Leukemia clinical trials at UCSD

This is a Phase 1/2 dose-escalation study of BTCT4465A (Mosunetuzumab) administered as a single agent and in combination with atezolizumab in participants with relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL and CLL. The study will consist of a dose-escalation stage and an expansion stage where participants will be enrolled into indication-specific cohorts.

This is a Phase Ib/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous T cells engineered with a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting CD19 in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

We hypothesize that GA101 - Obinutuzumab in combination with HDMP is well tolerated and will induce similar if not higher response rates than the ones observed in Rituximab plus HDMP studies (Castro et al., 2009, Castro et al., 2008).

The main aim is to see how the combination of pevonedistat + venetoclax + azacitidine compares to venetoclax + azacitidine in adults recently diagnosed with AML who are unable to be treated with intensive chemotherapy. Participants will receive either pevonedistat + venetoclax + azacitidine or venetoclax + azacitidine in 28-day treatment cycles. Bone marrow samples (biopsy) will be collected throughout the study. Pevonedistat will be given as an intravenous (IV) infusion and Azacitidine will be given through IV or subcutaneous (under the skin). Study treatments may continue as long as the participant is receiving benefit from it. Participants may choose to stop treatment at any time.

This phase II trial tests the safety, side effects, and effectiveness of asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi during induction chemotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy in treating high-risk adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi, a type of protein synthesis inhibitor, is a drug that is made up of the enzyme asparaginase, which comes from the bacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi, and is used with other drugs in people who cannot take asparaginase that comes from the bacterium E. coli. Asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi breaks down the amino acid asparagine and may stop the growth of cancer cells that need asparagine to grow. It may also kill cancer cells. Induction therapy, consisting of cytarabine, dexamethasone, vincristine, daunorubicin, methotrexate, and rituximab, is the first choice of treatment. Consolidation therapy, consisting of cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, vincristine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate and rituximab, is given after initial therapy to kill any remaining cancer cells. Vincristine is in a class of medications called vinca alkaloids. It works by stopping cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Methotrexate is in a class of medications called antimetabolites. It is also a type of antifolate. Methotrexate stops cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill cancer cells. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is in a class of medications called alkylating agents. It works by damaging the cell's DNA and may kill cancer cells. It may also lower the body's immune response. Cytarabine and mercaptopurine stop cells from making DNA and may kill cancer cells. They are a type of antimetabolite. Daunorubicin blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and DNA repair and may kill cancer cells. It is a type of anthracycline antibiotic and a type of topoisomerase inhibitor. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Giving asparaginase Erwinia chrysanthemi with induction chemotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating high-risk adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma.

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well blinatumomab and combination chemotherapy or dasatinib, prednisone, and blinatumomab work in treating older patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as prednisone, vincristine sulfate, methotrexate, and mercaptopurine, 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. Dasatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving blinatumomab with combination chemotherapy or dasatinib and prednisone may kill more cancer cells.

This is a Phase I/II study of blinatumomab in combination with pembrolizumab in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-lineage ALL (B-ALL). The primary objective of this study is to determine if the addition of pembrolizumab to blinatumomab improves the Complete Response Rate (CR) and Complete Remission with Partial Hematologic Recovery (CRh) relative to blinatumomab alone in adult subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia with high bone marrow lymphoblast percentage (>50% lymphoblasts).

Single center, open-label, phase 2 study to determine the efficacy of cirmtuzumab consolidation in patients with measurable disease on venetoclax.

This trial evaluates how well CPX-351 and enasidenib work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia characterized by IHD2 mutation. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPX-351, 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. Enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving CPX-351 and enasidenib may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia, compared to giving only one of these therapies alone.

This phase II/III trial studies how well daunorubicin and cytarabine with or without uproleselan works in treating older adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia receiving intensive induction chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as daunorubicin and cytarabine, 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. Uproleselan may prevent cancer from returning or getting worse. Giving daunorubicin and cytarabine with uproleselan may work better in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia compared to daunorubicin and cytarabine alone.

Multicenter, open-label, prospective treatment protocol that provides continued access to ibrutinib to subjects who have completed parent ibrutinib studies, are still benefitting from treatment with ibrutinib, and have no access to commercial ibrutinib for their underlying disease within their region.

This study will evaluate the feasibility of an 8-week vegan whole-food, plant-based dietary intervention in subjects with low risk CLL who are undergoing observation. Over the course of 8 weeks, participants will attend weekly group cooking classes via Zoom lead by a RD. Participants will also attend weekly individual meetings with a health coaches to assist with adherence to the dietary intervention.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether ibrutinib in combination with GA101 - Obinutuzumab might be useful for the treatment of CLL. This study will evaluate if ibrutinib in combination with GA101 - Obinutuzumab can reduce the amount of cancerous cells in body.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ipilimumab when given together with decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, 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. Giving ipilimumab and decitabine may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide and blinatumomab when given together in treating patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Blinatumomab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread.

This study is designed as a long-term follow-up study of participants who have receive genetically modified autologous CLBR001 CAR-T cells

The main objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of sonrotoclax plus zanubrutinib versus venetoclax plus obinutuzumab in participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)

This phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works in eliminating any remaining cancer cells and preventing cancer from returning in patients with acute myeloid leukemia that had a decrease in or disappearance of signs and symptoms of cancer after receiving chemotherapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the combination of venetoclax and ibrutinib (administered up to 840 mg per day) might be useful for the treatment of CLL or SLL that is not responding or no longer responding to treatment with ibrutinib alone. The study will evaluate whether this regimen can reduce the amount of cancerous cells in your body. If you agree, you will receive ibrutinib at a dose of up to 840 mg a day by mouth, as well as venetoclax. Although both of these agents are approved by the FDA for the treatment of CLL or SLL, the combination and the dosing schedule of ibrutinib are considered experimental.

Chromosomal analysis or the study of genetic differences in patients previously untreated with AML, ALL, MDS or MM may be helpful in the diagnosis and classification of disease. It may also improve the ability to predict the course of disease and the selection of therapy. Institutions must have either an Alliance-approved cytogeneticist or an agreement from an Alliance-approved main member cytogenetics laboratory to enroll a patient on CALGB 8461. The Alliance Approved Institutional Cytogeneticists list is posted on the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology website.

This study is to provide idelalisib (IDELA) to individuals with relapsed, previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have limited treatment options and are not eligible for other Gilead-sponsored studies.

This protocol will allow expanded access of ponatinib to patients ≥18 years with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) any phase or Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ALL) who have failed all available treatment options.

This is a non-interventional, long-term safety study of allogeneic CAR-T cell therapy in patients who have participated in a prior Caribou-sponsored clinical study, in a special access program, or in another study such as an IIT. Its purpose of is to collect long-term observational data to identify and understand potential late side effects in patients who have received CAR-T cell therapies.
