664 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Part One of this study will determine the feasibility of creating Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) product prospectively from high-risk pediatric solid tumors. Part Two of this study will determine the safety of TIL therapy with lymphodepleting chemotherapy and post-TIL Interleukin-2 in high-risk pediatric solid tumors
The primary objective of the study is to retrospectively investigate changes in lymphocyte counts and lymphocyte subtypes, with a focus on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, in participants on Tecfidera therapy for at least 6 months. The secondary objective is to investigate changes in lymphocyte subtypes other than CD4+ and CD8+ T cells.
RATIONALE: Giving autologous lymphocytes that have been treated in the laboratory with antibodies may stimulate the immune system to kill tumor cells. Aldesleukin may stimulate the lymphocytes to kill tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Giving laboratory-treated autologous lymphocytes together with aldesleukin and GM-CSF may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of laboratory-treated autologous lymphocytes when given together with aldesleukin and GM-CSF in treating patients with recurrent, refractory, or metastatic advanced solid tumors.
Objectives: 1. Determine the toxicity of infusions of allogeneic donor lymphocytes activated by acute leukemia derived dendritic cells (DC/ADL) in relapsed patients after allo-stem cell transplants. 2. Quantitate the alloreactivity of DC/ADL and circulating immune effector cells in patients after infusion. 3. Assess efficacy of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in Blastic Crisis (CML-BC) derived dendritic cells and activated lymphocytes in promoting and sustaining remission in patients with relapse after allo-BMT or stem cell transplant.
To determine the safety and efficacy of zidovudine (AZT) treatment combined with syngeneic or HLA identical allogeneic lymphocyte transfer in the presence of interleukin 2 (IL-2) as a treatment for AIDS. Patients with documented HIV viremia will be evaluated. Effects on virus replication, immune function, and clinical condition will be monitored with periodic virus cultures, estimates of lymphocyte type and numbers, cell surface markers, in vitro lymphocyte responses and frequent clinical evaluations.
One of the major interests of this laboratory is the characterization of the cellular subpopulations involved in the triggering and immunoregulation of B lymphocytes to produce antibodies. We are assessing the responses of individuals to produce antibodies against newly encountered antigens such as keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) (approved project number 77-I-0130) and propose to assess the amnestic responses to the previously encountered antigen, tetanus toxoid. The purpose of this protocol is to add this recall antigen to our repertoire of antigens used to evaluate the immune response in man. Booster immunization with tetanus/diphtheria toxoid has now been used for several years by a number of clinical immunology laboratories throughout the country to assess B cell related immunologic profiles in patients and control normal subjects. We have recently developed a sensitive ELISA assay for IgM and IgG in vitro specific antibody responses against tetanus toxoid. This will allow us to carefully and precisely monitor the evolution and immunoregulation of the human B cell responses to this recall antigen. This is of particular importance and relevance to us in our ongoing studies of a number of diseases characterized by abnormalities of immunologic reactivity, including those treated with various regimens of immunosuppressive agents.
This is a protocol for expanded access use of nogapendekin-alfa inbakicept (NAI) in participants with lymphopenia induced by chemotherapy, radiation, and/or checkpoint Inhibitors who may benefit from its use, and who are ineligible to participate in a clinical trial using NAI. The primary objective of this protocol is to evaluate the reversal and maintenance of absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) with NAI.
The primary purpose of this phase I/II study is to evaluate whether partially matched, ≥2/6 HLA-matched, viral specific T cells have efficacy against adenovirus, CMV, and EBV, in subjects who have previously received any type of allogeneic HCT or solid organ transplant (SOT), or have compromised immunity. Reconstitution of anti-viral immunity by donor-derived cytotoxic T lymphocytes has shown promise in preventing and treating infections with adenovirus, CMV, and EBV. However, the weeks taken to prepare patient-specific products, and cost associated with products that may not be used limits their value. In this trial, we will evaluate viral specific T cells generated by gamma capture technology. Eligible patients will include HCT and/or SOT recipients, and/or patients with compromised immunity who have adenovirus, CMV, or EBV infection or refractory viremia that is persistent despite standard therapy. Infusion of the cellular product will be assessed for safety and efficacy.
Phase 1 is to find the recommended dose of KSQ-004EX to give to participants with advanced solid tumors. Phase 2 is to learn if KSQ-004EX at the recommended dose found in Phase1 can help to control advanced solid tumors. The safety and effects of KSQ-004EX will also be studied in both phases.
This study is planned to test the safety and tolerability of the TIL regimen. The study will also test how well TIL fights cancer. The study will enroll children, teenagers, and young adults with solid tumors that have returned or are not responding to treatment for whom no effective standard-of-care treatment options exist. Study details include: * The study will last up to 2 years after the TIL infusion (Day 0) for each person. * The treatment will last up to 10 days for each person. * Study visits will be every 2 weeks until Day 42, every 6 weeks until Month 6, and every 3 months until Year 2.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the lifileucel regimen in participants with previously treated endometrial cancer.
To learn if KSQ-001EX is safe to give to participants with advanced forms of solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to see the effects of an investigational combination treatment of venetoclax, azacitidine, and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in patients with high-risk AML receiving allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, and to assess if the combination treatment is well tolerated and prevents disease relapse after transplant.
There is a pressing need to measure patient-reported symptoms in patients of all ages diagnosed with nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL). This study aims to measure longitudinal symptom burden and treatment tolerability utilizing validated patient-reported outcomes (PROs) instruments. Primary Objective: * To develop the data collection infrastructure required to prospectively collect longitudinal electronic patient-reported outcomes (PROs) survey instruments in adult and pediatric patients diagnosed with NLPHL. Secondary Objective: * To examine differences in baseline and longitudinal changes in PROs based on disease characteristics, disease status, and treatment strategies among adult and pediatric patients diagnosed with NLPHL.
The subject of this study is the adoptive transfer of selected autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) after in vitro expansion for the treatment of solid tumor malignancies. The TIL selection process is based on evidence showing that CD8+ TIL which co-express both CD39 and CD103 harbor the bulk of tumor-reactivity and that the remaining CD8 TIL is mainly composed of non-tumor reactive bystander cells. All of the expanded TIL that are produced (1-40 billion are expected) will be delivered in the form of a cell suspension to the participants by intravenous infusion. It is proposed that these selected TIL will produce a more potent and efficacious treatment of late-stage cancer.
This phase II trial compares mosunetuzumab to the usual treatment (rituximab) for improving survival in patients with nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL). Rituximab and mosunetuzumab are monoclonal antibodies. They bind to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Mosunetuzumab may be more effective at extending survival in patients with NLPHL than the usual approach with rituximab.
To learn about the effects of the investigational drug NKTR-255 in combination with the standard drug durvalumab on locally advanced NSCLC when given after CRT.
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of intracerebroventricularly (ICV) administered CD19-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in treating patients with primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. CAR T cell therapy is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein, CD19, on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. ICV is an injection technique that delivers the CD19-CAR T cells directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (which flows in and around the hollow spaces of the brain and spinal cord, and the thin layers of tissue that cover and protect the brain and spinal cord) in the brain, through a surgically placed catheter. Giving CD19-CAR T cells ICV may be more effective at treating patients with primary CNS lymphoma than giving them via other methods.
The goal of this proposal is to determine how cannabinoid use affects the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) of melanoma by correlating TILs with reported cannabinoid use and circulating plasma cannabinoids. The central hypothesis is that cannabinoid use decreases TILs in melanoma in a dose-dependent fashion. This is important because cannabinoid-driven TME changes in melanoma may alter patient outcomes mediated by TILs and response to standard of care ICI treatments.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the recommended dose of OBX-115 in combination with acetazolamide that can be given to patients with metastatic melanoma previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The safety and tolerability of the study drug combination will also be studied.
This pilot study is being conducted to treat patients who have a certain type of malignancy (lymphoid or myeloid) with immune effector cells after a T-cell depleted allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (TCD HSCT). This study is designed to see whether an investigational cellular product of immune cells obtained from a donor's cells that have been treated so that the type of cells that can lead to graft vs host disease have been removed can be safely administered. These cell products are administered following the initial stem cell transplant to assess the effect and improvement on minimal residual disease status, infectious complication, progression-free and overall survival.
Background: People with blood cancers often receive blood or bone marrow transplants. But even with these treatments, the risk of relapse is high. Researchers want to see if giving the transplant recipient an infusion of lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) from their transplant donor early after the transplant can reduce that risk. Objective: To learn if giving donor lymphocytes early after a transplant will help reduce the risk of relapse for people with certain blood cancers. Eligibility: Adults aged 18-65 with high-risk leukemia, lymphoma, myelodysplastic syndrome, or multiple myeloma that does not respond well to standard treatments and/or has a high risk of relapse. Healthy potential bone marrow and lymphocyte donor relatives aged 12 and older are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Blood and urine tests Spinal tap Eye exam Dental exam Heart and lung tests Imaging scans. A radioactive substance may be injected in their arm if a PET scan is needed. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy Some screening tests will be repeated during the study. Participants will stay at the NIH hospital for about 4 weeks. They will receive a central venous catheter. They will get chemotherapy and other drugs starting 6 days before transplant. Then they will have their transplant. They will receive donor white blood cells 7 days later. They will give blood, bone marrow, urine, and stool samples for research. They must stay near NIH for at least 100 days after transplant. Participants will have periodic follow-up visits for 5 years. Healthy donors will have 2-3 visits. They will give blood, bone marrow, white blood cells, and stool samples for research. Participation will last for 5 years....
This is a phase I dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety of partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched multi tumor-associated antigen-specific T cell (TAA-T) therapy for patients with high-risk solid tumors due to the presence of refractory, relapsed and/or minimal residual detectable disease following conventional therapy. Conventional therapy may include chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, autologous stem cell transplant, or targeted therapy.
This phase I/II trial tests the safety and side effects of LN-144 (Lifileucel) and pembrolizumab in treating patients with stage IIIB-D or stage IV melanoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes. Biological therapies, such as LN-144 (Lifileucel), use substances made from living organisms that may attack specific tumor cells and stop them from growing or kill them. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving lifileucel and pembrolizumab may make the tumor smaller.
Investigators have previously used this sort of therapy to treat Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin lymphoma that is associated with the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis ("mono" or the "kissing disease"), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV is found in cancer cells of up to half of all patients with Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This suggests that it may play a role in causing lymphoma. The cancer cells infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape being killed. Investigators previously tested special white blood cells (cells that help the body fight disease and infection), called T cells. The T cells were trained to kill EBV-infected cells and were tested to see whether treatment with these cells could affect these tumors. In many patients investigators found that giving these trained T cells caused a complete or partial response. However, many patients do not have EBV found in their lymphoma cells. Therefore, investigators now want to test whether special T lymphocytes directed against other types of proteins that show on the tumor cell surface can result in similar promising results. The proteins that will be targeted in this study are called tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) - these are cell proteins that are specific to the cancer cell, so they either do not show or show up in low quantities on normal human cells. In this stage of the study, investigators will target five TAAs which commonly show on lymphoma cells , called NY-ESO-1, MAGEA4, PRAME, Survivin and SSX. Investigators will do this by using special types of T cells called cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) generated in the lab. These TM-specific T cells are an investigational product not yet approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The purpose of this stage of the study is to find out if TM-specific cytotoxic T cells are safe in children. The investigators want to learn what the side-effects are, and to see whether this therapy might help treat patients who are considered high risk for relapse of Hodgkin disease or non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
This study involved patients that have a cancer called diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), NK and T cell lymphomas (NK/TL) or classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) (hereafter these 3 diseases will be referred to as lymphoma). Patients lymphoma has come back or not gone away after treatment. Because there is no standard treatment for the patients cancer at this time or because the currently used treatments do not work fully in all cases, the patients are being asked to volunteer in this research study. In this study the investigators want to test a type of T cell made from a normal donor. The T cells the investigators will use are called Epstein Barr virus (EBV) specific T cells (EBVSTs) and are cells that the investigators have trained in the laboratory to recognize a EBV which is the virus that causes mono or kissing disease. Some patients with lymphoma have EBV in their cancer cells. Researchers have given T cell lines from normal donor EBVSTs to lymphoma patients who have EBV in their lymphoma cells and have seen responses in about half the patients. The cells have have been generated and are frozen in a bank. The cells are called "allogeneic" (meaning the donor is not related to the patient). CD30.CAR in EBV-specific T cells (called allogeneic CD30.CAR-EBVST) from the blood of healthy donors. The investigators are giving the cells to patients with lymphoma cells that express CD30. If the lymphoma cells also express EBV there may be some benefit from targeting both proteins. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest safe dose of allogeneic CD30.CAR-EBVST cells given following chemotherapy and used to treat lymphoma. The investigators will learn the side effects of CD30.CAR-EBVST cells in patients and see whether this therapy may help lymphoma patients.
This is a plant-based medication used to increase the amount, protect, and reduce HIV's impact on T and B lymphocytes.
This open-label, single-arm, phase I/II clinical trial will assess the safety and efficacy of related donor adenovirus-specific T lymphocytes isolated from whole blood or leukapheresis products. The adenovirus-specific T lymphocytes will be generated automatically by the CliniMACS Prodigy using the CliniMACS Cytokine Capture System (IFN-γ) after incubation with MACS GMP PepTivator Peptide Pools of Hexon 5 for enrichment.
This is a Phase I dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety of norovirus -specific T-cell (NST) therapy for chronic norovirus infection in participants following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or with primary immunodeficiency disorders (PID) who have not undergone HSCT.
This study is for patients that have a type of lymph gland disease called Hodgkin or non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or T/NK-lymphoproliferative disease which has come back or has not gone away after treatment, including the best treatment the investigators know for these diseases. Some patients with Lymphoma or T/NK-lymphoproliferative disease show signs of virus that is sometimes called Epstein Barr virus (EBV) that causes mononucleosis or glandular fever ("mono") before or at the time of their diagnosis. EBV is found in the cancer cells of up to half the patients with Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, suggesting that plays a role in causing Lymphoma. The cancer cells (in lymphoma) and some immune system cells infected by EBV are able to hide from the body's immune system and escape destruction. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. T cells, that have been trained to kill EBV infected cells can survive in the blood and affect the tumor. The investigators have treated over 80 people on studies using T cells to target these diseases. About half of those patients who had disease at the time they got the cells had responses including some patients with complete responses. The investigators think that if T cells are able to last longer in the body, they may have a better chance of killing EBV and EBV infected tumor cells. Therefore, in this study the investigators will add a new gene to the EBV T cells that can cause the cells to live longer called C7R. The investigators know that T cells need substances called cytokines to survive and the cells may not get enough cytokines after infusion into the body. The investigators have added the gene C7R that gives the cells a constant supply of cytokine and helps them to survive for a longer period of time. The purpose of this study is to find the largest safe dose of C7R-EBV T cells, and additionally to evaluate how long they can be detected in the blood and what affect they have on cancer.
