Filter by:In this project, the investigators intend to start a prospective registry for patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia-negative ALL from 16 years old and above in participating centers, provided that all patients will be treated with the same regimen (a pediatric regimen BFM-based incorporating peg-asparaginase). All diagnostic/follow-up (after induction and consolidation blocks) samples will be centrally biobanked at Instituto do Cancer do Estado de Sao Paulo. The main goal of this study is to examine whether the implementation of a pediatric protocol under a prospective registry can increase event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of newly diagnosed patients in the participating centers.
Acute leukemia (AL) is the most common cancer in children. Despite the optimization of chemotherapy treatments and the development of supportive care, a certain number of LAs relapse and/or progress to death of the child. It therefore seems essential to try to better understand the physiopathology and the mechanisms of resistance to treatment of these diseases.
This open-label, single arm Phase I trial aims to determine the safety and tolerability of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor-expressing (CAR) T cells (UCD19 CAR T) in adults B-ALL that are in first complete remission with minimal residual disease (MRD) positivity. This trial will enroll 10 patients for apheresis and treatment with lymphodepleting chemotherapy followed by UCD19 CAR T cell infusion. Patients will be assessed for dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) (within 42 days after CAR T infusion), duration of B cell aplasia, overall response rate (at 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-months), and overall survival and event free survival (at 12- and 24- months) post UCD19 CAR T infusion.
Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children. About 90% of children and young adults who are treated for ALL can now be cured. But if the disease comes back, the survival rate drops to less than 50%. Better treatments are needed for ALL relapses. Objective: To test chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy. CARs are genetically modified cells created from each patient s own blood cells. his trial will use a new type of CAR T-cell that is targeting both CD19 and CD22 at the same time. CD19 and CD22 are proteins found on the surface of most types of ALL. Eligibility: People aged 3 to 39 with ALL or related B-cell lymphoma that has not been cured by standard therapy. Design: Participants will be screened. This will include: Physical exam Blood and urine tests Tests of their lung and heart function Imaging scans Bone marrow biopsy. A large needle will be inserted into the body to draw some tissues from the interior of a bone. Lumbar puncture. A needle will be inserted into the lower back to draw fluid from the area around the spinal cord. Participants will undergo apheresis. Their blood will circulate through a machine that separates blood into different parts. The portion containing T cells will be collected; the remaining cells and fluids will be returned to the body. The T cells will be changed in a laboratory to make them better at fighting cancer cells. Participants will receive chemotherapy starting 4 or 5 days before the CAR treatment. Participants will be admitted to the hospital. Their own modified T cells will be returned to their body. Participants will visit the clinic 2 times a week for 28 days after treatment. Follow-up will continue for 15 years....
PURPOSE: To evaluate the prevalence and prognostic value of sarcopenia in patients diagnosed with hematological cancer diseases.
PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of the disease and HSCT on muscle dysfunction and to investigate the prognostic role of muscle dysfunction at critical decision points in patients with hematological diseases referred to hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT: Patients diagnosed with malignant hematological diseases who are referred to myeloablative HSCT, to a myeloablative "reduced toxicity conditioning" regime with Fludarabine and Treosulfane (FluTreo) or to non-myeloablative HSCT.
To evaluate if hyper-fractionated TBI or TMLI followed by Treg/Tcon adoptive immunotherapy improve cGvHD/disease free survival after allogeneic HSCT in patients affected by high-risk acute leukemias or other hematologic malignancy where HSCT is indicated.
This is a multi-center, phase 2A exploratory study of feasibility and effectiveness of Inotuzumab Ozagomicin in adult patients with Acute Lymphoid Leukemia (ALL) with positive minimal residual disease before any hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The study is divided in two cohorts; cohort 1 will enroll 38 Ph+ patients, cohort 2 will enroll 38 Ph- patients, as defined with statistical analysis. The two cohorts will have the same treatment, with the exception of short term and long term maintenance.
Background: B-cell leukemias and lymphomas are cancers that are often difficult to treat. The primary objective of this study is to determine the ability to take a patient's own cells (T lymphocytes) and grow them in the laboratory with the CD19/CD22-CAR receptor gene through a process called 'lentiviral transduction (also considered gene therapy) and growing them to large numbers to use as a treatment for hematologic cancers in children and young adults.. Researchers want to see if giving modified CD19/CD22-CAR T cells to people with these cancers can attack cancer cells. In addition, the safety of giving these gene modified cells to humans will be tested at different cell doses. Additional objectives are to determine if this therapy can cause regression of B cell cancers and to measure if the gene modified cells survive in patients blood. Objective: To study the safety and effects of giving CD19/CD22-CAR T cells to children and young adults with B-cell cancer. Eligibility: People ages 3-39 with certain cancers that have not been cured by standard therapy. Their cancer tissue must express the CD19 protein. Design: A sample of participants blood or bone marrow will be sent to NIH and tested for leukemia. Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Urine and blood tests (including for HIV) Heart and eye tests Neurologic assessment and symptom checklist. Scans, bone marrow biopsy, and/or spinal tap Some participants will have lung tests. Participants will repeat these tests throughout the study and follow-up. Participants will have leukapheresis. Blood will be drawn from a plastic tube (IV) or needle in one arm then go through a machine that removes lymphocytes. The remaining blood will be returned to the participant s other arm. Participants will stay in the hospital about 2 weeks. There they will get: Two chemotherapy drugs by IV Their changed cells by IV Standard drugs for side effects Participants will have frequent follow-up visits for 1 year, then 5 visits for the next 4 years. Then they will answer questions and have blood tests every year for 15 years. ...
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of G-CSF combination with GM-CSF on prevention and treatment of infection in children with malignant tumor.
