Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies Clinical Trials Facts presented on Clinical Trials Search is not designed to be a substitute for certified medical advice, travels to or treatment with a real dr.. We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD on Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies Clinical research trials and Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies medical trials occur in many of places across the U.S.A.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectiveness of new does drugs. The role of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate treatments for all forms of circumstances, including Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies. Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies Clinical Trials and other clinical trials permit volunteers to get medical treatment options before they are available to the masses. Most times the human subjects acquire treatment for free of charge, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies clinical trial. Participants oftentimes recieve the finest healthcare available for their Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and might include extra or frequent physician calls, health hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

Safety and Efficacy of Hum195/rGel in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies
For Condition: Myeloproliferative Disorders,Leukemia, Myelocytic, Acute,Myelodysplastic Syndromes,Anemia, Refractory, with Excess of Blasts
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): M.D. Anderson Cancer Center ,
Synopsis: The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest safe dose of the anti-CD33 immunotoxin Hum-195/rGel that can be given to patients with advanced myeloid malignancies. This treatment will be given to patients whose leukemia has not responded to prior chemotherapy.

Protocol Entry Criteria: Inclusion Criteria: - Patients with relapsed or refractory AML, RAEB-t, RAEB, or CMML who failed at least one previous chemotherapy course. Patients with accelerated CMLPh+ or myeloid blast crisis are eligible. Patients in blastic phase of non-Philadelphia chromosome+ myeloproliferative disorders are also eligible, (blast phase of: 1)P. vera, 2)myelofibrosis, 3)essential thrombocytopenia with >30% blasts in the blood or bone marrow.) - Male or female 18 years of age or older who have provided written informed consent. - Tumor cells must be equal to or greater than 80% CD33 positive by flow cytometry. - For women of childbearing potential (i.e., exclude post-menopausal women, women who have been surgically sterilized) adequate birth control methods must be used. Acceptable birth control methods are limited to oral contraceptives, implants, diaphragm, IUD or spermicide used with a condom. - White blood cell count <10,000/ul for AML, MDS, CML Ph+ in myeloid blastic crisis and myeloproliferative disorders and up to 30,000 for accelerated CML. - No chemotherapy for the two weeks prior to entering the study. - No evidence of residual toxic effects from prior chemotherapy. - Patients with proven bacterial infection are not eligible until resolution of the infection (patient afebrile, not on steroids). Patients with active fungal infections are eligible only if evidence of response to antifungal medications is documented and they do not have fever exceeding 38 degrees C. - Patients should have the following organ function prior to inclusion into the study: - Creatinine - Patients should have values equal to or less than 1.5 times the upper limit of laboratory normal values. - Liver function: Patients should have serum bilirubin values of equal to or less than 2.0 times the upper limit of laboratory values. Patients should have SGOT and SGPT levels equal to or less than 2.0 times the upper limit of laboratory normal values. - Cardiac Function: Patients with cardiovascular disease should be
