Summary: Treatment with intensive chemotherapy in AML results in approximately 70% survival in newly diagnosed patients. Prognosis at relapse is worse and is in the 30-40% range. Relapse treatment generally consists of one course of fludarabine, cytarabine and liposomal daunorubicin (FLAG-DNX), followed by a fludarabine and cytarabine course, and subsequent stem-cell transplantation. Cytarabine has been us...

Summary: This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, or double-hit lymphoma/leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate liposome, dexamethaso...

Summary: The purpose of this research study is to determine if frailty assessments can be used to predict how well patients aged 60 years and older will do after chemotherapy, CAR T-cell therapy, or allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Summary: This is a single-arm study to investigate 1-year treatment related mortality (TRM) in patients with life threatening non-malignant and malignant hematologic disorders who do not have a matched related donor for allogeneic transplantation.

Summary: This phase 1/2 study will evaluate the maximum tolerated dose, efficacy, and safety of clofarabine in patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer.

Summary: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is the most common histiocytosis in children, with an incidence of 2.6-8.9 per million. It is an inflammatory myeloid tumor with varied symptoms. Mild cases often resolve spontaneously, while severe cases can affect multiple organs and be life-threatening. LCH affecting the liver, spleen, or hematopoietic system has a poor prognosis and is high-risk group. The L...

Summary: This phase II clinical trial studies how well personalized natural killer (NK) cell therapy works after chemotherapy and umbilical cord blood transplant in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, leukemia, lymphoma or multiple myeloma. This clinical trial will test cord blood (CB) selection for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C1/x recipients based on HLA-killer-cell immunoglobulin-like rece...

Summary: It is a randomized phase 3 study comparing two conditioning regimens in children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, AML, undergoing allogenic stem cell transplantation. The primary aim is to investigate if a conditioning regimen containing one alkylator (Bu) combined with two antimetabolites (Clo and Flu) results in superior 2-year acute grade III to IV-free, chronic non-limited GvHD-free, relapse free ...

Summary: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-CSH). Recently, in the context of semi-identical (=haploidentical) HLA donors, but also of compatible HLA donors, the use of cyclophosphamide (CY) administered in high doses at early post-transplant (PT) (=PTCY) (Days +3 and +4 or +5) has shown excellent control of acute and chronic...

Objectives: * Confirm safety and tolerability of the combination regimen * Time to response with combination treatment * Overall survival The treatment regimen will comprise daily IV infusion of Fludarabine (Flu), Clofarabine (Clo) and Bisantrene (Xan) administered via central venous line and controlled-rate infusion pump with a 1-hour break between each agent infusion, amounting to a total of 6 hours for eac...

Summary: Relapse remains the main cause of death in patients with myeloid malignancies, especially after an allotransplant. Using drugs with higher anti-leukemic activity as part of the conditioning regimen is one of the strategies to decrease relapse incidence in this population. Retrospective studies have shown that clofarabine can achieve impressive results compared to the use of fludarabine in acute my...
