Filter by:- Goal: This study is a randomized phase II interventional study. The purpose of this study is to see if addition of oral rifaximin tablets during allogeneic stem cell transplant can improve the quality of gut microbiome and reduce chances of death, infections and graft versus host disease (GVHD) post-transplant. - The study objectives are as follows: - Primary Objective: To determine the impact of rifaximin on gut microbial diversity and compare it with controls. - Secondary Objectives: a. To determine non-relapse mortality at 1-year post transplant in patients who receive peri-transplant transplant rifaximin and compare it with controls. - b. To compare the incidence of severe GVHD in patients who receive peri-transplant rifaximin with the controls. - c. To determine impact of gut decontamination with rifaximin on incidence of MDR sepsis and usage of higher antibiotics (e.g. Carbapenems, colistin, tigecycline, ceftazidime avibactum and ceftriaxone-sulbactam EDTA) in first 6 months post BMT. - d. To determine the impact of rifaximin induced gut manipulation on immune reconstitution, T cell repertoire post-transplant and cytokine profile. - Exploratory objective: To use single cell transcriptomics (SCT) to identify immune cell profile in gut biopsies post allogeneic stem cell transplant whenever biopsy is done, to correlate the impact of microbiome on gut immunity. - Intervention: Tab Rifaximin 200 mg will be given orally twice daily from day -8 to day +60 of allogeneic stem cell transplant in acute leukemia patients. This will be in addition to standard of care post-transplant treatment. - Comparator Agent: Standard of care treatment including standard anti GVHD measures, antibiotic support and transfusions as needed.
Diagnosing acute appendicitis in children is still a challenge even for experienced clinicians. Failure to recognize this acute condition can result in perforation, with consequent peritonitis, or misdiagnosis can result in negative appendectomies. C-reactive protein in blood can be elavated in children with acute appendicitis. The aim of this research is to compare the diagnostic value of C-reactive protein from the blood and saliva of children with acute appendicitis and to prove wheter the analysis of biomarker from saliva as a minimally invasive procedure can be sufficient for diagnosis.
This study is an open, prospective, single-center, single-arm study expanded based on the study of NCT03412409.The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the transplantation efficacy of the RIC conditioning regimen in elderly patients receiving the transplantation of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cells. Elderly patients are defined as ≥55 years of age; High comorbidity is defined as an HCT-CI score ≥3.Primary endpoint is 1-year LFS. Secondary endpoints are 1-year OS and 1-year TRM, Other indicators to be assessed in this study include acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, CMV activation, EBV activation, engraftment.
To evaluate Diagnostic accuracy of Non-contrast CT in correlation with ultrasound in diagnosis of acute appendicitis in adults
The leukaemias are a heterogeneous group of blood cancers, Acute leukaemia (AL) is caused by malignant proliferation of blood cells arrested at an immature stage of development, They are very aggressive diseases that run a rapidly fatal course if not promptly diagnosed and appropriately treated. Misdiagnosis is very common with delay in diagnosis and prompt treatment being the causes of high morbidity and mortality in acute leukaemias. Although with the continuous improvement of clinical and laboratory diagnosis and treatment methods, the prognosis of AML has been significantly improved, but there are still about 70% of patients who cannot survive more than 5 years after diagnosis The activity of miRNAs in tumors is regulated by the same alterations affecting protein-coding genes, such as chromosomal rearrangements, genomic amplifications or deletions or mutations, abnormal transcriptional control, dysregulation of epigenetic changes and defects in the biogenesis machinery A typical chromosomal rearrangement is a chromosomal translocation, especially in hematological malignancies, in which it promotes tumor development and progression by the promoter exchange or by the creation of chimeric genes translated as fusion proteins. In Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients with myeloid/lymphoid leukemia gene (or mixed-lineage leukemia, MLL) rearrangement, by large-scale genome-wide microarray analysis, it was demonstrated that among 48 selected miRNAs, 47 of them are increased
This is a phase Ib/II clinical study that has two phases. In phase Ib, the safety evaluation of the extract of Petiveria alliacea (Esperanza) will be carried out in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal tumors (colon, pancreas, stomach, and biliary tract) and patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed acute leukemia. In phase IIb, the safety will continue to be evaluated, and the efficacy of the Esperanza extract will be explored in combination with chemotherapy in patients with metastatic gastrointestinal tumors (colon, pancreas, stomach, and biliary tract) with newly diagnosed acute leukemias and relapses.
The aim of the study is to determine the importance and impact of resistive breathing techniques versus inspiratory hold techniques in patients with chronic bronchitis and specially to find out if there are any changes seen in results measured via the incentive spirometer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) of JNJ-75276617 in combination with a conventional chemotherapy backbone in pediatric and young adult participants with relapsed/refractory acute leukemia harboring histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A1 ([KMT2A1], nucleophosmin 1 gene (NPM1), or nucleoporin alterations in Part 1 (Dose Escalation) and to further evaluate safety at the RP2D(s) of JNJ-75276617 in combination with chemotherapy in pediatric and young adult participants with relapsed/refractory acute leukemia harboring KMT2A1, NPM1, or nucleoporin alterations and safety at the RP2D(s) of JNJ-75276617 as monotherapy in a select low burden of disease cohort in Part 2 (Dose Expansion).
MiRNAs are noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that drive post-transcriptional negative regulation of gene expression by promoting the degradation or translational blockade of their target mRNAs. MiRNAs are 21-24-nucleotide-long RNA molecules that are processed from longer RNA precursors (pri-miRNAs) , and either the 5' or the 3' strand of the mature miRNA duplex is loaded into the Argonaute (AGO) family of proteins to form a miRNA-induced silencing complex (miRISC) When bound to AGO proteins, mature miRNAs destabilize or inhibit the translation of partially complementary target mRNAsMiRNA-124 has been shown to be a tumor suppressor, and a decrease in its expression level is typical of tumors of various localization, but there is no evidence of the role of miRNA-124 in the development of NHL . There are a number of studies reflecting the involvement of miRNA-124 in hematopoiesis. Liu et al. showed that miRNA-124 regulates Tip110 that is involved in the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cellsThe let-7 family has been shown to influence the pathogenesis of a variety of hematological malignancies through the changing expression of a number of oncogenic pathways, particularly those related with MYC and that might affect hematopoietic carcinogenesis through the modulation of inflammatory pathways
