This study will test whether MB-CART19.1 is a safe and effective treatment for central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL). This study will test different doses of MB-CART19.1 to find the highest dose that causes few or mild side effects in participants.
The investigators will conduct a pilot feasibility and efficacy trial of a newly developed family health communication tool (called Let's Get REAL) in increasing youth involvement in real-time stem cell transplant and cellular therapy decisions (SCTCT). The investigators will pilot the intervention among 24 youth and their parents, stratified by youth age (stratum 1, 8-12 years of age and stratum 2, 13-17 years of age).
This is an open-label phase 1 safety and feasibility study that will employ multi-tumor antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (TSA-T) directed against proteogenomically determined personalized tumor-specific antigens (TSA) derived from a patient's primary brain tumor tissues. Young patients with embryonal central nervous system (CNS) malignancies typically are unable to receive irradiation due to significant adverse effects and are treated with intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell rescue; however, despite intensive therapy, many of these patients relapse. In this study, individualized TSA-T cells will be generated against proteogenomically determined tumor-specific antigens after standard of care treatment in children less than 5 years of age with embryonal brain tumors. Correlative biological studies will measure clinical anti-tumor, immunological and biomarker effects.
This is an observational study that will include both participants with relapsed/refractory Multiple Myeloma and their doctors. The purpose of this study is to gather information about the use of hematopoietic cell transplantation/HCT and B-cell maturation antigen /BCMS targeted chimeric antigen receptor/CAR autologous T-cell therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether adult stem cells, called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) collected from the patient's bone marrow can help reduce pain caused by chronic pancreatitis and improve pancreatic function.
This study is designed to collect long-term safety and survival data from participants previously treated in an eligible Century-sponsored index trial. This is an observational study, and the elements of the study design allow for important follow-up for safety, survival, and the continued evaluation of any late adverse events (AEs) that may appear after treatment with such cellular products. Additionally, collection of persistence data from participants will support the identification of any long-term risks or late AEs that may be causally related to treatment with such cellular products.
The goal of this study is to determine whether a palliative care intervention (PEACE) can improve the quality of life and experiences of participants with Lymphoma, Leukemia, or Multiple Myeloma receiving adoptive cellular therapy (ACT). After completion of an open pilot, participants will be randomly assigned into one of two study intervention groups. The names of the study intervention groups involved in this study are: * Palliative care (PEACE) plus usual oncology care * Usual care (standard oncology care) Participation in this research study is expected to last for up to 2 years. It is expected that about 90 people will take part in this research study.
This is a prospective international multi-center registry and biorepository trial of children and adolescents/young adults (AYA) undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) to assess the impact of endotheliopathies in the HCT setting as a contributor of significant morbidity and mortality.
The primary purpose of the Research Sample Repository is to make blood samples available for research studies related to histocompatibility and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) or other cellular therapy. Representatives of participating centers and investigators or research groups may request access to research samples contained in the Research Sample Repository for the purpose of conducting research including: * investigating molecular explanations for histocompatibility or clinical outcomes through analysis of genomic, epigenetic, or other biomolecular data * evaluating the factors that affect transplant or cellular therapy outcome * studying the distribution of HLA tissue types in different populations * studying the success of transplantation, cellular therapies or supportive care in the management of marrow toxic injuries * performing de-linked (anonymous) research
Spina bifida, or myelomeningocele (MMC), is a birth defect that results in paralysis, excess fluid on the brain (hydrocephalus), and impaired ability to urinate and have bowel movements normally. In a previous study (the MOMS trial), surgery before birth (in-utero/fetal surgery) was shown to reduce the need for shunting for hydrocephalus. There was also some improvement in ambulation, but 58 % of the children still could not walk unassisted. This study is testing living stem cells from placenta added to the fetal repair in an effort to improve the ability to walk. Previous animal studies have shown dramatic improvement in walking and bowel and bladder function when placental stem cells are added to MMC repair. Use of these "living" cells may protect the developing spinal cord, prevent further injury, and may even reverse existing damage to the nerves that control movement. This study is assessing the safety and efficacy of adding stem cells to open fetal surgery for MMC in humans.
