This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study exploring the effects of a yeast-derived β-glucan on clinically significant fatigue among survivors of autologous HCT due to multiple myeloma. The primary aim is to evaluate the effect of β-glucan supplementation on changes in fatigue symptoms, as assessed by the Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) global fatigue score, by testing the differences in changes in scores from baseline to the mid-point (mean of weeks 1-4) and to the end of the intervention (mean of weeks 5-8).
This is a Phase 1, open-label, non-randomized, single and multiple dose escalation study designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of administering Mana 312 to subjects with AML/MDS after allogeneic HSCT.
Children undergoing chemotherapy, radiation treatment and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) have significant difficulties achieving good oral hygiene and dental plaque control. HSCT recipients are at a significant risk for bacteremia and sepsis. Livionex® toothpaste was shown to be effective in reducing dental plaques while containing no additives found in other toothpastes that can cause increased gingival irritation. The investigators hypothesize that improved oral hygiene and better plaque control in pediatric patients receiving chemo/radiation treatment or HSCT may result in reduced oral inflammation, decreased amount of oral bacterial pathogens, and reduced risk of oral-pathogen related systemic bacterial infections. The overall goal of this prospective randomized (2:1) pilot study is to determine whether incorporation of the Livionex® toothpaste in the research regimen could reduce dental plaque.
The protocol is designed for the compassionate treatment of patients with Fanconi Anemia who do not have an HLA-matched sibling donor. The purpose of this study is to determine the likelihood of engraftment in Fanconi Anemia patients using total body irradiation (TBI), cyclophosphamide (CY), fludarabine (FLU) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG) followed by an unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplant with T-cell depletion using the CliniMACS device.
The purpose of this trial is to study the safety and effectiveness of a drug called Bortezomib for the treatment of low blood cell counts after bone marrow transplant.
The purpose of the study is to determine the maximal tolerated dose and schedule of CC-486, known as oral azacitidine, in patients with AML or MDS after allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT is more frequently used in AML or MDS as a potential curative therapy. However, disease recurrence/relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remain the principal causes of fatal complications after transplantation. Oral azacitidine has significant activity in MDS and AML. Oral azacitidine has also demonstrated immunomodulatory activity in AML patients after allogeneic HSCT. An oral formulation of oral azacitidine provides a convenient route of administration and an opportunity to deliver the drug over a prolonged schedule.
This is a clinical trial of bone marrow transplantation for patients with the diagnosis of a genetic disease of blood cells that do not have an HLA-matched sibling donor. Genetic diseases of blood cell include: Red blood cell defects e.g. hemoglobinopathies (sickle cell disease and thalassemia), Blackfan-Diamond anemia and congenital or chronic hemolytic anemias; White blood cells defects/immune deficiencies e.g. chronic granulomatous disease, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome,Osteopetrosis, Kostmann's syndrome (congenital neutropenia), Hereditary Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH); Platelets defects e.g.Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia; Metabolic/storage disorders e.g. leukodystrophies,mucopolysaccharidoses as Hurler disease;Stem cell defects e.g.reticular agenesis, among many other rare similar conditions. The study treatment plan uses a new transplant treatment regimen that aims to try to decrease the acute toxicities and complications associated with the standard treatment plans and to improve outcome The blood stem cells will be derived from either unrelated donor or unrelated umbilical cord blood.
The objectives of this study are as follows: To demonstrate the safety of escalating doses of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation To determine the pharmacokinetics of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation To determine if IV administration of opebacan is associated with changes in biological markers for inflammation To develop preliminary descriptive data on the occurrence and severity of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation related complications, including aGvHD
This research study is investigating whether alpha beta T-cell depleted hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) can be an immune system replacement for Crohn disease patients and whether this is safe and effective for patients with early onset, medically refractory Crohn disease.
Mucositis is a normal side effect of stem cell transplant which happens as a result of chemotherapy being given prior to a new donor cell infusion (bone marrow transplant). The chemotherapy will kill cancer cells, but good cells, such as those in the mouth, are killed too. The mouth cells going away causes the areas in the mouth to be blistered, irritated, sore, and extremely painful. Pain medication (usually morphine or hydromorphone if allergic to morphine) are given when oral blisters are seen or felt by patient in patient's mouth. However, one pain medication given through a vein in the patient may or may not be effective and providers are often challenged with providing good pain control while waiting for the new donor cells to grow, which will then heal the mouth. This is a period of waiting that is 6-8 weeks. The investigators know that methadone, a second pain medication, may decrease pain in a different way than morphine. This is because methadone works in a different way in the brain than morphine. By giving these pain medicines together, the hope of the study is to show decreased pain while waiting for new cells to grow. The goal of this clinical trial is to hope to learn whether adding methadone (second pain medication) to the current pain medication which is morphine alone (all patients will receive this pain medication) will help reduce the pain experience of participant. Current treatment of morphine alone is sometimes not entirely effective and so any improvement of pain while waiting for new cells to grow is one of the goals of this study. If methadone is effective in decreasing pain, then patients may benefit in the future from using these two medications up front when getting a transplant. Participant in this study between 6-18 years of age and is needing a stem cell transplant for a disease that can potentially be cured by transplantation. Participant in this study is receiving chemotherapy and/or radiation conditioning that can cause mucositis. Participants are being asked to participate in this study because participants meet criteria to receive methadone that may or may not reduce pain experience versus just being given morphine alone, which is what all patients are given when the participants have mucositis. The main goal of the study is to see if less opioid (pain medication) when methadone is added in comparison to participant who uses PCA only. The investigators also want to learn if patient's overall function is improved if given methadone. Another goal would be to see the number of TPN days the participant received and if the participant who was given methadone began to eat sooner. Other smaller goals include learning about side effects of methadone, and if the hospital stay is less for those who receive the study medication. This medication will be given at Children's Medical Center of Dallas while participant is admitted for the stem cell transplant. There is no sponsor that is funding the study and this drug will be given free of charge in exchange for participation in the study
This Phase 2, single-arm, open-label study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low-dose (25 mg/kg) post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for prophylaxis of Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD) in patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation following reduced-intensity or non-myeloablative conditioning. The study will focus on matched sibling, matched unrelated, and haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell donors. The primary endpoint is 1-year GVHD-Free Relapse-Free Survival (GRFS). The study seeks to determine if low-dose PTCy offers similar outcomes as higher doses, with potentially reduced toxicity.
A single center, open label, interventional, phase II trial for donor transplant for high risk hemoglobinopathies and other red cell transfusion dependent disorders utilizing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) regimens.
The major morbidities of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using donors that are not human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched siblings are graft vs host disease (GVHD) and life- threatening infections. T cell receptor alpha beta (TCRαβ) T lymphocyte depletion and CD19+ B lymphocyte depletion of alternative donor hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) grafts is effective in preventing GVHD, but immune reconstitution may be delayed, increasing the risk of infections. The central hypothesis of this study is that an addback of CD45RO memory T lymphocytes, derived from a fraction of the original donor peripheral stem cell product depleted of CD45RA naïve T lymphocytes, will accelerate immune reconstitution and help decrease the risk of infections in TCRab/CD19 depleted PSCT.

Patients will receive a granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) ± Plerixafor donor mobilized peripheral stem cell donor transplant following CliniMACS® αβT cell/CD19+B cell depletion. Cluster of Differentiation 34 (CD34) and αβT cell content of the graft is determined based on the transplant indication.
This research study is being done to determine the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of defibrotide within a single patient with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS)/veno-occlusive disease (VOD) after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) associated with either kidney and/or lung impairment that has not obtained a complete response (CR) or progressed in severity with standard doses of defibrotide.
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.
This is a Phase II study following subjects proceeding with our Institutional non-myeloablative cyclophosphamide/ fludarabine/total body irradiation (TBI) preparative regimen followed by a related, unrelated, or partially matched family donor stem cell infusion using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy), sirolimus and MMF GVHD prophylaxis.
This is a non-blinded, non-randomized dose escalation study of intravenous FBX-101 in which subjects will receive a single infusion of an adeno-associated virus gene therapy product, after more than 21 days of the HSCT (UCBT preferred HSCT source). Data from previously transplanted patients with infantile and late infantile Krabbe disease will be used as a comparator group.
Background: Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is an immune system disorder that can occur in people who have had a stem cell transplant. cGVHD can affect multiple organs and increase risk of disability and death. New treatments are needed to treat cGVHD after stem cell transplant. Objective: To test a drug (pacritinib) in people with moderate or severe cGVHD that has not responded to previous treatment. 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. ...
