This study is called a screening study and the purpose of this study to find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia that has come back after treatment or difficult to treat. Bone marrow, blood, and medical information about cancer and treatment will be collected. The results from this screening study may give other information about leukemia that is…
This research study will look at a newer treatment option for Barrett's Esophagus (BE) which uses nitrous oxide to freeze unwanted tissue. The most commonly used treatment method is Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) which uses heat to destroy the pre-cancerous tissue. Nitrous Oxide ablation using the C2 CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System, an FDA-cleared…
This is a Phase 1 study of a drug called uproleselan. We are testing new experimental drugs such as uproleselan in the hopes of finding a treatment that may be effective against acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome or mixed phenotype acute leukemia that has come back or that has not responded to standard therapy. This study looks at how well…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of Quizartinib that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) which has come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Quizartinib will be given by mouth once a day from Day 6 through Day 28. It will be given in combination with…
The purpose of this study is to find out if the drugs called Nivolumab and 5-Azacytidine can be given safely in children and young adults with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) which has come back after treatment or has not responded to standard therapy. These drugs are thought to work by turning on genes that limit the growth of cancer cells. The study drugs…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and adverse reactions of the various types of noninvasive positive pressure supportive use in the management of children with moderate to severe acute asthma exacerbation.
C2 Therapeutics is currently enrolling patients to participate in the Coldplay 3 clinical trial. Coldplay 3 is evaluating the effectiveness of the Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System in patients with Barrett's esophagus who have not yet received treatment. Participants will undergo treatment with the Coldplay CryoBalloon Focal Ablation System…
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of pevonedistat that can be given safely with chemotherapy in children with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) that has either come back or has not responded to the standard therapy. Pevonedistat works by blocking some of the enzymes that are needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new technique called Wide Area Transepithelial Sample 3-Dimensional Esophageal Biopsy (WATS) with computer assisted method of analysis of brush biopsy. This study will assess whether performing standard biopsies in addition to the WATS brush biopsies identifies more patients with dysplasia than does performing…
This is a Phase 1 multicenter study of Decitabine (DEC) and Vorinostat (VOR) followed by the standard chemotherapy drugs (Fludarabine, Cytarabine and G-CSF (FLAG)). The study treatment is considered experimental because it is not approved by the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)…
The purpose of the study is to compare two types of endoscopic treatments in patients with Barretts esophagus (BE) with abnormal cells (dysplasia); radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and hybrid argon plasma coagulation (H-APC). H-APC is a newer technique in the treatment of BE and has not been adequately studied and is not approved by the FDA for routine use.…
