Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find the number of natural killer (NK) cells from non-HLA matched donors that can be safely infused into patients with cancer. NK cells are a form of lymphocytes that defend against cancer cells. NK cells in cancer patients do not work well to fight cancer. In this study, the NK cells are being donated by healthy individuals without cancer who are not "matched" by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes to patients. After receiving these NK cells, patients may also be given a drug called ALT803. ALT803 is a protein that keeps NK cells alive, helps them grow in number and supports their cancer-fighting characteristics. HLA-unmatched NK cell infusion is investigational (experimental) because the process has not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The aim of the study is to characterize the clinical manifestations of ALMS within the ciliopathies to prevent complications and determine preventive and therapeutic targets. The investigators believe that the clinical consequences of mutations in the gene result ALMS1 unprecedented protests and the ALMS study should help to be informed, not only about the understanding and decision support other ciliopathies, but also about some common diseases, as some physiopathogenic roads could be common; the rare disease being exacerbated a model of the channel concerned. Secondarily, the clinical data generated by this project will also be used as part of basic research (eg comparison with results in animal models, use of human cells for in vitro studies or transcriptomic ....) (which will be a secondary upgrading to this work).
This study is testing the effectiveness of "dry needling" for pain management and on muscle strength and leg function for those with knee pain. Dry needling consists of small, monofilament needles that are administered directly into the tissue and manipulated to make the muscle relax for pain relief. This technique is used to treat dysfunctions in skeletal muscle and connective tissue to help diminish pain, reduce impairments of body structure and restore function.
22q11.2 microdeletion seems the prenatally under-diagnosed . Indeed , there is a mismatch between the series on the heart rate of 22q11.2 antenatal 84% against 30% in the adult series despite a perinatal mortality of 16% suggesting opportunities for improvement in the prenatal diagnosis of fetus with a microdeletion 22q11.2 , especially without heart disease
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ipilimumab when given together with decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ipilimumab and decitabine may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia.
This studies´ objective is to describe how different PEEP levels affect dead space measured by Bohr´s formula.
The purpose is to build up a data observatory of individuals with thoracic pain evoking acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The aim is the characterization of this population of patients consulting at emergency department, the evaluation of therapeutic strategies with regard to guidelines and the becoming of patients including severe complications and mortality.
The investigators examined the effects of 4-week dietary protein intake in mixed meals at two levels of protein amount on whole body glucose metabolisms in older adults with metabolic syndrome.
Infantile Spasms syndrome (ISs) is a characterized by epileptic spasms occurring in clusters with an onset in the first year of life. West syndrome represents a subset of ISs that associates spasms in clusters, a hypsarrhythmia EEG pattern and a developmental arrest or regression. Aetiology of ISs is widely heterogeneous including many genetic causes. Many patients, however, remain without etiological diagnosis, which is critical for prognostic purpose and genetic counselling. In the present study, the investigators performed genetic screening of 73 patients with different types of ISs by array-CGH and molecular analysis of 5 genes: CDKL5, STXBP1, KCNQ2, and GRIN2A, whose mutations cause different types of epileptic encephalopathies, including ISs, as well as MAGI2, which was suggested to be related to a subset of ISs.
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a genetic encephalopathy and the typical form is caused by mutations in the gene MECP2. It is a genetically heterogeneous pathology. CDKL5 and FOXG1 have been recently discovered being involved in other forms of RTT. However, at least 5% of typical forms and more other atypical forms are not linked to any of 3 genes known to be involved in the disease. The purpose of this study is to identify new genes involved in molecular etiology of typical and atypical forms of RTT.
