1,463 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to identify if there is a relationship between multiple sclerosis disease-modifying therapy exposure, immunodeficiencies, and infection risk in subjects living with MS.
This study is trying to find out if an undetectable serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) is a biomarker, or early sign of, the development of immune deficiency.
This is a Phase II trial to determine the ability of a reduced intensity conditioning regimen to allow successful engraftment with alpha/beta T and CD19+ depleted peripheral stem cell grafts from unrelated or partially matched related donors. There are two conditioning regimens depending upon patient diagnosis and age.
Primary: * Demonstrate the utility of an electronic data capture (EDC) system (CareExchange™) using infusion nurse and patient measured physical, quality of life (QOL), respiratory, laboratory, and disability assessments in patients with Primary Immunodeficiency Disease (PIDD). Secondary: * Change in Intravenous/Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin (IVIg/SCIg) dose effects measured outcomes. * Change in IVIg/SCIg dose timing effects measured outcomes. * Change in patient status is reflected in measured outcomes. * Assess the value to physicians from collected outcomes data. * Identify types of patients by response to IVIg/SCIg therapies (well maintained, problematic, etc.). * Change in response rate as measured by outcomes to IVIg/SCIg therapies by disease state, co-morbidities, and demographics.
SCID-X1 is a genetic disorder of blood cells caused by DNA changes in a gene that is required for the normal development of the human immune system. The purpose of this study is to determine if a new method, called lentiviral gene transfer, can be used to treat SCID-X1. This method involves transferring a normal copy of the common gamma chain gene into the participant's bone marrow stem cells. The investigators want to determine if the procedure is safe, whether it can be done according to the methods they have developed, and whether the procedure will provide a normal immune system for the patient. It is hoped that this type of gene transfer may offer a new way to treat children with SCID-X1 that do not have a brother or sister who can be used as a donor for stem cell transplantation.
Background: - Gene therapy is being investigated as a possible treatment for individuals with immunodeficiency diseases or other conditions that make it difficult to fight off infection. Gene therapy avoids problems with donor identification and possible rejection of bone marrow transplant by using the patient s own modified blood cells to help treat the disease. Researchers are interested in collecting stem cells from the blood of individuals with immunodeficiency diseases in order to use the cells to develop potential gene therapy treatments. Objectives: - To collect blood stem cells from patients with immunodeficiency diseases tto test our ability to correct the defects of these cells in the test tube. Eligibility: * Individuals between 18 and 40 years of age with immunodeficiency diseases. * Individuals with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) will not be able to participate in this study. Design: * Participants will provide an initial blood sample for disease screening (such as hepatitis B and C, syphilis, or viruses like the Epstein-Barr virus, herpes simplex virus, or toxoplasmosis) and to check kidney and liver function. * Starting 5 days before blood donation, participants will receive daily injections of a drug called G-CSF (granulocyte colony stimulating factor, or filgrastim), which pushes stem cells out of the bone marrow and into the bloodstream. Participants will receive the injections at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center. * On day 5, participants will have a single leukapheresis procedure to collect the stem cells from the blood. * No additional treatment will be provided as part of this protocol. The cells that are collected will be used fore experiments in the lab and will not be used to treat individuals with these diseases.
The purpose of this study is to determine if NABI-IGIV (10%) \[Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10%\] is safe and effective in preventing serious bacterial infections (SBIs) in the treatment of patients with primary immune deficiency disorders (PIDD) when compared to historical control data.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% (IGIV 10%) in subjects with primary immunodeficiency disorders.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patients with primary immunodeficiency disorders to identify patients with mutations of the genes for the following proteins: Jak3, STAT1, STAT4, interleukin-7, interleukin-7 receptor, interleukin-12 receptor subunits, and others. Patients will undergo screening history, physical examination, and clinical laboratory evaluation at referring institutions and tissue samples, or cell lines will be sent to the NIH. We will establish cell lines if necessary, prepare DNA and RNA for molecular genetic analysis and study cytokine signal transduction in patient cell lines.
This is an open-label extension (OLE) study to extend treatment to patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) disorders linked to phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta signaling who participated in a prior study of leniolisib, LE 7201. The primary objective is to assess long-term safety and tolerability of leniolisib. Secondary and exploratory objectives include various efficacy and immunophenotyping measures for leniolisib.
Investigators are trying to find better treatments for people with HIV-1. In this clinical study, investigators want to see how well a new treatment called ISL+ULO, taken once a week, works compared to an existing treatment called BIC/FTC/TAF, which is taken every day. Investigators will check how many people still have a high level of the virus in their blood after 24 weeks. The investigators also want to understand if the new treatment, MK-8591B, is safe and how well people can handle it.
Background: X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID) is a rare inherited disorder that affects the immune system. It is caused by a change in the IL2RG gene. Researchers are investigating a new type of gene therapy for people with XSCID. This technique, called base-edited stem cell transplants, involves collecting a person s own stem cells, editing the genes to repair IL2RG gene, and returning the edited cells to the person. Objective: To test base-edited stem cell transplants in people with XSCID. Eligibility: People aged 3 years and older with XSCID. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam. They may give blood, urine, and stool samples. They may have tests of their heart and lung function. They may have fluid and cells drawn from their bone marrow. Participants will undergo apheresis. Blood will be taken from the body through a needle inserted into 1 arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the stem cells. The remaining blood will be returned to the body through a different needle. The collected stem cells will undergo gene editing. Participants will be admitted to the hospital 1 week before treatment. They will receive a central line: A flexible tube will be inserted into a large vein. This tube will be used to administer drugs and draw blood during their stay. They will receive drugs to prepare their bodies for the treatment. The base-edited stem cells will be infused through the central line. Participants will remain in the hospital for at least 3 weeks while they recover. Follow-up visits will continue for 15 years.
This phase II trial tests how well the combination of epcoritamab and lenalidomide work in treating patients with immunodeficiency-related large B-cell lymphoma that does not respond to treatment (refractory) or that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Epcoritamab is an immunotherapy that engages T-cells in the immune system to help redirect their killing effects against lymphoma cells. Lenalidomide can modulate the immune system to enhance killing effects of lymphoma by the immune system as well. Giving patients a combination of epcoritamab and lenalidomide may work better in treating refractory or relapsed immunodeficiency-related large B-cell lymphoma.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of bepirovirsen compared to placebo in participants with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infection.
Moesin deficiency was initially described in 7 male participants aged 4 to 69 years and is characterized by lymphopenia of the 3 lineages and moderate neutropenia. Genetically, 6 out of 7 participants had the same missense mutation in the moesin gene located on the X chromosome. The 7th patient has a mutation leading to the premature introduction of a STOP codon into the protein.Clinically the 7 participants with X-linked moesin-associated immunodeficiency all presented with recurrent bacterial infections of the respiratory, gastrointestinal or urinary tracts, and some had severe varicella.Therapeutically, in the absence of a molecular diagnosis and due to his SCID-like phenotype, one patient was treated with geno-identical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation . The remaining are untreated or treated with immunoglobulin substitution and/or prophylactic antibiotics. Since this study, the moesin gene has been integrated into DNA chips used for the molecular diagnosis of immune deficiencies in several countries. Physicians in Canada, the United States, Japan, South Africa and Europe have contacted us with a total of 16 known participants to date. Because of their very low severe, uncontrolled CMV infection and the absence of treatment recommendations, two 2 American participants were treated with allogeneic transplantation with severe post-transplant complications (1), and one of the participants died as a result of the transplant. Management of XMAID participants therefore varies widely from country to country, depending on age at diagnosis and clinical picture. It ranges from no treatment treatment (associated with recurrent infections and skin manifestations), IgIv substitution and/or antibiotic prophylaxis antibiotic prophylaxis, with low toxicity and apparent efficacy, and allogeneic transplantation, with all the risks risks involved (graft-related toxicity, graft versus host, disease, rejection, risk of infection). The Investigators therefore feel it is important to review the diagnosis, clinical presentation and management of X-MAID participants. The study the investigator propose will enable to understand the presentation of X-MAID participants, establish guidelines and provide the best treatment for each patient according to his or her clinical picture
Autoimmune cytopenias resistant to treatment are among the most common clinical manifestations observed in patients with congenital alterations of the immune system, such as primary immunodeficiencies (PI). The exact contribution of immune system alterations to the pathogenesis of autoimmune cytopenias has not yet been fully elucidated. Moreover, conventionally employed therapeutic strategies often fail, leading to increased healthcare costs, high morbidity, and even mortality. Therefore, there is a need to establish clinical guidelines for diagnosis and to identify early biomarkers capable of identifying individuals responsive to therapy. Thus, a systematic approach to the study of such pathologies will allow for the identification of early biomarkers and facilitate the development of targeted therapeutic strategies
Persons with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have higher risk of developing fatty liver disease (NAFLD) than HIV-negative persons but the reasons for this discrepancy are not known. Changes in the intestinal microbiome may contribute to the development of NAFLD in persons with HIV (PWH) through impairment of barrier function of the intestinal wall and by producing metabolites that are harmful to the liver. This project will test the hypothesis that HIV-related NAFLD is associated with differences in the intestinal microbiome and that supplementation with probiotic and prebiotic fiber will lead to improvements in markers of NAFLD in PWH.
This study will test the effectiveness of a text message-based intervention on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing behaviors among adolescent (13-18 year old) sexual minority men and transgender and gender diverse teens (ASMM/TGD). To test the effectiveness on HIV testing behaviors we will randomize participants to the treatment or an attention matched information only control arm and asses our primary effectiveness outcome of objective HIV testing (e.g., photo of test results).
This is a 3-year study to test the efficacy of a text message-based intervention program. Dental patients at 4 community health centers (n= 266) will be randomized to receive either text messages (TMs) regarding HIV prevention or TMs regarding overall wellness. Prior to enrolling the 266 participants, the investigators will conduct a feasibility pilot (n=20) to test the TM delivery as well as all study procedures. For both the pilot and the randomized clinical trial (RCT), recruitment will be conducted at 4 Community Health Center dental clinics (Codman Square, East Boston (both East Boston and South End locations), Geiger Gibson, and Upham's Community Health Centers). Recruitment materials (flyers and permission to contact forms) may also be made available at other clinics within the health centers. The study will enroll English and Spanish-speaking patients who have at least one risk factor for HIV but are HIV-negative. Patients enrolled in the pilot will complete self-report surveys at baseline, 1 and 2 months. Participants enrolled in the RCT will complete self-report surveys baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months after baseline; receive and respond to TM assessments during the 6-month intervention.
The main aim of this study is to learn if TAK-881 is safe and well tolerated during long-term use in adults and children with PIDD who are eligible and completed study TAK-881-3001 (NCT05755035). The participants will receive the first dose of TAK-881 immunoglobulin (IgG) infusion at the same dosage as the last dose administered in study TAK-881-3001 (NCT05755035). After the first TAK-881 infusion in study TAK-881-3002, the dosing interval (can be adjusted by participant/caregiver) and/or the dose of TAK-881 can be adjusted by the study doctor to every 2, 3 or 4 weeks at scheduled site visits. Participants will visit the clinic every 12 weeks until the End of Study (EOS) visit.
Human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) is the virus that causes Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). HIV disease is considered to be a chronic disease requiring lifelong therapy. The purpose of this study is to assess change in disease activity, adverse events, tolerability, and how the drug moves through the body. Budigalimab and ABBV-382 are investigational drugs being developed for the treatment of HIV disease. In Part 1, participants are placed in 1 of 5 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment. There is a 1 in 7 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo (A placebo is not a drug and it is not expected to have any chemical effects on your body and it is not designed to treat any disease or illness). In Part 2, eligible participants will be placed in an open-label arm to receive Budigalimab. Approximately 160 adult participants living with HIV disease on stable antiretroviral therapy (ART) willing to undergo Analytical Treatment Interruption (ATI) will be enrolled at approximately 90 sites worldwide. In Part 1, participants will receive 4 doses of intravenous (IV) budigalimab or placebo combined with 3 doses of IV ABBV-382 or placebo for an 8 week dosing period. In Part 2, participants will receive 4 doses of open-label subcutaneous (SC) Budigalimab for a 6 week dosing period. Participants need to be stable on antiretroviral therapy to participate in the study. If participant qualifies to the study, on the day they receive the first injection, participants will be asked to stop antiretroviral medications (also referred to as analytical treatment interruption or ATI) for 112 weeks or until meeting specific criteria to restart antiretroviral medications. Participants will undergo a closely monitored ART interruption. Protocol-defined ART restart criteria includes participant's request. Participants will be followed for up to approximately 112 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. There will be an option for virtual or home health visits for some of the follow-up visits. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The HIV diagnosis rate among African-born Black women is the highest of all Black individuals living in the US. Correct and consistent use of condoms and use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) are two effective means of decreasing HIV risk among women, but they remain suboptimal among Black women. The specific aims of this study are: 1. To culturally adapt two widely utilized, evidence-based HIV prevention interventions originally designed for US born Black women (Sister-to-Sister (S2S) and Sisters Informing Sisters about Topics on AIDS (SISTA)) for use by African-born women 2. To conduct a randomized controlled comparative effectiveness trial (RCT) to determine the effectiveness of adapted versions of S2S versus SISTA on increasing condom use and PrEP uptake among African-born women. The adapted versions of these interventions will be given new names that resonate with the African culture. The adapted version of S2S intervention will be called "Dada Kwa Dada (DKD)" intervention while the adapted version of SISTA intervention will be called "DADA" intervention. "DADA" means "Sister" in Swahili and other languages in Eastern and Western Africa.
The study aims at evaluating the efficacy of VH3810109, dosed in accordance with the dosing schedule as either intravenous (IV) infusion or subcutaneous (SC) infusion with recombinant hyaluronidase (rHuPH20), in combination with cabotegravir (CAB) intramuscular (IM) dosed in accordance with the dosing schedule in virologically suppressed, Antiretroviral therapy (ART)-experienced adult participants living with HIV. VH3810109 plus rHuPH20 plus Cabotegravir arm of the study has been discontinued based on preliminary results.
This is a multicentre study carried out in participants living with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) who have not previously been treated with any antiretroviral therapies. The study will investigate two 2-drug regimens for the treatment of HIV-1: a fixed-dose combination oral tablet of dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) and cabotegravir plus rilpivirine long-acting agents (CAB + RPV LA). All participants will initially receive DTG/3TC once daily, and once virologic suppression is attained (plasma HIV-1 \<50 c/mL), participants will be offered a choice to switch to CAB + RPV LA or to continue taking oral DTG/3TC. This study will provide important data on the efficacy, safety, implementation effectiveness, and patient-reported outcomes of these two regimens in a study where participants have the option to choose between them based on individual preference. The aim of the study is to evaluate the antiviral effectiveness at 11 months after switching to CAB+RPV LA following initial virologic suppression on DTG/3TC and to provide data on how long it takes participants to suppress their viral load on DTG/3TC.
The study aims at evaluating the maintenance of virologic suppression of dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) fixed dose combination (FDC) at Week 48 post-switch from bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) in participants living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) who are of at least 50 years of age and above.
This sub-study will assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, virologic efficacy and health outcomes of CAB (GSK1265744) and RPV long acting (LA) in HIV-infected adult participants currently enrolled in the Antiretroviral Therapy as Long Acting Suppression every 2 Months (ATLAS2M \[A2M\]) study (NCT03299049).
This study will assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability, maintenance of virological suppression and patient reported outcomes for participants receiving CAB and RPV LA injections following SC administration in the anterior abdominal wall SC tissue compared with IM administration in the gluteus medius muscle in adult participants living with HIV-1 infection in the FLAIR study (NCT02938520).
The primary objective of this study is to identify and characterize frailty and pre-frailty in persons age 50 and older living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) followed by the Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Infectious Diseases Specialty Clinics (IDSC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DOR/ISL in adult participants with HIV-1 who had been previously treated with DOR/ISL in earlier clinical studies. There are no formal hypotheses to be tested in this study.
The main aim of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of subcutaneous (SC) administration of TAK-881 with HYQVIA in participants with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). The participants who are already receiving intravenous immunoglobulin G (IGIV)/conventional subcutaneous intravenous immunoglobulin G (cIGSC) will be treated with HYQVIA or TAK-881 with the same dose and dosing interval of immunoglobulin for up to 24 weeks. Participants will need to visit the clinic every 3 or 4 weeks during the duration of the study.
