Journal ArticleDOI

Phase I and extension study of clofarabine plus cyclophosphamide in patients with relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

TL;DR: The combination of clofarabine plus cyclophosphamide at the doses used in this study in a group of heavily pretreated patients with ALL is only moderately effective and other doses, alternative schedules, or a more favorable patient population may achieve better results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase II Study of Vorinostat in Combination with Idarubicin (Ida) and Cytarabine (ara-C) as Front Line Therapy in Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or Higher Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).

TL;DR: A phase II study of vorinostat followed by Ida and ara-C in pts with AML or MDS, designed to stop early based on a composite endpoint and predefined stopping rules of progression free survival (PFS), toxicity and response rates compared to standard IdA and Ara-C (IA) combination at MD Anderson.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcomes for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.

TL;DR: Outcomes for patients with CLL subsequently diagnosed with AL or MDS were very poor; AL/MDS occurred without prior CLL treatment; shorter survival from MDS correlated with higher risk IPSS, poor-risk karyotype and increased number of prior C LL treatments.
