Dexamethasone Treatment Options in Arkansas

The primary purpose of the phase 1 part of the study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of AMG 701 monotherapy to identify the RP2D for AMG 701 monotherapy followed by a dose-confirmation part to gather further safety data for AMG 701 monotherapy at the RP2D in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). In addition, this study will include a sequential dose exploration part to identify the RP2D of AMG 701 in combination with pomalidomide, with and without dexamethasone (AMG 701-P+/-d). Phase 2 will consist of the dose-expansion part to gain further efficacy and safety experience with AMG 701 monotherapy in adult subjects with RRMM. Read Less

This study will assess whether adding one of the newest multiple myeloma therapies, daratumumab, into the Total Therapy approach helps patients live longer with fewer side effects Read Less

This phase III trial compares the combination of four drugs (daratumumab, bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone) to the use of a three drug combination (daratumumab, lenalidomide and dexamethasone). Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Chemotherapy drugs, such as lenalidomide, 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. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as dexamethasone lower the body's immune response and are used with other drugs in the treatment of some types of cancer. Adding bortezomib to daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone may be more effective in shrinking the cancer or preventing it from returning, compared to continuing on daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone.

This phase III trial studies how well lenalidomide and dexamethasone works with or without daratumumab in treating patients with high-risk smoldering myeloma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as lenalidomide and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as daratumumab, may induce changes in the body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide and dexamethasone with daratumumab may work better in treating patients with smoldering myeloma. Read Less

There have been four previous Total Therapy (TT1 through IIIB) studies for multiple myeloma at the MIRT from 1989 to present. Results have shown that participants treated on these studies had better outcomes (meaning they have lived longer and had better responses to treatment) when compared to individuals treated with standard chemotherapy. Past studies conducted at the MIRT have shown that participants presenting to MIRT who have already received treatment for myeloma tend to have shorter remissions (disappearance of signs and symptoms of myeloma) and do not survive as long as participants who come to MIRT with untreated myeloma. Researchers at MIRT think that one reason for this is may be that the myeloma cells re-grow in the time when participants are not receiving treatment because they are recovering from high-dose chemotherapy. In this study, participants will receive several chemotherapy drugs previously shown to be effective in myeloma, but in lower doses and in shorter cycles. It is hoped that by giving the drugs in this way, myeloma cells will not have time to re-grow between cycles, therefore resulting in longer remissions. This study is being done in an attempt to improve the remission rate and the survival time for participants with high-risk myeloma. Read Less

Note: The study data was transferred to zr pharma\& following the divestment of panobinostat to pharma\&. Prior to study completion under the sponsorship of Secura Bio, the study was initiated and conducted in part under the sponsorship of Novartis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of 3 different regimens of panobinostat (20 milligrams \[mg\] thrice a week \[TIW\], 20 mg twice a week \[BIW\], and 10 mg TIW) in combination with subcutaneous bortezomib and dexamethasone and to provide exposure, safety and efficacy data to identify the optimal regimen of panobinostat in a randomized, 3-arm parallel design. This study will also assess the impact of administering subcutaneous bortezomib (in combination with panobinostat and dexamethasone) twice weekly for 4 cycles, and then weekly starting from Cycle 5 until disease progression in participants ≤ 75 years of age. Participants \> 75 years of age will receive subcutaneous bortezomib weekly for the entire treatment period (in combination with panobinostat and dexamethasone) until disease progression. Participants will be treated until disease progression or until they discontinue earlier due to unacceptable toxicity or for other reasons. Participants who discontinued study treatment for reasons other than disease progression will be followed for efficacy every 6 weeks. All participants will be followed for survival until the last participant entering long-term follow-up has completed a 3-year survival follow-up or discontinued earlier. Read Less

This is a prospective, multi-center, pilot feasibility study to document the effects of adventitial delivery of temsirolimus or temsirolimus with dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection, USP, after revascularization of femoropopliteal lesions in symptomatic patients with moderate to severe claudication (Rutherford 2-3) or critical limb ischemia (CLI) with rest pain (Rutherford 4). Subjects will be followed for up to 60 months post index procedure. Read Less

This phase III trial studies combination chemotherapy with or without lestaurtinib with to see how well they work in treating younger patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of stop cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Lestaurtinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without lestaurtinib in treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Read Less

Toward improving the therapeutic index of standard TT3 (S-TT3), the investigators will employ a randomized Phase III trial design to determine whether S-TT3 treatment-related toxicities can be reduced by 50% in TT3-Lite (L-TT3). Note: Randomization has been discontinued and accrual is closed to the L-TT3 arm. This trial is currently enrolling as a single-arm trial for patients to receive S-TT3. Read Less

There have been four previous Total Therapy (TT1 through IIIB) studies for multiple myeloma at the MIRT from 1989 to present. Results have shown that participants treated on these studies had better outcomes (meaning they have lived longer and had better responses to treatment) when compared to individuals treated with standard chemotherapy. Past studies conducted at the MIRT and at other institutions have shown that participants with high-risk features by gene array studies tend to have shorter remissions (disappearance of signs and symptoms of myeloma) and do not survive as long as participants with low-risk myeloma. Researchers at MIRT think that one reason for this is that the myeloma cells re-grow in the time when participants are not receiving treatment because they are recovering from high-dose chemotherapy. In this study, participants will receive several chemotherapy drugs previously shown to be effective in myeloma, but in lower doses and in shorter cycles. It is hoped that by giving the drugs in this way, myeloma cells will not have time to re-grow between cycles, therefore resulting in longer remissions.
