Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 3 multiple doses of VIT-2763 as measured by the reduction in red blood cell (RBC) transfusion burden from Week 13 to Week 24, to identify the most efficacious and safe dose.
This clinical trial studies the effect of pre-transplant immunosuppression (PTIS) and donor stem cell transplant in treating patients with severe blood diseases (hemoglobinopathies). PTIS helps prepare the body for the transplant and lowers the risk of developing graft versus host disease (GVHD). Hematopoietic cells are found in the bone marrow and produce blood cells. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) injects healthy hematopoietic cells into the body to support blood cell production. PTIS and HCT may help to control severe hemoglobinopathies.
This research study is being done to assess the safety and effectiveness of isoquercetin to reduce levels of soluble P-Selectin in patients with sickle cell disease. Isoquercetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid-or vitamin. You will find quercetin and isoquercetin in fruits and vegetables. The names of the study drug involved in this study are/is: - Isoquercetin
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of SLN124 for the treatment of non-transfusion-dependent (NTD) β-thalassaemia and low risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of SP-420 and it's efficacy in terms of lowering iron in subjects with Beta-thalassemia or other rare anemias who need regular blood transfusions.
The CENTAurus trial is a prospective clinical study designed to address systematically some of the relevant endocrine complications in an iron overloaded thalassemic population, primary objective being the assessment of the effect of deferasirox therapy on glucose metabolism/homeostasis. Other endocrine parameters complementary or supportive to the primary objective will be assessed and analyzed during this study. A number of lab parameters related to other axes of the endocrine system will be collected and analyzed.
The design of the study incorporates the following features: 1. This is a phase II study to determine the safety and therapeutic potential of a new transplant approach (disease-free survival, graft versus myeloma effect) and to evaluate its toxicity profile (immediate toxicity, graft-versus-host disease, graft rejection, mortality) in a patient population with severe congenital anemias. 2. The patient cohort to be studied: Those patients with severe sickle cell disease and thalassemia who have risk factors for high mortality and morbidity related to their disease 3. Transplant Conditioning Regimen - Immunosuppression without myeloablation: Patients will receive conditioning sufficient to allow donor lympho-hematopoietic engraftment without complete marrow ablation. If the graft is rejected, the patient will reconstitute autologous marrow function. We will use a combination of low dose irradiation, Alemtuzumab (Campath®), and sirolimus. 4. Peripheral blood hematopoietic progenitor cell (PBPC) transplant: An unmanipulated peripheral blood stem cell collection from a filgrastim (G-CSF) stimulated HLA-matched donor should improve the chance of engraftment because of the high stem cell dose (5 x 106/kg CD34+ cells) and the presence of donor lymphocytes. To reduce the risk of GVHD, patients will receive sirolimus before and after the transplant. The sirolimus will be tapered as necessary to minimize any graft versus host disease while still maintaining adequate chimerism.
This is an open label, single arm, and multicenter study. The study will include the following phases. A screening phase which lasts for 4 weeks to determine patient eligibility. This phase will be followed by a 24 week Open label treatment phase. The study treatment is defined as deferasirox 20mg/kg BID 9Twice a day). Serum Ferritin Levels and MRI (Magmetic Resonance Imaging) LIC (Liver Iron Concentration) will be measured to evaluate the response to BID.
The purpose of this open-label study is to assess liver iron concentration using MRI imaging in subjects with beta-thalassemia when administered with either SPD602 or deferasirox for the treatment of chronic transfusional iron overload.
To characterize the PK of deferasirox in pediatric β-thalassemia major patients aged from 2 to less than 6 years old, when administrated with a fixed starting dose of 20 mg/kg/day.
