Study Summary

This trial is studying whether giving ribociclib and everolimus together with standard chemotherapy drugs may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged between 1 and 30 years with relapsed or refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) or CML in lymphoid blast crisis. They must have at least 1% lymphoblasts in their bone marrow, adequate organ function, no severe heart conditions, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to use contraception. Excluded are those with certain recent treatments, uncontrolled infections, HIV/Hepatitis A/B/C infection.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of ribociclib combined with everolimus and dexamethasone as a treatment for ALL that has returned after treatment or hasn't responded to previous therapies. It aims to see if this drug combination can help patients whose leukemia has been difficult to treat.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include suppressed immune system leading to increased infection risk; mouth sores; diarrhea; fatigue; liver issues indicated by changes in blood tests; potential heart problems like abnormal heartbeat rhythm; and possible allergic reactions.

Am I eligible to take part in this clinical experiment?

"To qualify for this medical experiment, participants must have a diagnosis of leukemia and be between 1 year old to 30. 45 people are needed in total."

Answered by AI

Is this research study currently enlisting participants?

"This clinical trial is not currently seeking new patient enrolment. Initially posted on January 30th 2019 and last modified on May 16th 2022, it does not presently have any open recruitment. For those looking for similar studies, 1498 trials recruiting patients with leukemia are available as well as 688 actively admitting individuals to investigate Ribociclib's efficacy."

Answered by AI

Has Ribociclib been tested in any additional scientific experiments?

"Currently, there are 688 trials actively researching Ribociclib with 167 of those in Phase 3. In Mishawaka, Indiana alone multiple studies for this drug are running concurrently; across the globe 24026 locations are hosting clinical trials regarding Ribociclib."

Answered by AI

Are there age requirements for the participants of this trial?

"The requirements for inclusion in this clinical trial dictate that participants must fall between 1 year and 30 years of age. There are 559 trials available to minors, while the elderly have access to 1796 separate studies."
