Filter by:This is a multi-center study to evaluate the clinical performance of ClearLLab LS screening panel with specimens from subjects for the diagnosis of hematologic malignancies.
In recent years, the application of increasingly advanced methods of ex-vivo cell culture and cell engineering has made it possible to develop new cellular therapeutic platforms including the "CAR (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) - T cell therapy". CAR-T cell therapy is a therapy that uses T lymphocytes engineered to express a chimeric receptor directed against a specific antigen, theoretically applicable to the treatment of all neoplasms but currently more widely used in the treatment of haematological malignancies. One of the most innovative aspects introduced with CAR-T cell therapy is that of living-drug, cells that act as a drug as well as a means to build specific immunity against the neoplasm. The advantages of this therapy are therefore represented by the possibility of refueling the patient's immunity, deficient in the control of the neoplastic disease, with lymphocytes capable of expressing an antineoplastic activity with mechanisms not subject to restriction of HLA-mediated antigen recognition. However, the use of CAR-T therapies is not free from potentially serious and sometimes lethal adverse events; in the toxicity profile the following are recognizable as peculiar: - cytokine release syndrome (CRS) - B-cell aplasia (hypogammaglobulinemia) - neurological adverse reactions - haematological toxicity - infections. Therefore, considering that on the one hand adverse events are not negligible and on the other hand that a percentage > 50% of patients lose the response obtained, it is necessary to improve the therapeutic profile of CAR-T cell therapy by increasing its efficacy and reducing its toxicity . Both of these strategies are linked to the understanding of the resistance mechanisms of neoplastic cells, as well as to the biology of CAR-T cells and of all the cellular (microenvironment) and non-cellular systems with which they interact.
Many cancer patients are highly susceptible to infection and respond poorly to vaccination. This observational study will determine molecular and cellular features of immunity to viral pathogens in participants with cancer and compare them to healthy controls. The aim is to identify how antiviral immunity in participants with cancer differs from that in healthy participants to understand why cancer patients are more susceptible to infections. In this context, the investigators will also evaluate immunity to medically indicated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and seasonal influenza vaccine received by study participants during standard care (vaccines are not part of the study).
This study investigates whether the 12-week home-based exercise training with remote guidance and telemonitoring compared to regular center-based training leads to better long-term cardiorespiratory fitness and physical activity levels in post-treatment patients with lymphoma.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and types of oral complications found in patients diagnosed with haematological malignancy
This is a phase II, open-label, prospective study of T cell receptor alpha/beta depletion (α/β TCD) peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation for children and adults with hematological malignancies
This is a multicenter, open-label, non-interventional controlled study to identify and characterize the epigenetic signatures for a set of hematological malignancies: Multiple myeloma (MM), pre-MM conditions [smoldering MM (SMM) and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS)], Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), non-Hodgkin aggressive lymphoma NHL [diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and subjects at risk and control subjects with no malignant disease.
A Phase I, Double blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Safety and Tolerability of Orally Administered 'CG-745' Capsule in Healthy Male Volunteers
The purpose of this study is to assess whether a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for fatigue intervention is acceptable, feasible, and effective at managing fatigue and improving quality of life for patients following hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT).
The goal of this research study is to determine whether a self-administered, psychosocial mobile application (CARE app) is effective at improving the quality of life and experience of caregivers of patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT).
