Full Title
Phase I Trial of Targeted Atomic Nano-Generators (Actinium-225-Labeled Humanized Anti-CD33 Monoclonal Antibody HuM195) in Patients with Advanced Myeloid Malignancies
Purpose
HuM195 is an antibody that attaches to leukemia cells but not normal cells. It can identify leukemia cells as foreign and kill small amounts of disease. Attaching a radioactive element to HuM195 may make it more effective for killing leukemia cells because the antibody delivers the radiation directly to the leukemia cells, where the radiation kills them.
In this study, investigators are seeking to determine the optimal dose of HuM195 labeled with a radioactive element called actinium-225 that can be used in patients with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that has not responded to treatment, has returned despite treatment, or has been difficult to treat from the beginning.

Eligibility
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
- Patients must have a confirmed diagnosis of AML, CML, or MDS that has not responded to treatment, has returned despite treatment, or has been difficult to treat from the beginning.
- At least 3 weeks must have passed since the last dose of chemotherapy and 6 weeks since completing any radiation therapy and entry into the study.
- Patients with compatible bone marrow donors and those who are eligible for other effective forms of therapy may not participate in this study.
