Filter by:This study tests the clinical outcomes of a preparative regimen of fludarabine (FLU), anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)/or Campath, and melphalan; followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and a post transplant regimen of Cyclosporin A (CsA) in patients with immunologic or histiocytic disorders. The researchers hypothesize that this regimen will have a positive effect on post transplant engraftment and the incidence of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). Patients will be randomized biologically into one of 3 arms based upon donor availability: (a) human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotypic matched sibling donor, (b) HLA phenotypic matched unrelated peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donor, (c) two HLA 0-2 antigen mismatched unrelated cord blood donors (double cord).
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effect of IgPro10 on the prevention of serious bacterial infections in patients with primary immunodeficiency. As secondary endpoints the rate of overall infections, the tolerability and safety of IgPro10 are studied. A part of the patients are participating in a pharmacokinetic substudy.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effect of IVIG-F10 on the prevention of serious bacterial infections in patients with primary immunodeficiency. As secondary endpoints the rate of overall infections, the tolerability and safety of IVIG-F10 are studied.
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% TVR (Triple Virally Reduced) Solution in subjects with primary immunodeficiency (PID) manifesting as hypo- or agammaglobulinemia. Subjects are treated every 21 days and receive a total of 12 infusions: for the first 3 infusions subjects receive GAMMAGARD S/D to ensure a steady-state and to acquire data with a licensed product; for the remaining 9 infusions subjects receive IGIV, 10% TVR Solution.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% (IGIV 10%) in subjects with primary immunodeficiency disorders.
Treatment for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is a medical emergency. A stem cell transplant (immature blood cells that can make other blood cells) from a (MSD) matched sibling donor (brother or sister who is a "match" for your child's immune (HLA) type), usually results in complete correction of immune function. However, most patients lack a matched sibling donor, requiring the use of an alternate donor source. Transplantation of cells from haploidentical family donors (typically parents) has resulted in immune system correction in the majority of SCID individuals. However, only 65-80% of patients survive greater than one year after this procedure. Failure results from life-threatening infections, graft versus host disease (GvHD) or post-transplant treatment-related effects. Also, for patients that survive beyond one year, B-cell (type of blood cell that fights infection) and natural killer cell function (cell that attacks infections and cancer cells) frequently fail to work, resulting in the need for long-term treatment with intravenous gamma-globulin (IVIg). In this study, in an effort to restore the overall cell function in patients with SCID, researchers will use a highly purified CD133+ hematopoietic cell graft (stem cell transplant without many mature donor white cells, called T-cells) obtained via use of the Miltenyi CliniMACS device, a device not FDA approved.
To determine whether a regimen of single dose nevirapine combined with either 4 or 7 days of Combivir®, compared to a regimen of single dose nevirapine, for the prevention of mother to child transmission can reduce the rate of development of drug resistant mutations of HIV-1, in HIV-1 infected pregnant women, who have not received antiretroviral therapy previously.
To determine the response to treatment with NVP, ZDV and 3TC in HIV positive women, who previously received NVP for the prevention of mother to child transmission.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of etravirine, administered as part of an individually optimized antiretroviral therapy (ART), in human immunodeficiency virus Type 1 (HIV-1) infected participants.
This study will explore screening for immunodeficiency diseases (diseases that cause problems in fighting infections). There is no method at present to screen all babies at birth for immunodeficiency. However, babies with low numbers of T-cells-an important type of immune system cell-may be found by studying T-cell products called TRECs (T-cell receptor excision circles). This study will: - Collect samples from children with several different immunodeficiencies to find out which disorders can be found by screening dried blood spots for TRECs. - Try to develop screening tests based on other kinds of material derived from dried blood spots. Children with primary immunodeficiency and low numbers of T cells who have not had a bone marrow transplant may be eligible for this study. Participating children donate up to 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of blood. The sample may be collected when the child is having other blood tests. The liquid blood is analyzed to determine the number of T cells, and the rest of the blood is used to make dried blood spots on filter paper. The blood spots are used to develop screening tests for immunodeficiency. The blood spots and data about the child's age, diagnosis, and current medicines will be kept coded by diagnosis and a code number instead of the child's name.
