Venetoclax After TKI to Target Persisting Stem Cells in CML

There is currently no available treatment, capable to increase the rate of sustained deep molecular remissions after TKI discontinuation in CML. Venetoclax could be such a drug. The study will provide unprecedented biological insights on the effects of venetoclax in controlling minimal residual stem cell disease induced by long-term prior TKI therapy. If the study would be positive, the findings could become practice changing for patients in deep molecular remission under TKI and willing to tolerate a temporary additional treatment.

Frontline Asciminib Combination in Chronic Phase CML

Adult male and female patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) and/or BCR-ABL1 positive CML can be included in the study until 3 months after diagnosis. A \<4 week pretreatment with hydroxyurea is permitted. Patients treated for \<6 weeks with nilotinib 300 mg BID, imatinib 400 mg QD, dasatinib 100 mg QD or without any therapy are eligible for recruitment and will be allocated to the respective cohort. All patients must provide written informed consent to be enrolled in the trial. Cohorts were designed to allow assessment of QD and BID asciminib based combinations to optimize quality of life and compliance. Patients will not be randomized. In general, cohorts will be filled consecutively. Asciminib therapy will be commenced 12 weeks after start of nilotinib, imatinib or dasatinib and after recovery of hematopoiesis or in case of no therapy so far 6 weeks after diagnosis as first line treatment. Referred patients already treated with imatinib, nilotinib or dasatinib will remain on the initial drug and will be allocated to the respective cohort.

Prophylactic and Therapeutic DLI-X for Leukemia Relapse After HCT

The primary objective of this proposal is to conduct the first-in-human randomized clinical trial evaluating prophylactic DLI-X (pro-DLI-X) for relapse prevention following matched sibling donor (MSD) or haploidentical (haplo) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in patients with hematologic malignancies. Additionally, the study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of therapeutic DLI-X (t-DLI-X) compared to t-DLI alone in patients with minimal residual disease (MRD+) or overt relapse post-alloHCT. For patients with CD19-positive lymphoid malignancies, the study will incorporate blinatumomab, while those with myeloid or CD19-negative lymphoid malignancies will receive t-DLI-X or t-DLI alone. We hypothesize that both pro-DLI-X and t-DLI-X, with or without blinatumomab, will demonstrate safety and superior efficacy by enhancing graft-versus-leukemia (GvL) effects mediated by natural killer (NK) cells, γδ T cells, and CD8+ T cells, while maintaining manageable and treatment-responsive graft-versus-host disease (GvHD).

CASPALLO: Allodepleted T Cells Transduced With Inducible Caspase 9 Suicide Gene

Patients are being asked to participate in this study because they will be receiving a stem cell transplant as treatment for their disease. As part of the stem cell transplant, they will be given very strong doses of chemotherapy, which will kill off all their existing stem cells. Stem cells are created in the bone marrow. They grow into different types of blood cells that we need, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. We have identified a close relative of the patients whose stem cells are not a perfect match for the patient, but can be used. This type of transplant is called "allogeneic", meaning that the cells come from a donor. With this type of donor who is not a perfect match, there is typically an increased risk of developing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) and a longer delay in the recovery of the immune system. GvHD is a serious and sometimes fatal side effect of stem cell transplant. GvHD occurs when the new donor cells recognize that the body tissues of the patient are different from those of the donor. In the laboratory, we have seen that cells made to carry a gene called iCasp9 can be killed when they encounter a specific drug called AP1903. To get the iCasp9 into the T cells, we insert it using a virus called a retrovirus that has been made for this study. The drug (AP1903) that will be used to "activate" the iCasp9 is an experimental drug that has been tested in a study in normal donors, with no bad side effects. We hope we can use this drug to kill the T cells. Other drugs that kill or damage T cells have helped GvHD in many studies. However we do not yet know whether AP1903 will kill T cells in humans, even though it has worked in our experimental studies on human cells in animals. Nor do we know whether killing the T cells will help the GvHD. Because of this uncertainty, patients who develop significant GvHD will also receive standard therapy for this complication, in addition to the experimental drug. We hope that having this safety switch in the T cells will let us give higher doses of T cells that will make the immune system recover faster. These specially treated "suicide gene" T cells are an investigational product not approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

HA-1 T TCR T Cell Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Leukemia After Donor Stem Cell Transplant

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CD4+ and CD8+ HA-1 T cell receptor (TCR) (HA-1 T TCR) T cells in treating patients with acute leukemia that persists, has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) following donor stem cell transplant. T cell receptor is a special protein on T cells that helps them recognize proteins on other cells including leukemia. HA-1 is a protein that is present on the surface of some peoples' blood cells, including leukemia. HA-1 T cell immunotherapy enables genes to be added to the donor cells to make them recognize HA-1 markers on leukemia cells.

Safety And Efficacy Of TKI Cessation For CML Patients With Stable Molecular Response In A Real World Population

This is a single-arm, phase II study to evaluate safety and efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) cessation for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with stable molecular response in a real world population.

Discontinuation of TyrosIne Kinase Inhibitors (TKI) in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and Impact on the Immune System

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have revolutionized the management and prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Daily treatment with TKI, which is necessary due to lack of cure, is frequently associated with moderate, chronic and sometimes severe adverse effects. The ability to permanently stop treatment with TKI has thus become a major goal in CML to prevent the occurrence of adverse events, improve quality of life and reduce the general cost of the treatment; we talk about Treatment Free Remission (TFR). It now remains to be demonstrated in a comparative prospective study that a strategy of de-escalation of the TKI treatment dose before treatment discontinuation optimizes TFR results. At the same time, it is possible to reduce adverse reactions and improve the quality of life of patients. In this context, the investigator propose to conduct a randomized clinical trial including CML patients, allowing to compare the results of TFR at 24 months between a sudden stop of treatment after a maintenance phase of dosage for 12 months and a de-escalation arm of dose (dosage reduced by 50%) for 12 months before stopping. A secondary immunological translational objective of this project will be to compare the quantitative and qualitative evolution of innate CD8 T cells between the 2 arms (abrupt cessation of ITK treatment versus progressive withdrawal) and look for a predictive innate CD8 T cells blood signature at the time of stopping treatment of a successful TFR in both arms.
