Revumenib for the Treatment of Acute Leukemia in Patients Post-Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose and effectiveness of revumenib in treating patients with acute leukemia after allogeneic stem cell transplant. Revumenib is in a class of medications called menin inhibitors. Revumenib targets and binds to the protein menin, thereby preventing the interaction between menin and the mixed lineage leukemia protein. Disrupting this interaction prevents the activation of specific genes that fuel the development of leukemia cells and inhibits the survival, growth, and production of certain kinds of leukemia cells. Giving revumenib may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with acute leukemia after allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Artistic and Movement Activities to Reduce Anxiety in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a combined artistic and motor activity program can reduce anxiety in children aged 8-13 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) undergoing chemotherapy at Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt 57357. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does participation in the program reduce anxiety compared to standard care? * Does the program improve psychological well-being, social interaction, and coping during treatment? Researchers will compare an experimental group (receiving the artistic and motor program) with a control group (receiving standard care only) to see if the intervention lowers anxiety scores on the Spence Children's Anxiety Scale. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group. * Complete pre- and post-intervention anxiety assessments. In the experimental group: * Attend 16 weekly sessions over 4 months. * Participate in art workshops (drawing, coloring, group activities). * Engage in motor activities (warm-up, progressive exercises, relaxation, light games, treadmill/cycling up to 5 minutes). In the control group: Will not be exposed to the program, with anxiety measured before and after the same period.

Trial of 2 Step ATG for Acute GVHD Prevention Post Myeloablative Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant

The purpose of this study is to test whether the combination of the drugs called tacrolimus (Tac), methotrexate (MTX) and new dosing strategy of another drug called (rabbit Anti-thymocyte Globulin \[ATG\]) will help prevent the development and/or improve severity of acute and/or chronic GVHD.

Biomarkers in Patients With Anemia-Induced Thrombocytopenic Bleeding

This pilot study aims to gather preliminary evidence on how different hemoglobin levels impact blood biomarkers related to bleeding. The feasibility of conducting a future larger clinical trial will also be assessed. Red blood cell transfusions are part of the standard of care for patients with leukemia. This study evaluates two transfusion strategies: one that maintains hemoglobin levels above the standard-of-care threshold, reflecting current routine practice; and another that maintains hemoglobin levels above 110 g/L, which is closer to the normal hemoglobin range. The normal hemoglobin range is 120-160 g/L for females and 140-180 g/L for males. Raising hemoglobin levels closer to normal values may reduce bleeding risk.

Prevention of Hospital Acquired Deconditioning in Hospitalized Acute Leukemia Patients

This study aims to decrease the incidence of hospital acquired deconditioning (HAD) and to help standardize daily physical exercise monitoring in acute leukemia patients with anticipated prolonged duration of hospital stay. The investigators hypothesize that implementing a patient-reported adherence log of their recommended standard daily set of exercises will help reduce proportion of hospital acquired deconditioning in acute leukemia patients. The investigators also hypothesize that less adherent patients will have more inpatient hospital related events and decreased health related quality of life.

A Phase 1/2 Study of Bleximenib in Participants With Acute Leukemia (cAMeLot-1)

The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D\[s\]) of bleximenib in phase 1 Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to determine the safety and tolerability at RP2D in Phase 1 Part 2 (Dose expansion). The purpose of the Phase 2 part of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of bleximenib at the RP2D.

Naive T Cell Depletion for Preventing Chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease in Children and Young Adults With Blood Cancers Undergoing Donor Stem Cell Transplant

This phase II trial studies how well naive T-cell depletion works in preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease in children and young adults with blood cancers undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Sometimes the transplanted white blood cells from a donor attack the body's normal tissues (called graft versus host disease). Removing a particular type of T cell (naive T cells) from the donor cells before the transplant may stop this from happening.

Emotion and Symptom-Focused Engagement Trial for Individuals With Acute Leukemia

The purpose of this study is to find out whether a novel manualized intervention, called Emotion and Symptom-focused Engagement (EASE), that combines psychological support with symptom screening plus triggered referral to early palliative care for symptom control, reduces psychological distress and physical symptom burden in individuals newly diagnosed with acute leukemia. To do this, half of the participants in this study will receive the usual care offered to patients with acute leukemia and half of the participants will receive usual care plus the EASE intervention.

Brain MRF in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults With Acute Leukemia

The survival of children, adolescents and young adults (AYA) with acute leukemia has improved dramatically over the last two decades. This success is a result of using multiple chemotherapy drugs in combination, with the inclusion of drugs that enter the brain and prevent leukemia cells from growing there. Studies in these cancer survivors have shown that the exposure to these chemotherapy drugs can lead to risks for impaired brain function, also referred to as neurocognitive side effects of chemotherapy. There is an opportunity to identify participants at risk for these side effects and to prevent their development. The purpose of this study is to incorporate a brain imaging tool known as Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) to look for brain matter changes in acute leukemia participants receiving chemotherapy. The MRF scan will be performed at diagnosis and repeated at multiple times during the entire therapy duration as well as at defined intervals after therapy is complete. Investigators would also do an electronic test of memory and brain function (cognitive function), which would be administered in a gaming format on iPads or a similar device. The goal will be to correlate results of MRF imaging with the tests of cognitive function. The benefits of this imaging technique include that it can be done quickly (in minutes), it is non-invasive, it is resistant to motion-artifacts and it can be easily repeated for comparison purposes. The advantages of the cognitive test include its short duration of 20 minutes and its gaming format making it friendly for children to use.

A First-in-Human Study of HLA-Partially to Fully Matched Allogenic Cryopreserved Deceased Donor Bone Marrow Transplantation for Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the safety and feasibility of allogeneic transplantation with bone marrow from a deceased donor in patients with acute and chronic leukemias, myelodysplastic syndrome, and certain lymphomas. Patients will either receive myeloablative conditioning or reduced intensity conditioning regimen prior to the transplant. Patients will be followed for 56 days for safety endpoints and remain in follow-up for one year.

Sirolimus+Ruxolitinib+Mycophenolate Mofetil for Prophylaxis of aGVHD in Patients Receiving Haplo-HSCT Who Are Intolerant to CNI

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an important complication after transplantation, with an incidence of 40-60%, which can increase non-relapse mortality if poorly controlled. At present, the standard prophylaxis for GVHD is cyclosporine combined with methotrexate. However, calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) can cause some vital side effects, which are not tolerated by some patients. Therefore, this study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of Sirolimus in combination with Ruxolitinib and Mycophenolate Mofetil for the prophylaxis of GVHD in patients with haplo-HSCT who are intolerant to calcineurin inhibitors.

Prevention of Oral Mucositis in Adults in With Hematologic Malignancy

The goal of this quasiexperimental cohort controlled intervention study is to learn if aloe vera mouthwash works better than usual care in the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis. Researchers will compare aloe vera to usual care. Participants in the intervention group will rinse their mouths with aloe vera 4 x/day for 28 days of their treatment. They will also complete questionnaires about oral health and mucositis.

Peri-graft Cytokine Profile: Influence of Hematologic Disease and Donor Type

Cytokine profiles in the early post-transplant phase may influence the Development of early post-transplant inflammatory or immunological complications. This study propose to analyze these cytokine profiles based on the disease (myelofibrosis or other hematologic malignancies) and on the donor type (haploidentical, genotypically identical, or phenotypically identical). Patients with myelofibrosis have an inflammatory cytokine profile prior to transplantation. Patients who undergo haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) most often experience a post-transplant cytokine release syndrome, and the question is whether these two conditions-myelofibrosis and haploidentical transplantation-increase the probability of an early cytokine release, potentially putting these patients at greater risk for acute GVHD than patients who undergo transplantation under other conditions or who have other diseases. In the prospective Phase 2 "FIBRAPLO" protocol (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04728490), 28 patients with myelofibrosis received an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a haploidentical donor, and serum samples were collected at Day-7 before transplantation, Day 0 and Day+7 after transplantation to analyse cytokine profiles around the time of allogeneic HSCT. The purpose of the present study is to match these FIBRAPLO patients (patients with myelofibrosis who received an allograft from a haploidentical donor) with patients without myelofibrosis who received a haploidentical transplant, in order to determine whether these profiles are specific to this population. The aim is to compare these profiles to other scenarios: patients with or without myelofibrosis who received transplants from 10/10 or geno-identical donors. This study propose to prospectively collect blood samples at time points (D-7, D0, and D7) from control patients : * receiving a haplo-identical allogeneic transplant for another condition (acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome), * a geno-identical or 10/10 matched unrelated allogeneic transplant, for myelofibrosis or for other condition (acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome)

Study of QUAIL-100 in Pediatric and Young Adult Participants With High-Risk Hematologic Malignancies Who Have Received a Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Study of QUAIL-100 in Patients With High Risk Acute Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome Who Have Received Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

Safety and Tolerability of Ziftomenib Combinations in Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

The safety, tolerability, and antileukemic response of ziftomenib in combination with standard of care treatments for patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia will be examined with the following agents: FLAG-IDA, low-dose cytarabine, and gilteritinib.

Thiotepa-based Conditioning Regimen With De-escalated Post-graft Cyclophosphamide for Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation in Hematologic Malignancies

This phase 1 trial will investigate the safety and effectiveness of Thiotepa, Busulfan, and Fludarabine (TBF) conditioning regimen with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in HLA-matched related or unrelated donor allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT).

HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation With Reduced Dose Post Transplantation Cyclophosphamide GvHD Prophylaxis

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Reduced Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in patients with hematologic malignancies after receiving an HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor (MMUD) . The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does a reduced dose of PTCy reduce the occurrence of infections in the first 100 days after transplant? * Does a reduced dose of PTCy maintain the same level of protection against Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) as the standard dose of PTCy?

A High Intensity Electronic Health Intervention for the Reduction of Learning Disparities in Childhood Cancer Survivors

This clinical trial evaluates a high intensity electronic health (eHealth) intervention program for reducing learning disparities in children with cancer. Most children with leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma can be cured due to advancements in diagnosis and treatment. However, because treatments for these conditions target the central nervous system, these children are at increased risk for developing neurocognitive late effects (problems with attention, thinking, learning, and remembering). Fortunately, many survivors do well, but some children continue to struggle with learning and have academic difficulties after their cancer treatments. The purpose of this research study is to see whether providing parents with educational knowledge and parenting tips using videoconferencing and a special website better helps their cancer survivor child in learning and school achievement compared to typical services.

Precision-T: A Study of Orca-T in Recipients Undergoing Allogeneic Transplantation for Hematologic Malignancies

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Orca-T, an allogeneic stem cell and T-cell immunotherapy biologic manufactured for each patient (transplant recipient) from the mobilized peripheral blood of a specific, unique donor. It is composed of purified hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), purified regulatory T cells (Tregs), and conventional T cells (Tcons) in participants undergoing myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant transplantation for hematologic malignancies.

Pathogenesis of Hematologic Malignancies

The cause of blood and bone marrow cancers is poorly understood; however, most research focuses on how cancer cells grow and develop. Because the causes of these cancers are unknown, current treatments may be unnecessarily harsh and often do not provide a cure. Identifying the causes of blood cancers would allow for the development of treatments that are more likely to provide a cure. To find the causes of blood and bone marrow cancers, we will look for specific cancer cell abnormalities that are responsible for cancer cell growth. We will then look to see if drugs that can reverse these abnormalities can kill cancer cells.

TBI Using IMRT (VMAT or Tomotherapy) for the Prevention of Pul Toxicities in Patients Undergoing Donor SCT

This trial studies how well radiation therapy techniques, volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and tomotherapy, work to reduce doses to the lung compared to standard total body irradiation methods to prevent pulmonary toxicities. Standard total body irradiation is limited in its ability to spare normal organs, with only the lung being partially spared by lung blocks and risks the development of pulmonary toxicities. Reducing the doses to the lung using VMAT or tomotherapy may improve survival and decrease long term lung side effects in patients undergoing stem cell transplant.
