Filter by:Critical ill COVID-19 patients often develop respiratory, hemodynamic and neuropsychiatric complications. An imbalance of sympatho-parasympathetic nervous system is discussed as one of the reasons. The nervus vagus is essential for controlling the sympatho-parasympathetic nervous system and the inflammatory processes. Aim of this study is to evaluate whether Nervus vagus stimulation decreases the rate of complications (e.g. need of mechanical ventilation, hospital stay, mortality) in critical ill patients.
This study will evaluate the use of siltuximab to decrease the severity of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurological syndrome (ICANS) in patients who will receive chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for the treatment of hematological malignancies.
Phase II, randomized controlled, unblinded clinical trial. Will evaluate whether the administration of oral cyclosporine started on day 0 of transplantation is effective in reducing the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in patients who receive an outpatient haploidentical transplant.
The cytokine storms mediated by over production of proinflammatory cytokines have been observed in a large population of critically ill patients infected with COVID-19. Patients diagnosed with cytokine storms progress to cardiovascular collapse, multiple organ dysfunction and death rapidly. Therefore, early identification, treatment and prevention of the cytokine storms are of crucial importance for the patients. Immuomedulator such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) antagonist, emerged as an alternative treatment for COVID-19 patients with a risk of cytokine storms recently. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-IL6 alone vs anti-IL6 corticosteroid combination in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia
This phase II trial studies how well anakinra works in decreasing the occurrence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and damage to the nerves (neurotoxicity) in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma who are receiving CD-19 targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy. CAR-T cell therapy may be complicated by two potentially life-threatening side effects: CRS and neurotoxicity. Anakinra is a drug typically used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, but may also help in preventing CAR-T cell-related cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity.
Some patients infected with the COVID-19 can develop uncontrolled immune response, leading to potentially life-threatening damage to lung tissue. Tocilizumab was first approved by the U.S. FDA in 2010 for rheumatoid arthritis and might now be used to treat serious COVID-19 patients with lung damage, according to China's National Health Commission updated its treatment guidelines in 7th version.Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) was recommended by China's National Health Commission treatment guidelines in 1st-7th version to control sever COVID-19 patients.
The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of metoprolol, a beta-1 adrenergic receptor blocker, in the treatment of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) caused by chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cell infusions, its effects on the serum levels of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and other cytokines.
Patients with severe CAR-T cell associated cytokine release syndrome (CRS) (defined as vasopressor dependent) will be treated with standard of care (SOC) + cytokine adsorption (6hourly for 24 hrs). Primary endpoint is the change in plasma IL-6 between 0 and 24 hrs.
Kidney and liver transplantation are the treatment of choice and are often the last therapeutic option offered to patients with chronic renal and liver failure. More than 70% of kidneys and liver available for transplantation are obtained from donors following neurological death. Unfortunately, compared to living donation, transplant function, graft survival, and recipient survival are consistently inferior with kidneys and liver from neurologically deceased donors. This difference lies with the exacerbated pro-inflammatory state characteristic of deceased donors. Indeed, when neurologic death occurs, the immune system releases substances in the blood that could harm organs and particularly the liver and the kidneys. We believe that achieving a better understanding of the inflammatory processes of organ donors could be greatly informative to design future randomized controlled trial assessing the effect of personalized immunosuppressive therapy on organ donors to ultimately improve the care provided to donors so as to increase the number of organs available for transplantation and enhancing the survival of received grafts
