27 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is a Open Label Prospective Dose-Ranging Escalation and Expansion Trial to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Dosing, and Efficacy of RLS-0071 for the secondary treatment of acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) in hospitalized patients who are steroid-refractory.
This is an open-label, randomized, Phase 3, multicenter trial, which has been designed to compare the efficacy and safety of T-Guard to ruxolitinib in patients with Grade III or IV Steroid-Refractory acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease (SR-aGVHD). The primary hypothesis is that T-Guard treatment will improve the Day 28 complete response (CR) rate in patients with Grades III and IV SR-aGVHD compared to ruxolitinib.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects of PLX51107 in treating steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease (GVHD). PLX51107 is a novel, potent non-benzodiazepine structured small molecule BET inhibitor with a unique binding mode selective for BRD4 inhibition and a more tolerable side effect profile. PLX51107 may work better in treating steroid-refractory acute GVHD.
This early phase I trial is to find out the effect of adding cord blood tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (cb-MSCs) to ruxolitinib in treating patients with acute graft versus host disease that does not respond to steroid therapy (steroid-refractory). Ruxolitinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. cb-MSCs are a type of tissue helper cell that can be removed from donated umbilical cord blood tissue and grown into many different cell types that can be used to treat cancer and other disease, such as graft versus host disease. This trial aims to learn if adding cb-MSCs to ruxolitinib may help control steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease.
The Balance study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of an investigational drug called ALPN-101 in adults with steroid-resistant or steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD).
The study is designed as an open-label, single arm Phase III, multicenter trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of T-Guard treatment in patients with Steroid-Refractory acute Graft versus Host Disease (SR-aGVHD).
The study's primary objective is designed to assess the safety and tolerability, and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of both itacitinib and tocilizumab when given in combination to patients with steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease (SR-aGVHD). The study's secondary objectives are to: * Estimate the day 28 response rate (ORR) \[complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), and partial response (PR)\] of the combination of itacitinib and tocilizumab for the treatment of SR-aGVHD * Estimate the time to response and duration of response * Estimate the incidence of primary disease relapse while on study treatment * Estimate the incidence of infections including viral reactivation, bacterial infections and fungal infections while on study treatment * Estimate the progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), non-relapse mortality, GVHD-related mortality of study subjects * Estimate the proportion of patients who successfully discontinue steroids by 6 months and 12 months after therapy initiation
Bone marrow transplant (BMT) patients can develop graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious and potentially fatal complication. The researchers have developed a blood test to identify patients most at risk for developing severe GVHD. Patients who consent to this study will have their blood tested up to two times after BMT to determine if they are at high risk for severe GVHD. The tests will be performed one week and two weeks after BMT. Patients who are high risk will be treated with a drug called alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) to see if it prevents the development of severe GVHD. Patients will receive 16 doses of AAT through a catheter placed into a blood vessel over eight weeks. AAT will be given either in the hospital or the outpatient clinic two times per week. Patients will be followed for the development of severe GVHD for up to four months from the BMT and will continue to be followed at routine clinic visits for up to one year after BMT.
A Phase I study to establish the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and efficacy profiles of Neihulizumab in patients with steroid-refractory or treatment refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR/TR-aGVHD)
The purpose of this study is to assess the initial activity, tolerability, safety and to identify a recommended dose and regimen of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) administered for treatment of steroid-refractory acute intestinal GvHD in participants who have undergone allo-HSCT.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of ruxolitinib in combination with corticosteroids in subjects with Grades II to IV steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter study of the efficacy of UVADEX® (methoxsalen) Sterile Solution in conjunction with THERAKOS® CELLEX® Photopheresis Systems (ECP) in pediatric participants with steroid-refractory aGvHD. The study is composed of Screening, Treatment, and Follow-up Periods.
This study is to establish the safety, determine if there is an improvement in steroid refractory acute graft-vs-host disease (aGvHD) compared to historical cohorts, and determine the changes of aGvHD-associated T-cell clones in patients with steroid-refractory aGVHD following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation administered AbGn-168H once weekly for 4 weeks.
Background: - Some allogeneic stem cell transplant recipients get acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). They always get steroids as the first treatment, but this may not work. Those people where steroids are not enough may benefit from a treatment called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP). ECP exposes white blood cells to ultraviolet light outside the body. Researchers want to study how certain markers in the blood predict the severity and outcome of acute GVHD and how ECP treatments work for people with acute GVHD. They will also study how these markers in the blood may help predict who should get ECP and its effects on the immune system. Objectives: - To learn more about treatments for acute GVHD after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Eligibility: - Adults with acute GVHD enrolled in an National Cancer Institute (NCI) allogeneic transplantation protocol. Design: * Transplant physicians will confirm participant eligibility. * Participants will receive treatment with steroids for their acute GVHD as prescribed by their transplant physician. This will continue while they are enrolled on this study. * If steroids work in treating their acute GVHD, then every 28 days for 6 months, participants will have: * a physical exam. * blood tests. * If steroids do not work, participants will get additional treatments as prescribed by their transplant physician who may choose to use ECP as a part of this additional treatment. For ECP, blood is removed through an intravenous (IV) catheter. A machine separates the white blood cells from the other blood parts. Those cells are treated with methoxsalen and exposed to ultraviolet light. Then they are returned to the participant through their IV. * Participants who get ECP will over at least 6 months have: * veins researched. They may have a catheter placed in a larger vein in the chest or groin. * multiple blood tests. * multiple pregnancy tests (if needed). * multiple ECP procedures. * At the end of ECP treatment and 6 months after ECP, participants will have additional physical exams and blood tests.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safe and tolerable, biologically active, and potentially effective doses(s) of ALD518 in subjects with acute GVHD, who have failed to respond to glucocorticosteroids, for further investigation in Part B.
Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) is a serious medical condition that is a common development after Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT). Acute GVHD happens when the donor cells attack and damage your tissues and organs after transplant. Acute GVHD often causes: Skin rashes, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea (may have blood), liver damage that can cause inflammation in the liver or jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), damage to other organs Steroids are the first line of treatment for acute GVHD. About a quarter of the patients that develop acute GVHD may not respond to steroid and have steroid refractory GVHD (SR-aGVHD). Patients with SR-aGVHD may need other medications. SR-aGVHD, is a potentially life threatening condition. There is no standard treatment and it may not respond to treatment. The goals of this study are to find out if Infliximab and basiliximab can treat SR-aGVHD. Participants in this study will receive combination therapy (2 drugs: infliximab and basiliximab) once a week for four weeks.
This trial designed to evaluate the toxicity and efficacy of tocilizumab in the treatment of steroid refractory acute graft versus host disease (GVHD).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and gather additional safety information for Prochymal® in participants who have failed to respond to steroid treatment of Grades B-D acute GVHD.
This study will evaluate the response rate to treatment with pentostatin in steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease.
This clinical trial will study the safety and efficacy of using the drug Zemaira, an Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (AAT) medication (also known as an Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor \[Human\]) for the treatment of steroid refractory GVHD. For bone marrow transplant patients, the most common, serious complication is Graft vs Host Disease (GVHD), which at its most severe is a life-threatening, complication and a significant cause of treatment related death, following stem cell transplantation. GVHD is a major obstacle to the overall success of transplant treatment, a strategy that would otherwise provide the possibility of a cure for patients with blood cancers or severe blood disorders. GVHD primarily affects the skin, gut, and liver of the recipient, and involves the interaction of the recipient's (the host's) cells and tissues with the donor's immune system cells that see the host tissues as foreign, and attack the host's cells resulting in tissue and organ damage. The severity of acute GvHD ranges from mild to severe, and for patients who don't respond to steroid therapy, the complication is nearly always fatal, either from organ damage or opportunistic infection as a consequence of high dose, steroid treatments. There is currently no known effective therapy for patients with acute graft vs host disease that's refractory (nonresponsive) to steroid therapy. As stated earlier,the overwhelming majority of these patients may ultimately die from infection. The incidence of acute GvHD that requires intervention, is higher for unrelated donor transplants, the most common treatment option available, and therefore, these patients are at higher risk for treatment related complications from GVHD. Approximately 20,000 unrelated donor transplants are performed each year. The magnitude of this problem then is significant for patients who otherwise might be cured of their blood cancer or disease.
The purpose of this study is to see whether serious graft versus host disease which is not well controlled with steroid treatment can be controlled with therapy with both daclizumab and infliximab. We hypothesize that a combination of daclizumab and infliximab will more effectively treat graft versus host disease than therapy with a single drug. The study also looks at whether chronic graft versus host disease develops, and survival at 6 and 9 months post-treatment.
Phase II efficacy evaluation, phase I/II efficacy and toxicity trial of recombinant human keratinocyte growth factor for the treatment of steroid refractory gastrointestinal graft versus host disease.
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of two different doses of umbilical cord derived, ex-vivo cultured and expanded Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCTC-0010) in the treatment of acute Graft versus Host Disease (aGVHD). The first 5 participants enrolled in the study will receive a lower dose of MSCTC-0010. If none of the first 5 participants have treatment-related serious adverse events (TRSAEs) for 42 days, then the next 5 participants will receive a slightly higher dose of MSCTC-0010.
To determine a safe and effective dose of pentostatin in steroid-refractory aGvHD and to identify the minimal effective dose of pentostatin defined as the lowest dose that produces a response in 20% or more of patients while producing treatment failure (defines as death, grade 3/4 toxicity, or progressive disease) in 40% or less of patients.
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of an investigational drug. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. It also means that the FDA has not approved brentuximab vedotin for the treatment of GVHD. Currently, corticosteroids are the standard/first line of treatment for people with GVHD. However, some patients do not achieve a good response with steroids and other experience flare-ups while tapering steroid treatment. Corticosteroid treatment has also led to a weakening of the immune system. For this reason, there have been increased attempts by researchers to find other options for the treatment of Graft vs. Host Disease. Brentuximab vedotin is a drug that is FDA approved for the treatment of certain types of cancers, like Hodgkin's lymphoma. Recent research studies have found increased levels of protein called CD30 in people with acute GVHD. Brentuximab vedotin is designed to target CD30. Researchers have never tried to target the CD30 molecule for the treatment of GVHD, but results from other research studies show that it could help slow the growth of your disease. In this research study, we are trying to determine the safest dose of brentuximab vedotin that can be given to patients with GVHD.
The aim of this trial is to assess safety and efficacy of apraglutide in subjects with steroid refractory gastrointestinal acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD).
To provide ruxolitinib through an expanded access program for the treatment of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in United States to patients who are ineligible or unable to participate in any actively enrolling Incyte-sponsored clinical studies for ruxolitinib in the treatment of GVHD.
