Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)

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 11 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 IbII 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.

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 drugsazacitidine, venetoclax, and tagraxofuspto treat patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia AML who have leftover leukemia cells that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This Phase 12 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 children and adults with blood cancers and other related disorders. This observational study involves patients with hematologic malignancies and various inherited and acquired disorders affecting the blood and immune system. The main goal is to monitor how well neutrophil recovery occurs after transplantation using these unlicensed CBUs in multiple institutions. Participants receive unlicensed cryopreserved CBUs as part of their transplant treatment. The study includes patients of any age receiving these CBUs for approved indications. The protocol focuses on the access and distribution of these unlicensed units rather than a specific treatment intervention. The study gathers data from recipients who receive these CBUs, tracking outcomes after transplantation. Participants are monitored for neutrophil recovery at 60 and 100 days after transplant, defined by a neutrophil count of at least 500mm3. Researchers also collect information on infection transmission, infusion reactions, survival rates at one year, and incidence of acute and chronic graft versus host disease. Platelet recovery is also evaluated. Safety and efficacy outcomes are followed over time to better understand the effects of unlicensed CBUs in this patient population.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma DLBCL is the most common and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, with rapid tumor growth and symptoms varying by tumor location. The disease is classified using advanced methods like immunohistochemistry and molecular testing to guide prognosis and personalized treatment. Despite standard immunochemotherapy curing 60-70% of patients, many experience treatment failure or relapse, and options after second-line therapies remain limited. This observational study examines treatment patterns, demographic, and clinical characteristics of DLBCL patients in the Middle East and Africa. It includes two patient groups those newly diagnosed and eligible for treatment, and those with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who have failed previous therapies. The study aims to explore access to novel therapies and understand real-world treatment approaches in these regions. Participants will be observed over 22 months, during which researchers will document treatment regimens, patient risk profiles, and access to new treatments. Data collection includes patient demographics, disease characteristics, and treatment outcomes. The study does not involve experimental treatments but gathers detailed information to inform future care strategies for DLBCL patients.

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 a Phase 1 study involving participants with advanced B-cell lymphomas and solid tumors. This first-in-human, open-label study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of IM-1021. The study includes a dose escalation phase to find safe and tolerable doses and an expansion phase to further evaluate these doses in specific cancer types. The study has two parts Part A focuses on escalating doses of IM-1021 given intravenously to determine safety and recommended dosing schedules, including the possibility of alternative dosing. Part B involves expanding participant groups to further test safety and early effectiveness of IM-1021 at doses chosen from Part A. Participants receive the study drug intravenously on an intermittent basis throughout these phases. Participants will undergo multiple assessments including monitoring for treatment-related adverse events, pharmacokinetic blood tests, and evaluations of anti-tumor effects from week 6 until disease progression or study discontinuation. Safety and tolerability will be tracked from the first dose until about 37 days after the last dose. The study duration spans from screening, treatment, and follow-up with data collection continuing up to the study end in 2029.

Researchers are evaluating cytokine induced memory-like natural killer CIML NK cells combined with IL-2 in patients aged 12 years and older who have Acute Myeloid Leukemia AML, Myelodysplastic Syndromes MDS, Myeloproliferative Neoplasms MPN, or Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia JMML that returned after stem cell transplantation. This Phase I clinical trial aims to test the safety and find the appropriate dose for this investigational treatment, which has not been approved by the FDA for relapsed disease. Participants receive intravenous infusions of CIML NK cells on day 0. Before this, patients are given chemotherapy drugs fludarabine daily for three doses starting on day -5 and cyclophosphamide on days -5 and -4 to prepare the body. The study includes both adult and pediatric patients who have relapsed after haploidentical or HLA-matched stem cell transplants. The treatment is followed for safety and response over several weeks. During the study, participants will be monitored closely for safety for six weeks and assessed for treatment response after 28 days. Further follow-ups include checking for leukemia-free survival and overall survival at 100 days and one year, as well as monitoring for acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease over several months to one year. The trial involves regular evaluations including bone marrow tests, blood tests, and clinical assessments to track disease status and side effects throughout participation.
