Decitabine

This phase I/IIA trial studies the side effects and best dose of gene-modified T cells when given with or without decitabine, and to see how well they work in treating patients with malignancies expressing cancer-testis antigens.

The goal of this interventional clinical trial is to determine if low doses of gentle chemotherapy after bone marrow transplant may prevent relapse and promote an increase in survival and decrease in side effects in participants with acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. The main question it aims to answer is whether or not providing a new, gentler way of administering chemotherapy will help control leftover cancer with minimal side effects. This treatment involves decitabine and venetoclax. Participants will receive standard post-transplant care. Participants will be administered decitabine once per week with normal transplant follow up visits, and then will take a venetoclax pill about 6 to 8 hours later. Participants will meet their study team at the beginning, midway, and at the end of the trial to receive bone marrow testing. Participants will receive treatment until either one year of therapy, relapse, or recurrent dose limiting toxicity (DLT) despite dose reduction.

This phase II trial studies the effect of ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy in treating patients with lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to therapy (refractory), clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Ascorbic acid may make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, 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 ascorbic acid and combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. Arms A, B, C, and D are closed to enrollment.

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.

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well fludarabine phosphate, cytarabine, filgrastim-sndz, gemtuzumab ozogamicin, and idarubicin hydrochloride work in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate, cytarabine, and idarubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Gemtuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called gemtuzumab, linked to a antitumor drug, called calicheamicin. Gemtuzumab is a form of targeted therapy because it attaches to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of cancer cells, known as CD33 receptors, and delivers calicheamicin to kill them. Colony-stimulating factors, such as filgrastim-sndz, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Giving fludarabine phosphate, cytarabine, filgrastim-sndz, gemtuzumab ozogamicin, and idarubicin hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.

This phase II trial studies how well decitabine with ruxolitinib, fedratinib, or pacritinib works before hematopoietic stem cell transplant in treating patients with accelerated/blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms (tumors). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, 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. Ruxolitinib, fedratinib, and pacritinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving chemotherapy before a donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The donated stem cells may also replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells. Decitabine, with ruxolitinib, fedratinib, or pacritinib may work better than multi-agent chemotherapy or no pre-transplant therapy, in treating patients with accelerated/blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasms.

This is a randomized, open-label, Phase I clinical study with expansion. It will assess the safety and efficacy of high-dose ascorbate administered concomitantly with azacitidine and venetoclax in newly diagnosed AML.

To learn if giving the study drugs calaspargase pegol-mknl and decitabine in combination with venetoclax can help to control relapsed/refractory T-ALL and T-LLy. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.

This phase I/II trial studies how well quizartinib, decitabine, and venetoclax work in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia or high risk myelodysplastic syndrome that is untreated or has come back (relapsed). Quizartinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine and venetoclax, 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 quizartinib and decitabine may work better at treating acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if cladribine given in combination with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) and decitabine can help control the disease in patients with AML or MDS. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Cladribine is designed to interfere with the cell's ability to process DNA (the genetic material of cells). It can also insert itself into the DNA of cancer cells to stop them from growing and repairing themselves. Cytarabine is designed to insert itself into DNA of cancer cells to stop them from growing and repairing themselves. Decitabine is designed to damage the DNA of cells, which may cause cancer cells to die. This is an investigational study. Cladribine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with hairy cell leukemia. Its use in patients with AML is investigational. Cytarabine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with AML. Decitabine is FDA approved and commercially available for use in patients with MDS. Its use for patients with AML is investigational. Up to 160 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of decitabine in combination with standard of care surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy and the effectiveness of the combination in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancers that are not caused by human papilloma virus (HPV-negative) and that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Decitabine, an antimetabolite, stops cells from making deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Studies have shown that medications like decitabine can make some types of solid tumors more sensitive to chemotherapy. This allows the chemotherapy to be more effective, with slower progression and longer survival. Decitabine is also a clinically active demethylating agent, and may help make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is a type of radiation that uses a machine to aim high-energy rays at the tumor from outside the body. Chemotherapy drugs 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 decitabine in combination with standard of care surgery, radiation and/or chemotherapy may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with surgically resectable HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell cancers.

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of ASTX727 and filgrastim for the treatment of children with high risk acute myeloid leukemia that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory) who have undergone allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. ASTX727 is a combination of cedazuridine and decitabine. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Filgrastim stimulates the production of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) which can help to prevent infection. Giving ATSX727 and filgrastim may be safe and tolerable in treating children with high risk, recurrent or refractory acute myeloid leukemia who have undergone allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
