Leukemia clinical trials in Houston

This is a first-in-human Phase 1a/1b multicenter, open-label oncology study designed to evaluate the safety and anti-cancer activity of NX-2127 in patients with advanced B-cell malignancies.

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of ONC201 and to see how well it works in treating patients with acute leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). ONC201 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

The study is intended to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of AZD4512 in patients with relapsed/refractory B-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL).

SLS009 (formerly GFH009) is a potent and highly selective CDK9 inhibitor. In this study the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of single agent SLS009 are assessed in two dose escalation groups (Group 1 in patients with relapsed/refractory AML, Group 2 in patients with relapse/refractory lymphoma/CLL/SLL). The safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of SLS009 in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in patient with relapsed/refractory AML who have relapsed on or are refractory to venetoclax-based regimens are being assessed in five cohorts of the expansion Group 3. Groups 4 and 5 have been added to evaluate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of GFH009 in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in newly diagnosed AML patients who are less likely to benefit from standard induction treatment with venetoclax plus HMA only regimens.

This is a multicenter, first-in-human, Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and anti-tumor activity of DR-01 in adult patients with large granular lymphocytic leukemia or cytotoxic lymphomas

Patients eligible for this study have a type of blood cancer called T-cell leukemia or lymphoma (lymph gland cancer). The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No one way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research combines two different ways of fighting disease, antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are proteins that protect the body from bacterial and other diseases. T cells, or T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells including tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have shown promise treating patients with cancers, but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. T lymphocytes can kill tumor cells but there normally are not enough of them. Some researchers have taken T cells from a person's blood, grown more in the lab then given them back to the person. In some patients who've had recent bone marrow or stem cell transplant, the number of T cells in their blood may not be enough to grow in the lab. In this case, T cells may be collected from their previous transplant donor, who has a similar tissue type. The antibody used in this study, called anti-CD5, first came from mice that have developed immunity to human leukemia. This antibody sticks to T-cell leukemia or lymphoma cells because of a substance on the outside of these cells called CD5. CD5 antibodies have been used to treat people with T-cell leukemia and lymphoma. For this study, anti-CD5 has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood it is now joined to the T cells. When an antibody is joined to a T cell in this way it is called a chimeric receptor. In the lab, investigators have also found that T cells work better if stimulating proteins, such as one called CD28, are also added. Adding the CD28 makes the cells grow better and last longer in the body, giving them a better chance of killing the leukemia or lymphoma cells. In this study investigators will attach the CD5 chimeric receptor with CD28 added to it to the patient's T cells or the previous bone marrow transplant donor's T cells. The investigators will then test how long the cells last. The decision to use the bone marrow transplant donor's T cells instead of the patient's will be based on 1) whether there is an available and willing donor and 2) the likelihood of the patient's T cells being able to grow in the lab. These CD5 chimeric receptor T cells with CD28 are investigational products not approved by the FDA. UPDATE: Please note that the Autologous Arm of this study is now closed.

To learn if revumenib (also known as SNDX-5613) can help to control leukemias associated with an increase in expression of HOX genes.

This MyeloMATCH Master Screening and Reassessment Protocol (MSRP) evaluates the use of a screening tool and specific laboratory tests to help improve participants' ability to register to clinical trials throughout the course of their myeloid cancer (acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome) treatment. This study involves testing patients' bone marrow and blood for certain biomarkers. A biomarker (sometimes called a marker) is any molecule in the body that can be measured. Doctors look at markers to learn what is happening in the body. Knowing about certain markers can give doctors more information about what is driving the cancer and how to treat it. Testing patients' bone marrow and blood will show doctors if patients have markers that specific drugs can target. The marker testing in this study will let doctors know if they can match patients with a treatment study (myeloMATCH clinical trial) that tests treatment for the type of cancer they have or continue standard of care treatment with their doctor on the Tier Advancement Pathway (TAP).

This phase Ib/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of venetoclax and how well it works when given with combination chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Venetoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, cytarabine, filgrastim and idarubicin, 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. Giving venetoclax together with combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the combination of ruxolitinib with cladribine and venetoclax can help to control the disease in patients with R/R T-PLL.

This research study is studying a drug as a possible treatment for diagnosis of AML, BPDCN and high-risk MDS. The interventions involved in this study are: * SL-401 * Azacitidine * Venetoclax

To find the recommended dose of ziftomenib in combination with gemtuzumab ozogamicin and venetoclax that can be given to pediatric participants who have relapsed or refractory AML or MPAL.

A study to evaluate if the randomized addition of venetoclax to a chemotherapy backbone (fludarabine/cytarabine/gemtuzumab ozogamicin \[GO\]) improves survival of children/adolescents/young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 1st relapse who are unable to receive additional anthracyclines, or in 2nd relapse.

This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin works in treating younger patients with B-lymphoblastic lymphoma or CD22 positive B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called ozogamicin. Inotuzumab attaches to CD22 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers ozogamicin to kill them.

This study is testing Allo-QuadCAR01-T, a new off-the-shelf CAR-T therapy for people with hard-to-treat B-cell cancers. Unlike current CAR-T treatments that use a patient's own cells, this therapy uses donor cells that are ready to use, which can save time and reduce costs. It targets two proteins, CD19 and CD20, to lower the chance of relapse and uses gene editing to make it safer. The trial has three parts: first to find a safe dose, then to confirm it, and finally to test how well it works in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients will get one infusion after chemotherapy to prepare their body. The main goal is to check safety and see how many patients have a complete response by Week 13. About 160 patients will take part, and researchers will follow them for up to 15 years.

This is an open label, phase 2 study investigating asciminib in patients previously treated with one line of TKI therapy.

This is a first-in-human Phase 1a/1b multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and anti-cancer activity of NX-5948 in patients with advanced B-cell malignancies.

This is a Phase 1b open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation and dose-optimization study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and anti-tumor efficacy of eganelisib as monotherapy and in combination with cytarabine in patients with relapsed/refractory (r/r) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or r/r higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (HR-MDS). The study consists of 2 parts: * Part 1: Dose Escalation (DE) in both monotherapy and in combination. * Part 2: Dose Optimization

This phase II trial studies how well ponatinib hydrochloride works as second line therapy in treating patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase that has not responded to initial treatment (first line) with imatinib mesylate, dasatinib, or nilotinib or cannot tolerate imatinib mesylate, dasatinib, or nilotinib. Ponatinib hydrochloride may stop or control the growth of cancer cells by blocking a protein needed for cell growth.

To find the recommended doses of lisaftoclax and olverembatinib that can be given in combination with decitabine to participants with advanced CML and Ph+ AML.
