Follow Up On CD8-Depleted Donor-Lymphocyte Infusions After T-Cell Depleted Allogeneic Hemopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
2013
We applied prophylactic CD8-depleted (CD8depl) donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) in the setting of T-cell depleted reduced-intensity allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in a phase I/II trial. T-cell depletion was carried out by the use of high-dose Alemtuzumab (100 mg or 60 mg for unrelated or sibling donor transplantation, respectively). We have demonstrated the feasibility of this approach after having treated 23 patients in this protocol (Meyer et al. Blood 2007). From 2004 to 2011, 134 patients with different hematologic diseases were included and followed for a median observation time of 1.5 years after transplantation (range, 1.5-9 years). Median age was 56 years …
Oral Idarubicin in Maintenance Therapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia
2001
More than half of all acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients are over 60 years. The disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rate of these patients is poor. These unsatisfactory results are associated with adverse cytogenetic characteristics, prior myelods-plasia, adverse phenotypic features, MDR and BCL2 overexpression. Furthermore a large fraction of patients achieving CR early relapses. This is due to two factors: acquired tumor cell drug resistance and tumor re-growth. Maintenance therapy could provide a means to keep leukemic growth under control. We enrolled 31 elderly previous responder patients to standard induction therapy to receive maintenance oral IDA 3mg/m2 daily d…
Multizentrische Phase II — Studie der Arbeitsgruppe Lebermetastasen zur wöchentlichen intraarteriellen 24 h Hochdosistherapie mit 5-FU und Folinsäure…
1998
This prospective multicenter trial was performed to determine the response rate, toxicity and applicability of continuous 24 h hepatic arterial infusion of high-dose 5-FU and folinic acid. An improved response rate (60.5% in non-pretreated patients) was however associated with many systemic side-effects (340/509), mainly nausea and diarrhea. Therefore this treatment should be applied only in selected patients in specialized centers.
Phase IA/II Study of Oral LBH589, a Novel Deacetylase Inhibitor (DACi), Administered on 2 Schedules, in Patients with Advanced Hematologic Malignanci…
2007
Abstract LBH589 is a novel cinnamic acid hydroxamate DACi which induces apoptosis in multiple hematologic tumor cell lines in vitro at nanomolar levels. LBH589 has been administered orally, once-a-day, on Monday/Wednesday/Friday, every week (Arm 1) or every other week (Arm 2), in cycles of 28 days, to adult pts with advanced hematologic malignancies. A 3-parameter Bayesian logistic regression model guided dose escalation. To date, 61 pts, median age 67 yrs (range 16–87), 40 male, 21 female, have been enrolled: 33 pts in Arm 1 at dose levels (mg/dose) of 20 (9 pts), 30 (12 pts), 40 (10 pts), and 60 (2 pts); 28 pts in Arm 2 at dose levels (mg/dose) of 30 (7 pts), 45 (12 pts), and 60 (9 pts). …
FS-HAI for Relapsed AML
2003
Treatment results in patients with refractory and relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) need to be improved. The current study aimed at enhancing the anti-leukemic efficacy of the sequential high-dose AraC and idarubicin (S-HAI) regimen by the addition of fludarabine as a chemo-modulator. High-dose AraC was applied q 12 hours on days on days 1, 2, 8, and 9 and idarubicin on days 3, 4, 10, and 11. Patients were randomized to receive fludarabine q 12 hours on days 1, 2, 8, and 9 in addition to S-HAI or S-HAI alone. Of 179 patients having entered the study 120 are fully evaluable at the present time (median age 55 years, range 20–77). Thirty-eight percent of the patients had refractory disease…
5PSQ-100 Comparative analysis of the safety and tolerability profile of pirfenidone and nintedanib in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
2020
Background and importance The main treatments for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are pirfenidone and nintedanib. Although their efficacy is known, further studies are needed to evaluate the safety and tolerability profiles (STPs) based on real world data. Aim and objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the STP of nintedanib and pirfenidone according to our hospital data. Material and methods We analysed 148 patients treated with pirfenidone (72% men; 28% women) and 120 treated with nintedanib (77% men; 23% women) from September 2016 to September 2019. The average age of the patients treated with pirfenidone and nintedanib was 72.7 and 74.4 years, respectively. Drug tolerability was …
Modulation of AraC by Fludarabine: Results of Salvage Therapy by AMLCG
2001
Fludarabine was shown to increase the intracellular formation of AraCTP during treatment with AraC both in vitro and in vivo and had significant activity in patients with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) when used in combination with AraC in phase II studies. However, the efficacy of fludarabin as chemo-modulatior of the AraC metabolism has not yet been assessed in phase III studies. Based on the S-HAI salvage regimen comprizing high-dose AraC q 12 hours on days 1,2,8, and 9 and idarubicin on days 3,4,10, and 11, the German AML Cooperative Group initiated a prospective randomized comparison between fludarabine q 12 hours on days 1, 2, 8, and 9 in addition to S-HAI as compared with S-HA…
