Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (OSMI, allogeneic transplant)Experimental Treatment9 Interventions
CONDITIONING REGIMEN: Patients undergo organ-sparing marrow irradiation BID on days -6 to -4 and receive cyclophosphamide IV over 1-2 hours every 24 hours on days -3 to -2. Patients with an unrelated donor also receive anti-thymocyte globulin every 24 hours on days -4 to -2. GVHD PROPHYLAXIS: Patients receive tacrolimus IV or PO beginning on day -1 and continuing for at least 6 months and methotrexate IV on days 1, 3, 6, and 11. TRANSPLANT: Patients undergo allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell or bone marrow transplant on day 0.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Who meets the requirements to become a participant in this research endeavor?

"Patients must meet certain criteria to be eligible for this trial, including adult acute myeloid leukemia with del(5q) and falling between the ages of 18-75. About 33 individuals will have their admission accepted."

Answered by AI

Could you inform me if this experiment is currently enrolling participants?

"At this time, no more participants are being admitted for this clinical trial. It was initially posted on July 27th 2015 and its information was last updated October 7th 2022. For those looking to find other studies, there are currently 3951 trials actively recruiting patients with adult acute myeloid leukemia with del(5q) and 1053 investigations into peripheral blood stem cell transplantation which have openings available."

Answered by AI

Is the age requirement for this research limited to those below 25 years of age?

"The parameters for participation in this clinical trial specify that patients must be aged between 18 and 75. On the other hand, there are 1334 studies available to people under the age of consent and 3932 research projects targeting those above 65 years old."

Answered by AI

How many participants are actively engaged in this research endeavor?

"This experiment is no longer accepting participants, with the original posting occurring on July 27th 2015 and its final update coming from October 7th 2022. However, 3951 trials are currently open for patients diagnosed with adult acute myeloid leukemia with del(5q) while 1053 medical studies regarding peripheral blood stem cell transplantation remain active."

Answered by AI

What other experiments have looked at the effects of peripheral blood stem cell transplantation?

"At present, 1053 clinical studies are assessing the efficacy of peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Of those active trials, 206 have progressed to Phase 3 testing. While most research is occurring in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania there are 30458 locations running similar experiments."

Answered by AI

What health conditions are typically treated with peripheral blood stem cell transplantation?

"Notably, peripheral blood stem cell transplantation is used to treat small cell lung cancer (sclc) but can also be utilized in the management of dermatitis, atopic conditions, multiple sclerosis, leukemia and myelocytic acute."
