Acute Myeloid Leukemia clinical trials at UCSD
11 in progress, 3 open to eligible people
Ziftomenib in Combination With Venetoclax/Azacitidine, Venetoclax, 7+3, or 7+3+Quizartinib in Patients With AML
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Ziftomenib is an investigational drug in development for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with certain genetic alterations. This protocol has 3 separate arms that will investigate the benefits and risks of adding ziftomenib to standard-of-care (SOC) drug treatments in patients who have AML with certain genetic mutations. Both newly diagnosed and relapsed refractory patients with AML will be assigned to different cohorts based on specific study criteria and physician discretion. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and early signs of efficacy of ziftomenib in combination with SOC drugs to treat AML.

Studies to Assess Ziftomenib in Combination With Ven+Aza or 7+3 in Patients With Untreated NPM1-m or KMT2A-r AML
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
Ziftomenib is an investigational drug in development for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with eligible genetic alterations. Ziftomenib is a type of therapy known to target the menin pathway in cancer cells. This protocol has 2 separate studies that will investigate the benefits and risks of adding ziftomenib to standard-of-care (SOC) AML treatments in patients with certain genetic mutations who have not received any treatment for their AML. In the first study, the Nonintensive Therapy Study, older patients or those with serious medical problems will receive the SOC therapies venetoclax (ven) and azacitidine (aza), plus either ziftomenib or a placebo. In the second study, the Intensive Therapy Study, medically fit patients will receive (a) the SOC therapies cytarabine and daunorubicin, plus either ziftomenib or a placebo during a first treatment phase called induction, (b) cytarabine plus either ziftomenib or a placebo during a second treatment phase called consolidation, and (c) ziftomenib or a placebo during a third treatment phase called maintenance. The physician will determine which study is the appropriate treatment for the patient, but neither the patient nor their physician will know whether the patient has been assigned to receive ziftomenib or a placebo. This design is called "double-blinded".

Rebecsinib for Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia or High Risk Myelofibrosis
Sorry, not yet accepting patients
The purpose of this study is to test the safest and most effective dose of a new investigational drug, rebecsinib. Participants in this study will have either Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia (sAML) that has either returned (relapsed) or not responded to treatment (refractory) or have higher risk Myelofibrosis (MF). Participants will receive a study drug infusion on Day 1, Day 4, Day 8 and Day 11 of each 28-day cycle for a total of 6 cycles.

Pharmacodynamics of Tuspetinib (HM43239) in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Sorry, not currently recruiting here
The main purpose of this study is to identify a safe and potentially effective dose of tuspetinib to be used in future studies in study participants diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes with increased blasts grade 2 (MDS-IB2), or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) that is relapsed or refractory after at least one line of prior therapy, or in study participants with newly diagnosed AML. Tuspetinib will be administered as a single agent or in combination with other drugs (venetoclax or venetoclax plus azacitidine), as specified for each part of the study.

CPX-351 Plus Enasidenib for Relapsed AML
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Daunorubicin and Cytarabine With or Without Uproleselan in Treating Older Adult Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia Receiving Intensive Induction Chemotherapy
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Ipilimumab and Decitabine in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Myelodysplastic Syndrome or Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Testing Nivolumab to Prevent Disease From Coming Back After Treatment in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia, REMAIN Trial
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Cytogenetic Studies in Acute Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma
Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients
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.

Long-Term Follow-up Study
Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only
This is an observational, non-interventional, LTFS of investigational Caribou therapies in patients who have participated in a parent study: a prior Caribou-sponsored clinical study, special access program, or an IIT. The objective is to evaluate the long-term safety, through 15 years post infusion, in patients who received IPs in a Caribou-sponsored clinical study, special access program or IIT.
