximum of 28 additional patients will be randomized 1:1 to the MTD determined in Part 1 and the starting dose (assuming the MTD is not the starting dose), to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug combination.

This research study uses special blood cells called multiple tumor-associated antigen (TAA)-specific T cells (a new experimental therapy) to treat patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) which has come back, or may come back, or has not gone away after standard treatment, including an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The investigators have previously used this sort of therapy to treat Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphomas that are infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV is found in cancer cells of up to half of all patients with Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This suggests that it may play a role in causing lymphoma. The cancer cells infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape being killed. The investigators previously tested whether special white blood cells (called T cells) that were trained to kill EBV-infected cells could affect these tumors, and in many patients the investigators found that giving these trained T cells causes a complete or partial response. Other cancers express specific proteins that can be targeted in the same way. The investigators have been able to infuse such tumor-targeted cells into up to 10 patients with lymphoma who do not have EBV, and seen some complete responses. Importantly, the treatment appears to be safe. Therefore, the investigators now want to test whether the investigators can direct these special T cells against other types of cancers that carry similar proteins called tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). These proteins are specific to the cancer cell, so they either do not show up, or show up in low quantities, or normal human cells. The investigators will grow T cells from patients' stem cell donors in the laboratory in a way that will train them to recognize the tumor proteins WT1, NY-ESO-1, PRAME, and Survivin, which are expressed on most AML and MDS cancer cells. The cells will be infused at least 30 days post-allogeneic stem cell transplant. In this study, the investigators want see whether these cells will be able to recognize and kill cancer cells that express these proteins. These donor-derived multiTAA-specific T cells are an investigational product not yet approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration The purpose of this study is to find the largest safe dose of donor-derived tumor protein multiTAA-specific T cells for patients with AML or MDS.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant disorder of the bone marrow and the most common form of acute leukemia in adults. Patient with AML have the shortest survival compared to other forms of leukemia. In the past 6 years, several new therapies have been approved. Biomarkers are in urgent need to guide therapeutic regimen selection in order to maximize the benefit of available therapies and minimize treatment toxicity. Current standard practice is to perform bone marrow biopsy at end of treatment cycle (each cycle around 28 days), and based on bone marrow finding, to decide further treatment plan. It is invasive and time consuming. In this study investigators will study whether tracking leukemia stem cells (LSC) in peripheral blood during early treatment cycle may provide a non-invasive method to predict therapeutic outcome at end of treatment cycle. A retrospective study found that LSC fractional change, defined by two LSC markers, named CLL1 and CD45RA, is highly correlated with therapeutic outcome. Further more, CLL1 and CD45RA positive LSC fraction demonstrates a high concordance between bone marrow and peripheral blood, offering the opportunity to track CLL1 and CD45RA positive LSC fraction non-invasively in peripheral blood during treatment. This pilot study will allow the investigators to decide whether testing CLL1 and CD45RA positive LSC in peripheral blood during leukemia treatment is feasible in clinical practice. This result will lay the foundation for designing future trials using CLL1 and CD45RA positive LSC fractional change to optimize therapeutic strategy for patients with AML. Read Less
