Filter by:Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant involves taking blood stem cells from a donor and giving them to a recipient. The transplants are used to treat certain diseases and cancers. Researchers want to see if the transplant can treat VEXAS Syndrome. Objective: To see if stem cell transplants can be successfully performed in people with VEXAS and even improve the disease. Eligibility: People ages 18-75 who have VEXAS Syndrome that has caused significant health problems and standard treatment either has not worked or is not available. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical review Blood and urine tests Heart and lung function tests Bone marrow biopsy Participants will have a chest x-ray. They will have an imaging scan of the head, chest, abdomen, pelvis, and sinus. They will have a bone density scan. They will have a dental exam and eye exam. They will meet with specialists. They will repeat some screening tests. Participants will be admitted to the NIH hospital. They have a central venous catheter put into a vein in the chest or neck. They will receive drugs to prepare their bone marrow for the transplant. They may have total body irradiation. They will receive the donor stem cells through the catheter. They will get other drugs to prevent complications and infections. After discharge, they must stay in the DC area for 3 months for weekly study visits. Participants will have study visits 30, 60, 100, 180, 210, 240, 300, and 360 days later. After that, they will have yearly visits for 2 years and then be contacted yearly by phone....
This is a 26-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. We will enroll patients with aMCI or mild AD. All patients will receive 2 weeks of tDCS (5 sessions per week, 10 sessions in total) during the first 2 weeks of the study, and will also be allocated randomly to either of 4 treatment groups for 24 weeks: (1) Dose A group; (2) Dose B group; (3) Dose C group; (4) placebo group. We will assess the patients every 8 weeks during the treatment period (weeks 0, 10, 18, and 26). We hypothesize that augmentation with certain dose of DAOIB will yield better effect than tDCS alone in improving the cognitive function, global functioning and quality of life in patients with aMCI or mild AD.
The goal of this study is to learn if giving cemiplimab and vidutolimod together could be effective in treating advanced cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How many participants' cancers respond to vidutolimod together with cemiplimab? - Is vidutolimod together with cemiplimab safe and well-tolerated? - How well does vidutolimod together with cemiplimab treat participants' cancer? Participants will receive trial treatment for up to 2 years. 30 days after stopping treatment, participants will have a follow-up visit. After that visit, the trial staff will continue to follow up with participants about every 3 months, until the trial ends.
Recent guidelines for the management of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) recommend against the routine use of thrombus aspiration (TA) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) (Class III indication). Yet, so far, there is limited data regarding its role STEMI patients with heavy thrombus burden (TB). The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effects of manual TA and PCI in comparison to conventional PCI alone in a real-life clinical trial among heavy TB STEMI patients undergoing PPCI.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of EHP-101 in adult subjects with Relapsing Forms of Multiple Sclerosis (RMS).
This clinical trial is looking at two new vaccines called ChAdOx1-MAGEA3-NYESO, MVA-MAGEA3 and MVA-NYESO given with patients' standard of care treatment (chemotherapy and an immune checkpoint inhibitor).
This study evaluates if blood tests can detect changes in disease status during treatment for stage IV breast cancer. Information from this study may help researchers learn more about metastatic breast cancer and how to optimize treatment.
This phase II trial studies the effect of avelumab, gemcitabine and carboplatin before surgery compared with surgery alone in treating patients with muscle invasive bladder or upper urinary tract cancer who are not able to receive cisplatin therapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving avelumab together with gemcitabine and carboplatin before surgery may work better in lowering the chance of muscle invasive urinary tract cancer growing or spreading, in patients who cannot receive cisplatin therapy compared to surgery alone.
Lung involvement in Sjögren's syndrome is common and causes reduced quality of life and increased mortality. Sjögren's syndrome-related lung diseases (SS-RLD) are classified and treated as the primary lung diseases they resemble. Whether this approach is optimal has not been evaluated thoroughly. A critical gap in knowledge is knowing whether SS-RLDs have a unique clinical course and response to therapy. Given the underlying immune system dysfunction in Sjögren's syndrome, the investigators hypothesize that patients with SS-RLD will be more likely to respond to immunosuppressive therapy than patients with the matching primary lung disease. To address this hypothesis, the investigators will prospectively screen for Sjogren's syndrome in patients presenting to pulmonary clinics and compare the clinical course and response to therapy in Sjogren's syndrome positive and negative patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CAR T cell treatment targeting TRBC1 in patients with relapsed or refractory TRBC1 positive T-cell hematological maliganacies
