408 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This clinical trial examines sustained oral fiber supplementation for patients undergoing donor stem cell transplantation for hematological malignancies. Patients undergoing donor stem cell transplantation often develop oral and gastrointestinal damage from chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or graft-versus-host disease. Oral fiber nutrition support may improve overall nutrition, support a normal gut microbiome (bacteria that live in the gut) and/or improve gut function in patients undergoing stem cell transplants.
The purpose of this sub-study is to use positron emission tomography and computed tomography imaging (PET/CT) with an investigational drug called \[11C\] acetate to see if inflammation in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) can cause changes in blood flow and oxygen use in the heart. This study may help physicians better understand how to treat patients diagnosed with ADHF in the future.
The purpose of this Phase 1, first in human open-label study is to assess the safety and tolerability of TRX-103 in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing HLA-mismatched related or unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It is anticipated that up to 36 Subjects will be enrolled during a 18-24 month enrollment period. TRX-103 will be infused one time post HSCT.
The study is designed to examine the feasibility and safety of collecting autologous hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to be combined with CAR T-cell therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory (r/r) hematological disease. The study will evaluate feasibility of collecting the target dose of HSCs from at least 50% of enrolled patients. The study will assess safety based on incidence and severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) in the first 60 days post CAR T dosing, and also through the collection of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) as well as the durability of response after treatment with HSCs with CAR T. The study follows an open-label, single-center and single non-randomized cohort design. 20 subjects with r/r hematological malignancies will be enrolled and treated to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary safety of collecting autologous HSCs and combining them with CAR T-cell therapy.
The participants are being asked to take part in this clinical trial because the participant have a lymphoid or myeloid based cancer diagnosis that requires a bone marrow transplant. Primary Objectives To estimate the incidence of severe acute GVHD (saGVHD) using a prophylaxis regimen with no calcineurin inhibitors after day +60 post first allogeneic Human Leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling or unrelated donor HCT for hematological malignancies. Secondary objective Determine the cumulative incidence of relapse, NRM, chronic GVHD, and OS in study participants at one year post-transplant. Exploratory objectives * To evaluate the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profiles of ruxolitinib, fludarabine, and rATG. * To assess immune reconstitution in study participants within the first year post-HCT.
This study evaluates the risks and experience of blood clots and bleeding in patients with blood cancers. While it is standard of care to use medications to reduce the risk of blood clots in hospitalized individuals, some patients with blood cancers have low platelet counts that can increase the concern for bleeding complications associated with these medications. At this time, the optimal management strategies for blood clots are not well known for patients with blood cancers. This pilot study evaluates additional information that could help doctors know which patients are at highest risk for blood clots.
This is an open-label study, where participants will be given ceftolozane-tazobactam as the primary treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. Open-label means both the investigator and the participant will known what drug will be given. Participants will be followed for approximately 60 days. Ceftolozane-tazobactam is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of serious bacterial infection and the investigator hypothesizes that ceftolozane/tazobactam may be effective as the primary antibiotic treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections.
This phase II trial studies how well a 2-step approach to stem cell transplant works in treating patients with blood cancers. Giving chemotherapy and total body irradiation before a lymphocyte (white blood cell) and stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. By giving the donor cells in two steps, the dose of lymphocytes given can be tightly controlled and they can be made more tolerant to the body. When the healthy lymphocytes and stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient, they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells called graft versus host disease. Giving tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil may stop this from happening.
This pilot study evaluates safety of administration of red blood cell transfusions requested by patients based on their symptoms instead of levels of hemoglobin for the treatment of chronic anemia in patients with blood disorders.
Current protocols use G-CSF to mobilize hematopoietic progenitor cells from matched sibling and volunteer unrelated donors. Unfortunately, this process requires four to six days of G-CSF injection and can be associated with side effects, most notably bone pain and rarely splenic rupture. BL-8040 is given as a single SC injection, and collection of cells occurs on the same day as BL-8040 administration. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of this novel agent for hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization and allogeneic transplantation based on the following hypotheses: * Healthy HLA-matched donors receiving one injection of BL-8040 will mobilize sufficient CD34+ cells (at least 2.0 x 10\^6 CD34+ cells/kg recipient weight) following no more than two leukapheresis collections to support a hematopoietic cell transplant. * The hematopoietic cells mobilized by SC BL-8040 will be functional and will result in prompt and durable hematopoietic engraftment following transplantation into HLA-identical siblings with advanced hematological malignancies using various non-myeloablative and myeloablative conditioning regimens and regimens for routine GVHD prophylaxis. * If these hypotheses 1 and 2 are confirmed after an interim safety analysis of the data, then the study will continue and include recruitment of haploidentical donors.
This pilot clinical trial studies donor stem cell transplant followed by cyclophosphamide in treating patients with hematological diseases. Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells (called graft-versus-host disease). Giving cyclophosphamide after the transplant may stop this from happening.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well giving vorinostat, tacrolimus, and methotrexate works in preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after stem cell transplant in patients with hematological malignancies. Vorinostat, tacrolimus, and methotrexate may be an effective treatment for GVHD caused by a bone marrow transplant.
This pilot clinical trial studies supportive care for patients with hematological malignancies undergoing hematopoietic cell transplant. Supportive care may improve quality of life in this patient population.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of donor cord blood T-cells after stem cell transplant in treating patients with relapsed hematological malignancies. After umbilical cord blood transplant, stem cells are collected from the donor's cord blood and stored. The stem cells are then returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by treatment. Removing the T cells and treating them in the laboratory before infusing them in the patient may also help boost the patient's immune system.
This randomized phase I trial studies the side effects of vaccine therapy in preventing cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Vaccines made from a tetanus-CMV peptide or antigen may help the body build an effective immune response and prevent or delay the recurrence of CMV infection in patients undergoing donor stem cell transplant for hematological malignancies.
Phase II trial evaluating the safety \& efficacy of Atorvastatin for prophylaxis of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) in patients with hematological malignances undergoing human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-Matched Related Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT).
The purpose of this research study is to compare the survival rates of patients with better risk disease undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) to the survival rates reported in the medical literature of similar patients undergoing reduced intensity HSCT from matched related donors.
This research study uses a drug called cyclophosphamide to decrease the incidence of GVHD in matched sibling hematopoietic stem cell transplant. In doing so, the goal of the study is to increase overall survival.
This is study is for patients that have been diagnosed with high-risk hematological malignancies. The main purpose of this study is to confirm previously published results of stem cell transplantation with reduced intensity pre-transplant conditioning. Patients will be assigned to 1 of 3 regimens depending on the patient's diagnosis. Participants will be followed by the transplant team for the remainder of the patient's life. Patient's will visit MUSC daily, then visits will be reduced to frequent visits for up to 6 months. After 6 months, the visits will be reduced more depending on the patient's condition.
RATIONALE: Giving total marrow and total lymph node irradiation together with low doses of chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of total marrow and total lymph node irradiation when given together with fludarabine and melphalan followed by donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with advanced hematological cancer that has not responded to treatment.
To evaluate engraftment and toxicity of a reduced intensity preparative regimen for patients who receive a matched related or unrelated donor allogeneic stem cell transplant (ASCT) for malignant hematological diseases
Participants in this study have a hematologic malignancy (a disorder in the bone marrow that affects the body's ability to create blood) that might benefit from receiving an allogeneic stem cell transplant (meaning the cells come from a donor) from a family member or nearly identical matched donor. The donor may either be a matched sibling, a mismatched family member, or an unrelated person. Usually these patients are given high doses of chemotherapy before receiving a stem cell transplant to keep their immune system from rejecting the donor stem cells and to kill any diseased cells that remain in the body. However, this group of patients have a high risk of developing possibly life-threatening treatment-related side effects such as infections, damage to vital organs such as lungs, liver, kidney and heart, as well as graft versus host disease (GVHD). Instead of the high dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy usually given before a transplant, this research study uses a new pre-transplant combination of three drugs, Fludarabine, Anti-CD45 and CAMPATH-1H with low dose radiotherapy. Fludarabine is a chemotherapy drug while Anti-CD45 and CAMPATH-1H are antibodies against certain types of blood cells, including those which are causing this disease. CAMPATH-1H is particularly important because it stays active in the body for a long time after it is given, which means it may work longer to prevent GVHD symptoms. Anti-CD45 may help in eradicating residual malignant cells. All these agents also help in preventing rejection of donor stem cells. This study is designed to give a less intense chemotherapy and radiotherapy, so that the life-threatening toxicities of conventional high dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy regimen can be reduced, while maintaining the ability to cure cancer.
Many patients with hematological malignancies potentially curable by bone marrow transplantation are not considered for transplantation because an HLA identical family or unrelated donor is unavailable. For these patients the only curative option is a transplant from a partially matched family donor. Such transplants are feasible but are less successful than matched sibling donor transplants. The main problems with mismatched transplants are graft rejection, graft-vs-host disease, and regimen-related mortality. This restricts the use of mismatched transplants to patients less than 45 years at high risk of dying from the hematological malignancy. This protocol evaluates a new preparative regimen designed to ensure stem cell engraftment by increased immunosuppression, followed by a G-CSF mobilized T cell depleted, stem cell rich, peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplant from a mismatched related donor in patients with high risk hematological malignancies. This phase I study evaluates engraftment and GVHD following T cell depleted, HLA-mismatched PBPC transplants. Stopping rules will be used to make modifications to the protocol in the event of graft failure. The end points of the study are graft take, acute and chronic GVHD, leukemic relapse, transplant-related mortality, death and leukemia-free survival. Patients will be followed up for 5 years. It is planned to treat up to 35 patients aged between 10 and 45 years.
This is a first-in-human, multicenter, open-label, phase 1 study to evaluate the safety, PK, PD and preliminary efficacy of STX-0712 in patients with advanced CMML and AML for whom there are no further treatment options known to confer clinical benefit.
This will be a phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation and expansion, FIH trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary efficacy of JBZ-001, a DHODH inhibitor, in patients with refractory solid and hematological malignancies. The study design includes two independent parts: dose escalation in solid tumors and NHL (Part 1), and up to four indication expansions in selected solid tumor types and NHL (Part 2). The dose escalation will enroll patients with solid tumors and NHL following a standard "3+3" design enrolling a minimum of 3 and up to 6 patients per dose level.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the effects of weighted blankets on sleep quality in patients with blood cancers. Weighted blankets are heavier blankets that contain inner weight beads. The deep pressure stimulation induced by these blankets can have a calming effect.
This is a parallel, Phase 1/Phase 2, randomized, open label, multi-cohort, multi-center study assessing the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of SAR443579 with different agents for treatment in adolescent and/or adult participants with CD123 expressing hematological malignancies. This protocol is structured as a master protocol (containing common protocol elements). Individual sub-studies will explore SAR443579 with combination partners, which may include approved or investigational agents. Experimental sub-studies will be tested through 3 parts: Part 1: dose finding (such as dose escalation/ safety run-in). Part 2: dose optimization (when applicable). Part 3: dose expansion. In each sub-study, a dose escalation will identify preliminary recommended dose for expansion (pRDE) of SAR443579 and its respective combination partner. Following the determination of the preliminary RDE, additional participants will be enrolled in the dose expansion part, or if dose optimization needs to be further evaluated, additional participants will be enrolled in the "dose optimization/expansion" part. Dose optimization and dose expansion part could involve randomization depending on specific sub-study design. Study will consist of a screening period, treatment period, and follow-up period. Participants will receive study treatment until documented disease progression, unacceptable adverse events, participant's decision to stop study treatment, or completion of the maximum cycles allowed in the sub-studies, or the participant meets other criteria for discontinuation per study protocol (whichever occurs first).
The study participant has one of the following blood cancers: acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)/myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL, T-ALL) or Lymphoma. Your cancer has been difficult to treat (refractory) or has come back after treatment (relapse). Primary Objective To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of intravenous infusions of escalating doses of CD70-CAR T cells in patients (≤21 years) with recurrent/refractory CD70+ hematological malignancies after lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Secondary Objectives To evaluate the antileukemic activity of CD70-CAR T cells. We will determine the anti- leukemic activity of the CD70-CAR T cells in the bone marrow and in the treatment of extramedullary disease.
To learn if ASTX727 given alone or in combination with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) can help to control certain types of hematological neoplasms (blood-based cancers) after a stem cell transplant.
This is a modular, multicentre, open-label, Phase I/II, dose-setting study. AZD9829 will be administered intravenously as monotherapy or in combination in participants with CD123 positive hematological malignancies.
