6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Primary Objective: 1. To evaluate the safety of orally administered Lactobacillus plantarum strains 299 and 299v, a probiotic, in patients undergoing allogeneic myeloablative HSCT, as measured by incidence of Lactobacillus plantarum bacteremia. Secondary Objectives: 1. To investigate the feasibility of administering Lactobacillus plantarum 299 and 299v to children and adolescents undergoing HSCT. 2. To describe the overall incidence of bacteremia in HSCT patients who have been administered Lactobacillus plantarum. 3. To describe the overall incidence of acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) in HSCT patients who have been administered Lactobacillus plantarum.
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder where red blood cells, that carry oxygen, are stiff and become stuck in small blood vessels. As a result, affected patients can experience severe pain and serious organ damage. SCD can be cured with a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT), that is, when they receive blood stem cells from a family donor. But HCT can also have serious side effects, especially in people with organ damage. Researchers want to find ways to make HCT safer for everyone. Objective: To test a new combination of drugs (briquilimab, abatacept, and alemtuzumab), used along with radiation, in people undergoing HCT for SCD. Eligibility: People aged 16 and older with SCD. They must be eligible for HCT and have a family member who is a good donor match. Donors must be aged 4 and older. Design: Participants with SCD will be screened. They will have blood tests and tests of organs including their heart and lung function. Donors will have blood drawn. Participants with SCD will have a tube inserted into a blood vessel in their chest (intravenously). This line will remain in place up to 2 months; it will be used to draw blood and administer the donor cells and other medications. Briquilimab will be administered intravenously 1 time, along with other drugs used to prepare for HCT. Participants will receive abatacept 6 times, from just before they receive their donor cells until 6 months after. Participants will undergo radiation therapy and take other drugs that are standard for HCT. Most HCT recipients remain in the hospital for about 30 days after HCT. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 years....
This trial studies the side effects and how well allogeneic cytomegalovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (donor cytomegalovirus \[CMV\] specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes \[CTLs\]) or allogeneic adenovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (donor adenovirus-specific \[AdV\] specific CTLs) work in treating CMV or AdV reactivation or infection in participants who have undergone stem cell transplant or solid organ transplant. White blood cells from donors may be able to kill cancer cells in patients with cytomegalovirus or adenovirus that has come back after a stem cell or solid organ transplant.
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical benefit and characterize the safety profile of tabelecleucel for the treatment of Epstein-Barr virus-associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (EBV+ PTLD) in the setting of (1) solid organ transplant (SOT) after failure of rituximab (SOT-R) and rituximab plus chemotherapy (SOT-R+C) or (2) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) after failure of rituximab.
The participants are being asked to take part in this clinical trial, a type of research study, because the participants are scheduled to receive or have recently received a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) or a solid organ transplant (SOT). Primary Objective To determine if pre-transplant screening for respiratory viral load predicts RVI within 1- year post-transplant among survivors. Secondary Objectives: * To develop and validate a classifier based on pre-transplant immunological profile predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI), with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors. * To develop and validate a classifier based on Day +100 post-transplant immunological profiles predictive of developing an acute respiratory viral infection (aRVI),with RSV/PIV3/HMPV/SARS-CoV-2 through one-year post-transplant among survivors .
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of tabelecleucel in participants with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) associated diseases.
