To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of venetoclax, ponatinib, and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory Philadelphia positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoid blastic phase (BP)-chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). (Phase I) II. To determine the efficacy of the regimen, as defined by the rate of complete remission (CR) or CR with ...

Sep 30th, 2022 - The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of pre-operative cryoablation, ipilimumab and nivolumab on 3-year Event Free Survival (EFS), in women with triple negative breast cancer after taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Our strategy combines two interventions: induced activation and maturation of dendritic cells and tumor-specific T cells by cross-presentation of tumor antigens v...

Sep 30th, 2022 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the therapeutic efficacy (as measured by response rate) of abatacept + ixazomib citrate (ixazomib) + dexamethasone in multiple myeloma patients who have relapsed (or who are primary refractory) following treatment with their first proteasome inhibitor-containing regimen (excluding ixazomib), compared to historical controls of ixazomib + dexamethasone. SECONDA...

Sep 30th, 2022 - The digestion of food by human body starts from oral cavity and continues until its excreted as faeces. There are different factors affecting this process. Important factors are movement through the GI Tract, breakdown of food material and absorption by the body to produce energy. The unabsorbed waste material is then excreted by the body. Different enzymes are produced by human body which are ...

Sep 30th, 2022 - PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To determine the clinical efficacy of the investigational treatment combination. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the clinical activity and toxicity of the investigational treatment combination. II. The clinical benefit rate (CBR), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response (DOR), as measured by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and ...

Sep 30th, 2022 - The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of experimental medication NZV930 alone and when combined with PDR001 and/or NIR178, in patients with advanced cancers

Sep 30th, 2022 - Despite the growing importance of maternal immunization in the control of infectious pathogens in early life, the impact of pregnancy on vaccine immunogenicity remains poorly understood. Evidence suggests that pregnancy may influence the quality of the antibody response to vaccines. Pregnancy is associated with modifications in the glycosylation profile of immunoglobulins G (IgG). Different pat...

Sep 30th, 2022 - This is an open-label, Phase I, FTIH, multiple-dose, dose-escalation and cohort expansion multi-center study conducted in three parts to identify a safe and pharmacologically active dose and regimen for VMD-928 monotherapy, which can be implemented in Phase 2 studies (the RP2D). The regimen will be identified using an adaptive design, multiple-ascending dose study in cancer patients. To conserv...
