Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)

Researchers are studying the use of 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in patients with cancer. This phase I trial aims to evaluate how well FLT PET imaging measures tumor growth and the activity of the DNA synthetic pathway in various cancers, including solid tumors and blood cancers. The study also seeks to determine how effective this imaging method is at detecting lesions and assessing response to treatment. Participants receive up to four FLT PET imaging procedures. During each procedure, a small amount of the FLT tracer compound is injected into the vein, followed by PET scan data collection for two hours to measure tumor growth. Blood samples may be taken during the scans, and urine samples collected afterward to analyze breakdown products of the tracer. Throughout the study, patients undergo assessments including PET or CT PET scans to measure tracer uptake and retention in tumors and normal organs. Researchers also evaluate changes in key enzymes related to DNA synthesis before and after therapy. These evaluations help monitor tumor activity and treatment response. The total time participants spend in the scanner during imaging is up to two hours per session, with a focus on capturing detailed tumor growth information.

Researchers are evaluating SCTC21C, a biological treatment, in patients with relapsed or refractory CD38-positive hematologic malignancies. This multicenter, open-label Phase I trial aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, preliminary anti-tumor activity, and immune response to SCTC21C. The study includes a dose-finding stage to determine safe dosage levels and a dose-expansion stage to further evaluate selected doses. In the dose-finding stage, participants receive increasing doses of SCTC21C ranging from 0.01 mg up to 960 mg. In the dose-expansion stage, at least 20 participants are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive two different doses determined from the earlier stage. SCTC21C is given by subcutaneous injection weekly for the first two cycles, then every two weeks for cycles three to six, and every four weeks thereafter until disease progression or unacceptable side effects occur. Participants will be closely monitored throughout the study with assessments including safety evaluations, adverse event tracking up to 45 days after the last dose, and measuring dose-limiting toxicities during the first 28-day cycle. Researchers will also evaluate tumor response over about one year of treatment. The study expects participants to have regular visits for treatment and monitoring, with the total duration varying depending on individual response and tolerability.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of TQB3909 tablets combined with azacitidine in adults with myeloid malignancies, including acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. This open, multi-center clinical trial is designed as a Phase Ib/II study to better understand how this combination treatment works in these blood cancers. Participants receive TQB3909 tablets once daily in 28-day treatment cycles along with azacitidine. The study focuses on monitoring how well patients tolerate the treatment and its effects on their disease. The trial includes assessment of various response rates and survival outcomes over several weeks. Throughout the trial, participants undergo regular evaluations including monitoring for adverse events and laboratory tests for up to 24 weeks. Researchers measure remission rates, duration of remission, and survival outcomes up to 60 weeks. Participants' safety and response to treatment are closely tracked during the study.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and feasibility of using bone marrow transplants from deceased donors in patients with acute and chronic leukemias, myelodysplastic syndrome, and certain lymphomas. The trial is a first-in-human study that explores how well these transplants work when combined with different conditioning treatments before transplantation. This study is led by Ossium Health, Inc. and includes adult patients who meet specific matching and health criteria. Participants receive one of several pre-transplant conditioning regimens, either myeloablative conditioning (MAC) or reduced intensity conditioning (RIC), involving various combinations of chemotherapy drugs and total body irradiation. After the transplant of Ossium HPC, Marrow, patients receive post-transplant treatments including Cyclophosphamide, Tacrolimus, Mycophenolate Mofetil, and Filgrastim. The study has two experimental cohorts and includes close monitoring after transplantation. During the study, patients are monitored closely for safety outcomes such as neutrophil engraftment by day 28 and serious adverse events by day 56, with follow-up continuing for one year. Researchers will assess immune recovery, transplant-related complications like graft-versus-host disease, infections, and disease relapse rates. The total participation includes a safety evaluation period of 56 days and extended follow-up to track longer-term outcomes and survival.

This research aims to monitor participants who previously received TSC-100 or TSC-101 T-cell receptor engineered T-cell (TCR-T) therapies in the TSCAN-001 study. The goal is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of these investigational treatments over a 15-year period following their administration, focusing on people treated for conditions such as AML, ALL, and MDS. Participants will not receive any new study drug during this long-term follow-up study. Instead, they will be observed after completing the initial TSCAN-001 trial, while continuing any other cancer treatments as necessary. Monitoring will include a period lasting 15 years from the date of their original TCR-T cell therapy. During the study, participants will be evaluated for treatment-emergent adverse events to assess safety and tolerability. Researchers will also monitor overall survival, relapse-free survival, and progression-free survival over the 15 years. This observational study involves regular assessments to track long-term outcomes without administering additional investigational treatments.

Researchers are investigating a new combination of three drugs—azacitidine, venetoclax, and tagraxofusp—to treat patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who have leftover leukemia cells that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This Phase 1/2 clinical trial aims to assess the safety and how well this drug combination controls residual AML and prevents the disease from coming back. The study builds on FDA approvals of venetoclax and azacitidine together for AML and tagraxofusp alone for another leukemia type, but this combination is not yet FDA-approved for AML treatment. The study involves two groups of participants. In Phase 1, up to 12 people receive escalating doses of tagraxofusp combined with fixed doses of azacitidine and venetoclax to find the safest and best dose. Treatment cycles last 28 days, with azacitidine given daily for seven days, tagraxofusp infused on days 4 to 6, and venetoclax taken on days 1 and 14. In Phase 2, 19 participants receive the recommended dose of tagraxofusp plus azacitidine and venetoclax with the same schedule. Bone marrow biopsies and aspirations occur regularly during treatment to monitor response. After treatment, participants are followed for up to two years. Participants will have regular visits including blood tests, imaging scans like CT, MRI, or PET, heart function tests, and bone marrow examinations. Researchers will monitor for side effects, measure disease remission, and check for minimal residual disease to evaluate treatment impact. The study expects to last about four years with around 31 participants. Outcomes such as remission duration, survival, relapse rates, and safety events will be assessed during treatment and follow-up.

Researchers are studying the use of unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) for transplantation in both pediatric and adult patients with various blood-related cancers and other disorders affecting the blood-forming system. This observational study aims to evaluate outcomes such as the recovery of a certain level of white blood cells after transplantation, as well as the incidence of infections, infusion reactions, survival rates, and graft-versus-host disease over time. The study involves patients receiving unlicensed CBUs at multiple U.S. transplant centers. These CBUs are used for patients with hematologic malignancies and other blood disorders. The protocol collects data on patients who receive these unlicensed transplant units, without administering a new treatment but observing the outcomes after transplantation. Participants will be monitored for neutrophil recovery at 60 and 100 days post-transplant, along with assessments of infection transmission, infusion reactions, survival one year after transplant, and occurrences of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease. Platelet engraftment levels will also be tracked. The study includes patients of any age and follows them through the transplantation and recovery process to gather information on these key outcomes.

Researchers are evaluating whether telehealth music therapy can be a practical treatment for cognitive difficulties in adults who have survived blood cancers such as lymphoma, leukemia, or myeloma. The study also examines if music therapy and music education can help improve cognitive function as well as symptoms like anxiety, depression, and fatigue in this population. This pilot trial is exploring these effects in hematologic cancer survivors who experience cancer-related cognitive dysfunction. Participants will be assigned to one of three groups: the experimental music therapy (MT) group, the therapist-attention music education (TAME) control group, or a wait-list control (WLC) group receiving usual care. Those in the MT and TAME groups will receive 12 weekly 60-minute sessions, with homework assignments between sessions to reinforce skills and concepts. The WLC group completes assessments during a 24-week wait period and can later choose to receive either the MT or TAME intervention. During the study, participants will complete assessments to measure the feasibility of telehealth music therapy, defined by completing at least 9 of the 12 sessions. Researchers will monitor cognitive function, mood symptoms, and fatigue. Participants must be able to complete study assessments independently and consent in English. The total study duration includes the intervention period and follow-up assessments to evaluate outcomes related to cancer-related cognitive dysfunction.

Researchers are studying the safety, tolerability, and preliminary effects of CG009301 for injection in adults with relapsed or refractory blood cancers, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This Phase 1, open-label trial aims to find the best dose and dosing schedule for CG009301 and to better understand its safety profile in participants who have limited treatment options. Participants will receive CG009301 through an intravenous infusion diluted in sodium chloride daily for 7 days per 28-day cycle. The study has two phases: a dose-escalation phase for various relapsed or refractory blood cancers, followed by a dose-expansion phase focusing on AML, HR-MDS, and ALL. Treatment continues until the disease progresses. During the trial, participants will undergo regular assessments including safety monitoring, laboratory tests, and evaluations of drug levels in the body. Researchers will measure outcomes such as the recommended dose for expansion, duration of treatment cycles, adverse events, and clinical responses over periods up to 20 months or longer. Participants are expected to comply with scheduled visits and tests throughout the study duration.

Researchers are evaluating IM-1021, an antibody-drug conjugate, in participants with advanced cancers including B-cell lymphomas and solid tumors. This Phase 1 open-label study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and early anti-tumor effects of IM-1021. The study includes a dose escalation phase to find safe doses and schedules, followed by an expansion phase to further assess these doses in specific cancer types. IM-1021 is given intravenously on a 21-day cycle, starting at 2 mg/kg, with alternative dosing schedules possible. The study has two parts: Part A focuses on escalating doses to evaluate safety and determine recommended doses, while Part B expands treatment in groups with specific cancer types to further evaluate safety and preliminary activity. Participants will undergo regular safety assessments including monitoring for treatment-related side effects from the first dose through 37 days after the last dose. Researchers will also measure drug levels in the body and evaluate anti-tumor activity starting at week 6 until disease progression or study discontinuation. The total study duration varies per participant. Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic data will guide future development of IM-1021.
