Hematocrit to Hemoglobin Ratio and Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Polycythemia Vera and Secondary Erythrocytosis.
Polycythemia vera (PV), a hematological neoplasm characterized by excessive erythropoiesis due to Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)- activating mutations. On the other hand, patients with secondary polycythemia (SP), a disorder mostly caused by an increased red cell mass due to chronic hypoxia (i.e, pulmonary disorders and smoking) and erythropoietin-producing tumors (such as leiomyoma, hemangiomas, renal cysts and various carcinomas), are phenotypically slightly different and are usually considered to have significantly better outcomes. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) reflects the heterogeneity of red blood cell sizes (anisocytosis)...

HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation With Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide
This is a prospective, multi-center, Phase II study of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) using human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) for peripheral blood stem cell transplant in adults and bone marrow stem cell transplant in children. Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) will be used for for graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. This trial will study how well this treatment works in patients with hematologic malignancies.

HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation With Reduced Dose Post Transplantation Cyclophosphamide GvHD Prophylaxis
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Reduced Dose Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in patients with hematologic malignancies after receiving an HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Donor (MMUD) . The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does a reduced dose of PTCy reduce the occurrence of infections in the first 100 days after transplant? - Does a reduced dose of PTCy maintain the same level of protection against Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) as the standard dose of PTCy?

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Stem Cell (PBSC) Transplant
The purpose of this study is to determine if hyperbaric oxygen therapy is safe in the setting of stem cell transplantation. This study will also determine if hyperbaric oxygen therapy improves engraftment, graft versus host disease, neutrophil count, and incidence and severity of mucositis (inflammation of the mouth or gut) and infection. This study has two cohorts. The first cohort is subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS). The second cohort is subjects with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML), chronic monocytic leukemia, chronic neutrophilic leukemia ...

I Can Move With Purpose Now! A Pilot Lifestyle Intervention Study in Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Patients
The goal of this study is to see if patients with myeloproliferative disorders are able to successfully complete the Cardiac Lifestyle Program(CLP). The goal of the CLP is to teach patients how to become more active and eat healthier foods. The name of the intervention used in this research study is: Cardiac Lifestyle Program (a 12-week, tailored nutrition and physical activity program)

Impact of Epigenetic Age on Clinic-biological Presentation and Prognosis in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Epigenetic Age in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (EpiC)
Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) are hematological malignancies characterized by the excessive production of myeloid cells. MPN can be complicated by thrombosis and evolution into more aggressive diseases (myelofibrosis and acute leukemia). Aging remains the principal factor determining patients' survival in MPN. In recent years, DNA methylation has appeared as a mean to measure aging via the development of epigenetic clocks that have also been associated with the occurrence of thrombosis and cancer. The epiC project aims at determining epigenetic age of MPN patients and search for an association between this parameter and ...

Impact of Personality on Adherence to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Therapy in Pts w/Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
This is an observational pilot study to examine the association between a patient's personality and adherence to tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.

Improving Cognitive Function in Older Adults Undergoing Stem Cell Transplant
Cancer and treatment-related cognitive changes hinder resumption of normal routine and roles and worsen quality of life. Older adults undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are at high-risk for cognitive impairment. Physical activity improves cognitive function in older adults and survivors of other cancers. We hypothesize that increasing physical activity can also improve cognitive function in this vulnerable population. The objective of this research is to adapt and test an evidence-based physical activity intervention, The Community Health Activities Model Program for Seniors II (CHAMPS II), in the HCT setting for adults...

INCB000928 Administered as a Monotherapy or in Combination With Ruxolitinib in Participants With Anemia Due to Myeloproliferative Disorders
This Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-finding study is intended to evaluate the safety and tolerability, PK, PD, and efficacy of INCB000928 administered as monotherapy or in combination with ruxolitinib in participants with MF who are transfusion-dependent or presenting with symptomatic anemia. This study will consist of 2 parts: dose escalation and expansion.
