Filter by:CAR-T cells (Chimeric Antigen Receptor) are a new immunotherapy, based on the genetic modification of autologous T lymphocytes. CAR-T cell therapy is not devoid of complications. Among the most frequent complications are the risk of infection, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity. Nevertheless, some authors have reported serious acute cardiac events in a limited number of patients, often contemporaneous with CRS or sepsis, questioning the imputability of CAR-T cells in this heart disease. This study aims to estimate the incidence of a possible early cardiotoxicity associated with CAR-T cells. The main endpoint will be the change in cardiac function (LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction) assessed by ultrasound between the pre CAR-T assessment and the early post CAR-T ultrasound (D3-D5).
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of genetically engineered cells called EGFRt/19-28z/IL-12 CAR T cells, and to see how they work in treating patients with hematologic malignancies that makes a protein called CD19 (CD19-positive) that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). Chimeric Antigen Receptor (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 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. To improve the effectiveness of the modified T cells and to help the immune system fight cancer cells better, the modified T cells given in this study will include a gene that makes the T cells produce a cytokine (a molecule involved in signaling within the immune system) called interleukin-12 (IL-12). The researchers think that IL-12 may improve the effectiveness of the modified T cells, and it may also strengthen the immune system to fight cancer. Giving EGFRt/19-28z/IL-12 CAR T cells may be safe and tolerable in treating patients with relapsed or refractory CD19+ hematologic malignancies.
The ACC Preclinical Research Platform for Precision Oncology is a retrospective and prospective observational study focused on the implementation and validation of the application of PDCM (Patient Derived Cancer Models) generated from tissues or cells of patients with neoplastic disease, as a tool to improve molecular and biological knowledge of tumours and to test the efficacy and sensitivity of pharmacological treatments.
Systemic mastocytosis with an associated hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN) is a challenging disease to treat. Targeted KIT inhibitors have been approved for this indication based on their ability to control the mastocytosis portion of the disease, but patients frequently experience progression of the concomitant myeloid malignancy (i.e. the AHN). Using a combination approach to treat both aspects of the disease has the potential to provide enhanced disease control; however, overlapping toxicity is a concern. In this study, investigators aim to study the safety and tolerability of combined avapritinib and decitabine for the treatment of SM-AHN.
The study participant has one of the following blood cancers: acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)/myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL, T-ALL) or Lymphoma. Your cancer has been difficult to treat (refractory) or has come back after treatment (relapse). Primary Objective To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose of intravenous infusions of escalating doses of CD70-CAR T cells in patients (≤21 years) with recurrent/refractory CD70+ hematological malignancies after lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Secondary Objectives To evaluate the antileukemic activity of CD70-CAR T cells. We will determine the anti- leukemic activity of the CD70-CAR T cells in the bone marrow and in the treatment of extramedullary disease.
This is an open-label study of the safety, biodynamics, and anti-cancer activity of SENTI-202 (an off-the-shelf logic gated CAR NK cell therapy) in patients with CD33 and/or FLT3 expressing blood cancers, including AML and MDS.
To learn if ASTX727 given alone or in combination with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) can help to control certain types of hematological neoplasms (blood-based cancers) after a stem cell transplant.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether a novel decision support tool called PRIME (Preference Reporting to Improve Management and Experience), which combines values-elicitation with tailored feedback to patients and providers, improves patient-reported values-concordance of initial treatment decisions compared to usual care.
To observe the effect of stem cell infusion on the development of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in patients with malignant hematologic diseases after allogeneic peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT)
Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (alloHSCT) represents the only curative option for many patients diagnosed with various hematologic neoplasms. Procedure-related morbidity and mortality pose challenges to long-term outcomes and quality of life, especially among patients who develop chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). There is a gap in healthcare that comprehensively addresses the specific needs of these patients. Physical therapy as an adjuvant treatment, through therapeutic exercise involving muscle strength and cardiorespiratory endurance, has shown positive influences on health markers and serves as a strong medical ally in similar profiles. Although these strategies could be reproducible and potentially beneficial for cGVHD patients, research has been limited to date, with the role of physical therapy possibly underutilized in this field. Justification: Unaddressed medical gap with no rigorously scientific responses specific to cGVHD. Objectives: This project aims to conduct the first randomized clinical trial from a physical therapy perspective as an adjuvant treatment for patients undergoing alloHSCT diagnosed with cGVHD.
