929 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Background: After an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), the donor genome is found in the recipient s circulation and tissues. Post-HSCT recipients may receive a medication in which the dosing needs to be adjusted based on genetic variation. While genes in donor genome may influence dosing and administration of some agents, the majority of established gene-drug pairs in pharmacogenetics are related to expression of metabolic or transporting enzymes located in recipients tissues, often the liver. Determining which genetic variants influence drug disposition in HSCT recipients is complicated by chimerism in samples that are routinely collected for determining genotype. However, chimerism in tissues is poorly studied in this patient population. Objectives: To determine the most reliable host genomic source for pharmacogenetic testing in participants that have received allogeneic HSCT. Eligibility: People ages 18 years and older who are enrolled on a clinical trial at the NIH Clinical Center under which they will donate or receive an allogeneic HSCT. Design: DNA is collected prior to HSCT and for two years after HSCT. Blood will be collected and skin fibroblast cell lines will be established prior to HSCT to serve as a reference genome. Blood, buccal cells, skin, and hair will be monitored for the development of mixed chimerism via detection of short tandem repeats. Liver biopsies will be collected from participants undergoing hepatic surgery. Pharmacoscan arrays will be conducted to determine which samples are useful for pharmacogenetic testing in participants who receive allogeneic HSCT. A probe drug cocktail will be administered pre- and post-HSCT to determine if transplantation alters the metabolic phenotype of liver enzymes. ...

Acute Myeloid Leukemia, Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Background: Stem cell transplants (called hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, or HSCT) are used to treat various diseases. But when the cells for this procedure are donated by someone other than the person who receives the HSCT ( allogeneic HSCT ), the recipient has an increased risk of lung inflammation and scarring. This happens when their immune cells attack healthy lung cells. In this natural history study, researchers will look for the best ways to detect developing lung inflammations earlier after an HSCT. Objective: To see if certain tests can detect early signs of lung inflammation in people after HSCT. Eligibility: People aged 5 to 70 years who will have HSCT as part of another NIH study. Design: Participants will undergo these tests prior to their HSCT. These tests will then be repeated regularly for 2 years: Ultra-low dose computed tomography (CT) scans. Participants will lie on a table that slides through a machine; the machine uses X-rays to get pictures of the inside of the body. This type of scan uses less radiation than normal CT scans. Bronchoscopy with lavage: Participants will be sedated. A flexible tube will be inserted through the mouth and into the airways. Salt water will be squirted into the lung, then sucked out to collect cells and fluids from the lung. Another tube with a camera may be inserted into the airways to take pictures. Blood tests. Blood will be drawn every 2 to 4 weeks. Pulmonary function tests. Participants will breathe into a machine to test their lung function. They will see how far they can walk in 6 minutes.
Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)

Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute
Background: People who receive an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) require long-term care at home afterwards. Their caregivers often experience high levels of stress, which can lead to symptoms such as depression, anxiety, poor sleep, fatigue, and difficulties with concentration and memory. Objective: To explore whether a nature-based immersive virtual reality (VR) program helps reduce stress in people who care for HSCT patients. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older who are primary caregivers of HSCT patients. Design: This is a two-phase study. Participants will be enrolled for 4 weeks. They will have 2 clinic visits. Participants will have a physical exam at the beginning of the study. They will be asked to provide a saliva sample in Phase 1, and saliva and blood samples in Phase 2. Participants will be given a VR headset. This is a device that looks like a pair of goggles worn over the eyes. They will be asked to wear the headset for 20 minutes per day. They will see 360 (Infinite) high-definition videos of nature and hear nature sounds. Participants will record the time they spend using the VR headset in a daily diary. They will take surveys with questions about any stress and symptoms they feel once a week. This will take up to 5 minutes. Participants will have a short regular follow-up visit by phone one week after starting their participation. At the end of the intervention study, participants will return for another physical exam. They will give saliva and/or blood samples again. Researchers will also look at the medical records of the HSCT patients; the HSCT patients must consent to this.
Neoplasm, Caregivers
Background: People with GATA2 deficiency have a mutation on the GATA2 gene. This gene affects immune function. People with this disease are prone to serious infections; in time, they may develop blood cancers. A hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplant can cure GATA2 deficiency, but using stem cells donated by other people can cause serious side effects. Objective: To test a new drug (Briquilimab) to see if it can make HSC transplants safer. Eligibility: People aged 6 to 70 years who have GATA2 deficiency. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam, with blood and urine tests. They will have tests of their heart and lung function. They may have a bone marrow biopsy: Their hip will be numbed; a large needle will be inserted to draw out tissue from inside the pelvis. Participants will have a central venous catheter placed in a vein of the neck or chest. This will be used to draw blood and administer drugs. Briquilimab will be given through the catheter about 11 days before the transplant. This is part of conditioning: preparing the body to receive the new stem cells. Conditioning also includes other medications and total body irradiation. Donor stem cells will be administered through the catheter. Participants will receive other approved drugs to help prevent side effects. Participants will stay in the hospital from the beginning of the conditioning until several weeks after the transplant. They will remain in the local area for 100 days after discharge; they will come to the clinic at least once a week during this time. Follow-up visits will continue for 3 years.
GATA2, Immunodeficiency
This phase Ib trial evaluates the safety and most effective dose of a cytomegalovirus (CMV) pp65 peptide-loaded alpha-type-1 polarized dendritic cell (CMV-alphaDC1) vaccination in patients who are undergoing an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. CMV is an opportunistic infection that can occur or reactivate after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant as a result of immunosuppression. The CMV-alphaDC1 vaccine is made of white blood cells that have been exposed to molecules called cytokines, as well as CMV proteins. Introducing these dendritic cells to the patients immune system may activate an immune response to CMV, protecting against infection or reactivation.
Cytomegaloviral Infection, Hematopoietic and Lymphoid System Neoplasm

Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with moderate or severe cGVHD that has not responded to 2 or more lines of previous treatment. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have blood and urine tests. They will have tests of their heart and lung function. They may also have a CT scan. Some may have other specialized tests. Participants will take the study drug at home every day. Pacritinib is a capsule taken by mouth. The study doctor will determine the dosage and schedule. Participants will keep a medication diary. They will record the date and time of each drug dose and any missed doses. Participants will visit the clinic every 2 weeks for the first 4 months. Then they will visit the clinic once every 4 weeks. They will have blood and urine tests. During some visits, other screening tests will be repeated, and participants will fill out questionnaires about their quality of life. Photographs may be taken of skin rashes and joints affected by cGVHD. Participants will give saliva samples. Optional biopsies may be taken of the skin and mouth. Participants will take pacritinib for 6 to 12 months if no side effects develop. Follow-up visits will continue for up to 2 years. ...

Design: Participants will undergo screening. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests and tests of their heart function and breathing. They will have imaging scans. They will have a bone marrow biopsy; a needle will be inserted into their hip to draw a sample of tissue from the bone. A tube called a catheter will be placed into a vein in the participant s chest. This catheter will remain in place for the transplant and recovery period. Blood for tests can be drawn from the catheter, and medications and the stem cells can be administered through it. Participants will be in the hospital for either 10 or 21 days to receive 3 or 4 drugs before the transplant. They will get 2 doses of total body radiation on the same day. Participants will receive donor stem cells through the catheter. They will remain in the hospital for 6 weeks afterward. Participants will visit the clinic 2 to 3 times per week for 3 months after discharge. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 years.

Lymphoproliferative Disorders, Autoimmune Lymphoproliferative, Immune System Diseases, Common Variable Immunodeficiency, Primary T-cell Immunodeficiency Disorders
High dose chemotherapy and radiation used as preparative regimens in patients undergoing an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) disrupts intestinal homeostasis by damaging the intestinal epithelium and altering the intestinal microbiome. The investigators hypothesize that 2'-fucosyllactose (2FL) supplementation will be safe and tolerable and result in an increase in the relative abundance of intestinal Bifidobacteria. The investigators also hypothesize that 2FL supplementation will lead to reduction of Firmicutes and/or Proteobacteria, and improved intestinal homeostasis at day+30 as measured by lower pro-inflammatory cytokines, reduced levels of T-cell activation, lower markers of intestinal injury (fecal human DNA and plasma reg-3-alpha), increased fecal butyrate levels and ultimately lower incidence of acute GVHD and BSI at day+100. Phase II: The investigators hypothesize that 2FL supplementation will be safe and tolerable and result in an increase in the relative abundance of fecal short chain fatty acids such as butyrate, acetate and propionate at day+7 compared to baseline values.
